Is my brain just not working or does that first sentence make no sense?

“that seem to think invasion of privacy is cool to police thought crime”

What? (I’m not disagreeing with you, based on the rest and what I think you’re saying, just to be clear)

rational*

Out of all instances to put on a sticker… that’s not a good choice. Fuck lemmy.world.

“the delusion that they alone is smart enough”

are*

It very weird when an otherwise logical comment has such a dumb error.

Do you not read what you write?

I got my first computer at 15, in 2005, and even then they were very clearly bad just from my newbie experience and seeing forums posts. The word itself is so tainted for me because of them. One of the companies that “enshittified” way ahead of the curve.

You’re mistaking the bubble for the technology itself. AI can be and is used to good things, but the bubble is about the bad stuff. The whole idea of a bubble like this is that we over inflated something too quickly and too much to a point where it isn’t a good stable growth and the only way to stop that is for the bubble to burst. In modern-ish society there just won’t be a letting out of “air” to stabilise the bubble, there won’t even be a slowing of filling it until it bursts. When everything is about infinite growth and something new comes along we’ll always jump on that pump and fill the bubble as rapidly as we can and completely ignore any long term plan and consequences, because money and power.

TIL swingeing is a word, and with a very separate meaning from swinging. It just looks weird and feels like swinging should be the actual correct one but that spelling seems to be pretty specifically for the polygamous sex stuff.
