It is anger. It's justifiable anger. I'm not sure about the nasty words part, but ok.

No the world isn't devils and angels; it's devils. Attempting to not be less devilish is the point.

Misguided idealism... now that's funny. Oh no I want things to be fair and good for the majority of all living things without it being taken off the backs of others! Yeah I'm the bad guy in this one all right.

No I can just not use it. It is not an integral part of any functions of my life or yours. It isn't "here" as much as its forced into our lives; not organically arriving like some tech panacea. It's was created with stolen data by companies too big to take accountability and you're just "OH WELL JUST USE IT I DON'T SEE A PROBLEM WITH IT CAUSE IT'S JUST HOW IT IS HURDUR". Good god, man...

How is it improving our lives?

The point, which you clearly miss at every turn, is that yes we create suffering in every aspect of modern life, but to strive to cause the least amount of suffering is the point.

Things connected to capitalism are bad. Full stop. There is no part of this system that provides ANYTHING but wealth to a small group of people. The way AI has been literally force-fed into our lives is proof that it is nothing but another tool of capitalism used to both create wealth from those with nothing and maintain control to keep that wealth coming. That's it. Any "advancements" all serve that idea while the people doing the advancing have no control over how those advances are used.

Look, I get it. You don't value art or the process of art. You don't value ownership of the self and what the self produces. A lot of you pro AI folks are like this, because whether your like it or not your lack of creativity, mind you likely a product of the very system cramming AI down your throat, devalues creativity. You jump at the next AI automated car from Tesla or you vibe code and see anything it produces as something YOU made... but you didn't. That picture up there was made by a countless number of artist's experiences mushed together in a machine and squeezed out like a turd and you guys are like "OH LOOK THIS IS MEANINGFUL". Like I said... pathetic.

Haha no.. it's a paraphrased quote wrongly attributed to Einstein.

The message is what makes it so ironic. I get it though... I'm surrounded by pro AI folks. You guys keep using a product designed with stolen data that uses an unreasonable amount of energy to continue virtue signaling on socials for views and engagement. Pathetic.

Never judge a fish by how well it climbs a tree.

Lol using AI for an anti capitalism post is hilarious!

Start looking for a different job and use the possibility of a new job as a bit of hope. You mention lack of experience, but also that you job is pretty complex which has to translate into gaining some kind of new, marketable skill.

Also, I'd talk to your partner and explain your feelings about your current employment. It isn't fair for them to be able to pursue their chosen career while you carry the burden of keeping the 2 of you afloat unless they contribute in some other meaningful way.

Thoughts like that require both a conscience and intelligence and 47 lacks both and more.

Why not both?

Do you also worry about the collapse of natural systems by preventing pollinators from doing their job?

The long game suicide, baby.

My Mondo's preferred way to wake me is to put all of the claws on one paw into my chin. Why do we allow this abuse?

Take North Korean propaganda, paint it red white and blue and give it a specific set of "freedoms" and you'll have any answer of "how". We're literally made to be this way. Even those of us with a "firing neuron" are a result of this propaganda, granted just not in the intended way. Drowning and understanding why we're drowning ends the same way.

I think this is accurate. We may be the most "intelligent" animal on this planet, but we're still animals. We've been pulled out of a natural order and forced into systems the worst of us came up with to keep said worst ones happy. At the exact same time we also have the capacity and potential to make this planet a habitable, utopia for all creatures, but those systems, man...

His diaper demands to be changed!

YEA I'M GONNA CONTINUE TO USE PLATFORMS AND TOOLS THAT EXPLOIT MY PRIVACY AND INFO FOR MONETARY GAIN WITHOUT QUESTION BECAUSE I'M A GOOD LITTLE CONSUMER

I recommend the failure horns from the Price is Right.

I'm almost through Chrono Trigger for the first time in 25ish years.
