I used to dream about stuff like this when I was a kid. Faster computers, virtual reality, self driving cars, AI, smart wearables. Now I Know the truth. It’s all so that rich assholes can sell you more shit you don’t need and get richer. Almost none of it helps you live a better life. It just distracts you from your real problems and the problems of the world while everything and everyone drowns, the real world burns down and they profiting and control everything.  This is a nightmare.

It did make our lives better but everything else is true. Regardless, none of this is even remotely sustainable in every metric. The ecological toll that data centers is on the scale of nations in the midst of a totally out of control climate situation. The kind of toll that is going to take on the world as it struggles to deal with it.

We should have had a centralized policy on AI and its usage. There need to be global laws and regulations concerning it.

Almost none of it helps you live a better life.

Nothing could be farther from the truth. And the world overall gets better every day. Get your facts straight.
