Much of our "entertainment" just assumes the legitimacy of government. Countless movies and series are packed with exciting government violence and criminality that is display as if it is always ethically evil actions of the monstrous to be stopped by the government heroically opposing it. This is pure propaganda and rather obvious when you think about it. It makes every actually freedom loving person a criminal and legitimate target for government violence. It sanctifies the massive initiation of force of government. It tries to portray government has all powerful and thankfully so. Even freedom loving people, even voluntaryists, spend an inordinate amount of time absorbing this messaging. Surely we can use our time more effectively toward actual freedom from government tyranny for ourselves and others!

Suspects are captured and tried not blown away on claimed suspicion. This is pure murder. And the claim of "narco-terrorist vessels" is pure speculation and rhetoric no responsible journalist would use.

all the big tech companies are doing insane dirty shit to us behind the scenes unfathomable evil is possible with ai tech for those with unlimited money and no rules https://vmfunc.re/blog/persona

The ad tech companies have built all the data gathering and profiling needed long ago. Government allowed this because it wanted the kind of total surveillance built for it that it was not legally allowed to build itself. Yes Big Data is better at using it now. Yes AI chat bots can fill in the blanks with much more of exactly what you think and care about. But you know what? Most people bleat they "have nothing to hide" and would much rather have the "convenience" than bother to do even the simplest things to regain any of their privacy.

my current (evolving) thoughts on open claw: it is very early, has a lot of pitfalls re: security and privacy, but is a taste of what is to come i think we can have a clean open source package like ...

I do some experiments with what I can run on my 4090 GPU. Some things are fine. Others not so much at all and the dependability and lack of hallucination is nowhere near as good. So I don't agree it is straightforward to get there with local AI. Currently I am dependent on open source models run through nano-gpt when I need heavier lift.

A Chinese team took an AI assistant with 430,000 lines of code that needed a $599 Mac Mini and 1GB of RAM… and rewrote the entire thing in Go so it could run on a $9.90 board with under 10MB of memo...

Not so fast. The costs for creating software with AI dependably is NOT going down. Cost per token is but many many more tokens are used that more than make up for it to use agentic systems. There are hard limits to scaling out of current LLM technology stack. Some of the new experimental optical chip stuff in the wings may fix some of that. But this basic approach does not scale indefinitely.

What the science, the doctor and the peer reviewed studies? Did you at least watch it before commenting??
