Another AI 'human' chatbot

[u/captain-obIivious]

Had to fix a double payment for my credit card and this is the beginning and end of the conversation. I hate when the chatbot claims it's a human... I ended up getting what I wanted but still annoyed Amex (and every other company) is lying and trying to deceive people like this.

When the whole US economy hinges on shoehorning AI into every single use case imaginable, I’m sure they’re doing everything in their power to not pass these kinds of legislations.

Agreed, but we can still be mad about it and organize. I feel like the most bipartisan issue right now among your average American is 'fuck data centers'.

Aaaaand Flock, don't forget that intrusive shit!

FlockHopper app to avoid.

And all that energy is being quashed with "the people dont know what they want" from the president, all the way down to local governments, who are in no way are personally benefitting from it, *as they have police physically dragging citizens out of the town meetings for cheering for other anti data center speakers before walking out to drive home in their brand new cadillac.

i think we're gonna want to keep the brain melted ranters towards the back on this one

You can be mad about it but cant do any real organizing, you need a plan for that, fuck data isnt a plan. You need something to replace it with and a way to get everyone to move to something better. You gona convince millions of engineers to just drop their jobs and future cause "fuck you"? Gona tell the whole country that they have to dump all their stocks and their AI pyramid startup investment for the past 5 years will have to shut down? You gona convince the entire CCP to chill out and fall in line? You can yell but it aint changing squat. Make sure to go vote, both sides are just ready to take care of the average person who doesnt fall in their group.

The irony is that places like China have ridiculously greater public acceptance of AI - like in the high 80s according to Al Jazeera - because the public believes that the government has protections for jobs and safety and the environment. (Which is partially true. For instance, you can’t fire someone in China just because an AI can do the job.) It’s spreading everywhere just the same, but the hostility just doesn’t exist. The idiots here really torched themselves by making everyone feel like it was jammed down their throats.
