AI systems exist to reinforce and strengthen existing structures of power and violence. They are the wet dream of capitalists and fascists. Enormous physical infrastructure designed to convert capital into power, and back into capital. Those who control the infrastructure, control the people subject to it.

While it sways away from the initial thesis of how the use of LLMs could be detrimental to our very being and expression of identity - at least that's how I interpret what they're saying - it ends in a fantastic claim on how AI is a tool of the ruling class. Worth a read!

Reads like a communist hiding their power level or a liberal searching for a take on the enclosures actively happening this very moment that isn’t the fascist/libertarian one (“it’s different because it’s happening to me!”).
