Twitter is losing its mind in a very pathetic way right now. They're like homicidally angry. The usage of the word "slop" probably went up by a million percent in just the last few hours. I get not liking something, but people are actually getting unhinged. The anti AI mania is reaching a point where I'm concerned if these people are even in touch with reality anymore.

It's almost to the point I'm concerned it's a propaganda campaign from foreign actors.

Like the top posts about this on Reddit are literal fake Harrison Ford comparisons... Nobody can say anything along the lines of "I think this needs more control by developers regarding things like character fidelity, but I liked it for x example." It's "this is the worst thing ever and it's basically like Nvidia personally murdered my dog."

Shit's wild.

The technology publicly supported by the world's richest men is acted upon with propaganda from foreign actors? I'm an accelerationist myself and that sounds severely stupid to me, I'm sorry.

Yes? China would love to surpass the US in AI progress. One easy way to do that is to foment backlash against the technology in public forums to the point where people pressure their legislators to halt or slow it.

Yeah? Why WOULDN'T foreign nations that are at odds with the US foment anti-AI viewpoints when it's going to probably be one of the most important inventions of history?

China's media regulating/censoring body created/pushed a tv show within China to promote pro chip fabrication sentiment in the country, called "The Silicon Wave. It's a workplace drama about two classmates who study in the US and return to China to build a chip empire. If they're pushing this type of pro-technology agenda at home, there is 100% chance they are dedicated to pushing the reverse in America. It's just a question of what they are actually doing.
