A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I think that's realistically what we're going to have to deal with in our daily lives. The big spooky AI threat I feel like it's a distraction to keep us from looking at climate change, socio-economic inbalance, the rising boldness of bigotry. All things those people profit from.
It's funny that with all this tech that's supposed to increase human knowledge (at least from a positive pre-cyberpunk sci-fi-type mindset), it just ends up doing the opposite and confusing everyone to the point where people can't distinguish between what's real and what isn't.
