Cause if everything is terrible and needs fixing nothing will get fixed. People get overwhelmed. Don’t stunt momentum in one area cause your cause is “even more important.” That isn’t how progress is made, but take the progress where it is happening and maybe later parlay it into the next thing.
If I came after golf (which consumes more water than data centres) with this kind of ferocity, you would think I had a screw loose. The arguments presented don’t make any goddamn sense. It’s an obvious moral panic.
Which sucks because we are being distracted from the ACTUAL harms that AI presents us. Please pull your head out. This is propaganda.
a person gets overwhelmed. people can specialize and take on multiple things, especially on the scale of civilizations. this is not a good response, i’m afraid.
I disagree and the lack of progress across all of these fronts at least makes me think it is part of the problem.
Very few people specialize in politics, so most of the “people” you are saying are capable really are just “persons” who are trying to people in their area and also make good decisions for the environment they live in but without becoming experts. Welcome to the majority of voters they have real lives.

thats a reasonable take. the ideal i spoke of doesn’t necessarily manifest does it
