Yuli-Ban actually puts effort into what they want to say, which easily makes them worth more than a thousand post ChatGPT users here, who only have their shower thoughts and Terminator gifs to offer.
No. Everyone is on a scale of value and no one is worth that much more than everyone else. Thats that capitalist propaganda.
And on that scale of value, people who choose to try and apply effort will always be worth more than people who do not. Overthrowing Capitalism would not change that, and if your only reason to do so is to prevent people from calling you out on your short attention span, then you're every bit the caricature that conservatives flog when they argue against leftist social programs and reforms.
Calm yourself boy, I already said theyre on a scale so not sure why youre suddenly repeating my point about people havign different values. As far as your hard work theory, so you are just lucky and born a hard worker and lazy pieces of shit are unlucky?
And now you're swinging at the dark. Let's refocus.
You dismissed the OP as the propagator of another shitty, random blog. I am telling you that Yuli-Ban is one of the better posters on this subreddit and that it would be much poorer without them. That's all I wanted to say. Take it as you will.
Swinging in the dark? Brother you brought up leftist social programs and reforms. Stay in your lane and preferably away from me. Have a good day.
And you brought up capitalist propaganda in a conversation that had nothing to do with economics…
So let’s call it even. :)
It IS capitalist propaganda. The idea that there are these great leaders of men: thats why ceos deserve 5000 times what you make /s
Can't say I'm interested in defending CEO worship, so no argument there. The Zuckerbergs, Bezoses and Musks of the world are not our friends.
Yea the title alone says a whole bunch of nothing. “Everyone is wrong except me”
"While much of this will likely remain as part of purely individualized fantasy worlds never meant to be shared, it is foolish to claim that nothing will be shared and that everyone will retreat into their own fantasy worlds."
A post full-dive society would likely look a lot like the internet. Yes, people would have the option to retreat into their own fully personalized, virtual space like somebody can choose to play a single player video game. Many other people would opt to exist with others in like-minded communities. For every demographic, interest, opinion and sub-culture, a virtual world.
I see the equivalence you see in generative AI and molecular assembly as well. It hurts my head to think that one day we will have assigned as much value on a digitally sculpted/generated cups as we assign on physical cups today. This value shift will probably follow the physical -> digital/hybrid shifting of sentient beings.
To any brain (digital or physical), there's nothing "physical" anyway, we will just live in a different type of physical space where flying over mountains is allowed without the possibility of dying, where base reality's physical shenanigans don't bother us much. We already live in a preview of such a simulation painted by our brain for us. We just want to improve on that simulation eventually :)
Transhumanism will be widely adopted. In fact, it kind of already is. Preventative vaccines, many of us are required to take in the early stages of our lives is a good example of how it will be adopted.
If you take Kurzweil's predictions regarding nanobots, the concept doesn't seem nearly as invasive as say, cutting your skull open to put a nueral link in your brain.

It should be ban worthy to post these links to shitty random blogs of experts claiming to see what were all missing.
