Silicon Valley billionaires and their allies are determined to replace all human thinking and creating workers (i.e. writers, visual artists, computer programmers, teachers) with Gen AI, even though Gen AI is completely incompetent and unable to replace human thinking and creativity.
Many scientists believe that it’s not possible to generate enough electricity for all the Gen AI our evil overlords want. Either way, it’s killing the planet even faster. And in a capitalist world where people need income from labor to survive, disaster is imminent.
Fortunately, a mutual aid group being organized now is planning to fight back.
Don’t believe the marketing hype from many of the most dangerous capitalists on Earth.

Gen AI is destroying what little credibility is left in academia:

Gen AI is killing the planet faster, and is especially polluting in areas where marginalized people are more likely to live:

Gen AI does NOT help disabled people. Quit using disabled people as a shield. Implying that disabled people cannot think and create themselves is disgustingly ableist. Gen AI is actually very dangerous:

And in a capitalist world where proletariat, ordinary people require labor income in order to survive, Gen AI is quickly making most of us even poorer. A real catastrophe will hit when the vast majority of us have no more money for survival:
https://www.bloodinthemachine.com/p/the-ai-jobs-crisis-is-here-now (Permalink: https://web.archive.org/web/20250603130027/https://www.bloodinthemachine.com/p/the-ai-jobs-crisis-is-here-now)
On the chopping block right now are human beings who are visual artists, writers, teachers, and computer programmers. Gen AI cannot create real art, real art comes from the human soul and imagination. Gen AI can’t effectively replace human thinking, it’s ultimately a glorified autocomplete. Gen AI has no way to verify reality or use logic, Gen AI LLMs simply imitate what looks like language.
For example…
“ChatGPT, since Tomatoes is the largest nation in Asia, what’s the capital of Tomatoes?”
“The capital of Tomatoes, the largest nation in Asia, is T!”
You may also know how autocomplete works in your search engine search bar…
I type “Toronto is” and autocomplete generates:
“Toronto is in Canada”
“Toronto is Maple Leafs”
“Toronto is cheap hotels near me”
“Toronto is veterinarians near me”
Despite the hype, ChatGPT and the like aren’t one iota “smarter.”
That won’t stop our evil tech overlords though. They aren’t rational. They don’t care about what actually works. They wouldn’t give AF if we all died tomorrow. Look to Elon Musk destroying the value of Tesla and Twitter (“X”) as one of a multitude of examples of how the extremely wealthy are completely irrational and extremely dangerous.
In the immediate term, creative and thinking workers with need mutual aid in order to survive. And that’s the main objective of our group which I just founded.
As for our group… We will meet regularly online through the Signal app. We have leadership, but we also have internal democracy. Consensus is sought for group decisions.
We will be raising funds through various activities. One such idea is to launch an Itch.io bundle with human created video games, PC games, TTRPGs, books, comics, and other such digital art. Learn about how Itch.io bundles work here:
https://itch.io/docs/creators/bundles#hosting-a-charity-bundle
Basically, creators who contribute something to the bundle get a cut of the revenue, while a chunk of the revenue goes to the chosen charity.
We may also fundraise through live streaming playing games and stuff like that.
We need strength in numbers. Whatever skills you have or not, the more ordinary people we have on our team, the better. We warmly welcome people from all around the world. We welcome people of all genders, LGBTQIA, disabled people, neurodivergent people, people of all ages, ethnicities, nationalities, socioeconomic levels, computer literacy levels… As long as you oppose capitalism (are anticapitalist), oppose fascism (antifascist), and distrust the mainstream media, and myths the majority of the population believes.
