We gotta end citizens united, corporations and weapons manufacturers are incentivized to lobby congress and enable wars and starvation abroad. Billionaires need to be taxed out of existence so we can stop spending our collective wealth on dumb shit contracts for palantir and elon musks dogshit companies.

They should absolutely pay for it through higher corporate taxation which is how businesses are incentivized to grow their business instead of stashing away wealth. Get rid of citizens united corporations are not people and they have stolen our democracy.

Well it's not just the money they've also stolen our democracy and have complete control on society, media and now the public lands as a whole.

They've also stolen a good economy. The economy in this country worked best when corporate profits were taxed at a much higher rate and companies were incentivized to grow business and we could create more jobs for people. Through their grip on society they have stolen that wealth and good economic output.

We have plenty of evidence that tax cuts do not fuel economic growth look out our industry right now there are massive layoffs everywhere and it's not because of dogshit LLMs

It is sad, psychosis from exec-up has trickled down so people really want these tools to work yet these tools are so bad that people in this thread are recommending you create a second email so your openclaw can suggest events to you without being able to delete them.

It's like having to hire a second maid to watch your maid that steals constantly instead of vacuuming yourself in 10 mins.

yeah i'm not gonna be an AI company's guinea pig just because the c-suite wants to sign me up. "the results" you mean AI-psychosis and dunning-kruger syndrome?

What?? Surely once these companies have locked in their Claude workflows claude wouldn't somehow raise the price. Or steal inventions like Amazon does. Surely.

Flat out wrong. The most impressive engineers I've met in my career did not care for fancy tools with bells and whistles.

sounds like your only measure of good tests is how quickly the llm can produce and run them. not a good metric.

LOL screenshot regression. You're still not a dev buddy read some books

damn if only this language could be made to work with numbers we would really have something. Let's ask an LLM about it

If the amount of code corporations produce goes even 2x there's gonna be a lot of jobs for us to fix every company's JIRA implementation because the c-suite is full of morons.

I could copy 250k lines from github.

Faster than using ai. Cheaper. Code is better tested/more secure. I can learn/build with other humans.

I am trying to push back. I don't care if other people think the tools make them faster, I did not sign up to be a guinea pig for my employer or their AI-corp partner.

Not really, this is exactly what I expect due to baseless lies from the AI companies and a disdain for employee payroll by the C-suite.

"the golden age of computing started 100 years ago"

Only 14% of Americans described themselves as "very happy" in recent studies, a sharp decline from 31% in 2018.

woohoo we did it, our neighbors are being sent to prison camps who work with the "golden age" bringers. Go team. Nice "golden age" you got there, peasant.

So what your saying is lots of people being unemployed and dying from lack of resources is merely a "downside" and we should all just support your mediocre idea of what a "golden age" is?

Palantir, AWS, Anthropic are being used to mass slaughter children and surveille/target journalists. The entire industry is infected with fascism and moral decay.

thanks but no thanks. Would rather not support a company involved in the mass slaughter of children.
