AI is a political project.
The central feature of that political project is taking agency away from everyone.
And Mr. Blair has successfully continued to propagate this idea that no one has agency in this, which is, I think, deeply anti-democratic.
The entire premise of democracy is that we are able to shape our future.
And if someone is saying you cannot stop one of the forces that will come to shape how the future looks, then what's even the point of democracy after that?
I mean, that is deeply untrue.
The things that we do today is what shapes our future.
And there are many people around the world that are now actively contesting the way that these empires of AR are engaging
in this technological imperial project, and it's having an effect on these companies.
So everything that Blair said is, I think, absolutely not true.
Everything.
Everything.
Some of us love technology.
Some of us hate it.
But you can't avoid it.
This literally is the beef of the century because this is the beef that launched ChatGPT.
