I do both. It is just that quality is getting more expensive and harder to find.

I'd love a world where people have choice. Instead we're left with all the shit the general population deems sufficient, and everything just gets worse and worse.

It doesn't matter if it's antimatter.

As a user too, android works far better for me and I was an Apple user for a few years.

Not having the ugly frosted glass thing is a very big plus.

Or you're in a different country from me.

Literally can't do banking without them. Nor park my car. Nor interact with 99% of all businesses here.

I know, I have them in my country too. But sometimes this reality fades in the background and every now pops up again and hits you hard.

Uh, I have a few immigrant friends in Germany. This is really uncomfortable.

In the past I've been partial to a society based around self-actualization, like a liberal capitalistic society. However, with the way LLMs are progressing then I think society will turn increasingly technocratic and feudal, with no opportunities for social mobility. I don't really believe that LLMs will create new jobs or opportunities in the long run.

Historically socialism and central planning have been inefficient. With recent technological advancements it may be that the purported inefficiencies are no longer there, and I think a democratic, socialist government will be better at having the interest of the people than private for-profit monopolies. A society where everything is automated and you don't have to work could be pretty nice to live in.

I think this has historically been true, but it is worth revisiting now with AI and general tech advancement. Might be more feasible now.

> Socialism CAN not work due to human nature. The sociopaths hijack the centralized assets while exterminating via reallocation all opposition.

You could also argue that capitalism CAN not work due to human nature. Just look at the state of climate change.

There will always be challenges, as is the case with any system. But I guess I don't really think LLMs will create a bunch of new jobs, so either we look into the future with gloom and doom as we who don't have wealth become part of a permanent underclass as opportunities continue to disappear, or we envision a utopia and work to realize it.

Nah not with Trump and Musk. It would have to be presented by a leftist, and maybe in a country outside the US.

I think there should be a political movement that retries socialism with AI. Basically nationalize everything and then automate everything. I think people could get behind that. Basically fully automated luxury communism.
