Though wrapped in the aesthetic of science, this paper is a pure expression of the AI hype’s ideology, including its reliance on invisible, alienated labor. Its data was manufactured to spec to support the authors’ pre-existing beliefs, and its conclusions are nothing but a re-articulation of their arrogance and ideological impoverishment.

Thank you so much! That’s the nicest thing to read because it’s exactly the kind of thought that I hope to inspire in my fellow developers.

Capture Platforms might be my favorite post, though it’s hard to compare it with the less serious, more fun kind. It’s certainly the one that I worked on the longest. I read at least 2 entire books and countless papers, essays, and book excerpts in the process of making it.
