(142 posts)I have only one use for AI. Search engines have become useless without it; even DDGo is forcing me to use their AI to furnish our downsized house. (Thrift stores are better!) I enjoy using my brain and as we age, it really becomes a Use it or lose it proposition. I fear education has become a huge babysitting operation to teach keyboarding and immersion in digital distraction, in spite of all the good teachers out there. Ive been watching Republicans denigrate teachers and education since Saint Reagan sold Star Wars and Baby Bush decreed Teach to the Test. Enshittification is rampant, and people are cold, hollow shells with no empathy. I think an EMP would be good for this country; people would have to learn to talk to each other again.
How many of these huge Data Centers will actually be mining cryptocurrency? They would be pure profit while undermining fiat currency! Am I crazy?
