If your solution ignores the nature of human psychology it's not a solution, it's a quixotic quest.
Yes, and as their standard of living rises to meet ours, the whole human output becomes increasingly unsustainable.
There is a more plausible path for neural networks to be involved in climate change solutions then their is for you to replace capitalism.
The rain of down votes on ur comments shows me that Lemmy has become every bit as much if not worse an echo chamber than reddit. Facts of the matter are humans are overcrowding the plant and gobbling up all the resources at an unsustainable rate. Human population DOES need to drop a bit of we are to use this planet long term, lest we spell our own doom in a few hundred years by picking this once beautiful planet to the bone.
Only on lemmy would someone think 22 total votes of which only 3/4 are downvotes would be considered a “rain of downvotes” imagine if you were in a room with 22 people and 4 agree with you but 18 didn’t. That wouldn’t be considered a flood of downvotes. That’d just be a minority position.
Excuse my ignorance but how does one analyze how many up or down votes a comment has on Lemmy?
You can separate the vote totals in the settings i believe. Piefed does it automatically. You can also use lemvotes.org to see how each person voted for the comment or post.
I am using the voyager app and have not found a place to separate them but I appreciate the response! I have not looked much into other Lemmy browsing apps and hardly ever use it on the computer...
Settings, appearance, other, display votes. Choose separate as the option and that should do it.
Awesome I've changed it! Thanks a ton feel like it offers more perspective!
Lmao no
I'm sure that if AI could get to the state where it could even approach maybe doing those things, it will mesh very well with capitalism and we'd all benefit collectively. One of the core tenants of capitalism.
I hope someone drops you on your head again
Your issue is clearly with capitalism, and yet you're brain deadly bitching about AI instead.
We're just going to pretend that the only reason companies are funding AI research isn't because they want to replace the work force because it could be cheaper?
They should. That's how automation works. We should be building a society that doesn't require as much work, not insisting on doing work that machines could do when we don't want to.
That shit is not going to mesh well with our current system at all. Hence talking about both.
