>>36069>I don't know why you posted this on Kissu considered you're just be dismissed by the users here.I only posted it because that's the topic ITT. I think it's important to have civil discussions about such thing. Which we can still have at places like here. I only bring up names like Trump and Biden because they're the ones signing the EOs. Which like it or not are the driving force behind social change now. I'm not interesting in talking politics. I'm interested in talking policy and effects of those on social change. Which is why I tried to give context (e.g. the nation state fear mongering doesn't matter and is just a ploy).
Never forget the western big tech companies are the ones that built China's Great Firewall back in the early 2000s.
>That said, I agree although I think it will be less obvious than what you're suggesting, as this decade is characterized by people deeply distrusting authority with the exception of people who wish to preserve the status quo who use appeals to authority to argue.People distrust authority but they're also happy when they think it's their authority. Hence the constant seesaw of parties rotating in and out of the "seat of power". People are much easier to control when they fight among themselves. While they're distracted with stupid issues (won't give examples) you do major things like spending trillions of dollars on building a system to further enslave them.
For what it's worth: The only reason the China AI enslavement system is running faster than the American one is the fact that it's written mostly in C and machine code. There is nothing stopping American companies from writing theirs that way instead of doing it in Python.
I'm always happy to discuss the actual technology. But the way the technology is being/will be used is far more important.
Also the few people that cry loudly about "no politics!!" are far more annoying than the ones that discuss non-issue politics. Linking to an EO signed by a sitting president isn't the same as bashing groups or people or cheering on the bashing of groups of people. The only reason people react so strongly to "politics" in a thread now is because they were trained into doing it in the mid-late 2010s through bot spam. We had perfectly civil discussion about these topics for decades before that started happening and it happened for a reason. It's an effective way to prevent the public at large from opposing what's going on. There is no point in "taking it to /board/" when said board is just bots replying to bots and a handful of federal agents playing moderator.
