The point is that being a consumer of AI is not seizing the means of production. If you’re not spending millions of dollars training and operating the AI to actually own it, the power you have is on lease and the terms can change at anytime without regard to your needs or wishes.
AI isn’t your pal, it is not the cure for isolation under capitalism. It is also not free to run unless you are the product.
Frankly this take that AI will lead to a communist revolution if people embrace the technology reads more like Vulgar Marxism. You’re not seizing the means of production by being a consumer of a technology. And training a communist aligned LLM is a dubious value proposition.
I think in order to be a good psychiatrist you need to understand what your patient is “babbling” about. But you also need to be able to challenge their understanding and conclusions about the world so they engage with the problem in a healthy manner. Like if the guy is worried how AI is making the internet and world more dead then maybe don’t go to the AI to be understood.
Decoupling the market was them admitting their stuff is not as popular to the global market
So even Canada has lower labor costs because of universal healthcare.
我这样说是因为我了解历史
If you make Roman/Nazi salute than your opinion is not worth considering. Either you’re doing it because you approve of an ideology that will always fail, or you lack the contextual awareness to form an insightful opinion.
Edit: judging from your comment history, if you posted an image for yourself doing the salute I would say the latter. But we all know you’re too ashamed/scared to share an image of yourself doing that “gesture”
Where do you think the Nazis got the salutes from? And for that matter, where do you think we got the word fascism from?
When requirements are “Whatever” then by all means use the “Whatever” machine: https://eev.ee/blog/2025/07/03/the-rise-of-whatever/
And then look for a better gig because such an environment is going to be toxic to your skill set. The more exacting the shop, the better they pay.
Literally the opposite experience when I helped material scientists with their R&D. Breaking in production would mean people who get paid 2x more than me are suddenly unable to do their job. But then again, our requirements made sense because we would literally look at a manual process to automate with the engineers. What you describe sounds like hell to me. There are greener pastures.
Maybe it is because I started out in QA, but I have to strongly disagree. You should assume the code doesn’t work until proven otherwise, AI or not. Then when it doesn’t work I find it is easier to debug you own code than someone else’s and that includes AI.
Why would you ever yell at an employee unless you’re bad at managing people? And you think you can manage an LLM better because it doesn’t complain when you’re obviously wrong?
A junior developer actually learns from doing the job, an LLM only learns when they update the training corpus and develop an updated model.
It’s usually vastly easier to verify an answer than posit one, if you have the patience to do so.
I usually write 3x the code to test the code itself. Verification is often harder than implementation.

When LLMs get it right it’s because they’re summarizing a stack overflow or GitHub snippet it was trained on. But you loose all the benefits of other humans commenting on the context, pitfalls and other alternatives.
Pepper Ridge Farms remembers when you could just do a web search and get it answered in the first couple results. Then the SEO wars happened…
I wonder how much of it is vibe coded at this point…
With you up until bringing the far left into this. What does universal healthcare, trans rights or taxing billionaires have to do with the surveillance state, aside from dismantling it?
