Working hard for Australia alexwhite.org Personal views.
Critically evaluating whether AI/LLMs are a dangerous financial bubble is absolutely taking AI seriously. Unions are calling for consultation requirements. Pretending LLMs are about to become the Star Trek ship computer is not serious however.

This is great. Normally someone who is buying the home they will live in has to compete with these property speculators which increases prices, but if they're cracking the shits and not hoarding houses any more, that's great.

The return on equity of 13 percent and Commbankâs cash profit of $5.4 billion are the trophies of a money siphon that extracts wealth from renters and mortgage payers to asset owners and the billionaire âEpstein Classâ.

This meme is a joke but Silicon Valley literally paid the brightest minds of our generation to waste their lives on developing this surveillance technology instead of something socially useful or economically productive.

Turns out the anti-union, monopolistic DP World that was trying to lower wages for Australian port workers was run by vile Epstein associate. Beyond time to kick this company out of Victorian and Australian ports.

Rental affordability hits record low as rents rise 2.5 times faster than wages, but what if building more houses just meant rents kept going up to pay for banking and speculator profits?

You do not defeat far-right authoritarians by being more reasonable, by appealing to a centre that does not exist. The consensus trap will merely continue to hand power to the billionaires.
