Cory Doctorow sounds like he has been chatting to his chatbot therapist and they decided together it's a good idea to publish an article that attacks people for having valid criticisms about LLMs and the AI industry.
How dare he. This is such poor judgment.
Leyendo esta entrevista a @… da con un punto importante sobre la gente que permanece en Twitter (posteriormente X)
"En realidad, es un círculo vicioso. La gente que no contribuye a esos discursos de odio estš allí porque tú estšs allí, porque tienes un perfil al que quieren llegar. Pero si tú te fueras, ellos también se irían, porque no valdría la pe…

"There's so many good domestic reasons to do this. Without C-11, Canadian companies could defend their fellow Canadians from American data-theft and cash ripoffs by making alternative clients, jailbreaks, and other add-ons that disenshittified America's defective tech" -- @…
This is good advice to Canada, but it's equally good advise…

America is not great. It has been gutted by the Epstein class, who robbed us blind, raped our kids, and are now selling us shitcoins and chatbots and the spectacle of protesters being shot in the streets.
