    AI as it now stands gives me quite the opposite of hope. It’s only intended to enslave the working class and further transfer wealth to the top 0.01%, as is fusion.

    Solarpunk gives me hope.

      Well, maybe you aren’t aware of how it’s being used to design proteins to create therapies for pretty much… everything, from cancer to Crohn’s. Another 2-3 years before you see products in human trials.

      Or how it’s revolutionized climate science and weather forecasting.

      If all you see is the hype Grok images and SEO slop, it’s reasonable to reject the technology. But that would be deeply misguided.

        I’m aware of the promises of AI, yes. LLMs are trash. Folding proteins is awesome. Nonetheless, it’s all controlled by the ultrawealthy, and that is THE problem today, which AI ain’t solving for us.
