El desarrollo de la actual #IAgenerativa es solo un paso más para alcanzar la AGI. El objetivo principal de Silicon Valley es lograr la #eugenesia a través de la colonización de la humanidad. Esta tecnología no es inocua ni es una «herramienta», es un instrumento que sacrifica el presente en pos de un futuro utópico.

Aquí tenéis la traducción al español realizada por Arte es Ética del informe «The TESCREAL bundle» de Timnit Gebru y Émile P. Torres.

arteesetica.org/el-paquete-tes

¿Qué hay detrás de la carrera por alcanzar la AGI? Un paquete de ideologías agrupadas en el acrónimo TESCREAL (transhumanismo, Extropianismo, singularitarismo, cosmismo, Racionalismo, Altruismo Efectivo y largoplacismo). Ideas de una secta a la que se le está dando el control del mundo.

Paper original de los autores @timnitGebru y Émile P. Torres: doi.org/10.5210/fm.v29i4.13636

@mavori @blaetter Genau mein Problem mit dem Text! Zumal er mit den Bezeichnungen "Fantasien", "Mindset" völlig verharmlost, dass diese Leute faschistoiden Ideologien anhängen. Das haben @timnitGebru et al. in Studien zum Akronym #TESCREAL eindrücklich gezeigt. Ideologien sind gefährlicher und zielgerichteter als "Fantasien", s. Realpolitik unter Trump.

Tatsächlich gibt es stärkere Hinweise, dass diese Typen schon immer empathielos waren und Narzissten leichter Karriere machen in unserem System

Das Programm der @datenspuren ist online!

Ich freue mich sehr, zusammen mit @HonkHase über #tech, #Kybernetik #Faschismus, #TESCREAL & #palantir zu sprechen & mit euch zu diskutieren
talks.datenspuren.de/ds25/talk

Schließlich sollte mensch sich ja nicht von so Gestalten wie #PeterThiel / #ElonMusk o.ä. das Leben & den Planeten verderben lassen

Das Thema #Magie & #KI nehme ich in einem anderen Vortrag auseinander

datenspuren@c3d2.social 's program is online!

I am excited to be there with @HonkHase to explore the topic of #tech & #fascism, of #cyberbetics, #TESCREAL & #Palantir talks.datenspuren.de/ds25/talk

Because we shouldn't let figures like #PeterThiel, #ElonMusk, e.g. ruin our lives or our #planet

And there'll be another talk by me: so-called #AI & #magic talks.datenspuren.de/ds25/talk On #sustainability, #society, and, because it seems to be the season, #fascism

Just explained to my wife who Peter Thiel is, why I don't use Paypal any more, and what #TESCREAL means.

She asked if I was falling prey to disinformation campaigns.

Which, I suppose, is fair. For anyone outside the #tech bubble, this must all sound like wild technobabble and Huxley / Orwell / @pluralistic ravings.

We have to tell this story in a way that people for whom the internet might as well be magic can understand.

That's not going to be easy.

@Kierkegaanks @gilduran

Interestingly the point is made in the #podcast that many #technobros are true believers, driven by childhood dreams that bear little regard for plausible outcomes. Does that make them scammers or their vision for the future a scam?

That may be a distinction without a difference other than its lack of malign intent. My sense is a willingness to sacrifice the welfare of billions to satisfy what is likely a fantasy. Can anything be more selfish?

@gilduran in conversation with astrophysicist Adam Becker who calls bullshit on childish #TechBros fantasies of #AI general intelligence, #MarsColonization, etc.

I was struck by how many #billionaires are wasting their and government money in a selfish quest for #EternalLife rather than solve immediate problems for humanity

The Mises Institutes are think-tanks for extreme free-market #ideology

The Mises Institute #Germany announced to give ‘Memorial Prize in honour’ to #Milei , president of #Argentina & #Cyberlib
Now 3 members from the advisory board resigned because of it

Not bc of his #chainsaw politics against populace & social systems - this is hailed in such places. But because he might drag Mise's name into a bad light
