The continued existence of socialism after its complete moral and intellectual demolition in the 20th century is profoundly depressing. Let us not walk on the road to serfdom, please! Remember Hayek! Remember the Khmer Rouge! "Socialism" is the antisemitism of foolish intellectuals.
I am happy to see how much collective negativity there is to this kind of pointless, time wasting, inaccurate, cringey computer generated boilerplate. Maref, whoever you are, please consider actually writing your own words, not outsourcing them to an algorithm that cannot and will not ever be able to create readable prose.
It would be nice if there was a systematic way to stop AI written content from appearing on HN: the writing is excruciating to read, and there is (obviously) no reasoning involved. It is a form of cognitive pollution, and should at least be culturally strongly disincentivized, as writing makes you smarter, makes you think. Oy!
This is a nice question to ask in general, also where everything is heading. Is it the writing style or the message. To be honest, I am not good at writing at all. Not the writing directly, but writing and structuring my ideas. The blog post idea, and content is something I really think is missing in most of the discussions currently. How do I see myself in the age of AI and how can i develop myself and my team in this age. With still being a team. This blog is also specifically titled as a "Brain dumps, mostly. Thoughts that needed somewhere to go. Unstructured by nature, shaped with AI help." - but I agree, I might need to add this disclaimer everywhere, as I want people to focus on the idea, rather than how the content was produced.
Very conventional, and perhaps good, advice would be to publish useful material adjacent to your problem, educational content that can lead to your solution/app. You might also try working with an LLM to generate less conventional marketing notions. You might also read "Hey Whipple, Squeeze This" to learn a bit about copy.
LLMs surely can help with language learning, but when they write posts like this, the zombie/body snatchers/borg effect is so strong as to be unreadable. Just write it yourself! You can do it! It will be better, please please stop generating bad boilerplate language with these fascinating algorithms, PLEASE!
Anxiety over commodification is very, very old, and tends to miss the upsides of commercial society. Intellectuals, by our nature, focus on problems -- often to the point of creating problems where (perhaps) there were none before. Happily "dopamine fracking" will probably not metamorphose into another menacing sounding anti-commercial phrase. There are enough already.
If you are sympathetic, or even curious, about the advantages of commercial society Deirdre Mccloskey's bourgeoise trilogy is an excellent place to begin.
You could argue that anxiety over climate change is somewhat old, and yet I'd argue that there's ever more evidence the problem is real. Just because the direction of travel was identified a long time ago, it doesn't mean that it's desirable or impossible to change.
The problem is that "the problem" is not clearly stated. There is surely climate change, but what it means and what we should do and feel about it is very unclear and contested. What is clearer is that certain intellectuals have used 'climate change' to get power via fear. Whether this power is warranted or not must be debated. Even if warranted, fear is a dirty, but traditional, way for clerics to assume domination.
