AI is fundamentally about colonialism.
At its roots, what makes GenAI work is currency and hourly wage arbitrage. Pay data workers in Africa and Asia very low amounts of money to basically put the raw materials together.
There’s no surprise why @timnitGebru, @abebab and others have called this a form of algorithmic or data colonialism.
@xameer it's very difficult for me to follow marxist logic, but the final phenomenon you describe exists and the reason for it isn't even classist, but rather that we live in meta-state neofeudalism.

The United States is helping #russia kill #Ukrainians: "As a result of this pause [in U.S. #intelligence sharing with #Ukraine], there are hundreds of dead Ukrainians.
Ukrainians have lost the ability to detect the approach of Russian #bombers and other #warplanes as they take off inside Russia. As a result, Ukraine has less time to warn civilians and #military personnel about the risk of an approaching airstrike or missile."

Is Donald Trump a Russian asset? This US author is 'completely certain' he is¹

The Kyiv Independent sat down with Unger to hear what makes him so certain.
