This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

This community is for posts about Marxism and geopolitics (including shitposts to some extent). Serious posts can be posted here or in /c/GenZhou. Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively.

We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.

Two points about AI from a very much non-expert (me):

  1. Current western attempts look impressive but are a bit shit and are probably doomed to fail for as long as they can't filter out liberalism and memes. It's going to be contradictions of capitalism and it's ideology on a speedrun.
  2. China has the data of up to 1.4 or more billion people all under one roof. And as they're Marxists, they can ensure that the developed AI better correlates to reality and it's used productively rather than to cheat on tests (that's going to end up badly) and to sack employees because the computer (incorrectly) said so.

Which is to say the west is doubly fucked and AI won't save it.

Hm, i'm no expert on AI either, but I also don't think it could save the west. Nothing can save the west, it's either socialism or barbarism. Either we start controlling ourselves and stop exploiting literall everything, or we keep digging our own graves.
