        Fine then.

        Prove me wrong.

        Do something, anything at all about it, in real life and not just on the internet.

        And get, like, I don’t know, five people to do it with you.

        Do that much, and I’ll admit I’m wrong.

        I mean, I try to be a reasonable person. I tend to be calm and collected and to withhold judgment until all of the information is in.

        In this case, all of the information is in.

        People will bitch about it forever on the internet, but will never, ever do anything in real life about it.

        5 people is not a really huge ask.

        Get five people to congregate with you at the footsteps of a company that is using AI to make employment decisions and protest it.

        That seems like a reasonable thing, right? And five people is enough to make a hubbub about it, at least with the company, right? So that’s a reasonable metric, right?

        But if you can’t do that much, which is reasonably attainable for an individual, then you’ll just have to accept that I’m right, no matter who upvotes or downvotes who in the thread.

          we are my dude. in my country many organizations are already trying to pressure for some datacenters not to be placed here, like big tech is planning to.

          but we can’t really do it in the us in their people’s behalf, that gets complicated. hundreds of years worth of theory and examples on how it works and how to say no.
