The vast majority of redditors are incredibly myopic and narrow minded. If an idea I share anywhere on reddit gets down voted I usually consider this a sign that im on to something

​I’m serious, redditors basically lack any imagination, creativity, or ability to consider unique ideas. I wouldnt mind if their attacks were well thought out and genuienly challenge the idea; but 98% of the time its like the haven’t even read what’s proposed and just present arguments against what ever pre existing notions in their tiny heads maps closest to the idea presented. For any good ideas, the nearist mapping existing thoughts are usually pretty far away.

​If something is shared and gets a lot of upvotes, I usually consider it a sign that it’s too derivative an idea to be important or it serves the interests of existing power structures.

The working class is in a much better position to replace capitalists with AI than the owning class is to replace workers with AI.

Effectively managing and directing resources is basically an entirely spread sheet based activity. It's the kind of thing for which a vast amount of training data exists, and it would be easy to run RL on this kind of task.

consider the other hand trying to train an AI robot system to be a plumber by comparison. It's a complete non-starter at our current tech level. similar with most working class positions.

An AI system that decides how and where resources are distributed might even be much better at allocating resources than a market. its decisions and reasoning tokens could be open and auditable by all and could be challenged by anyone.

This would stand in stark contrast to our opaque system that distributes 99% of avalible resources to only a few % of the population.

It would be incredibly ironic if the systems that capitalists created in an attempt to discard workers ended up being the exact systems needed to actually make communism work effectively. No one thought AI would be making art before doing manual labour. Maybe this could be a similarly surprising turn in its development.
