@eswag@dju.social @Landa@graz.social @futurebird@sauropods.win @cabel@social.panic.com that's a great point. But at least the steam engine and the machines it enabled did what they were supposed to do well and reliably instead of randomly exploding or running backwards or whatever. One can hardly count AI among "means of production" with a straight face.

@hllizi@hespere.de @Landa@graz.social @futurebird@sauropods.win @cabel@social.panic.com I think there were more steam and other explosions than one would want, but I take your point. The machines also enabled mass production of high quality weapons, so anyone who looked like they might not want to deconstruct their local industries and send all their wealth to the owners of UK sweatshops would soon find their capitals being randomly deconstructed by mass produced explosive shells. Models enable the deconstruction of common experience?
