  • People have hooked up scripts to automate trade based on celebrities using certain hashtags or other data for years.

    A non insignificant portion of people has absolutely hooked up an ai to it. I don’t know any, but i take that bet in a heartbeat.

    Some will do it responsibly, as an experiment with money they are prepared to loose.

    Ai companies themselves might try this as an internal test, like how atrophic has claude managing a real vending machine (which got manipulated into selling tungsten cubes following customer feedback)

    Others have probably completely destroyed their own lives. A few may have lucked out.











  • The further we go in time the more complex life in society becomes.

    A feudal lord making logistical decisions about how iron in its economy was still capable to grasp how iron is used/reused to make tools, weapons and contraptions.

    With modern technology our tools have become a black box (almost literally) we use them but we do not understand the components and systems it relies on.

    Many times a bad law can still be followed, proven by the many dumb rules people today still follow regardless of the existence of new facts.

    But when you blanketban vpn? It becomes to nonsensical to even consider following it.

    Vpn is more then just a tool to avoid local internet rules. They are an essential technology for secure connections between devices. Standard in almost any professional corporation.

    (Anti corpo as i am, this time i actually believe there lobbying will stop this. Enemy of my enemy is a useful tool )

    This is the equivalent of the feudal lord looking at the iron logistics and ruling that smithing and metallurgy are now banned practices.

    Leaving people without proper tools to work the land, the soldiers without weapons to enforce any law.

    Greedy neighbour lords ready to exploit your mistake to invade then.
