I should hope that this is not an unpopular opinion. But I’m not sure that it isn’t, either.

A detailed view on any topic, to see the gap in between extremes and the capacity to remember that two things can be true at the same time, is of the essence if we are to have meaningful discussion. And it is forgotten all too often in popular media, social or news.

Likewise. It is encouraging to see discussion on the topic.

It will be useful to encourage more structured and public discussion to allow wider change to occur.

All things considered our species is doing relatively well. Having the ability to assign purpose and use tools does cause us to get stuck in a stupid rut all too often, though.

I can’t fathom why a person would willingly use corpospeak. I can’t imagine anyone actually likes to speak that way.

I would invite the reader to always call it out when it occurs, and call for all involved parties to speak plain.

There seems to be some kind of difference in the meaning of “political”.

I offer the definition from the Oxford Dictionary:

adjective

relating to the government or public affairs of a country.

The idea that everyone deserves healthcare is itself political, it pertains to how a country should be run. It is also not a universal view; many people disagree that people do in fact deserve healthcare.

Luigi Mangione’s act was indeed very political. It is an eruption of the view that all people in the USA deserve healthcare and that the private system is depriving people of this right.

We must remember that data centres don’t consume energy on their own!

If your view is that large amounts of energy being spent on “AI” usage is unwise, and that its wasteful application should stop, talk about it! Be visible, be clear.

Don’t let the current momentum stand.

I agree with you. Perhaps more insistent messaging would be useful. A pin, maybe?
