This is not how I reached this point, but it is an example of an experience that would get me to this point.

Earlier today I was watching a video on passive ventilation. It talked about windcatchers and such, which I had already known about, and showed videos of them. It then talked about medieval european ventilation designs, which I hadn’t known about, and showed videos of windmills? I kept watching the video until the four-minute mark when it showed a diagram of a house with some depictions of temperature flow. I noticed that the image was oddly grainy, weirdly generic, and oh- this is an ai image!

People in the comment section had noticed this as well. Apparently it became more obvious later in the video. The imagery was generated using ai. Also apparently the voiceover was ai generated as well.

I fact-checked some of the information given and it was just wrong? There wasn’t even much information in the video, and it was still wrong! They didn’t even give specific information but their general information was still wrong!

Tldr: a burger that on the outside appears to be a burger, yet on the inside is merely grey goo

I think that popping the ai bubble would be a good start. The person responsible for the creation of this video should have needed to pay more money in order to churn out misinformation from the banality machine. If I had the power to shift everything as I wanted, I would politely suggest that we construct a society based around the value of human experience. Moving away from capitalist systems (and not towards something worse) would help with a lot of similar problems in general I think.

Hell yeah

Yeah I think so probably. The animal product industry seems pretty messed up. Very un-cool what we do to them. Inefficient too but that’s another argument.
