Completely fair, and I definitely agree with your point.
I did. As well written as it is, I don’t think the premise of “the REAL doomers were the CEOs!” is going to spread far enough to dethrone the present, much more popular understanding of what an AI doomer is. It didn’t seem worth addressing. We’ll see though; perhaps every time someone says “AI doomer” on Lemmy, some wag will reply with, “Um a-kually, I think you’ll find the tech CEOs are the real doomers, LOL.”
As to the the notion that the dangers these techbros have released are now coming home to roost: it’s overstated. In my opinion, the techbros will continue not to give the merest shit about the harms they’ve caused, and one misguided soul with a molly isn’t going to change that – or bring back all the dead people LLMs contributed to killing. Will it increase the CEO’s feelings of paranoia? My dude, the wealthy are already maximally paranoid.

Surprise surprise. If you go through Techdirt’s archives, you can see Mike Masnick has spent thousands of words losing his shit any and every time Facebook has faced ANY criticism. I don’t know if he has a financial interest in them (like he does with Bluesky) but the moment someone suggests reining them in, here comes Masnick to defend one of the richest, most lawyer-ed up companies around.
Leak? Surely they mean “unintended emission.”
Mm, I’ve tried leaving mastodon.social, and quickly found that a lot of the people I follow and my followers form an elaborate web of blocks/de-federations that meant I would inevitably lose contact with many people. They’re all good people, but I don’t think they’d change their own instances just for my sake. I could join like, three different instances just to keep in touch, but if forced to choose at this point, I might just give up on Mastodon altogether.

If they had any decency at all they should be arresting the president.

I think you’ve gone the extra mile in actually mentioning what the video is about. On my instance, YouTube links just say “Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube” so half the time I have no idea what is even being posted.
And the OEM’s are like:
Define winning—cause if it isn’t generating vast amounts of bullshit hallucinations, then Brad Smith is talking out of his poop hole.
Power Supply OEMs: “Hey! We want in on the price gouging too!”
Or it’ll be like buying a used car, 36 monthly payments and your PC will finally be yours!
Where is the big bright beautiful tomorrow that we were promised?
