The whole idea of memetics is that cultural artifacts like images and tools influence the behavior of individuals who encounter them.
So insisting that tools don’t influence behavior while posting memes to try to get that proposition to replicate is just deeply strange.
Who said that it has no influence in behaviour? And we cannot make adjustments to handle or mitigate/enhance some of it?
Is it like how some people connect video games to violence and ignore the influence of other factors?
The tool has influence, but there are a lot of other factors too.
But you can surely understand how I could see AI as a tool which is exceptionally capable of carrying the philosophy of the “nerd reich”, compared to most other tools.
So it’s only a short walk from there to “well if AI isn’t a meaningfully potent vessel for their ideology then basically nothing is, so there’s no case that merits an abundance of caution.”
Thank you for the link

Or are you saying that tools should not be used?
Okay fair, you didn’t assert no influence.

Social media and the internet is also similar in that POV, right?.
Do you have similar views on it. How do you rate them?
Anyway, the USAmerican Reich and similar folk controlling it is indeed the issue, right?
