  • But that’s the point. It’s already in their hands. There is no ethical and helpful application of AI that doesn’t go hand in hand with these assholes having mostly s monopoly on it. Us using it for ourselves doesn’t take it out of their hands. Yes, you can self-host your own and make it helpful in theory but the truth is this is a tool being weaponized by capitalists to steal more data and amass more wealth and power. This technology is inextricable from the timeline we’re stuck in: vulture capitalism in its latest, most hostile stages. This shit in this time is only a detriment to everyone else but the tech bros and their data harvesting and “disrupting” (mostly of the order that allowed those “less skilled” workers among us to survive, albeit just barely). I’m all for less work. In theory. Because this iteration of “less work” is only tied to “more suffering” and moving from pointless jobs to assistant to the AI taking over pointless jobs to increase profits. This can’t lead to utopia. Because capitalism.






  • Yeah, voyager is the one I use most often on my tablet. Open the link normally, make sure your links are set to open in-app, and as the page is loading, look across the top, where the “done” and “share” buttons are. You’ll see the “Aa” button switch to what looks like a rectangle with lines across it (mimicking a page with lines of text). If you catch it while that icon is showing, it opens right up. But if you miss that brief icon change, you can still click the “Aa” and it’ll bring up a drop down menu. Click “show reader”
