Both social media algorithms and AI are bullshit. The difference is that back when google was offering its search engine for the first time, it was basically pirating content from big corps (like new corps) for the average joe. The algorithm was always bullshit, what made those web 2.0 companies popular was their Robbin Hood attitude. Under the subterfuge of a new technology they stole from the rich (the traditional media) and gave it to everybody. AI is doing the opposite: under the mumbo jumbo argument of training the AI, of a supposedly revolutionary tech, it is stealing from everybody and giving it to a few companies. This is what actually pisses off people about AI. r8 my marxist critique of californian techno-politics.
Bernd thinks you just re-invented Enshittification. The only way companies could get successful in the last decades was by somehow bending the rules and exploiting someone. Google users profited from Google destroying an endless number of companies by ripping off their content. Uber users profited from a few billionaires and banks paying between 30 and 50 percent of the cost of their rides. The whole world profited from exploiting Chinese and other third country workers and cheap sources of energy. Tesla buyers profited from billions in tax credits, government subsidies and a wealthy class of stock market investors. Et cetera. The moment that changes for some reason, usually because the company can now afford to exploit *everybody*, including their customers and business partners, and no longer just the few, the people previously profiting from the old exploitation model in an otherwise illegal way get mad.
