El problema de la IA de nuestro días es que cada vez veo más difícil que la gente imagine un futuro sin ella. Lo de "la IA ha venido aquí para quedarse" es una narrativa muy asentada en círculos críticos.
Quizás la resistencia simplemente empiece por imaginar un mundo sin los VC que la financian.

Mi abuelo, comisario de la república, los franceses lo tuvieron en una playa comiendo arena. Un día le dijeron que o volvía a la España franquista, con el riesgo que eso suponía, o luchaba en la Segunda Guerra Mundial para liberar París.
Mi abuelo cansado de la Guerra Civil y sin ganas de meterse de nuevo en otro conflicto, decidió volver.
El día de la "Victoria" me crea sentimientos encontrados porque nos utilizaron para su victoria, mientras mi abuelo era detenido por Franco.

Spent my time yesterday in an archive in London and found interesting material regarding technology, feminism and the working class.
Archives always guide you in the path to critical research.
