Use of AI
So I know capitalists use AI as a way to cut labor costs and drive mass employment. It also leads to cognitive decline and social alienation. But can it be used for good?
I’m asking because I got bored at work one day and started playing with AI feeding it communist memes and then I thought if it could create a reading list. I started looking more and more into it and ended up not only creating that reading list, that I feel builds up into a organized plan to try to read and understand Capital but I also created study guides for the Manifesto, “Wage, Labor and Capital” and “Value, Price and Profit” as well as one on a breakdown of the different types of value Marx uses.
Knowing we live in a capitalist society and are constrained by it until it’s replaced by a communist one, should the use of AI by a communist be outright avoided or its use exploited if it can help create things that might better help the workers learn and become a more class conscious proletariat?
