I want an app to block luddites from my life


People who are anti growth, anti technological progress, I want them out of my life. How can I do this

I want to never meet them, never interact with them whether online or physically

There must be some tech solution to that social problem

👤 shorekey
I think the luddites may have pre-blocked you using a technology called “vibes.”

Quit your job, stay home and claim unemployment benefits. That way you can avoid interacting with anyone who doesn’t agree with your worldview.

Stick to interacting with LLMs and you’ll never have to risk interacting with a person with a different perspective.

To provide a sensible answer: people tend to not be so anti things as having different priorities. I have tinkered with AI, building models etc, but have lost interest because I find the way it is being used is ultimately dangerous. Does that put me in your hate group?

With comments like this, it might be good to sit and think about what you are saying:

"no way llms can be worse than what we have now (absolute gerontocratic retardation) and i think the tech is now good enough."
