Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>It's Technology AND Policy decisions AND Market behavior:</p><p>"The answer isn’t an AI-specific response, it’s to promote competition, expand labor rights, including intellectual property protections for artists and engineers, protect consumers, provide financing for farming and small business, while taxing and otherwise creating friction for the movement of financial capital. That’s not just good policy because of AI, it’s good policy if you want any form of democracy!</p><p>Yet, today, American policy is organized around juicing higher returns on capital, which means policymakers focus on cutting wages, squeezing consumers, and reducing taxes on finance. This choice isn’t hidden, most of our leaders really believe that experts and financiers know how to organize America better, and much of our economic model is now based on higher asset prices. But these choices have been in place for decades, which is why we are afraid of job losses, instead of seeing the possibility of new industries and prosperity. It’s also why Americans are scared of AI; we rightly assume technology will conform to the larger politics of our society. When American policy was organized to benefit most of us, technology meant The Jetsons. Since it’s now organized to consolidate power, it’s become Black Mirror.</p><p>All of which is to say that we really should pay careful attention to generative AI. If it can cure cancer or automate driving, awesome. At the same time, companies like Meta and Anthropic, who steal en masse, should be held accountable for doing so. But in terms of policy, we have to distinguish between “AI as a technology” and generalized Wall Street-friendly choices causing the problems ascribed to AI, aka lower wages, less job stability, and people without power getting screwed."</p><p><a href="https://www.thebignewsletter.com/p/why-are-we-pretending-ai-is-going" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">thebignewsletter.com/p/why-are</span><span class="invisible">-we-pretending-ai-is-going</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/GenerativeAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GenerativeAI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Monopolies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Monopolies</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Oligopolies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Oligopolies</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Competition" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Competition</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/PoliticalEconomy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PoliticalEconomy</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Automation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Automation</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Unemployment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Unemployment</span></a></p>

Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"Sometimes it feels like the answers to these questions don’t matter. We’re barreling forward into the AI future, whether we like it or not.

One day you wake up and the cameras are everywhere, able to recognize your face and chart your movements across the city you live in. One day you look up and everyone has their face buried in their phone. It happened by degrees, but so gradually you didn’t notice.

Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"Software trends have shifted dramatically — languages have come and gone, release cycles have shrunk from months to hours, architectures have evolved, and AI has taken the industry by storm. Yet the code that automates software deployment and infrastructure has remained largely unchanged.</p><p>“The state of infrastructure automation right now is roughly equivalent to the way the world looked before the CRM was invented,” says Jacob.</p><p>A skeptic might ask, why not use generative AI to do IaC? Well, according to Jacob, the issue is data — or rather, the lack of it. “Most people think LLMs are magic. They’re not. It’s a technology like anything else.”</p><p>LLM-powered agents need structured, relationally rich data to act — something traditional infrastructure tools don’t typically expose. System Initiative provides the high-fidelity substrate those models need, says Jacob. Therefore, System Initiative and LLMs could be highly complementary, bringing more AI into devops over time. “If we want that magical future, this is a prerequisite.”</p><p>System Initiative proposes a major overhaul to infrastructure automation. By replacing difficult-to-maintain configuration code with a data-driven digital model, System Initiative promises to both streamline devops and eliminate IaC-related headaches. But it still has gaps, like minimal cloud support, and few proven case studies.</p><p>There’s also the risk of locking into a proprietary execution model that replaces traditional IaC, which will be a hard pill for many organizations to swallow.</p><p>Still, that might not matter. If System Initiative succeeds, the use cases grow, and the digital-twin approach delivers the results, a new day may well dawn for devops."</p><p><a href="https://www.infoworld.com/article/4021153/can-system-initiative-fix-devops.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">infoworld.com/article/4021153/</span><span class="invisible">can-system-initiative-fix-devops.html</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Devops" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Devops</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Automation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Automation</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/InfrastructureAsCode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InfrastructureAsCode</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/IaC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IaC</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Terraform" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Terraform</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/LLMs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LLMs</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AIAgents" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AIAgents</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/DigitalTwins" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DigitalTwins</span></a></p>
