There just seems to be a creeping philistinism that AI is promoting.

Hagen Blix gave this example of AI therapy for the masses, crappy but cheap.

What about the crapification rather than the doom scenario?

Yeah.

Yeah, it feels to me that the only places where I don't experience identification like really intensely are when I use frontier AI models.

Welcome to Understanding Capital, a podcast on Marxist critique of political economy.

I'm your host, Hagen Blix, and today we're getting started.

In this podcast, we're going to be reading Capital.

That is, you, the listener, and me.

That is, I will have one episode, which is me talking about capital, saying things that are hopefully useful and interesting to you.

And then there'll be a B-side where I have a friend or a comrade over to talk about the same thing.

As for me, your host, I'm Hagen Blix.

I have a PhD in linguistics.
