On: Unsealed Briefs in Authors’ Case v. Microsoft/OpenAI

[MrGilbert]

I recently read a comment that stated that, as democracy clearly does not work, it should be replaced with technocracy.

I'm amazed by the ignorance some people carry around.

Plato made a similar claim in The Republic. 2400 years later, and we still don't have a technocracy in the Western hemisphere where engineers lead countries. Either engineers are systematically oppressed, or there are just other qualities that make a leader than being good at complex problem solving.

This is run-of-the-mill neofeudalist techbro belief. Peter Thiel is a big fan.
