Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

"Digital Human" as a product class is straight-up dystopian, or at least would be if it made any kind of sense from a technical or economic perspective.
From my point of view, when digitial implants become a real thing (eyes, ears, or god forbid even neuralink-like devices), their users are the digital humans. They will absolutely lose control over their own privacy and also of those surrounding them, and I'm quite sure I don't want walking surveillance devices near me. Normal humans with their phones is a different thing obviously, they can leave their phones somewhere if they want.
