Nick Clegg kritikuje Silicon Valley i 'tech bro' kulturu
Nick Clegg, bivši izvršni u Meta i nekadašnji britanski političar, objavljuje knjigu How To Save The Internet i u njoj oštro govori o kulturi Silicon Valley. Clegg ističe da je kultura tech bro zajednice u Silicijumskoj dolini problematična i da privilegovani članovi često pokazuju kombinaciju arogancije i žaljenja.
"You’d think, wouldn’t you, that if you were immensely powerful and rich like Elon Musk and all these other tech bros and members of that podcast community," "that you’d reflect on your good fortune compared with most other people?" Clegg dalje kaže: "In Silicon Valley, far from thinking they're lucky, they think they’re hard done by, [that] they’re victims," and "I couldn’t, and still can't, understand this deeply unattractive combination of machismo and self-pity."
Clegg opisuje Silicon Valley kao mjesto konformizma: "It is a cultural thing," "If you’re accustomed to privilege," he added, "equality feels like oppression." On takođe tvrdi da su mnogi samozvani slobodni mislioci u tehnološkom svijetu "cloyingly conformist." "Everyone wears the same clothes, drives the same cars, listens to the same podcasts, follows the same fads,"
Nick Clegg, zagovornik AI tehnologije, iznosi i stavove o pravu korišćenja materijala za treniranje modela i nastavlja da u knjizi How To Save The Internet razmatra kako kultura u Silicon Valley utiče na tehnologiju, Meta i širi tehnološki sektor.
