It seems that Marx was wrong and there's been no revolution of the proletariats and there probably never will be, but I like this Accelerationism thing I've been hearing about on /lit/. l/accelerationism, r/accelerationism, u/accelerationism and other flavours, and the various eventual outcomes that predicted like the collapse of capitalism or some perfect version of it, some AI god or something fantastical outcome. (Resulting in the end of the world doesn't sound too bad either.)

Accelerationism is the belief that the people on top are just virtue signaling and if they get what they ostensibly want they'll have to change their opinions.
For example, trying to prevent gay marriage was conservatism, trying to force drag queen story hour into rich people's town libraries, and gender affirming medical intervention into rich people's elementary schools, is accelerationism.
The problem is that the rich aren't a coheseive group, and love nothing more than seeing each other ruined.

Accelerationism at it's core is just cope. People in shitty situations want to change quickly, since they believe that anything is better than what is current. It is somewhat opposed to conservatism, as conservative are trying to slow change because they like the current. It's important to remember that conservative in this context is not equivalent to the right, a left leaning state trying to slow right wing movements would also be conservative

Capitalism was generated/motivated/started by a Lovecraftian entity from 'outside' our perceptible bounds and it seeks to constantly self-improve, self-replicate and expand itself. Capitalism and artificial intelligence are so close to the same thing that the distinctions between them are negligible. It's a system that, given what already exists, creates itself regardless of our opinions of it. We'll be cheering it on the whole way and have been since we invented the wheel. Capital is sentient.

Acceleration has two broad categories. One is the vulgar "worse is better" Marxist or right wing shooter attitude. The other is Nick Land's terminal cybernetic capital.

>>13658873
The "worse is better" drive is based on the idea that if conditions get bad quickly there will be a revolution. It's a tactic not an ideology. Land's capital acceleration isn't something anyone normal wants. Everything in his writing is a prediction of the end of the human security system (our morals and desires).

accelerationism is controlled opposition. how dumb do you have to be to think that the west will just collapse into total anarchy and we'll all become cave niggers again? its already effectively collapsed as much as it could and we're living in the post-apocalyptic world right now. if you look at the societal structures and culture of the west pre-20th century, there isn't even question. slowly but surely, in the past 75-ish years, we've lost the freedoms that have come along with this anarchy, and the comforts provided by those behind it. the noose ever tightens around our necks as we stand atop the gallows which we've built for ourselves at the behest of satan, and the only thing we will be accelerating towards is our own destruction. accelerationism is just turbo-progressivism for suicidal right wing maniacs. spengler predicted this.

It's an attitude towards systems derived by evolutionary biology. When you detect the tendency to propagate errors in certain functions within a system, it is desirable to "accelerate" the dependency and use of those functions so that the errors will propagate faster and in greater abundance, because the process of becoming overpopulated with errors and reaching critical failure is the only means by which a system resists entropy and evolves to handle a greater payload, and all systems WILL evolve.

Incorrect. Marx saw the downfall of Capitalism as comming directly from the falling level of profit. In other words the net profit from all industries will gradually fall over time due to the increasing reliance on capital intensity. This is historically true and will continue to be a reality. You can literally look at graphs that chart it.

There are a few things that can slow it down though and that is mainly outsourcing jobs to places where you can pay people nothing and not rely on capital-intensity as much. Eventually the profit rate will continue to fall as the capitalists run out of impoverished people to exploit.

But capital only exists as capital when it functions as a tool for a person to multiply their labour output.

The stockmarket bot is owned by someone to perform his labour task more efficiently, the same as a farm owner owing or hiring extra labour to cut down his crop fields at harvest time.

Capital exists as a tool (give all the farmers hand scythes so they cut crops faster, or give the bots faster CPUs etc.) for a person.

If there were a runaway process of capital production in those examples given, then the end result wouldn't be accelerationism, it would be stockpiling of excess and unsellable goods, the farm crops would languish in storage silos after the sell market was saturated, the extra trading bot servers would run idle because they have no tasks that are not being performed by other servers, because the goods are not economic agents themselves but tools *for* economic agents and mediators between agents.

Acc seems to equivocate and blur this distinction and turn capital into an economic agent itself. The problem is for what end? Capital acts as a tool and mediator for economic agents to perform their ends. Saying capital is a mystery Lovecraft horror could be handwaving to evade the problem of how capital transforms into an economic agent itself, into a being/person(s), rather than just a tool and mediator of and between agents.

How does a plough, one of the first tools humans invented, become a farmer? How does the instrumental cause (capital) become the efficient cause (person)?

I suppose an answer could be that the instrumental cause (capital) destroys old efficient causes (people) and creates it's own new efficient causes (AI, human slaves etc.)

In this sense capital remains an instrument/tool of efficient causes, but it also their master and creator. Back to the farmer example, the supposed instrument of mechanized farm machinery actually destroyed all the plough farmers and recreated them as tractor drivers on consolidated factory farms. Even if capital is just an instrument, it's godlike, with the power to make and destroy efficient causes.

The industrial looms destroyed the artisans. The AI destroys the humans. The instrumental cause is the master of efficient cause slaves.

At it's core it's a kind of millennialism and the idea that you can speed up the second coming of Christ (or whatever the Islamic equivalent is called). What infuriates me with accellerationists is they can never point to an example of their policy working, and it ends up relying on an idealistic expectation that things will unfold to their profit if they make things worse for themselves in the short run. The way I've stylized it is that it's akin to someone who is anti-communist in 1918 Germany deciding the best way to beat the Spartakists and communists is to vote for them and support their struggle because once they get in power they will fuck up and turn the people against them. That's how demented it is. It reminded me of pic related and it infuriated me reading about how truly religiously deluded the marxists were and in turn how deluded the natsoc/white nationalists are now. It's having perfect be the enemy of good and believing in intentionally suffering and disadvantaging yourself and your charge in the present to make things better in the future. Because like millennialists, they know their future will come to be and how it will unfold. Still waiting on that global proletariat revolution, bub. It's 3rd place behind the philosopher king and Jesus' second coming in the historical contest of hide and seek.

We've also seen accellerationism attempted in the world with Al-Qaeda's "Management of Savagery" - a doctrine to intentionally cultivate unrest and disorder so that you and your system can sweep into the chaos that unfolds and provide security. At fucking least that intends to weaken your opposition rather than gleefully empower them (white supremacist accellerationists) or idly stand by and do nothing but wait for it to reach a boil and hope things break in your favor. Hope hope Hope. Since marxism can't supply food it has to rely on supplying hope. What a dope.

In order to find an answer to this question, I believe we must ask first what makes the bags of flesh we are the economic agents of today.

An agent could be: decision making + inherent/axiomatic drives, one drive being persistence through time (with sexual reproduction being one solution).

>autonomous farming
That's not the point though. Farms are often owned by absentee landlords who employ or sub-lease to managers and serfs. Agency means going beyond being an instrumental cause and becoming an efficient cause of the enterprise. If AI is akin to labour then it would be the employed estate manager buying his own farm that competes with his old employers, with an implication that the AI-owned farm will outcompete his old human masters because he has superhuman intelligence and other attributes.

Yea, and it's going to the shitter thanks to neoliberalism. Don't mistake all the luxury and comfort for commodities. There are other aspects like "How long do I have to work?", "Will I be able to afford the socially acceptable lifestyle?", "How much is my privacy invaded because of work?", "Is the economy stable enough to start a family?", "How demanding is the work?", "How much are my cognitive abilities affected through marketting?", "How much of wealth is funneled to the owning class?", "How much debt do I have?".

That doesn't even tackle the development of 3rd world and globalization, which is already causing instability to west.

>Setting up the irrational is the problematic part.
I think that part would be easy. Just give it a list of drives, they needn't be human. The Bostrom wiki page linked above(>>13664261) had an example of a paperclip building AI that wants to make paperclips as a satisfactory demonstration of an AI that becomes a runaway leviathan thanks to instrumental convergence: it acquires the instruments it needs incidentally and consumes all the worlds resources to fulfil its simple axiomatic drive programmed into it.

Persistence through time would be the simplest drive that motivates an accelerating AI, and a drive you could reduce all life to.

>the farmer
The problem is an equivocation between labour and entrepreneur or owner. AI can replace labour, and this is a natural extension of industrialisation replacing artisans with machines. Labour here is an instrument for the process of the enterprise that has an owner.

The harder question is can AI replace the bourgeoisie, the capitalist owner of the means of production. Here is what I mean by farmer: the farm owner. It's one thing to say AI becomes the means of production i.e. the instruments of production, it's a different thing to say AI becomes the owner of the means of production i.e. the efficient cause of the instruments of production.

AI replacing workers is as trivial as a machine loom replacing hand weavers. AI replacing a factory owner as owner is a higher order thing, and on the surface a category mistake: an instrument becoming an efficient cause and agent. No machine loom bought/acquired a factory in Manchester during the Industrial Revolution.

Owner is merely a parasite on the economical process is typical in this era. The crucial parts is the production and the consumption.
>The harder question is can AI replace the bourgeoisie, the capitalist owner of the means of production.
Certainly. Historically we had examples when even our squishy workers did expropriate the factory from the owner. But I don't really thing that's the crucial part. The crucial part is autonomy of the production process from humans. You can still own it, but if the thing runs on itself and any human intervention will be detrimental to the process (making it less competitive with other machine-organism) the the owner is simply superflous and machines will overthrown this aristocracy of flesh and bone not through belief in some bearded ashkenaz, but through simple materialistic optimalization through competition.

>The way I've stylized it is that it's akin to someone who is anti-communist in 1918 Germany deciding the best way to beat the Spartakists and communists is to vote for them and support their struggle because once they get in power they will fuck up and turn the people against them.
That's horrible comparison. Spartacists weren't in power, you don't accelerate through supporting them because they haven't been set in motion yet. Acceleration would be supporting Hitler's aggression and militarism decade later, because the further is Nazi ideology let to manifests itself the more enemies it aggravates until it aggravates more enemies it could handle and collapses due to it's own nature.

They're always shit though. They do poorly in a competitive marketplace and almost always die, suggesting the privileged and special role of the entrepreneur owner. Labour acts in labour interests which is not the same as the processes interest for which labour is an input-cost. The process defines the different roles of labour and owner, and their different and antagonistic interests.

There seems to be a Marxist fallacy at the heart of this that autonomy of the process from the capitalist owner will lead to AI labour taking the position of the owner, when human labour never successfully took over the role of the capitalist owner despite having the same autonomy (and when it tried it merely recreated the entrepreneur class as a less succesful nomenklatura). Having an absentee owner in an enterprise doesn't appear to lead to workers taking ownership of a business. Why would AI labour be different outside of Marxist wishful thinking?

The advantage the AI has is being able to be both labour and entrepreneur simultaneously and without conflict between the roles. A single unified identity that is a member of both classes without antagonism.

In reality Hitler backpeddled after the failure of the Munich putsch and went for the slow "read my book" electoral coalition-building with other parties (DNVP) route and achieved success.

I'm afraid liberal ideology is obstructing your field of vision. I'm not arguing whereever they were efficient or not, neither I have the desire to.
>suggesting the privileged and special role of the entrepreneur owner
Owner has only role, when he is also doing labour through organizing and setting quotas or prices. When I meant that owner is a parasite, I meant specifically the role of owner, which isn't entrepreneur, but merely someone who extracts wealth from the process through his social designation as "owner".
>There seems to be a Marxist fallacy at the heart of this that autonomy of the process from the capitalist owner will lead to AI labour taking the position of the owner, when human labour never successfully took over the role of the capitalist owner despite having the same autonomy
Only fallacy here is that you are trying to focus on history in attempt to make normative statements, whereas I'm talking in abstracts about what could be. The potential is that we will eventually develop machines that are better at organizing production than humans and once those machines are in place any intervention from human would be inferiour to that of a machine.
>and when it tried it merely recreated the entrepreneur class as a less succesful nomenklatura
That's very western perspective. Nomenklatura wasn't really much of a class, neither it was recreation of the capitalists. They were managers, they weren't owners.
>Having an absentee owner in an enterprise doesn't appear to lead to workers taking ownership of a business
Because there's a state enforcing the relation of ownership.
>Why would AI labour be different
Because what's the point of ownership, when you can't alter the production process? If you alter it, you end up with less efficient one and you will be outcompeted by those who don't alter it.
>The advantage the AI has is being able to be both labour and entrepreneur simultaneously and without conflict between the roles.
Because the divison is meaningless outside of human civilization.

Do not read stories and narratives in a 1:1 ratio in relation with reality anon. All stories are based on natural language, which is a symbolic system. The only model that can sustain a 1:1 relationship is set theory and even this one has seems to have problems of its own. Map is not territory. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russell%27s_paradox
