How Big Tech Has Helped Big Oil Automate the Climate Crisis

1. Do you know what compulsive gambling is?
   Also known as gambling disorder?
   It's a mental disease, you can't stop what you do even if you try.

   It's about time to recognize capitalism as mental disease same as gambling disorder.

   It's even worse than gambling habit, capitalism hurts lives of other people.
   Gambling doesn't.

2. I'm no fan of our continuous need for oil.

   But what happens to society and our world when all the working class and middle class jobs are gone?
   That is when things are going to get crazy and it will be when real change is possible.

   Right now people are too scared to lose the little they have to risk making any effort for change. That won't be the case if all the jobs are gone and they have nothing left.

   Edit: And don't you just love the hypocrisy of Microsoft and its owner? Same with the rest of the tech companies. But people will still buy their garbage every time they come out with some new thing.

4. Great interview. I already knew it was going to be tough from the opening camera shot. Good to know the guest is alive enough to be alert to and alarmed by this phenomenon. Those rigs in the ocean are already extinction waiting to happen. What could go wrong digitally-automating them? Bezos is going to escape in his spaceship. Where's he going to go? I read recently that AI can be beneficial. In that it could provide much leisure. It shouldn't be applied to oil, but AI can lessen workloads while delivering more benefits if it is only shared fairly, which is to say, non-capitalistically.

5. Super! Great Reporting! Thank You both! Peace

6. More power to this guy and his message. It needs to get out to the masses and into politicians' heads.

7. "Schlumberger" is pronounced "Shlum-Ber-Jay"

8. No wonder Bill Gates is partnering with David Keith of Harvard to spray the stratosphere with particulates to block sunlight in order to decrease global warming—–BILL WANTS TO KEEP BURNING THAT FOSSIL FUEL! Now I get it. He thinks he can play God with the planet. http://www.GeoengineeringWatch.org

9. Very simple – corporations are ammoral – the goal is short-term profits while reducing short-term and long-term costs. Do not be pleased with or disappointed with corporations – control them. It's not their fault – it is our corrupt political systems' fault and the peoples' for electing clowns that are bought by corporations. Don't be offended that your pit bull attacked you – he's not bad or good, he's being a pit bull!

10. Big Tech needs to makes money and Big Oil is willing to invest. To use a metaphor, boy meets girl.

11. This Gizmodo guy doesn’t seem to know much about exploration and production, so it’s hard to judge what exactly these data services are providing to assist the oil industry. Is he suggesting it’s unethical to be in business of selling their generic data services? Need more details to judge if this is nothing more than fluff

12. as long as we can imagine the end of humans but not the end of Capitalism we are doomed.

13. This is sinister activity. These people want the collapse of society, I cant think of any other reason behind this think. Conspiracy, I know. But…

14. Evil Criminals

15. Global warming = global engendering

16. man… literally nothing about this surprises me… Capitalist pigs must eat.

17. climate crisis = govt tax WAKE UP TO THIS E BEGGING GOVT DISINFO SHILL CHANNEL

18. There funding both sides, age old tactics.

19. Big oil/tech are using AI and automation to wage seige warfare,even sanctions,on the entire world population to ensure no successful drives to undermine their own power can ever gain traction. They have no issue with even killing billions of people,and most life on earth, to protect their power.

20. Big tech serves the powerful and has done very little for me. The greatest improvement in my lifetime has been an electric bicycle.
    Even the internet which has expanded information and convenience in my opinion has turned to turd.
    The invasion of privacy, the manipulation of information in the end will screw us and serve them.

    Big tech feeds the military and makes the world less safe in my opinion.

    I am constantly thinking i want to get rid of my laptop, but alas so far i am trapped.
    I need discipline to use my laptop as a tool and not hang out there.

    My fantasy is a 200 foot tsunami hits northern California and gives them their due.
    All i have left are my dreams and those scumbags are probably colluding to take them.

21. As soon as a second commodity is used to compare the first one we are in trouble.
    Any object of utility never takes the form of a commodity in isolation.
    But as soon as we introduce a second commodity of a different kind as an equal to the first one we are no more than possessors of commodities.
    Every trace of humanity is erased by us becoming sellers and buyers of the things we own that the things we own are interacting with each other instead of ourselves interacting by our own will to each other. 
    If we can get over this habit of using money mediating the interactions between ourselves and the natural world the social world will be a better place to live.
