Of note: The prediction that this will beget a future in which poverty is eliminated is the same armpit-fart Sam Altman trotted out when Chat GPT launched. Measurability only matters to these fucks when it serves to bludgeon workers. Not one of us feels less poor.
Apologies if you've said elsewhere, but why is grounding journalistic objectivity in empiricism and reliable science a bad thing? Scientific objectivity is usually about transparency of conditions and peer measurability. Is it uniqueness of non-lab anecdotes & low access to measurable evidence?

“Perhaps, however, the statistic should have raised eyebrows from the outset. Despite recent advances in measurability, biodiversity as a concept is still hard to define, let alone quantify and count.” www.theguardian.com/environment/...
The factoid about biodiversity and Indigenous peoples spread around the world, but scientists say bad data can undermine the very causes it claims to support
corporations map more accurately to the idea of egregores or maybe the golem if not tulpa magic trafficked through Elizabethan misunderstanding the humorism to hormone pipeline might be refining measurability more than rebranding the greeks were just chopping but we can test for chemicals
Asgar Jamneshan, Or Shalom, Terence Tao A Host--Kra ${\mathbf F}_2^\omega$-system of order $5$ that is not Abramov of order $5$, and non-measurability of the inverse theorem for the $U^6({\mathbf F}_2^n)$ norm https://arxiv.org/abs/2303.04853
…on the KPIs…a hard agree, and not least because we have decades of evidence and analysis of the perverse incentives that arise around achieving ‘powerful’ / key indicators, which by their nature also require measurability….
Woke up really angry about that raised fist & wondering when a major news outlet is going to point out that fighting the Secret Service who are protecting you to raise a fist in victory is not only bonkers but dangerous, irresponsible, & callous beyond measurability when others have been shot.
Sure there's data and measurability and near-universal scientific consensus but some guy remembers it being hotter when he was a kid so who's to say
People have truly embraced the canard of software systems being "unbiased". I really wonder how that happened. Some unfortunate amalgam of marketing, pop culture mythos, and capitalist assumptions re: meritocracy & measurability I'd imagine.
