It’s almost funny how all those AI doomsday scenarios are actually meant to prop up investment in AI.
See how Amodei and Altman are usually the ones pushing these narratives on how worried they are by the incredible advancements of their respective companies’ creatures. They are so, so worried about the demise of the human race and how fast it’s coming.
And I sort of understand them because whatever disruption they are peddling needs to happen very fast or they will all run out of money. But what does it tell about the rest of the human race that we are actually buying into it and pouring money into creating a dystopian future?
Just re-watched Tron last night and a scene really struck me. Dumont was talking to Lora about how since the computers are able to think the humans will stop. That scene had more impact this time through
It’s like watching a real-life version of Avengers, but one where Tony Stark says “hey, this Thanos guy is diarupting industries here!” and teams up with… Thiel and Musk to fund his quest for the Infinity Stones.
You know, we can’t let China get them first!

Anything for a dollar
It’s “Iraq is using PS2s to build ICBMs” all over again…

Ads back then were so cool, it felt like real magic and it was not hard to believe PS2 is that good.
