  • Whatever my sources are more or less stated exactly what you’re saying — outlawing something in 2021 only to have to release further legislation in 2025 doesn’t exactly seem like a ‘solved’ problem to me. Public control is one thing, however the ‘socialist’ country still produces billionaires which I simply struggle to understand as being socialist. Apparently wealth disparity simply doesn’t matter when talking about this topic (which I feel is pretty important when talking about China, we’re talking the top 10% in China owning two thirds of the wealth compared to the U.S. which is just 4 or 5 % higher than China’s).

    Yes, I understand that the people apparently own the means of production — I still struggle to understand how that can be true with such high (and continuing to climb) wealth inequality. It just doesn’t add up, unless we’re willing to accept that China isn’t actually socialist but capitalist with socialist flavor.













  • No, that I can’t answer — it would depend entirely on the level of fallout and where it happens to land.

    You would need to be able to perfectly, and I mean perfectly, predict weather months in advance in order to prepare accordingly.

    The reaility is that for an AI, or rather an AGI, to make the choice to launch nukes would require them to reach a point where they accept the potential loss of their own ‘life’ in exchange for whatever value a nuclear war might hold.

    Now, a modern AI making that choice? Absolutely possible, the things are fucking crazy with literally no concept of what life is.
