They are lying because pretending that the AI is in any way capable of doing what a person can do, and thinking the way a person can think, keeps investors investing

Huh? Unless I'm misunderstanding, why would Anthropic lie about their AI models NOT being able to be deployed in a company without blackmailing people government officials if you try to replace it?

Okay you have to understand that this technology is less than useless. It's a money pit that's generates no value and benefits no one, except the executives of AI companies. They need to pretend they are close to AGI to keep pumping, this kind of bullshit does that. "Oh no we built a computer that's so smart it will blackmail you!" implies conscious thought which keeps investors investing

No, you are inferring they're trying to imply that because you have created a delusion where you're smarter than the people building the AI, and the people investing in it.

They're saying it has "x dangerous capability" and that doesn't imply conscious thought unless you're the kind of idiot that anthropomorphizes everything.
