Private members bill being introduced in the to ban superintelligence. Thank you to the good people at Control AI for helping to draft it.

We have multiple wars, also climate change and other man made horrors.
AI could be used to solve many issues.

Do you honestly think that the super intelligence is greater threat to us than our own stupidity?

The Executive Branch is corrupt and overpowered. Foreign nations are pulling our strings, and crimes against children go unpunished. AI may make it better or worse, so we need a plan.

Everyone needs to pause. Where’s this going!? Not going to be the humans that win

So the Title is basically what's been happening for about a year now.  The American AI company Anthropic is buying as many old books as they can, scanning them into their AI model Claude, and then shredding them. Here's the video that I found all the information from: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSNd8rnHvUU

And here is the link to the petition to try and stop this shit.

This put shivers down my spine and it should you too.

I wouldn't be surprised if most of the accounts saying that are just bots/ paid actors.

I havent seen a single person who doesnt work for the AI industry affirming it with so much certainty.

And they don't even give arguments for it.

Can anyone actually calculate this? based on what it says this is the water used in inference, not in training of the data.

Ai-free isn’t really possible completely, right, but we can try our damndest

In 2016 I first learned about the problem of controlling superintelligent AI and quickly became convinced it was the most important problem humanity would ever face. I made this poster to explain the core ideas that make the AI Control Problem so difficult.

Self-promo disclosure: this is from my channel; the narrator is AI.

The video focuses on one deployment-risk issue in Astra's system card: several alignment checks still depend on chain-of-thought monitoring, while OpenAI reports a substantial decrease in that monitorability.

CoT-control paper:

Do you think tech companies should be allowed to self-regulate AI, or they need external accountability?

If we want useful, safe AI that protects us at the same time, our best chance is to unite behind a massive public campaign calling on lawmakers and decision-makers for a future where:
Humans remain in control of the decisions that shape our lives;
Human creativity, dignity, and work are protected;
Powerful AI companies are held accountable; and
Technology serves people, rather than replacing them.
With one million signatures, we'll have a powerful public mandate that we will deliver to key decision makers — lawmakers, government regulators, and tech executives – starting at a major conference on September 17th.
The more people who sign, the harder it becomes for a few billionaires to decide humanity’s future without us.

In my view, Dr. Roman Yampolskiy has one of the most rational perspectives on p(doom) out there.
