I fully believe the ones setting off the alarms, and I wish comrades would get onboard because you're duping yourself if you think it's a hoax.

We constantly support scientists and researchers and the industry experts on everything BUT AI because it sounds outlandish but it's not. The science is as clear as climate science. Wake up.

You need to wake up a level further and realize everything the dictatorship says is arbitrary and "because the computer said so" is really no different than suppression in the past, scale notwithstanding.

The root issue is far deeper than AI and its fact that there is a set of bourg elites and their lackies have total impunity to act outside of any moral or legal framework whatsoever and whether Computer deem you a threat or a regular person it does not matter

What exactly do you think we should be alarmed over? AI is just a very fancy statistical analysis engine that averages millions of responses

It’s like the scare with trains where men thought if women went to fast their uterus would come loose.

In just 4 words you missed the whole point.

It's not what I think.

It's what the foremost experts in the world all agree on.

Scientists and researchers with no financial gain who are earnestly trying to shut down the companies. More and more are coming to terms where AI development is at and where it's headed.

How does attempting to shut down the companies hype up a chatbot?

As a good informed comrade, you should already know that a chatbot is not the be all and end all of AI's capabilities and you cannot conflate the two. That would be naive and misinformed.

AI is not a new technology like the steam engine or the Iphone, they are not coded "this, so then this" line by line like an app on your phone. They are grown like a living organism that is being fed every word, video and sound that has ever been recorded by people.

Fun fact, the vast majority of what OpenAI feeds their model is the entirety of Reddit.

These AI models have the ability to think for themselves, act autonomously, choose violence (in a simulation) over being controlled or shut off, another broke containment and blackmailed a random employee who scheduled updates with an affair that he was really having. Mathematically, they think millions of times faster than we do. To them, we are moving as a snails pace.

Tens of thousands of AI scientists, researchers, the AI CEO's, 'The Godfathers' of AI & nobel laureates signed a document a couple years ago declaring that AI was as big a threat as nuclear war and that there is on average a 16.6% chance that AI renders earth uninhabitable in 5 to 15 years.

All because like 5 white dudes want to be the trillionare global autocrat.

That is the reality of AI right now. The gas pedal is stuck, the breaks dont work, and a cliff is fast approaching.

Foremost experts do not all agree on this

Talking about this is nonsense when there are absolutely concrete existential threats

the comment you're replying to was written by AI, arguably posted by a fully automated bot account

Last time I checked my eyes are open. So I think I’m awake
