I am generally opposed to capital punishment but I now concede there's a strong case for applying the death penalty to anyone who intentionally pursues a line of R&D that they *believe* will lead to the extinction of the human species.
And Sam Altman and the AI bros are standing on the trapdoor.

I just donated to help SPIDER-MAN, who took on nazi scumbags trying to invade Minneapolis again. Arrested by our local cops (boooo) who were diligently defending their racist turd pals.

I'm so sorry for everyone that doesn't know about this, but you need to know about this
Everyone on here is filled with a fresh batch or loathing for JK Rowling, so it seems like a good time to bring up that a shockingly large number of leaders within the AI world know each other because they were all part of a niche fandom that centered around a pretentious Harry Potter fanfic.

This is a very good thread.
I recently watched Iron Man (2008) for the first time in over a decade, and it's a real lightbulb moment to realize that every executive, business bro and tech guy currently obsessed with using ChatGPT or Claude or whatever thinks they're like Tony Stark talking to Jarvis

The short version: Zuckerberg is a sociopath, Meta is garbage, and we don't hate him and his company enough. BUT, you should read the entire thread from Cory Doctorow, who has been on fire stripping bare how power corrupts and how corruption corrodes.
I'm sure that working in social media - dealing with people as mass statistical abstractions - is a cognitohazard, the sort of thing that could make anyone a little solipsistic, convinced that everyone else is a kind of stimulus-responding automaton lacking the interiority that you experience.

Shout it from the rooftops
Finally, there's an *economic* coin-trick: "AI will destroy jobs." Sure, yes, AI is destroying jobs. But there's a vast difference between "You got fired because an AI can do your job" and "You got fired because your boss was convinced that the AI can do your job, even though it *cannot*."

The movie TEASER TRAILER can be an art form all of its own and we’ve pulled together some of our all-time favourites. To start, a classic. Inside the Terminator factory that teased TERMINATOR 2: JUDGMENT DAY (1991).

Due to a combination of strong exchange rates and low prices/no shipping from Book Depository, I bought about 15 copies of World War Z as birthday gifts between 2007 and 2010.
