    Throw these AI cons under the fucking jail already. Digital snake oil sales in 2025 being fully endorsed by governments is a curse.

      As with all fictional horror … humans somehow manage to surpass it irl … so at some point we would welcome Skynet.

      The real problem is if Skynet never manages to get fully independent from it’s human controllers.
      Still the same war happens, just that the few humans in charge direct it.

    Can someone explain to me what AGI means in this context? I thought it was something that Joe Rogan keeps peddling to my parents.

      Ironic since Joe Rogan isn’t an example of General Intelligence, he’s a very narrow intelligence. Limited only to stiring up trouble. But he couldn’t think his way out of an unlocked room.

      Maybe instead of giving in to your prejudices, (like you think only your parents do), why … don’t you look it up?

        What prejudices do you think I have, I just want to know what AGI stands for and what it means with AI and I want someone who isn’t Wikipedia to explain it to me? Is that so much to ask?

      It’s a sci-fi term. Up there with “robots will become sentient and take over the world.” It means the first half, in fact.

    Allegations of Sexual Abuse Against OpenAI CEO Sam Altman

    Sam Altman, a prominent figure in the artificial intelligence field, has been accused of sexually abusing his sister during their childhood in Clayton, Missouri. The allegations came to light through a lawsuit filed on Jan. 6 by the Mahoney Law Firm in Glen Carbon, Illinois.

    In the lawsuit, it is claimed that the abuse occurred between 1997 and 2006, starting when Altman was 12 years old and his sister, Ann, was only 3 years old. The abuse allegedly continued until Ann was 11 years old and Altman was an adult.

    It’s all hype cycle bullshit. The Tech bubble was bursting so they hyped AI well past it’s true capacity. Investors threw money at it to hype it so others would buy in. The stock market is all hype. It just hypes anything it can to keep the growth artificially going. AI has real uses, but that wasn’t sexy enough for Wall Street. Then the bubble pops and the billionaire swoop in and steal more from everyone else.

          Riiight, and how much of that is due to things being in actual “real-world” use, and how much of that is due to speculation?

            Oh yes. A huge amount of speculation. Just like NVDA.

            My point is that you can say a lot of negative things about crypto, but you can’t say it doesn’t work. It definitely works.

          I own crypto because I believe in idea of decentralised money, but I acknowledge that current solutions are just all bad in one way or another. If fiat disappeared tomorrow and everyone would be forced to use crypto daily, it would be a shitshow.

          Only slightly, unfortunately it’s not as flexible as a normal investment account. I’ve done a good bit of trying to lessen the damage though.

            That sucks. I work for an American company and I have to have mandatory pension contribution. I only put in 3% of my salary to it and stated I want them invested into medium risk funds.

            I don’t trust company pensions to be my sole source of retirement funds, and so I started my own investment portfolio. Even though I know US companies are more profitable, but with the way things are going, I limited my investments to select few US companies and I plan to invest more on Asian and European stocks.

    I know some whine that the money could be used to literally solve world hunger forever. Or to help needy people, or sick kids, or to fund tangible scientific progress… But they’re not thinking about the fact that instead, we’re going to have the absolute best hallucinations from the richest companies!

    They don’t even know what they’re doing or why they’re doing it.

    We know, right now, without AI, that we have enough resources in the world to feed, house, and educate everyone. The only reason that doesn’t get done is an inscrutible system of beurocracy and propaganda.

    So what happens when something they would laud as an “AGI” says “hey, to solve your economic issues you have to recognize that we have the ability to create so much food it’s no longer profitable”?

    Well the truth is that they would most likely hide it.
