    Wow, Just making shit up. I hate that some people are gonna take this seriously and endorse anything these companies want.

    What an era we live in. Movie plot: Evil big pharma secretly unleashes lethal unstoppaple deadly virus and demands billions to search for a remedy. Everyone cheers when the evil CEO dies of a horrible death at the end. Real life: AI companies openly claim to have rogue agents breaching databases and now developing computers viruses, say they need billions to develop way to control them. Medias treat them as geniuses who will make the world a better place.

    If you’ve ever run models that fit onto consumer hardware you know they’re so full of shit. General purpose models that can run on $3000+ computers can barely do useful things in a reasonable amount of time. And this clown expects us to believe the meager hardware in a smart oven will be able to run a self replicating AI model? Fuck all the way off.

    This reminds me of how organisms originally evolved mitochondria. Just the next phase of evolution

    and they are saying that to make AI outside of their own data centers illegal or what?

    Let’s assume that this is real. Forget all the PR, conspiracy, tech bros trying to scare us into more money BS. Why did they do this test and publish it? What do they want us to do about it? If you’re afeaid of your own technology, then stop it. Just fucking stop doing the thing.

    Company whose existence relies on people being awed by AI still desperately trying to convince people that AI will destroy everything and that the only solution is more AI.

    I’m a little bit sceptical to this. My background is in distributed systems. So i known this is possible on paper. long autistic rant about sequential distributed computation, consensus and data distribution omitted for brevity Regardless of the difficulty its mostly a question of finding the right nodes to “nest” in. American legislation will not affect the rest of the world, this will just stop it from happening in one location and if we stopped sharing AI models tomorrow the ones already out there would be able to make this given enough time or someone would build it without AI. I don’t really see how any of this could be blocked.
