@nixCraft@mastodon.social The owners should accept making AI a public good for the benefits of the world.

@nixCraft@mastodon.social Job losses either with UBI or Guillotines. If they really think AI will replace a significant amount of jobs, 10% or more of them then I don't see the population staying quiet and just accepting that.

@nixCraft@mastodon.social Why should we do anything whatsoever "for the benefits of AI?" Instead, and for the benefit of human beings, let's avoid so-called "AI."

@nixCraft@mastodon.social Sam Altman is a con man. The fact that the world at large seems to take him on his word is a true testimony to how dire a situation we're all in right now. I get that kids believe all his bs, but grown ass journalists should have the ability for some bare minimum critical thinking, at least if you lived through the dot com bubble. There are plenty scientists that debunk all the blah blah this man utters on a daily basis, but they aren't feeding the narrative I guess... 🤷

@nixCraft@mastodon.social Yeah, it's pretty much the same argument Charlie Kirk made about gun violence 🤷♂️

@nixCraft@mastodon.social The other take away from this “article” is that Altman and Amodei want regulation over all the theoretical, made up damage that AI will never do to humanity in future, but none on the actual damage it’s doing to the environment and economy right now.

@nixCraft@mastodon.social What if people don't want to accept bad things happening to >90% of us for the benefit of <1% of us, and our counter offer is bad things happen to the 1% for the benefit of the 90+%? Something to ponder.

@nixCraft@mastodon.social When I explain to my colleagues and coworkers that effective altruism-longtermism think tanks in tech defend that it is ethical to harm a lot of people today if it permits building science fiction technologies that will benefit billions of yet inexistent humans who will live in the next centuries, they look as me like I'm some sort of conspiracy lunatic. But this is exactly what they are always saying! In the front pages! And yet nobody wants to acknowledge this is a political trend!
