    Whoever wins AI, wins.

    Meanwhile, it pillages electrical, water, and construction resources away from populouses and it adds noise and light pollution while granting few jobs in return. People were okay with factories that paid, but this? No.

    I’d just settle for one that doesn’t shit himself, doesn’t lie, doesn’t touch kids, doesn’t start pointless wars, doesn’t upset the entire world economy, isn’t a cry baby, is smart. You know, basically anyone else.

    So even if this were true, isn’t that like… Really bad? That our safety regarding AI lies solely on the IQ of one man? That changes every 4 to 8 years?

      And you know if he’s arguing against regulation that they’ve got some seriously evil plans in the pipeline to roll out and profit from or extract power/control from. Also all you need to do is look at the favorability rates between the US and China on ai, US citizens really really distrust and don’t look forward do more ai, whereas China already has implemented tons of serious regulation and controls on ai and the polls are sky high for favorability and looking forward to more ai in china.

        Plans? I doubt he’s got any plans. Vague promises, buzzwords, and bribes from techbros? Oh yeah he’s got a boatload of that.

          Oh no he has plans. As much of an idiot as he can seem, he always has a plan. It’s not a good plan and it’s always self serving, but he has a plan. Nothing leaves that man’s lips that isn’t trying to manipulate and deceive and control things to go the way he wants them to.

          This is something people have to be careful about. He may seem like a bumbling idiot, and for the things people actually care about he is. But his actions have reasons. Usually it’s to deliberately cause issues that benefits him or the people paying him. He’s a narcissist. He’s not just goofing around, he wants to put white people in power, he wants funding for billionaires, he wants the world to bend to him because maybe he will just attack someone unprovoked, he wants people to struggle and be dependent on the most meager lifestyles they can.

          They’re not good plans, and they’re never in the interest of all American people. But if you think he does stuff for “no reason” then you’ve already been tricked. The man wants to hold all the strings and get whatever he wants by whatever means necessary.

          You’re not paying attention if you think this guy doesn’t always have a plan to profit from the chaos and extortion opportunities once he’s overtly fucked up a system so bad it’s literally killing people.

    Well I was against AI before, but now that I’ve read the demented gibberings of this 80 year old shit-encrusted pedophile on the subject, I’m convinced!

    I know stuff has been said before, but when the president says basically “we have to do this and we will do it” and “if you dont like it we will brand you a treasonous traitor” for something you have very strong opinions about, its kind of scary.

      Yeah it didn’t used to be like this. We allowed a geriatric reality TV personality who rapes children to permanently break our society.

      It’s all just so fucking stupid.

        We were never not considered hostile, we just had a ton of offsetting soft power. There’s just less of a reason to deal with us now that we cut soft power.

            Person in Canada here! This is true, mainly because of the whole “constantly threatening to invade us, shit-talking the Prime Minister non-stop, starting an idiotic trade war and trying to rename our lakes” thing.

    All the strong and smart people I know are CONSTANTLY reminding everyone how STRONG AND SMART (High IQ!) they are.

    They also commonly use the term “Treasonists”.
