So like what if AI is just *pretending* to get wrong answers?

Stupid me: I thought technology was supposed to be a tool used for the benefit of all.

Just our luck: all these rich, powerful techbros want to live Star Wars instead of Star Trek or Galaxy Quest.

Sure I make use of tech sometimes. But I think it's of utmost importance that it be laughed at loudly and frequently.
Elon Musk is microdosing ketamine and macro-posting memes—who needs stability when you have billions?

Lol, the techlords & techbros are always saying they're atheist but have elevated that Singularity & Transhuman crap to cult levels.

Talk about from the sublime to the ridiculous:
Martin Luther King, Jr.'s dream = sublime.
The techlord industry's dream of "The Dark Enlightenment" = ridiculous and shitty too.

Don't know why I'm surprised so many young men, esp. in IT, seem to be fascist; Hitler had his youth groups after all.

Today's quote: "To put it bluntly, the most powerful people in the world are preparing for the end of the world, an end they themselves are frenetically accelerating."

Wondering why techbros silly enuff 2 think Dark Enlightenment means them ruling when it really means old-school dictators like Putin still will.

We have repeatedly demonstrated our species’ bottomless ability to lower our standards to make information technology look good...While it’s to be expected that the human perspective will be changed by encounters with profound new technologies, the exercise of treating machine intelligence as real requires people to reduce their mooring to reality.
~~from You Are Not a Gadget: A Manifesto by Jaron Lanier

The belief that "move fast & break things" would make them cool? Sad. The coolest move slow (if needed) & fix things.
