That's what I'm talking about! People just pretend like it's not the most interesting, crazy thing in the world. It's gonna hit em over the head eventually and they're going to wonder what happened.

These people are Gen X, tree. They are practically boomers. Not like us zoomers.

I've been listening to a lot of smart people talk about this. There is an alignment problem. We have no way of tethering it to our interests. We don't know how it works, fundamentally. It's a disaster waiting to happen. The only solution is to merge, which right now isn't possible, because there's a bandwidth problem.

You have to put this in terms that the Star Wars brains will understand. Is AI going to be Palpatine, or Baby Yoda? Hard to say.

I guess that's me, but it's not pretend at all.

The AI stuff in particular just seems totally uninteresting.

True AI would be that which uses tools.

Though a paperclip maximizer would also be regarded as a tool I guess, in the same way a nuclear bomb would
