Beep boop
JFC this is what we're destroying the environment for?
Yep!
. . . Well that and the oil industry.
I sat in a brief on this, and while it definitely was hyped up a bit and strategically poked by humans to get some responses, the overall takeaway is that I'm fucking terrified of what's to come with AI... and I work in AI research...
I never imagined how stupid the average AI user would be.
Like, just the amount of trust, sycophancy, and blind faith they put in these things is terrifying. OpenClaw is the worst though. Imagine just throwing money into the money furnace for … this??
How is the average AI user stupid? I think that's just... your average human in general. Some extremely smart people that make amazing use of it, most that are reasonable and use it for some things but know their limits, and some that have entire relationships with an AI or kill themselves due to it.
Assume you have to vote for the next US president: There are just a few candidates left:
What would you choose..I'd be happy if AI would be the only thing to worry about...
Assuming Trump was legally able to run, and if it's only those 5 choices, I would probably go with the company that's the least evil. I don't know which one that is for now. Definitely not Grok or Trump.
to be honest, i think most LLMs would do better in politics than actutal politicians. The problem I have with it is that I don't write the prompts...
