solving global warming is really simple: kill off all human beings.

i wonder how long ai algorithms will take to figure that out.

You could do it in order of CO2 footprint, which pretty much tracks wealth. I bet if you just killed off the top 1% you'd make a huge dent.

all these private jets

Global warming is already achieving that goal. It's a self-regulating system.

Except it's disproportionately killing those producing the least amount of global warming - I've yet to hear of a billionaire killed by global warming.

And it's also killing the rest of the biosphere in the process. Which wasn't doing so great to begin with.

If he's talking about the AI we have in any near future, it's not figuring anything out. But I think he's just saying whatever he can pull out of his ass to deflect attention from how his kind are the problem.
