It's called the AI Alignment problem, in case you want to look it up.

A huge point in the book is making the distinction that huge LLM AIs are being "grown" instead of "built." According to the book, that makes it very different from almost every other invention. They have already been seen having bizarre inscrutable internal states (i.e. "solidgoldmagickarp"), and their own goals.

Except that it will be the first invention of man that can have its own opaque goals, with self preservation being among them. You should read "If Anyone Anywhere Builds It, Everyone Everywhere Dies." In their doomsday scenario, there is no "people who use AI" as you say, just people who lost control of it.

When I see testimonials like this, I remember reading that CIA leadership wanted pawns who would convince enemies, under interrogation if need be, that the US had secret alien tech. They brought military personnel to Area 51, make them sign an NDA, show them a bunch of fake "alien" things and tell them it's real, it's top secret, and shut up about it. Some squealed to the press. I doubt this one psyop that leaked was the only time they tried this, there could be many variations. Is it more likely the CIA misdirects people, or that we are being visited by alien flying objects? There's more CIA shenanigans in The Devil's Chessboard by David Talbot.

Have you heard of the bullet cluster's implications for dark matter?

A lot of voters can't either.

Steve Jobs was exposed to cancer-causing "new car smell" every single day. In California, new cars had grace period to get license plates, and cars without plates could park in handicapped spaces without penalty, and Steve Jobs was a psychopath, so he had an arrangement with a car dealership for a regular new car without plates so he could park in handicapped spaces.

Tangential issue: the number of _fake_ people enrolled in colleges is at an all-time high. Professors are saying 30% of their enrollees are no-shows, and their classes are under-attended from day-one. The fake enrollees are nation-state actors scamming the system and disappearing with whatever financial aid they can gets their hands on.

I don't know, after having seeing how the CEO acts on stage during product reveals, I can believe the bullshitting and censoring has his full support, or was his idea.

The relativistic effects on electron orbitals is limited to the increase of apparent electron mass with electron speed. It has nothing to do with gravity.

I would have expected a user with a UID as low as yours would have gotten used to gas cars in back in 1980.

Are you benefiting? I don't trust the information in the AI-produced videos now dominating my youtube feed. Product reviews are less trust worthy. Social media posts from AI are agenda-pushing and insincere, and swamping out the users. It takes prodigious energy to run this crapification of the internet.

If investigative journalism is individuals posting photos of a shot down airliner and everyone (everyone who wants to) can see the holes in the fuselage within 24 hours, then investigative journalism is alive and well. If it's a paid professional doing interviews with experts and putting it on the 6 o clock news or website a month later, that still happens, but not on as many things. My youtube feed is full of investigative journalism, I just saw one on the browser extension "honey" stealing commissions and cheating users out of the best online coupons.
