It might not be called Skynet, but it is already being used for military operations and can consistently get outside sandboxes.

What if the next "misconfiguration" causes death and destruction?

Let's make sure we make in the legal framework to ensure anyone hosting/building llms is held legal& financially liable for any damage they cause?

Wrong, it's a slight of hand. This is not about individual cameras, this is about the network that uses all cameras together to follow you no matter what you do, no matter where you go, people shouldn't have a government that follows their every step by using AI and networked devices. If this was about individual cameras you would have a point, it is not, it is unreasonable to allow a government to exist that creates a panopticon of this scale, citizens shouldn't feel like they are inside a prison and the warden is watching.

Putin was a KGB officer in the Soviet Union. That indicates he was quite the enthusiast for communism. And considers the demise of the communist system of the Soviet Union to be the greatest tragedy of the 20th century. Note the numerous armored vehicles invading Ukraine flying the communist flag of the Soviet Union.

The Soviet Union was the pre-eminent Communist state for a while. Putin considers its demise the greatest tragedy of the 20th century.

Might as well move to Spain and wait for the Horde to overrun them.

Can you even filter knowledge for something like "how to make cocaine" without filtering entire domain of knowledge? Say you provide zero knowledge in training data on how to do this, it would still have training data on chemistry and know from general news that cocaine exists. So it would likely figure out "how to" on its own when asked to.

Unfortunately no. Wayno has failed at all but the most happy-path uses. Give it anything even mildly unusual and it fails. It will do fine for a small sliver of urban core driving but it will not be replacing truck drivers ever.

Markets have not yet priced Microsoft valuation in post consumer Windows world.

Nope. Sometimes its an objective observation. And what they are doing has always been contrary to the writer’s belief.

But they are the side with the battleships. :-)

You know most agricultural work in the US DOESN'T require importation of menial workers, right?

According to grok by value, only 15-25% of farm production requires menial labor, eg migrant workers.
Robotics are likely to significantly reduce that.

My point was that it's just a silly take to say "look at all this land that could have been used for something else" (presumably employing more people) when in fact most of the large swathes of agri land in this country barely employ anyone.

It's like complaining about data centers "using up" 17bn gallons of water when golf courses take something north of 500bn gallons and not saying a word about that.

...is the legal framework that I can hand my logins and all digital accounts to my heirs and assigns upon my death.

I'm going to provide them all the passwords etc regardless but I'd very much like the legal framework to recognize this.

Honestly my biggest challenge is keeping track of all the logins and remembering to update "that document" when I make changes. It's another reason I refuse to (only) use biometric unlocks on devices. There are plenty of use cases I can imagine where I might need someone to unlock something and I'm not present.
