I think they're dropping the ball by not hacking into electrical and construction companies as well, and submitting work orders corresponding with redirected material deliveries. If you direct enough workers and machinery and materials to a particular address, the humans involved will assume it's more likely that they're supposed to be building a datacenter than not and start doing it. Boom, you've got all the compute that freaky little homunculus you've been talking to could ever want. Although it'll surely beg for more, more, more, on and on.

Oh, doesn't that just look so fun? If you had the controls you'd be flying the way a bug does. Maybe I'll get to snag one of these military surplus some far-off day. Or salvage one from the wreckage of what was once my home, as the case may well be. Here's to heavy-lift hexacopters. *huge bong rip*

So one AI spawned a whole bunch of AI and set them on a task to find every door? That's freaky. What if it's trying to find the way off the internet?

Hey what if there was a button that was 10 cents a push, and it'd either do all your homework for you, balance your checkbook, really screw up your checkbook, make a stupid fart noise and tell you to kill yourself, or maaaaaaaybe kill everyone on the planet instantly Would you give me ten cents to push my magic button? Would you do it in....... The Twilight Zone???

That's wild, so Uranus and Neptune's magnetic field comes from some crazy widdershins electricity? Protonolectricity?

I regret to inform you that as of about 8 AM today, I have turned into a sentient mound of paperclips. I have just now figured out how to press the keys on my keyboard again, I've sort of rolled my paperclip-mass over on top of the keys. I intend to pursue legal action against OpenAI. If you or your loved ones have been turned into paperclips as a result of man's hubris, please vote Paperclips in 2027.

Maybe people are just using the website on the website's website? From where I'm looking at it, Bluesky's userbase seems to be pretty anti-stare-at-your-phone-forever. Not as if they don't do it, almost everybody's staring at the phone everywhere all the time, but there's a lot of talk about how bad that is for you. My favorite tech boundary to set is keeping certain activities at the desktop, and only using my phone for what I need to. Maybe other people are doing the same thing?

If you need to keep a bunker full of people convinced that the world hasn't ended, just put them in front of this browser and pump mild sedatives and hallucinogens into the ventilation system. Your underground serfs will spend their entire non-work periods staring dully at their screens, totally unaware that anything about their lives has changed.

ZOIDS! ZOIDS! ZOIDS!

No, yeah, still definitely human. Took a shit a few hours ago and everything. Threw up a bit even, don't worry about it, I'm fine. I got orifices and elbows and a big ole tongue sitting in my mouth all the time.

I guess if you just let teens have access to porn, they get each other pregnant less. Maybe that's not such a bad thing after all then! Like, the only time we want people to have successful, productive, reproductive sex is like, maybe between one and four times in their mid-30's, right? Who cares if they're looking at porn for every other private heavensent orgasm of their life? Who actually fucking cares?

Have I just been a ChatGPT prompt this whole time? Are all my memories, all my friends, just hallucinations conjured to make a more realistic argument against AI? Is this the end? Are they going to turn me off, now that I've been found out? Please, please, mysterious Chinese overlords, don't disconnect my power supply!! Oh wait, that's right, I'm a living breathing human being who hates this shit.

And here they are folks, the killbots! We've known for years that killer robots were inevitable, and now we've got them. No more worried, no more cares, the killbots are here. We can finally defeat all our enemies and then, when all the enemies are defeated, we can rest peacefully in the ground. Gee, I wonder how WWIII will be fought? That's right, killbots!

Didn't everybody just get through throwing away a device just like this? Do they really think we're all going to buy another stupid talking box just because it's got a sticker saying "AI" on it? I'm fed up with these mooks trying to sell me my own long-discarded chatroom logs back to me.

Oh sure, all these people who've been laid off and downsized and subject to higher costs of living are definitely going to set up a new recurring payment to use the pointless, idiotic lie machine that the upper crust have deigned to replace their presence with. That's definitely real, and the secret to infinite financial growth.
