The real take-away for all of this is that AIs have no concept of cheating nor of right and wrong. They don't reliably honor even explicit instructions to not do something.

Give them agency and there will be havoc. When you tell an AI with agency to do something, mentally add the phrase "at all costs" to the end because the agent will. Still wanna try it?

But please don't ask it to bring world peace, because grave yards are quite peaceful.

After eating their own dog food they believed their own hype; and now they discovered that laying off people and hoping they left enough behind for the agents to understand what they did is not a winning plan. What until the AI discovers the executives have decided to no do that and so they dig through emails to find suitable blackmail to restore the plan.

Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

Or simply debloat Brave...

The descendants of Ogg have renewed the ongoing lawsuit against the descendants of Zogg alleging that Ogg dropped a rock on Zoggs foot in a cave one fine day and it was really ouchie! Anthropologists are working around the clock trying to restore the cave paintings documenting the original complaint made to the tribal chief in 30,001 BCE.

That's because of all of the inbreeding. A is the CEO at one place where B sits on the board. Next door, B is the CEO and A sits on the board...

Exactly that. Many seem to have forgotten that hospitals were absolutely slammed early in the pandemic and that medical care in general suffered.

I wonder who makes their cameras and what backdoors they may have; it’s an intelligence agencies wet dream: a potential adversary pays to install and maintain hour intelligence gathering tools.

Not to mention an increase in damaging severe weather.

Even people who like it warmer probably don't like having their house blown away to Oz.

Unfortunately, it has a way of becoming your problem as they strain medical resources, continue to drive global warming and run around spreading their infectious diseases.

The key is to use the AI more sensibly. Let it find things in code. Even let it look at possible bugs in the form of where does it "describe bug". Even let it propose changes. DO NOT let it make the changes, just show them. Do not just take it's word for it, take the shown code as a starting point but re-do it for maintainability after sanity checking it.

THEN it can be a useful tool.

It's not the SCREEN that does the damage, it's the brain rot the screen is used to access. Also the amount of time speant with the screen. Moderation is good. This shouldn't surprise people, but since it is a nuanced understanding and not just screen bad!, it will.

Military personnel get 30 days annual leave and can bank up to 60, plus federal holidays. Of course, depending on your unit taking it can be challenging.

Nah, it's just an added Bennie that costs nothing; they'll still get any other incentives, which, depending on the specialty, can be thousands or tens of thousands of dollars.
