Or simply that they may have been induced to continue Trumps thwarted persecution of Anthropic through other means.

I can recommend Ublock Origin, Privacy Badger and NoScript used together, they sure quiet this place down.

Trained on the totality of recorded human activity and they're not getting a kind and gentle AI?

The hilarious thing is that all the subsequent generations - with the exception of Gen Z - made the same mistakes, ignored the same warnings and differed the same measures as the Boomers did, no difference at all. As for Gen Z, they do not hold political power and they sound just like the Boomer kids did when they were young held no political power.

So if you are not Gen Z. take a look in the mirror when you start hurling blame. If you are Gen Z, I hope you hang on to your principals as you age.

I'm sure the estimated half million Russians who have died fighting in Ukraine have no great love for their kleptocratic regime either, still, technically it's also an all volunteer army. Offering 5 years wages for signing, and half that again as a death benefit to your family has kept the ranks filled to the point that commanders squander them on a regular basis. Not so long ago Musk was paying a million for a single vote, I think we can manage it.

I think the point is that the vast majority of Google users have no clue about how it works, or even what google really is, and so would be vulnerable to manipulative lies - which AI can output on a massive scale. An actual danger to humanity is a rare thing for a Tech Master to admit about their work, it's better to encourage this attitude than ridicule it

You have to offend more than one person to get (and stay) modded down in /. , even if you believe you're posting the truth

Nothing sinister, just a friendly visit at a local tea shop.

Not even close and never at the presidential level. It's one thing to overthrow a foreign government at the behest of the National Fruit Company, but something entirely different to personally accept $400M gifts from foreign powers, to use the power of office to manipulate markets to personal advantage - let alone continuing to play them - or to set up a digital currency exchange that facilitates anonymous bribes. This term is unique in so many ways.

Standard predigested response for any attempt to protect children from greed. "It's not about the kids. It's all about me - me and my freedom".
