My attempts to come up with what this misogynistic creep would consider a “friendly superintelligence” keep resembling Elliot Rodger’s pre-shooting manifesto.

I also noticed the “.eth” crypto name drop. :agony-4horsemen:

    Ya, like Rokos Basilisk is just a scary story the techbros tell each other in the present to try and get people working in AI. It really dosen’t follow that once the AI is created it will fulfill its part of this story and waste a shitton of energy eternally torturing people. Like the all powerful future AI is not beholden to a fairy tale a bunch of dorks were telling each other, it would acutally be a very stupid AI if it did that.

      these aren’t the techbros that know about AI either AI is actually quite boring and mainly involves computers doing statistics based on past results to generate predictions. These people learned about AI from star trek.

      It’s the computer science equivalent of some guy talking about the dangers potentially posed by lightsabers
