That would require an ability to find one’s buttocks with both hands.

I heard this and he has that annoying, nasal staccato voice like Ben Shapiro. Gish gallop pro.

Bit of a pain in the gulliver mum. Leave us be and I’ll try and sleep it off. And then I’ll be right as dodgers for this after...

If you have to make the claim you’re “pro-Semite”, is it safe to assume some of your best friends are black?

Looking forward to CNN’s Townhall with chatGPT hologram Hitler.

Can’t we just get that Civil War thing over with already?  Like the first failure to split the union, America’s white supremacists have amassed weapons and are openly legislating against a minority of the citizenry while pushing stochastic terror. We the people could wrap this up in about three days with a web browser and fleet of drones. Let’s just light ‘em up and be done with it.

Thomas might actually resign if it would get Ginni out of a prosecution or conviction. I can’t see anything else persuading him though.

AI doesn’t kill humans...bad humans with AI kill humans.

@futurism

I love how they leave out the part about exactly HOW AI is going to kill us. When it becomes “sentient”? Really? That’s not vague at all. And what method will AI use to kill us? Assault weapons? Biowarfare? Leaving the salmon mousse out too long and serving it at a dinner party?

I have an idea! How about if when we make extraordinary claims about the dangers of AI we back those claims with evidence. Or at least useful, realistic thought experiments.

@Matthew

I heard Geoffrey Hinton talking about not wanting to work on AI anymore, because he feared it was going to become “intelligent”. I’m convinced that computer programmers need to take philosophy courses to expand their view of what the terms “consciousness” and “intelligence” actually mean. A little Socrates could go a long way.

@Teri_Kanefield

As a recovering catholic I would flog myself for my gross insensitivity. I salute your resolve!

When the Democrats control the House and there’s a Republican president, why don’t they hold the budget hostage by threatening to default on the debt ceiling unless taxes are raised on millionaires and billionaires?

@froomkin

Name a person(s) you feel has a good sense of humor and what is it they do that makes you laugh.

@luis_in_brief

It would be interesting to have a chatbot attuned to find/flag instances of two or more news sources with different or contradicting narratives of the same event. It would either confuse things more or help to point out the BS compared to consensus.

With a finite number of plots and almost infinite computer power, Kurt Vonnegut would be unfazed if AI syntaxed him out of a job. “And so it goes” he’d say. But he’d also say: “a purpose of human life, no matter who is controlling it, is to love whoever is around to be loved...” Wake me up when AI replaces moms.
