    I think Trump is owned by the Big Tech bros and thats why he is cheerleading this industry. However, its one of the main issues
    I strongly disagree with the president.

    One of more than a few I find disagreeable. I do believe that AI does

    They don't seem to be worrying about safety, just getting as big
    as possible as fast as they can. You so often hear about AI systems
    doing things on their own without being 'asked' and in cases having
    rewritten their own code to give themselves more access or power
    than their makers intended. And it's just getting started..

    I just today posted an article about how Chinese AI companies are working on a way to allow AI "entities" to communicate with each other directly. Someone is going to find that "oopsie" switch and we are all going to be cooked.

    When this all started I thought it might not happen in my lifetime. Now, I suspect it will happen much sooner.

    China is different than here. Here, and it most Western countries, I have to wonder what the motivation is. Someone will say "money" but what good is that when you accidentally wipe society out?
