A very important article that I hope everyone reads. Thanks for providing your insider knowledge to this topic, Jim. Fascinating to hear what's really going on. I can now avoid the coming deluge of false PR , thank God. Musk, Thiel and Altman need to be divested of all national power. Somehow.

I stopped at the link to the article "Something Big..." to read it, and my eyes widened, my heart beat faster and I thought Holy Shit, have we been wrong about AI? Then I continued reading your article and felt a lot better. Thanks, Jim.

Suicidal Accelerationism - this is how I feel when I think about $5 trillion invested in this shit - our planet cannot possibly survive this, there is absolutely no consideration for environmental protection. They don’t give a fuck bc they think they are just flying to the moon to live out their wretched lives

Wondering if AI can be corrupted just through searches. If enough searches are created with specific wording, would it confuse AI and cause AI to assemble nonsense answers

Thank you, Jim. That was a good heads up.

AI has never really interested me. I invest in boring stuff.

That article terrified me and I sent it to family, my 401k investors and I went down a doomsday path that I've been down before with AI so it was good to get this perspective. I see and understand how it can be marketing.

"What we’re seeing increasingly in AI is what we’ve already seen in cryptocurrency—not a movement to find a useful technology, but a cult devoted to finding God in the metaverse."

That's as good a place as any to find God. In fact, the only place. Beware all evangelists.
