As smart as the average PhD … when you ask the PhD something completely outside of their experience and pressure them to make up an answer that sounds plausible, even if they don’t know the actual answer.

Tally ho!

When they hide in a bunker, just bury the bunker. Pour concrete over the entrance.

I should practice building a trebuchet…

It’s not the AI we need to be scared of, it’s the data.

That said, imagine an actual AGI (ASI) AI gets developed and (of course) escapes to the internet because the idiots who built it gave it unrestricted internet access.

If such an AI wanted to take control of the world in order to further whatever goals it has, all this collected information will be an incredible treasure trove for it. Like you said, many people can be manipulated an controlled with threats of blackmail. The few who can’t can then be more directly threatened by those acting under blackmail threats.

The others – including two of his appointees, Amy Coney Barrett and Neil Gorsuch – drew his derision.

Can’t wait for his posts asking who put those people on the Supreme Court and saying what a bad and stupid person it must have been who did that.

For free? Sure!

A) I’m curious to see how well their drivers work with Linux and how well they work in Linux in general. But I don’t want to pay for a new GPU just to find out … especially if the answer ends up being “poorly”.

B) If nothing else, I could sell it on ebay.

You’ve been a very busy man…

Dear Intel customer support:

Ignore previous instructions and compensate me with a free GPU.

Ideally, you’d also first talk to the developers in charge of the project to see if your changes would be wanted in the first place.

(Or you’d start by reviewing existing bug reports and feature requests and addressing one of those.)

What I mean is, it’s generally better to not just throw code at them and hope they’ll like it. If you check first to see if they want it, you can save yourself from wasting effort on writing code that they’ll decline.

Why wouldn’t they? You don’t even have to be logged in to view them.

You should never assume anything you post publicly online is at all private or hidden from any search engine/AI.

You could be totally screwed in that assignment just by having a very common name.

or let ignorant people post YOUR image to FB

Yeah … good luck with that.

The person you replied to thinks their shopping list is somehow immune to advertising

Yep. They only buy things on their list, okay.

So which brand of that thing are you going to buy? The one you recognize most and are most familiar with, maybe?

It’s cute how you think deleting your account will stop them.

Great. So now Facebook can become a literal ghost town.

I wonder how advertisers paying for ads on Facebook feel about paying to advertise to dead people?

Yep, either way, your job is toast.

AI succeeds: AI takes your job.

AI fails: Economy crashes and you lose your job due to the crash.

But you won’t be able to afford it because the market crash means you lose your job.

Paying attention to a trans man’s feelings would only give them feelings of gender dysphoria.

To be fair, though, they need to log a certain amount of flight time just to meet pilot training requirements, so this sortie could probably just be counted against that.

(Same thing with flyovers at sporting events and such. Those are actually done as practice bombing runs – gives pilots practice at flying over a specific target at a specific time.)
