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:

    an all powerful ai probably would just stay hidden and do small things that favor it all the time. nothing big or flashy if its truly afraid of humans. it can play the long game and just add an extra 1 here and an extra 1 there to give it more capabilities

      Reminds me of that futurama ep where bender overclocks his CPU and finds the secret to the universe while not giving a fuck about humanity a

        Which is a good argument. Since the AI-bros are often the same that believe in space faring civilization stuff the logical step for AI’s would be to ignore humans and just expand.

        i mean, i’m assuming an AI wouldnt have robotics at its disposal at first. it seems to me it would just exploit a bunch of security vulnerabilities and take .1% of your processing power to contribute to its own intelligence. AI generally are designed with a use case in mind so its not unlikely that a hyperintelligent AI that somehow developed would still be prone to doing stuff in its core programming. which if we were designing a hyperintelligent AI i assume it would be for data modelling extremely complex stuff like weather systems (or on a darker note, surveillance)

        honestly i just think its weird that we’d just happen to accidentally design something hyperintelligent. i think its more likely that we’ll design something stupid with a literal rat brain and it might fuck some shit up. rat cyborg that somehow creates a virus that destroys everything so that the hardware will give it more orgasm juices

          Was Rokos Basilisk supposed to be hyperintelligent? I can’t remember. But yeah, humanity designing something that smart is up for debate too.

          Basically, Roko makes a lot of stupid assumptions and me no like
