Sorry if this is unsolicited, but I decided to put a bit more rigour into it and check the average of 100 netflix documentary trailers from here

And make a chart.

That dot on the top right is the AI doc.
The dot on the bottom right is UNKNOWN: Killer Robots
The dot on the top is American Symphony
In both of those instances they’re comparable on one axis but not the other.
So basically if this chart’s correct there’s definitely cause for suspicion. Moreso anyway.

Edit: I made a typo in the data, which gave UNKNOWN: Killer Robots and UNKNOWN: Cosmic Time Machine a higher View Per Like ratio than it should have. Here’s the new chart:

The new Furthest right are now
American Nightmare
and
Will & Harper

With my extremely scientific method of “clicking on trailers for random documentaries and seeing the ratios” the like-to-view ratio is typically in a range from 1-10 to 1-100. The biggest outlier I saw was probably Will & Harper at about 1-400. The AI Doc is about 1-800. Also interesting is the comments. Will & Harper has about 6400 comments while the AI Doc only has 640, which would be comparable to something like Murder in Monaco, a documentary trailer with about a tenth of the views (and also has a comparable amount of likes).

I’ll believe it when I see it.

You could also technically do all of that debugging before you even get to the moon, though. Also has the added benefit of not dying if something goes awry.

Well, sure, but that was six months ago.

So basically subreddit simulator?

You can eat paint. You shouldn’t, but you can. He also has a court date so that’s quite the dedication if it was a stunt.

Dubai is in the United Arab Emirates, not Saudi Arabia.

Do they really think that using these scummy tactics will somehow result in more positive opinions towards AI?

Well, where would someone complain about their scummy tactics? All the places where they could have were shut down.

So, I’m not an expert study-reader or anything, but it looks like they took some questions from the MMLU, modified it in some unspecified way and put it into 3 categories (AI, human, AI-human), and after accounting for skill, determined that people with higher theory of mind had a slightly better outcome than people with lower theory of mind. They determined this based on what the people being tested wrote to the AI, but what they wrote isn’t in the study.
What they didn’t do is state that people with higher theory of mind are more likely to use AI or anything like that. The study also doesn’t mention empathy at all, though I guess it could be inferred.

Not that any of that actually matters because how they determined how much “theory of mind” each person had was to ask Gemini 2.5 and GPT-4o.

Chariots of the Gods was released in 1968. I think that ship may have sailed decades ago.

Out of all of the things he did, that is one of those things.

Do you mean the retweets or actual replies? Because I’m not seeing any replies to his comment, even in xcancel.

Btw “Don’t Die” is a Bryan Johnson adjacent longevity community slogan which the writer is very likely to have seen often around twitter

Or it could be a reference to what often is said before the start of a match of a video game (though they probably left out “kick ass” for marketing purposes).

Edit: actually, considering that, maybe there’s a reveal at the end that they’re in the Basilisk torture sim, so… there might be something there?

The response to his paper in the video seems to imply that, at least in the paper, he is more explicit about AI lacking the requirements of consciousness.

“An investigator from the San Francisco Public Defender’s Office lawfully served a subpoena on Mr. Altman because he is a potential witness in a pending criminal case,” spokesperson Valerie Ibarra said in a statement to SFGATE.

In a post on X, the group wrote that one of their public defenders had managed to serve Sam Altman with a subpoena, requiring him to testify at their upcoming trial. They explained that the case involves their previous non-violent demonstrations, including blocking the entrance and the road in front of OpenAI’s offices on multiple occasions.

“All of our non-violent actions against OpenAI were an attempt to slow OpenAI down in their attempted murder of everyone and every living thing on earth.”

So it’s not because he’s being prosecuted.
