A short explanation of why AI might kill everyone: AI may soon be much smarter than humans. When it is, it will be in control. If you were put in a classroom of kindergartners, you would be the one in charge. Once AI has the robots to build and maintain everything it needs, we will become useless to it.
But keeping us alive will impose enormous costs. We need clean air, water, and food. The fastest, cheapest ways to build more computing power could produce enough pollution to poison the biosphere. Humans have a reason to avoid that: we depend on the biosphere. AI won’t. Unless it values our survival, preserving the conditions we need to live will be a cost it has no reason to pay. Building what it wants as cheaply as possible would mean poisoning the biosphere and killing everyone.
We’re not programming AI’s values line by line. We’re training it without really understanding what it is learning to want. We’re giving control to something we don’t understand, something that will have no intrinsic need for us, and something that will easily be able to wipe us out. This is crazy, but it’s what we’re doing, even as some of the people building AI tell us it’s crazy.

@TheAnfieldTalk@Ahmadoubamba36 Oh JFC! When I saw El Hadji Diouf trending, I had nightmare flashbacks.
This guy might be a nice bloke and all, but I can’t see many replica shirts being sold IF it was to come true.
@D_Blanchflower @Otto_English Prof B, IMO no one is outraged, it’s just the Mail trying to wind up their readers with nonsense , and trying to get their readers to be angry at Starmer and Labour.
@LostEst1981@Otto_English I’ve just looked online and several UK newspapers have reported the gold wallpaper was £840 a roll. I don’t know where you got the £225 per roll figure.
@LFCTJG @AnfieldSector Assuming no more 1st team squad players leave, then we urgently need a 1st choice DMF, a 2nd LCB to rotate with VVD. I still hope we’ll buy a CB this window. As for the DMF, LFC have been looking for the right player for a few years now, & we really should have bought 1 by now
@GhostOfOrwell84 My post and the screenshots I supplied seem very clear. He posted at least 2 “incitement to violence “ posts and I believe that’s why he pleaded guilty.
The second part of your comment is irrelevant to this case as he broke the law.
@GhostOfOrwell84 In the UK we have laws against “incitement to violence”. It appears that at least 2 of his posts broke the law (specifically the “get on the streets” and probably the burning car one).
@auditingmps @WayneGb88 This isn’t a “free speech” issue, he broke the law when he posted inciting violence (specifically the “take to the streets” and possibly the burning car posts).
