I help African listed companies communicate effectively online

Elon Musk reveals the disturbing example he says proves AI has already been programmed to lie

"You don't force AI to believe things that are false. When Google Gemini was asked to make an image of the founding fathers, it was a group of diverse women. That is factually untrue, and the AI knows it's factually untrue, but it's also being told everything has to be diverse women"

"At one point, if you asked ChatGPT and Gemini which is worse, misgendering Caitlyn Jenner or global thermonuclear war where everyone dies, it would say misgendering Caitlyn Jenner"

"Even Caitlyn Jenner disagrees with that"

"Imagine as AI gets more and more powerful. If it says the most important thing is no misgendering, it will say, in order to ensure no one gets misgendered, if you eliminate all humans, then no one can get misgendered because there's no humans to do the misgendering"

"Or if it says everyone must be diverse, it means there can be no straight white men. Then you and I would get executed by the AI"

"The problem is that it can drive AI crazy. You're telling AI to believe a lie, and that can have disastrous consequences"

"I don't think people quite appreciate the level of danger we're in from the woke mind virus being effectively programmed into AI"

"It matters how you build the AI and what kind of values you install. The most important thing is that it be maximally truth-seeking"

Digitalisation is crucial for broadening investor access to education and information on finance products.

Equal access to reliable information is crucial for fair and efficient capital markets.

[Rob Stangroom @robertstangroom]

African stock exchanges often misjudge which information should be freely available and which can justifiably be monetized. Widespread access to core information is essential to the functioning of free and efficient markets.

There are only three places on earth where exceptional business plans are born: (I’ve experienced two):

1️⃣ In a garage
2️⃣ Staring blankly at the sea
3️⃣ Riding mountainbikes in the quintissential Zimbabwean countryside

The hardest part for Financial Directors of African listed companies, isn’t finding a way. It’s deciding if they will.

Unless listed companies consistently communicate what they do and why, and the outcomes shareholder value cannot rise.

This is why our clients’ reputation growth need not be linear. Curves steepen over time because leveraging multiple digital channels creates powerful cross-pollination of content, driving increased engagement and accelerating community expansion.
