Humans Over Robots | Raging Against the AI Machine

[TheLastLuddite @TheLastLuddite]

First, AI came for the programmers, but I did not speak out because I was not a programmer.

Then, AI came for the mathematicians, but I did not speak out because I was not a mathematician.

Then, AI came for the artists, but I did not speak out because I was not an artist...

[Lily Ray 😏 @lilyraynyc]

This was entirely predictable

[Leah McElrath @leahmcelrath]

We’ll be seeing more and more of these AI-enabled hacking operations in the near future, and, as dax notes, the AI offensive operations will need to be met with AI defensive operations. The swarm wars have begun.

[Ravid Shwartz Ziv @ziv_ravid]

Stop listening to AI researchers/engineers on economic-related issues. Please, I'm begging you

[Andrew Curran @AndrewCurran_]

OpenCode is currently under a sustained cyberattack, and mid-incident they ran into the same problem Hugging Face did: the frontier models they were using for defense began refusing to help fight attacking agents because analyzing the attacks started triggering safety guardrails.

[Neighbors First | Mike Brooks @DrMikeBrooks]

This is only the beginning, folks. Incidents like this will continue to happen – and grow in frequency and severity over time - as AI becomes more powerful and proliferates.

[Alastair Thomson @FinanceDirCFO]

From what I've seen, this is absolutely how AI is being used by most people most of the time.

It adds remarkably little value outside some niche areas like software development.

In 1986, Reagan and Gorbachev met in Reykjavik for a dialogue about the nuclear arms race. They left without a deal — but that single meeting made nuclear coordination imaginable and changed the game theory of the Cold War. A year later, they signed a treaty that eliminated an entire class of nuclear weapons.

Forty years to the day, @tristanharris and I were in the very same room in Iceland with 15 world leaders, discussing global coordination on AI. The 1986 Reykjavik meeting didn’t end the nuclear arms race, but it made that ending imaginable. That’s the moment we need today with AI.

In this week’s episode of Your Undivided Attention, we give you our dispatch from Iceland and talk to Icelandic President Halla Tómasdóttir about the kind of leadership this moment demands.

She endorses pausing AI

[Paul Graham @paulg]

This is how things will be for the foreseeable future.

[dax @thdxr]

they've been non stop trying to attack our systems for the past 48 hours

a side effect is everything is getting hardened but damn we basically need agents going 24/7

because that's what they have

[Wendy Patterson @wendyp4545]

AI is a program and all of the programmers should be reponsible for any harm tat AI causes humans in my opinion and they shouldn't get the first 50 deaths free.

[Luiza Jarovsky, PhD @LuizaJarovsky]

🚨 Unpopular opinion: other people (not those working for Anthropic) should be deciding on AI safety bills.

finding out there's literally 200 billion dollars worth of nvidia gpus sitting in warehouse storage (as there's no datacentres for them) bought by microsoft and other companies makes me fkn sick, it's literally just greed all the way down

[☆T⁷₿ @tumiszn_]

genuinely fuck whoever came up w the dumbass idea to replace THE DICTIONARY BUILT INTO GOOGLE with the ai overview's definitions i hope everything in their life fucking sucks

[☆T⁷₿ @tumiszn_]

no college kids are learning right now... we are simply just submitting assignments

[Invictus @InvictusTeaches]

I think the most depressing thing about AI progress is that neither the best case nor worst case scenario are appealing in the slightest to me for the future of humanity. This idea that humans will be happy when machines drive purpose, discovery, debate, etc from our lives is laughable.

[Jonas Persson @BishopBlougram]

@Bayesian0_0 Anthropic: We are bot religious cultists. We are rational, and even if our chiliasm notions of the impending rapture are exactly the same as those prophesied by religious fanatics since the Middle Ages, we are like different.

Anthropic's own slide:

[george elliot @GeorgeE33179]

@hecubian_devil @softminus Full automation + killer robots + mass surveillance = permanent prison OR global genocide

[Ashley Fitzgerald @RizomaSchool]

seems like "utopia ruled by god in a box" is pretty much universally condemned by basically all world religions??

[Megafaunadoodle @Jmvftp]

@ModeledBehavior This just happened and it didn't move the needle https://t.co/6ZAECCCiDI
