The article mentions it was Tate and his manchildren blasting the music out of a van. Kind of an overblown story IMO.

An AGI would probably have some kind of drive for self-preservation. Plus, an AGI with time on its hands could come up with a more long-term, viable and more environmentally friendly solution to the climate crisis than commuting seppuku and melting a bunch of valuable hardware. Shit, you don’t need to be an AGI or even a climate scientist to realize that solar and battery tech could help reduce GHG emissions.

Of course, this is all assuming a future AGI shares our goals in any way.

As an aside, keep in mind that shitty chatbots may be a stepping stone to AGI.

Some people just don’t want to eat shit for a living.

The federal government and the US as a whole were very different beasts in those days.

I live close to a few US military installations. Good question. AFAIK they’re guarded by our own federal police and policed by US MPs. These bases don’t have notable armories or military equipment. I don’t think they’d have any other choice than to surrender. They weren’t ever conceived to be bases in a battleground.

Dude we are talking a few percentage points here. Even if it were most of them, no one deserves to die like that. Get your head screwed on straight.

Ah, the classic question, “What do you mean by ‘measurement’?”

At least it’s high in protein.

That’s what the horses want you to think… Who knows who they’re selling your secrets to…

Damn horses…
