I know it’s marketing. Which is why I think they should kill themselves. Perpetuating the “AI will ruin humanity” narrative - not because of violating labor laws and committing war crimes, but because le terminator - deserves nothing but scorn and death. I WISH the evil AI was real so these people would be tormented for eternity.

    could threaten humanity

    This shit's marketing hype, isn't it? It's like saying "this bazingamobile is so epic that it could be a threat to the police because it's bulletproof and can briefly float like a boat during getaway chases!" so-true

      Strong ”Saddam is trying to build a supercomputer out of PS2s” energy.

      Also, it encourages over regulation to make it harder for small companies to enter the market. Facebook does the same thing

        over regulation

        Regulatory capture is a cynical corporate tactic, but going full unregulated bazinga for the sake of innovation is just another drive and pull from other techbros too.

          yes but crucially they are avoiding regulation where it would actually be good, like about misrepresenting what the AI is, preventing it being used to create porn of unwilling people, protection of people's data, assurance to artists etc

          they want regulation for problems that don't exist

            preventing it being used to create porn of unwilling people,

            Cat's out of the bag on that one. It's illegal to share in a lot of places, but the models to do it are free, small and can be run on a personal computer.

      I don’t know, their death cult leader might actually believe it. My personal guess is that they tied ChatGPT and TTS to a digital head and they think it’s conscious because it said “yes” when asked
