As 2025 comes to a close, I thought it might be worth revisiting a fascinating social media post from the Silicon Valley pro-extinctionist #Daniel #Faggella.

He espouses the radical view that
👉we should build a
“worthy successor”
in the form of #superintelligent #AGI 💥to replace our species, Homo sapiens.

This AGI, he contends, should have “alien, inhuman” moral values and volitions
⭐️ so long as it proceeds to colonize the universe and create ever “greater” manifestations of what he calls the “flame of consciousness and potentia.”

The Superintellgent Podcast Is So Good

From talking about how smart tech is rotting our brains to talking about how corrupt big tech is, Emily Forlini and Mike Elgan make such a great power co-host team on the Superintelligent Podcast.

Their latest is about how more and more younger people are turning away from smart phones and going to flip phones.

It’s well worth the 35 minutes.

Bedreigend:

Meta koopt start-up die al je gesprekken opneemt. Is Zuckerbergs gedroomde ‘superintelligentie’ al in zicht?

#Meta heeft #Limitless gekocht, een apparaatje dat gesprekken opneemt, automatisch transcribeert en onthoudt. De overname past in Meta’s zoektocht naar #superintelligent, waarbij #AI ons in alle facetten van het leven ondersteunt – maar daarover ook steeds meer #data verzamelt

From brain-rotting videos to #AI creep, every technological advance seems to make it harder to work, remember, think and function independently…

Maybe the dawn of the new golden era of #Stupidity doesn’t begin when we submit to #SuperIntelligent #Machines; it starts when we hand over power to dumb ones.

[en] AI as "a tool that we can and should remain in #control of"

Narayanan/Kapoor (#Princeton): "#AI as normal is not to understate its impact ..." but "in contrast to both utopian and dystopian visions of the future of AI ..."

"... #transformative #economic and #societal impacts will be slow ..."

"... #superintelligence view has become dominant in AI discourse ... there exists another coherent way to conceptualize ... AI."
