Remember the 22 word statement about #AI and human extinction & such? Its originator, the founder of, wait for it, the center for AI "Safety" says

"Natural selection disfavors individuals who stop caring about acquiring more resources and expanding their influence. The individuals who always want more are selected for."

Yea what we need to do is "build bridges" and "talk it out" with these people 🙄 next day after the "statements" he joins Elmo's grift, XAI or whatever bullshit its called.

I've been watching a friend's baby quail. When I feed them, certain quail push all the rest of the birds out of the way, to gorge on the food and get HUGE, blocking the smaller and less aggressive quail who continually fight for what little they can get. Reminds me of every day in the US, as those who feel the need to take far more than their share, consider it a positive trait to let others suffer without (but go on and on about bootstraps, blaming others for being stepped on).
