I am writing on a longer piece on the current state of AI. But I want to discuss one thought of mine already.

It was triggered by news like this one:

https://www.the-independent.com/tech/mark-zuckerberg-ai-ceo-bot-b2943792.html

My personal theory is that AI is an attempt of the big tech CEOs to achieve some kind of immortality.

They know their bodies will eventually die. But they believe they are so brilliant, that humanity deserves them to persist in the form of a specifically trained AI that implements a bot persona of them.

They will attempt to pass their fortune to this bot identity. This will take shape in the form of a foundation (which also saves tax).

P.S. The longer piece is here: https://infosec.exchange/@masek/116295320755996705

If this is true, they are infinitely more stupid than I already assumed. I must admit, I cannot imagine a person to be this stupid, it is beyond my stupidity scale.

@HaraldKi See https://infosec.exchange/@masek/116295320755996705 for a more detailed analysis.

I have pulled that thought from my more in depth analysis it felt like a loose end there. But AI is like a literal siren song for managers.
