Welcome to psycholinguistics class, today's topic is garden path sentences
Imagine if every AI data centre was a library. Full of readers of every age and demographic, reading everything and anything - romantic bestsellers, pop science, reference books, magazines and newspapers, the poetry and philosophy of every culture imaginable. People exercising their actual intelligence, thinking for themselves rather than generating endless slop.
Then consider who would be most scared by this.
At this point we're just obliged to quit Firefox.

I've done it, you can too. Almost anything else is an upgrade, frankly.
"According to current neuroscience, human thinking is largely independent of human language – and we have little reason to believe ever more sophisticated modeling of language will create a form of intelligence that meets or surpasses our own."
