sometimes when i talk about AI it feels like this is what the conversation is like:
person A: hey. did you hear theres a mythical giant drinking the ocean through a straw? look, it’s crazy.
person B: well, i dunno. the giants already there, so we may as well just learn how to cope with it.
person C: i disagree, actually. the giant is good for humanity and will solve cancer!
person D: well i think all of you are extreme. what we do is divide the ocean in half. that way the giant can continue stealing our water and we might be able to survive for a few more decades.
person A: why don’t we just stop the giant from drinking our water?
person B: well then what would happen to the giant? how are you personally gonna stop the giant?
person C: well i don’t think thats fair. the giant has a lot of good qualities that people tend to overlook just because he’s drinking the ocean.
person A: holy fuck guys there’s a second giant and they’re implementing laws so we can’t take their straws away
person D: this is so amazing for the giants! (:
