You know the whole #Coxon #Anthropic "We're all gonna die" thing?

@MissConstrue I've taken to calling AI the "math furnace" because it puts out a lot of waste heat and needs to be fed electricity, water, and rare ancient books.
The heat can seem like it's the most productive output.
Virtual golems that manifest in the real world as heater warehouses that eat water, electricity, and old books... What a weird place the future turned out to be.

You know the whole #Coxon #Anthropic "We're all gonna die" thing? It's kinda looking like paid astroturfing. Marketing psyop to coincide with #Nvidia declaring that microchips are "long term investible assets". We are being played, y'all.
Jacob had almost zero footprint, wiped his X before the post, and had only been at Anthropic for a few months. Within a few minutes of the WSJ dropping the story, he does his announcement post on the twitters, and is instantly boosted by some of the biggest names in the AI field, which is not how organic engagement works for an account with no followers. His follower count goes up by hundreds of thousands, he gets media attention everywhere, and suddenly everyone is talking about LLM like it's a mind, and not a computer with an OFF switch.
At the same time, Nvidia hard launches the term "AI Factory" to rebrand datacenters and try and raise 500 billion dollars from your retirement fund.
I dunno gang, I think I'm calling shenanigans on this.
@MissConstrue a large parts of our societies are secured through obscurity, there's hundreds of neoclouds coming online trying to tap the GPU rental market, transferring terabytes over the internet is relatively fast these days. The "off" switch is security theatre, the threat is real, and so is the pre-IPO scaremongering.

My mom called me freaking out yesterday. This is basically the gist of what I told her. It's all part of the hype machine. AI has raised about as much as they can from the US now and they are now trying to court European investors and this shit just happens to coincide with that and what you mentioned about Nvidia. They need the money spigot open and every tine somebody tries to shut it, they pull some shit like this. To VC investors it says...

..."We have something super powerful invest while you still can." It's very different than what the public hears. That's by design. They don't wan't insignificant investors muddying up their rich people shit. They need trilions in investments. Part of these ETF's are to mine that money from retirement accounts that invest in hedge funds (see the spacex fiasco). They are also trying to raise money with really risky bonds that should have much higher yields for the amount of risk.

We are officially at the age of don’t believe anything they say.
Their power was their credibility that they never deserved.
Without credibility only stupid people will invest and lose their investments.
Maybe this is good

@budududuroiu I get that there isn't a big red button to power down a single box. But, for example, were an agent swarm detected, it is absolutely possible to shut down the origination. the phone-home locus, any number of other locations...etc. Would it be inconvenient? Certainly. It is possible? absolutely. In most places in the US, the grid can be shut off by street/block/address.
And if what you're saying is that they can somehow stay active state without power, then we have something we need to take outside and kill with fire.
(Full disclosure: Big fan of fire.)

@collapse Someone just told me that Altman said OpenAI decided *not* to ipo this year. I haven't verified yet. If so...then this begins to look even more engineered...they are bleeding money, and the circular funding is about to dry up.

I’m so fed up and tired of the bullshit.
Tech isn’t cool anymore. They can take their smart watches, TV and other appliance personalized flock devices and shove them up their asses.
AI is genocide and the people who run the big tech need to have their companies dismantled underneath them and they need to be run out of town after they’ve been tarred and feathered

Woah. As a rule, when playing Cassandra, there exists a period of time between prophecy and happenstance. Almost always you have enough time to climb up a hill so you can be silhouetted against a thunderstorm saying "Why didn't you believe me? Too late now!"
Y'all I had time to make some rice. Like, seriously. I posted this, I went off and made dinner, and while helping Daughter pack got a ping about this article.
#Altman says #OpenAi Will Not #IPO this year, but it's not, really really not, because they're afraid to let their books be audited. Instead, it's totally because AI is so scawwwy! So scary, you guys! Did you see that guy who said Anthropic's #AI was going to kill us all, so...you should give us your money so our AI can save you from their AI.
Sure, Jan.

@MissConstrue Bender's doomer / booster being opposite sides of the same coin sounds more & more accurate, and it started off sounded pretty smart.

@GhostOnTheHalfShell I tried to convince some friends to help me carry a whole tarred and feathered and rode out on a rail themed protest prop for the GOP Grindr Fest in Dallas.
I failed to take into account how heavy a railroad tie is. Subsequently how heavy a 6' 4x4 is...and we came to the conclusion that it was more than our contingent of Antifa Grannies could manage, but now we know, and we're building it from cardboard for the next time Ken Paxton shows his face.

A half scale nonfunctional model of a guillotine where the blade is made out of duct tape and foil of some kind works really well. It worked in Salem Oregon.

@MissConstrue I was wondering how Scam Altman was going to avoid the IPO given how badly Felon Musk's IPO went.

@MissConstrue yeah, I think I'm not as optimistic (anecdotally) about our collective capacity to do enough secops and monitoring on the open internet. We probably can kill it with fire, not so sure we're prepared to do it in time
