    Loving the asymptotic approach to weapons-grade nonsense as these warnings get more and more dire.

    By November 1st Anthropic will warn that AI is hours away from turning every beetle on the earth into a self-replicating LLM.

    By November 30th, OpenAI warns that we are only days way from every digital watch being self aware.

    On December 15th, Amodei warns that Anthropic's models are seconds away from converting every electron in the solar system into a data center.

    "We can't do anything without an ocean of water and billions of dollars worth of GPUs. We put a strain on the network and the electrical grid just by existing. And soon, that might happen in.... your refrigerator! Your microwave! Your smart appliances!"

    Man, if your shit can self-host itself on something smaller than a raspi wtf are you even doing and why does anyone need it.

    @mhoye "we used to call new product warnings 'announcements', son. people still wanted new products in those days. i know that doesn't make any sense now, but that's how it was..."

    @mhoye What I have been thinking for a while. Is that they wanted to make their chatbot sound impressive, so they called it "AI". But once they'd done that they still needed something to reach for, so they coined "AGI" as the next thing. But then they realized they had to appear to be making progress, so they're starting to claim that their chatbot is now "AGI". What I figure is they're going to need some step after "AGI" to continue the loop and I wonder when they'll land on "weakly godlike"

    @mhoye If we're lucky, nobody who works there will manage to find a copy of "The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect"

    @mhoye At some point the commentariat is going to have to accept that even without AI, IoTs are a massive threat and that perhaps they are more drunk on tech novelty than they'd like to admit.
