@simon thanks!
@simon just as the center of my assertion "I hope you misunderstand what I do", I would use the "AI Safety" letter as the prime example, of billionaires and billionaire-adjacent types declaring that this "AI" is so, so close to total sentience that governments *must* stop everyone (except us! who should be gatekeepers) from developing this *so very dangerous and powerful!* technology any further
lots of non-tech ppl signed onto that thing and it was quite alarming
@zzzeek urgh, yeah the thing where people are leaning into the science fiction definition to help promote the technology is really upsetting
