im very skeptical of this channel just because of how much it anthropomorphizes AI, it feels propagandistic.

Instead of taking the statistical analysis approach, its easy to rely on the marketing of “AI scary and will kill us and we’re not ready” or whatever, like, scifi is cool, but this is not that.

I like this especific explanation on an AI responce to a PR (the whole thread is good in that sense), as to why it says what it says, its a boring and statistical framework, shaped by rules that turn it into a complex machinne.

We as people like to anthropomorphize other things, read into them and see our own reflections, and altho its not bad to have empathy, but thats not always reality, and we need to be weary of how this behaviour can be exploited.

This whole youtube channel is personally off to me, mostly because of the super professional look, how out of the blue it appeared, not knowing anyone from the team that researches any of these topics (maybe i just havent looked into the credits) and how their weariness of AI is the same as the weariness of the companies, which have the interest of selling it (see claudes secret model thats a danger to the world and must not be published).

With the amout of money in AI, i worry its a psyop from some company that want to promote the idea of AGI, so that AI business stays viable for that little bit longer.

End of rant, i hope it made some sense lmao. Fuck IA

I think having a clear understanding of what is and isnt allowed is a good thing in any scenario. I dont think making everyone afraid to post is a good solution to trolls pushing the boundaries (that they would be pushing anyways). And in any case, the mods have a final say in such matters, thats why they are there, hopefully it doesnt come to that tho.
