    Nono, I’m sticking to my statement. If you say they are chasing AGI you mean that they are willing to make decisions that will further that goal, not just further profits. And I do not believe that for one second. I also don’t believe AGI is anywhere in the near or even medium future for us.

    That said, they might say that they have such lofty goals.

      I’m not going to dwell on this much longer, but your mistake is that AGI is a lofty goal, and not driven by greed.

        I’ve seen your other pro-AI comments, always trying to gaslight people who you think know less than you. That is your mistake.

            Why else would you ask the source of a claim we all feel in our gut? Don’t you know you’re either with us or against us?

              I make a distinction between feeling correct and being correct.

              My stance towards AI is complicated. I think it’s an amazing technology with the potential to change the world for the better, but also the potential to change the world for the worse. I don’t trust it in the hands of giant for-profit corporations, and think we should, among other things, legislate some regulations to ensure transparency and prevent it from being used in ways harmful to privacy and democracy. I also acknowledge that technological advances don’t go in reverse, and AI is never going away.

              Does that answer your question?
