COPE: If a massive AI disaster occurs, it won't kill *everyone.* STRAIGHT DOPE: Nate Soares: "It's actually pretty hard to get an AI disaster scenario where it kills only half the people." Hoog: So you think it will be 100%? @so8res: Probably yeah, that's sort of the default.

Mark Cuban says AI isn't smart, and he'd trust a seeing-eye dog over it to get across the street "AI is not smart. It just knows how to use statistics basically to predict the next word. It’s predictive. It’s not deterministic. If you asked 4 different AIs the same question, you’re going to get 4 different answers" "AI doesn’t know the consequences of its actions. AI doesn’t have inherent ethics" "If I’m standing at a 4-way intersection and there’s cars going back and forth, and I have video in my phone and the best models ever, and I have a seeing-eye dog right here, I’m letting the seeing-eye dog take me across the street before I let the AI take me across the street. It’s always going to be behind" "A 2-year-old sitting on a high chair with a sippy cup knows that if it pushes the sippy cup off the high chair, Mom’s going to come running, and it knows it’s going to crack up. AI is not going to figure that out ever"

Hope all you psycho whack jobs are happy about this. Enjoy midnight at 6 PM. 🫠
