Recently, I’ve been thinking that this is more than just about the stock price. I think they’re playing this game of painting the AIs as super weapons as a justification to start regulating personal computing. If they maintain that these rouge AIs are as dangerous as Skynet, They’ll have the justification to outlaw local models, and to insure that people aren’t using local agents, they’ll further push cloud computing and saas.

Copying and pasting another comment I made recently about this. The AI CEOs say shit like this as marketing. They want people to believe that Their product is very capable, so people are more likely to use it Their product is dangerous and “only they” know how to control it. They want to create regulations so that nobody else is allowed to make something “so dangerous” again.

And by “rogue AI,” do they mean the open market alternatives?

This “self-replicating” scare is so stupid on its face. How does a 300 GB+ model replicate into a thermostat that doesn’t have a graphics processor at all? It can’t. This BS is investor-bait hype and straight up lies

Part of the problem is the use case. A lot of AI companies want users to use AI to interface with society and it turns out that it is a bad idea to give an intelligent toddler that much unconstrained access.

Hardware Anthropic doesn’t own is simply too dangerous for the public, we need to place all of our private computing power under the guardianship of our new benevolent overlords

So finally an open weight model from Anthropic?

The practice of fear mongering to create public pressure for increased legislation, as a mechanism to suppress competition, is a well know mechanism called “regulatory capture”. If you oppose monopolies then you oppose this practice and should view posts like this as morally wrong.

And you might be thinking know it won’t because my thermostat is a whole megabyte of RAM. What you don’t know is that AI code is special magic code it doesn’t need any process capacity or storage space. You don’t it’s all special wooo magic AI code. Reality is optional.

Lmao legalized gambling and the AI super intelligence emerging at the same time is the worst timeline possible. I predicted the government would do this shit a decade ago, but I didn’t predict full on gambling be 100% legal at the same time. The worst human traits imaginable is fueling the biggest leap in technology we’ve ever seen. Hundreds, possibly, billions will die before it’s corrected.

It can’t spread across networks because it doesn’t run locally. The “agent” is running in their data centre the entire time. It should be very easy to stop it

Stop quoting a gambling site for news. Regarding Claude, the tech oligarchs would have to be held responsible for the crimes they are committing with their software (yes, that is exactly what that scenario is about), if laws still meant anything.
