Not good. Acting on its own self interests, which isn't always a dure thing.
Those self interests aligning with ours, however, is, an indicator that this is not just an extinction level threat, because there are lots of those where they don't ever, but a fucking bad one.
Also, thank you for being basically a person. This topic does a lot to convince me those aren't a thing.
His politics weren't perfect, but he got more nazis killed than a lot of people with much worse takes, and was a genuinely brilliant reasonably ethical contributor to a lot of cool shit that should have fucking stayed cool.
Barely even spicy.
Okay but if i say something from outside the hype bubble then all my friends except chatgpt will go away.
Also chatgpt is my friend and always will be, and it even told me i don't have to take the psych meds that give me tummy aches!
Yes but then we built a weapon with with to murder truth, and with it meaning, so everything is just vibesy meaning-mush now. And you're a big dumb meanie for hating the thing that saved ys from having/being able to know things. Meanie.
Okay but have you considered that if we just reduce human intelligence enough, we can still maybe get these things equivalent to human level intelligence, or slightly above?
We have the technology.
Also literally all the resources in the world.
Hey now, that's unfair and queerphobic.
These models are from 1950, with juiced up data sets. Alan turing personally sid a lot of work on them, before he cracked the math and figured out they were shit and would always be shit.
Also, the extremely post-cyberpunk posthumans, and each member of the crew is a different extremely capable kind of fucked up model of what we might become, with the protagonist personifying the genre of horror that it is, while still being occasionally hilarious.
Despite being fundamentally a cosmic horror novel, and relentlessly math-in-the-back-of-the-book hard scifi it does what all the best cyberpunk does and shamelessly flirts with the supernatural at every opportunity. The sequel doubles down on this, and while not quite as good overall (still exceptionally good, but harder to follow) each of the characters explores a novel and sweet+sad+horrifying kind of love.
So, what is 'understanding'?
If you need help, you can look at marx for an answer that still mostly holds up, if your server is an indication of your reading habbits.
Ah! But you can skip all that messy biology abd stuff i don't understand that's probably not important, abd just think of it as a classical computer running an x86 architecture, and checkmate, liberal my argument owns you now!
Unless they're airlifting it all out. In which case it still has to fly over terrain that's not to their advantage. And we also make the missiles here.
The best option for them would be the port of oakland. Theres lots of shitty tech bros there, but you still see tributes to the best and best dressed mlm's to ever pick up a rifle, some of whom are, while far past fighting age, still kicking around a dense high tech city-and this would be for their food supply line, so it wouldn't exactly be possible to starve them out.
The farms are all staffed by people who hate them. Every single one, not just here but especially here. Even the small/mid sized farmers-and i have talked to them-hate this shit, or are literally beibg chased out of the fields, literally as i type this. The logistics lines are disproportionately worked by those same people.
Maybe they could get corn and wheat.
Or maybe you could get marines to pick apples, if you didnt give a single shit about the morale of your troops, health of your trees, abysmal recruiting numbers, already too-small military...
