Technically it's just lip service and nothing of the sort is ever going to happen any time soon, but it's still nice to see people speaking up

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Can you imagine if one day Google was researching SME nuclear reactors, and started using ad revenue to also build a nuclear weapon? Just like, on the side. And sold access to it.
And then two well-funded startups for SMEs also built their own nukes on the side?
Then Facebook built its own nuke, too?
And they were always in the news saying "y'all, these nukes keep us safe and are a natural byproduct of refining nuclear material for reactors. But holy shit, we also might start an accidental nuclear war. Crazy, huh?"
And the government was just like, "yoooo, save some nuke for me, bro!"
