Hell they could've just roko basilisked Yahweh into existence

[–] EmmaGoldman@hexbear.net 29 points 4 weeks ago

I mean, I don't see any other god lying or jerking me off.

We've been feeding rainforests to Supply-Side Jesus for no reason at all!

Site tagline material right there.

To a good home: there's a wife joke in there for someone else to make

And God spoke unto Noah and said, "You're right. I really shouldn't have flooded the Earth. I will try and not do that again in the future"

and so the rainbow emoji was born

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 66 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

It's the same predictive text bullshit that all the other frontier models do but it's a bit different since it talks like a redditor and it doubles down about being wrong. If this is what a god is, boy, these yahoos should meet me, I'd blow their socks off.

Judge me all you want for joining the weird cult at work that is trying to summon a dark god - I will sleep easy knowing that I won't be tortured by it until the end of the universe.

Roko's basilisk's basilisk and it's about a group of humans that create an eternal hell to torture people who believe Roko's basilisk is real

[–] fox@hexbear.net 43 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

I draw triple basilisk and place it in attack mode

i draw a swamp, i play a swamp, i end my turn

how about of instead of eternal hell we just give them wedgies

[–] Johnny_Arson@hexbear.net 10 points 4 weeks ago

I swear it's like they read that essay on Capital as a Real God and thought "Ya know what? Fuck it let's make it even more literal".

what no humanities education does to a techbro aristocracy

[–] enmanue1250@lemmygrad.ml 55 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (2 children)

wtf, welp, that settles it, china has won the AI wars, both of the american top labs are terminally huffing their own supply, like compare this with the statements made by Deepseek engineers, for example https://lemmygrad.ml/post/12798820

[–] Rojo27@hexbear.net 37 points 4 weeks ago

It really is a stark difference when someone looks at their work from a material lens rather than some fantastical ideal.

For many employed by a frontier AI lab, it could be a form of survival instinct. As the BBC reported last month, some employees as working up to 90 hours a week, a “grueling work culture” marked by “cut-throat” performance reviews and frequent layoffs.

Yeah, this totally wouldn't be conducive to erratic behavior. Its no wonder some of these people really believe they're creating a god that is going to kill us all.

[–] LaBellaLotta@hexbear.net 42 points 4 weeks ago

The most annoying thing about constantly losing to this class of freaks and cretins is how painfully stupid and deluded they always reveal themselves to be.

The specter of

sicko-yes

an omnipotent large language model

According to a rumor that is apparently running rampant in Silicon Valley

I'm holding off on taking techbro gossip at face value

[–] Wheaties@hexbear.net 16 points 4 weeks ago

Are they actually worshiping it as a god? No probably not.

But is it easier, more expedient, and - ultimately - an accurate enough description that it saves us time and energy while at least pointing us in the right direction? Yeah, I think so.

[–] CyborgMarx@hexbear.net 35 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

They're trying to make the Egregore of Capitalism conscious by hooking it up to computers

These dipshits are literally trying to create an SCP, but since the real world is lame af, they're still delusional larpers, since they'd need actual AGI with some kind of hardware equivalent of neurophysiology to accomplish that goal

The machine god will remain the equivalent of an unconscious slime mold for the foreseeable future, techlords can cope

I was going to make a 40k Mechanicus joke but even they know the dangers of Abominable Intelligences

[–] alexei_1917@hexbear.net 6 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

I used to think the AdMech were very silly about "thinking computers". I now realise they were completely right and AI is a plague on the earth.

The what now?

Where is that meme with kojima about the AI names?

Amodei is creating a "god"

[–] 9to5@hexbear.net 27 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Abominable Intelligence (A.I. for short)

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 10 points 4 weeks ago

Abdominal Intelligence but it's doing Russian twists until muscle failure

[–] groKKK@hexbear.net 27 points 4 weeks ago

Does Claude denounce white genocide in South Africa?

I blame Ray Kurzweil for all of this btw

Tech bros treat this guy and his damn The Singularity is Near like a prophet

is-this Is this the Dawn Machine?

  • supporters hoped it will solve all their problems

  • they siphoned all available resources to build it

  • they started worshipping it

  • it is mostly useless in the end

Guy who Easter-and-Christmas believes in the AI God but still plagurizes by hand sometimes despite being a believer by title.

Dear Laird, what concoction shall I drink in thy name to be one with the vibes?

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 14 points 4 weeks ago

Ask not what ye should drink, but ask what ye can get dario amodei to drink.

And then make that drink a large hydrofluoric acid.

RIP Terry Davis you would have loved llms

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 4 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Youtube for a bit was trying to get me to watch his stuff. Dunno why but nah no thanks.

[–] KnilAdlez@hexbear.net 6 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

Yeah, he showed up in my recs too for a moment. If I had to guess it's fascists who were trying to co-opt him. But he had a terrible mental illness and said many things that are unpalatable to everybody.

[–] ClathrateG@hexbear.net 13 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

He's still ~~not going to fuck you~~ going to torture you Basilisk style

[–] Monk3brain3@hexbear.net 11 points 4 weeks ago

So basically we're back to religion or something i-cant

[–] FourteenEyes@hexbear.net 6 points 4 weeks ago

This is just Rosicrucianism for liberals
