“Be evil” - Google Man
Plus Elon and Sergey and Jeff said they’re totally leaving room for me in the domed city while the space ark is being built.
Another billionaire tech founder demonstrating that these are exactly the people who need to be kept as far away as possible from positions of influence in our society.
Did he also say “And do not quote me” the same way he did when he told people to just steal what they want and hire lawyers to clean up the mess if they were successful?
It’s easier to apologise than ask permission.
/s
“It’s easier to ask forgiveness than it is to ask permission” was coined by Admiral Grace Hopper for use in a very different context. It is intended to mean that, when dealing with a beaurocracy like the military, it is often easier to ask forgiveness than to ask permission.
She certainly wouldn’t have intended for it to be used in the context of theft.
Which was why I put the sarcasm “/s” at the end.
Even ignoring the selfish elitist tone, this is like saying “things won’t be perfect, so why even try?” I hate defeatism, especially when it harms all of us.
Its probably not defeatism, just a billionaire tech sociopath trying to pump his investments in data centers.
Take a long walk off a short pier, Eric.
“Because it’s a universal technology, and because it’s the arrival of an alien intelligence… we may make mistakes with respect to how it’s used, but I can assure you that we’re not going to get there through conservation.”
I can’t understand what he’s saying, even though it’s in english. Did AI mean Alien Intelligence all this time?
That part also confused me. Does he really think text prediction is intelligence?
By his logic—we may as well just bury this guy alive, he’s just going to die anyways.
I’m…like super good at digging…
Username checks out
I can mark the area
…w…w…with…paint?
<Padme and Anakin meme>
What shovel would you use to dig a 60 ft hole?
Hitachi 1200 with a long stick lol.
Why the fuck are we going so deep?
So he can’t crawl back up? It’s October.
ROFL… And also to assure he cannot be a zombie
Hopefully Google kills him off next.
Currently getting coffee, Viking Hippie says Eric Schmidt should go fuck himself with a rusty rail spike and keep his garbage opinions to himself.
“I can stab you for my amusement, you are going to die some day anyway.”
Let AI solve climate change, HOW? Current “AI” aren’t problem solvers. Or am I missing something?
Current “AI” isn’t really AI, more like autocorrect on steroids. “Real” AI will have the ability to program itself. Once we flip the switch on it’ll move so fast in complex, inhuman ways that we’ll never even be able to truly understand it.
no.
AI - Arsehole Intelligence
Be honest, Eric. “We should go all in on harmful bullshit because I make money from it.”
Not with you rich fuckers having that fucking attitude.
These Google guys are such a disappointment. They could’ve done something inspirational, but what have they done?
Been evil
So much for don’t be evil.
At least as the planet burns, it will be because we now have AI that tells us to superglue our pizza together or jump off the Golden Gate Bridge. Whatever would we do without it?
