What happens when the machines succeed & can deliver our wildest dreams? The cautionary tale of Forbidden Planet. Worth a rewatch. #SciFi #AI #theTempest #id #PopCulture #hubris Forbidden Planet hit cinemas in 1956. Its warnings about AI should terrify us

Y’all, we need to talk about the #AI-bros and the fact that they don’t think other people are humans that have value as ya know, people. “We hosted a YC Startup School afterparty at the #LemonLime office to meet exceptional people, and find out which of them are just as crazy as we are,” wrote Zietz in a now-deleted #LinkedIn post. “That’s why we brought an actual tattoo artist to our party and offered an instant interview to anyone who got a LemonLime tattoo.” Yep, an AI company said it would interview real humans only if they got branded with the company logo. They’ve subsequently removed their posts…but the internet is forever. #yCombinator #startups #hubris #TheBallsOnThisFuckingDude

I mean that verse from the song "Handlebars" comes to mind.... 😅 "I can make computers survive aquatic conditions I know how to run the business And I can make YOU wanna buy a product Movers, shakers, and producers Me and my friends understand the future I see the strings that control the systems I can do anything with no assistance...." So does the word #hubris, come to think of it.... 🤔

@knowprose@mastodon.social I am particularly struck by the line "The reason credit risk has become more of an issue is that it can no longer be assumed that large language models will ever be profitable given the related ongoing collapse in token pricing,"... I can hear the #hubris gong ringing.

@jdmcg@mastodon.nz no one wants escape slop getting all up their business. The potential for #hubris makes my head spin.

This image from the Guardian... 🤣🤣🤣 for those not following UK politics, Nigel Farage has resigned his parliamentary seat - a stunt designed to frustrate corruption investigations. Farage is hoping to be reelected again, but no parties are standing against him. This leave's Count Binface as the leading candidate against him. #hubris #ukpolitics #lockfarageup
