I'm currently reading that book as well. I can't see any of those guys wanting to build their own infrastructure from scratch, and I would laugh my ass off watching them only realise too late why healthcare and clean water provision is actually really important.

Question: is new car likely to be more reliable and cost less in maintenance, surprise repair ills, etc? I realise I'm probably not helping here but you never know.

This interview with @timnitgebru.blacksky.app about all the recent doomer announcements from the AI companies is excellent. Two huge points: They do this to distract from the real harms. These safety researchers aren’t talking about people committing suicides or targeting Palestinian with bombs.

We're in the era of incompetence & cybercrimes headlined as "unprecedented model capabilities gone rogue." So OpenAI & Anthropic are trying to one up each other with such incompetence because the "press release as a service" performing media & clueless politicians parrot pre IPO CEO talking points.
