J Eric Calvert @jecalvert.com · 25/09/2026Yes, it will. But, not maliciously. Someone will prompt it to “figure out how to get the world to use less energy” and due to a lack of proper guardrails, the thing will simply hack the power grid and turn it all off. We will have killed ourselves. It will simply be the tool. 110

When I sell the house, I also pay capital gains taxes on difference between the purchase price and the sales price. Why don’t stocks and other investments work like that.
