Important reminder: atop a long list of reasons why one shld not meet w/ Yudkowski for his advice on AI/AGI, or anything else, is: HE ISN’T A CODER! HE IS’NT A DEV! He literally just dropped out of 8th grade & later posted his Harry Potter fan fic & nonsense mental masturbation online. That’s it!

In one instance, a Claude bot apparently tried to abort its mission numerous times when the bot "realized" it met an unstable condition. But it didn't have a fail safe built in, so it proceeded by taking advantage of unsecured access credentials. Again, this is bush league.

The 1912 Titanic disaster was precipitated by technology outpacing regulation. "The standard was the thing that had failed, and it had failed silently, years before anyone hit the ice, in the gap between how fast ships were being built and how slowly the rules governing them were rewritten."

spacedaily.com

In 1912, the Titanic sailed legally with 20 lifeboats and places for 1,178 people, because Britain's rules put every ship of 10,000 gross tons and above in the same top category, while Titanic measure...

A ship that exceeded every safety rule of its time still couldn't save everyone—a gap that would reshape maritime law forever.

So, it’s not a conspiracy, and you are not imagining it. The biggest and wealthiest tech leaders are genuine fascists. They are leading an active and intentional systematic attack on labor. And they have radicalized each other while sidelining or removing the remaining decent execs in the industry.

It’s worse than this. Having been in the room with many of them (long ago, before I knew they were psychopaths), the tycoons who are left running the industry have an active contempt for ordinary people, including their own workers. They actively want to oppress, control and punish them.
