We're going to build a recursively self-improving god-like machine intelligence that wants to destroy humanity, but it's OK because I have a hole. COMIC ◆ www.smbc-comics.com/comic/bunker PATREON ◆ www.patreon.com/ZachWeinersm... STORE ◆ smbc-store.myshopify.com
4-panel SMBC comic update. A man watches in horror at his phone where an image of a burning city is titled "woops." He declares "oh my God, we created superintelligence and it turned on us! Good thing I spent 100 million dollars on this secure underground bunker." Shortly later, we see the same man being found by a red robot looking down from the ceiling of the bunker. When the man asks how the robot got in, the robot answers that there was a hatch, and that they can open hatches. The man replies, annoyed "not cool."

I drew that sign as temp art, assuming a real artist would replace it. I think they left it in to punish me. Look, it’s not easy to draw a cursive F with a mouse in Enhanced Deluxe Paint II.

If you speak Finnish, I highly encourage you take a look at the Microsoft Translator website. They’ve proudly translated the entire site into Finnish to show it off. www.microsoft.com/fi-fi/transl... It’s so terrible it should be insulting, but actually ends up cathartic. The machines are clueless.

In the sake of transparency, here are the rough financial results from tiny ruby #​{conf} 2025 Amounts exclude VAT. Stripe & Tito fees have been deducted from ticket sales. Travel costs were lower than expected, which increased the total, but organising tiny conferences isn’t a path to riches. 😅
Venue: −€4000
Speaker travel subsidies: −€550
Merchandise: −€525
Marketing: −€300
Helsinki on Rails tour: −€325
Net ticket sales: +€3750
Sponsorships: +€3500

Total: +€1550
