This is completely outrageous and disgusting. This must immediately be blocked by Congress and Trump should be impeached for this. The US is now funding Putin’s war machine as he murders civilians including children. We are lost as a country.

So the AI titans worry about bad PR the “day after” and are gaming out scenarios? They should hire criminal defense attorneys too. Revisit my @theatlantic.com and Early Warning on culpability after a “rogue” AI event. earlywarningwithjuliette.substack.com/p/they-are-t...

They are titans. They may also be criminals.
There is nothing “rogue” about what the AI titans have built. It is all by design.
