So you managed to rationalize not building a nuke through your superior morals. Now inevitably there will be a different group that operate on different moral principles that will eventually develop a nuke. (Unless you somehow think they are too stupid and not capable)
I guess have fun being right and on the side with no nukes?
- more_corn 3y agoI suspect that when German scientists reported that it was infeasible to create a fission chain reaction they knew. Knew that there were ways and knew not to turn their brilliance towards the creation of terrible weapons. The last step in creation is relinquishing control. And while it is possible to use weapons wisely, an inventor must realize that once a thing is created he has no say in whether it’s used wisely. For this reason I caution you all against the creation of any weapon you wouldn’t wish to face in the darkness of night, be it in the receiving end or as the responsible party. Don’t create superhuman targeting devices. Don’t create targeted germ warfare. Don’t create antimatter devices. Don’t use AI to kill. You are responsible for your own actions and your actions matter. Let us begin there.
