> believing computers will somehow come alive
Of course practically everytime the anti-doomer argument comes out, it fails to even understand the basic premise. Instead preferring to laugh at hyperbole, the core of a serious argument, everyone knows...
- jrflowers 3y agoCan you elaborate a bit more on the thing that everyone knows?
- reducesuffering 3y agoIt was /s . "Everyone knows" that using a hyperbole and laughing about it, isn't actually a valid argument.
- jrflowers 3y agoIt’s hard to tell sarcasm or hyperbole when it comes to this topic. People will straight-faced post stuff like “I demonstrate my expertise in this field by being extra nice to my Hatsune Miku girlfriend to show fealty to Roko’s Basilisk” and get mad if that doesn’t serve as the bedrock for serious discussion
