- happytoexplain 9mo agoLaw or war. Not saying it would happen.
- mapontosevenths 9mo agoIt was presented without explanation and can be ignored without explanation.
- jaredcwhite 9mo agoYou need an explanation of how people make norms & laws regarding what is acceptable or unacceptable in society and industry?
- mapontosevenths 9mo agoNo such claim was made, therefore no such claim needs to be refuted. If people want to engage in conversation they will have to use their words to do it.

But I feel like defeating Ai because there is not enough consistent water and power to give them means there is more pressing issues at hand...

- pixl97 9mo agoYea, this will work about as well as those image poisoners... they'll eat up more power, but won't have any effect at the end of the day.

- alfalfasprout 9mo agoAgreed, it's funny how people have taken unrestrained use of AI as an axiom at this point. There very much is still time to significantly control it + regulate it. Is there enough appetite by those in power (across the political spectrum)? Right now I don't think so.
- lbrito 9mo ago>There very much is still time to significantly control it + regulate it. There's also huge financial momentum shoving AI through the world's throat. Even if AI was proven to be a failure today, it would still be pushed for many years because of the momentum. I just don't see how that can be reversed.
