Application of unrefined AI in the context of deadly machinery is a real and immediate AI-danger. Self-refining, wolrd-dominating AI is at present time just a distraction from this.

It seems to me to go just so far as one is willing to believe thought can be a crime in itself. "Oh so you believe this or that? Well you now embody those beliefs and are complicit in all crimes motivated by them. Your mere presence is

It feels like this new "tolerance" somehow connotates "without bias" instead of "despite bias", which opens an avenue for persecuting perceived or potential bias (by some reasoning from base moral values) as a

In a sense, defining away human intelligence is the whole point. We have no servicable definition of intelligence other than a behaviourist black box embodied by humans. From the perpective of AI-research any progress will chip away bits fr
