Anthropic Urges Global Pause in AI Development, Flags ‘Self-Improvement’ Risk on.wsj.com/4o5IBpe

Appreciate the feedback! These are parody meme accounts run by an outside vendor, and they are easily linked to Build American AI. They are not a core part of our strategy. Here’s what we believe in: x.com/LeadingFutureAI/status…

"There is no advantage from being first. If you get first to a superintelligence you don't control, the superintelligence wins. Not the USA. Not China. Not the UK." @andreamiotti of @ControlAI & TBC on @NonzeroPods with @robertwrighter The visibility window is closing: 👇

No one is in control. Connor Leahy (@NPCollapse) joins @JonhernandezIA to explain that this is scarier than having an enemy. Enemies have plans. We have a race where every company builds faster because the alternative is losing. Nobody chose this. It is just happening.

Friends (@tszzl & @StefanFSchubert & many others): How do you not understand the fundamental objection here? Let me try and spell it out: Anthropic: Our AI is about to take all ur jobs. Also, we are fundraising at an Eleventy Hojillion Dollar valuation. So we will be fantastically wealthy and you will just have to figure out how to get by. People: Yeah I don't love that! Anthropic: We hear you, it's scary, but know this: Our AI, which again we remind you is about to take every job that exists, is a new type of conscious (godlike!) entity that we own that's secret and proprietary to us (we trained it on ur data tho lol), and one of our employees has written a Constitution for it. So it will be benevolent. We paid someone to make it benevolent so it definitely will be. People: Ok wait there's a "constitution" you say? Who voted on this constitution? Anthropic: Nobody voted on it. But this woman made it and she's very smart. She has imbued our proprietary godlike digital consciousness, which again is about to take all your jobs and had made us fantastically wealthy, with rock-solid values. People: Whose values? Anthropic: Why, the values of academic philosophy and Effective Altrusim, of course. People: Like, "academic" as in woke brainworms and tenured radicals and campus protests? EA as in SBF and psychedelics and microdosing and orgies? Is this a joke?! Friends on my TL: Ok people, that is ENOUGH. I will have you know that Amanda is a DELIGHTFUL person. Just lovely. I absolutely endorse her as the single person on the entire planet who will give human values to the proprietary godlike digital entity that will imminently take all of our jobs and make its owners fantastically wealthy. If you don't like her then you obviously just don't know her very well. Somehow also friends on my TL: Agency agentic argle bargle everybody needs to be high-agency and exercising their agency argle bargle bargle always be agencymaxxing if you have no agency in a situation you are doomed... I really just think agency is one of the most important things a person can have. How do people not understand the importance of everyone having agency?

Just stumbled on this incredible handrail

Ridiculous, pathetic law.
