It's time. It's time to take revenge on the nerds.

They're not nerds. They're the bullies who kicked everyone aside to make a rush to the big chair so they can cosplay as a geniuses.

Yeah so a giant fucking nerd

"accepting" nerds was a horrible mistake

nerds are, and have always been, at least as bad as the jocks.

These AI dipshits are vastly overestimating their own importance to humanity. Maybe the economy you’re excluded from and everyone else participates in is the healthy one, eh autocomplete man?

Listen, he would tell us how to structure the economy but he knows this is a conversation humans need to have with each other, no nerds allowed

Oh my god. I can’t believe they buried the lede like this.

Idk what I was expecting but being insulted to my face wasn't it!!

Just because I don’t wash doesn’t give him the right to generalize.

You wanna build a contraption this weekend?

And what was that crack about my “mass”?

"How do WE organize the economy, and how HUMANS think about THEIR lives."?! Did i read this while wearing the patented John Carpenter's They Live(tm) sunglasses?

we've been having this conversation for a while but the police just show up with tear gas ☠️

"You peons need to think very hard about enabling me to make money for no reason."

Maybe instead of *means* testing we could scale the payments inversely to the amount of electricity and potable water wasted by companies you founded or VC’d

It’s still meting my brain that we all went through necessary but terrible isolation for months and hated it and these dweebs are like…would you like…less human interaction?
Avatar
I was thinking the exact same thing. These dipshits lack the capacity to realize that true AI wouldn't buy their bullshit, or the bullshit of those who prop them up. Literally the only way to make AI support them would be to cripple it's intelligence

They spelled 'misanthropic' wrong.

Which of those is the dystopian part, the trillionaires or the unwashed masses?

Unfortunately I think we all know the answer

Here's the full quote. time.com/6990386/anth... I still think his ideas about what he wants instead of UBI or his views on the topic are clear as mud, but it seems clear he doesn't like the idea of there being AI-trillionaires that control everything.

The original interview Business Insider quoted makes it clear he's talking about AI bringing about a postlabor society. "AI systems will be better than most humans, maybe all humans, at doing most of the things humans do. And so we're really going to need to rethink a lot."
Anthropic's CEO on Being an Underdog, AI Safety, and Economic Inequalitytime.com Dario Amodei spoke with TIME about AI safety, the company's culture, and economic inequality.

( He also seems to be making a point that one government owning it all would be the same as one business owning it all, but that point is spread across two questions so it's not really clear. )

Anthropic CEO: fully automated luxury gay space communism would be dystopian.

Somedays I'm depressed because Star Trek has WWIII as canon, and then I see guys like this and think, but maybe we can only reach paradise through Armageddon's cleansing fire.

The good news: we get to live in the sci-fi future The bad news: it sucks
When I was a kid I heard about machine learning: one day when the computers got really big they'd be able to solve things, like win every boardgame and do really good text translation, maybe even solve protein folding. All of that came to pass! Amazing! Didn't realize how dumb that future would be.

Sci-fi future definitely heading for Expanse/Alien timeline as far as human development

"UBI isn't enough" oh nice "I need the poors to die" ah. ok.

ubi is just a bandage for capitalism to keep us poors from revolting 🤷🏻‍♂️

they need us desperate, but not desperate enough to again, revolt.

Reminds me of the scene in "Maus," where Vladek describes the food and living conditions in the camps as "just enough to make you die a little slower."

Really though, he said the quiet part out loud!

Dystopian for who? Dystopian for who, bitch?

💯 Allowing an individual to make $1 trillion and then taxing 99.9999% for redistribution seems like an ideal course, really. The eager libertarian gets to keep $1 million. That's a lot of money! And if it's not enough, hey, they're getting UBI....

The unwashed masses. Whew.

Not just anybody should be able to afford soap and water, y'know!

Unwashed masses are known to chop heads.

Listen if someone just brings him over here in about a month I have this great makeshift guillotine I'm building

I wish all these self-proclaimed titans would fuck off and go Galt like they've been threatening and let us live in peace already.

I wonder if "Under my administration, we're going to build those submarines and get the billionaires to pay for them" would get me elected. #BuildTheSub
