That AI safety is much more important than AI hurting copyright or artists.

I say this because the "AI sucks haha" and "AI just steals" retoric is very harmful to AI safety movement as people just don't believe AGI or even close-to-AGI will be capable enough to harm our society.

Currently many estimate that there's 1-20% chance that AGI could end our civilization. So fuck the copyright and fuck the artists when we're looking at ods like this we need to start preparing now even if it's 10 years away.

But alas, nobody can't think further out than the length of their nose and honestly I'm just hoping we're lucky enough to be in that 80% because clearly we're not going to do anything about it.

I didn't think folks actually care about ads as much as you think. This place is a bubble in that regard.

For me that America isn't a hellscape for most. Yes there is disparity and it's growing, we should correct that. But gen z is still buying homes (more than millennials), most people have decent albeit over priced health care, and live better than large portions of the world.

That there are AI art generators that use licensed art and/or public domain and open licence images. People so deep in the "AI art is theft" shtick they don't even wanna hear it.

I'm tired of helping and educating people about how using "bipolar" to describe things like the weather or a job is problematic

nothing. absolutely nothing. if ppl would wanna know they'd ask. let them use facebook, iphone, crude oil and whatever floats their boat. all tipping points have been reached. no need to stress anyone anymore.
