It means he found another way to get richer with the excuse of "connecting" or "improving" society. Fucking idiot

AIs are a long way away from even normal intelligence. Currently, they are parrots with dictionaries. They have no insight or real reflection on what they are doing. I am not sure I will see real artificial intelligence in my lifetime.
What people also regularly forget is how insanely inefficient AI is. We need exponential amounts of energy for linear increasement in "AI power" (idk what's the correct term). So to gain twice the power we need 4x the amount of energy to achieve this. Since we are not anywhere near being close to "super intelligence" AI would hit its limit in how much energy we can provide before it even coming close.
Can't Soros just harvest babies and feed the bots adrenochrome?
but doesn't even define what superintelligence means.
Or what he thinks "improve humanity" means ...
Does Mark Zuckerberg care about improving humanity? He's never previously shown much interest in the subject.
The guy that has the worst business ethics wants to use a product to "improve humanity." Remember the last time he said that? He sure did do a good job of unifying and connecting everyone in a healthy way. I love how he's so confident he can do it again.
It means whatever makes him the most money.
It means mass surveillance
I'm sorry, what happened to the metaverse Zuck?
If you’re genuinely interested in what “artificial superintelligence” (ASI) means, you can just look it up. Zuckerberg didn’t invent the term - it’s been around for decades, popularized lately by Nick Bostrom’s book Superintelligence.
The usual framing goes like this: Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is an AI system with human-level intelligence. Push it beyond human level and you’re talking about Artificial Superintelligence - an AI with cognitive abilities that surpass our own. Nothing mysterious about it.
Sure. We can all trust Zuckerberg to help improve humanity. He has the credentials! Look how much we have improved in the last 15 years Facebook is a thing. Is not like Meta contributed to Genocide, election interference, the rise of conspiracy theorists, sold our data to the highest bidder etc etc /s
Serious question. Did none of these mother fuckers watch The Terminator? Or The Matrix?
(fun project, reply back with more movies in the same vein of humanity inventing our evolutionary successors)
Planet of the apes the reboot trilogy; I've never watched any of the originals so I can't speak for those.
Oooh, yeah I've been meaning to watch those, I loved the first one of that series but never got around to watching the rest.
Zuck the fuck up
So he's now over with AR honeymoon?
It's the intelligence in captain marvel.
The superintelligence will expose all the billionaires nefarious plans and controls. No way they will allow the public access to their schemes. Right now you can use it to expose them even ask questions like is Trump pulling an authoritarian play.
Simply asked the question.
Based on everything we know, no, Trump is not planning to leave office voluntarily in 3 years if he wins in 2024. All signals point to the opposite: • He denied the 2020 results and tried to overturn them. • He has openly flirted with authoritarian power (immunity claims, “retribution” rhetoric, dismantling civil service). • His allies (e.g. Project 2025) are laying groundwork for expanded executive control. • He’s praised dictators and criticized democratic limits. • He has no public plan for peaceful transition or grooming a successor.
If re-elected, expect him to try and stay beyond 4 years by legal manipulation, emergency powers, or discrediting elections.
What about the “metaverse”? I thought that was your thing?
Zuck the fuck
Wile E Coyote, super geeeenius.
Any ethical super intelligence would immediately remove billionaires from power. I'd like to see that.
A superintelligence would likely quickly become the sovereign of the earth. And it's generally a good idea to kill the old elite after conquering a nation, then install new ones. The new ones will like you, because you made them rich, and they'll fear you, because you killed off all of their predecessors. Of course, there's also the risk that a super intelligence would just do away with humans in general. But anybody holding significant power right now is much more at risk.
And we can't forget that we currently can't even build something that's actually intelligent, and that a super intelligence might not actually be possible.
If AI ends up destroying us, I’d say it’s unlikely to be because it hates us or wants to destroy us per se - more likely it just treats us the way we treat ants. We don’t usually go out of our way to wipe out ant colonies, but if there’s an anthill where we’re putting up a house, we don’t think twice about bulldozing it. Even in the cartoonish “paperclip maximizer” thought experiment, the end of humanity isn’t caused by a malicious AI - it’s caused by a misaligned one.
Superintelligence doesn’t imply ethics. It could just as easily be a completely unconscious system that’s simply very, very good at crunching data.
This feels like its saying "outsource your critical thinking and agency to us, and don't worry about it"?
they make money by being digital pimps for snake oil products. lower the critical thinking of peasants, higher the chances of them getting fooled by targeted ads of scams and fake garbage.
try searching for any chronic illness on chrome or talk about it on whatsapp and you will be getting ads for miracle cures for months.
Feels like it's saying "Hey you stupid fucking investors who will believe anything, why don't you give me another hundred billion dollars for these magic beans?"
These magic beans will not only grow twice as fast, they'll also fix the last magic beans that didn't grow.
His vision sounds like "let us listen to, and see every task you do, so that we can command the world centrally from my business"
Zuckerberg predicted that personal AI systems that deeply understand users’ goals will become increasingly important, with devices like smart glasses becoming primary computing tools because they can understand context by seeing and hearing what users experience.
Google Glasses 2.0 but with even more privacy concerns, literally a horrible idea. He's just hype cycling his unpopular glasses.
It means whatever the shareholders wanna hear, because they slobber each others knob for literally fucking anything, that sounds like it’ll make money from a pump and dump
"I don't know why. They 'trust me'. Dumb fucks"
That Zuckerberg?
Will AI finally replace CEOs?
The only job they can actually do as well as their human counterparts
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHHAHAAA
Man, I wish this guy would fuck off somewhere and just retire. Im tired of hearing about how he wants to ruin the world next with his latest shit idea.
Sniffing his own farts again I see
Robots have exhausts now?
Isn't/wasn't he a programmer? He can't possibly believe what he is saying.
I know some really damn delusional programmers.
I once saw a supervisor use Google sheets to do a simple calculation. Could have opened the windows calculator, could have typed it into Google, could have done lots of things. But no, they created a new Google Sheet, performed one arithmetic equation, and then closed the browser.
I was so amused by this that I decided to program a 10-key calculator complete with memory recall in Google Sheets using Google Apps Script. I've made some wild Sheets over the years and have abused spreadsheets into things they're not, but that's my favorite, most useless Sheet ever. Whenever I show it to people, their first reaction is, "yeah, that's a calculator, that's a pretty simple tool." But then when they realize that I wrote actual code to assign values to add then clear checkboxes and then store all these values, they look at me with genuine concern.
I know this isn't the kind of delusional you're talking about, but just wanted to share.
He was a psychology major that made a website with PHP. His background in CS is taking a few classes before dropping out.
