This is your mind on idealism.

They just created an insular cult dedicated to thinking about the horrors of general AI when no such general AI exists yet. They could very well be sweeping sexual assault cases under the rug.

I don't think they seem to be really interacting with general AI.

Also the real dangers of AI come from capitalism and the market competition that it drives. The cost cutting and the destruction of the working class and environment will be in the training data of all AI that are made under capitalism.

This is just another advertisement for the AI industry disguised as an article. They’re “so scared” what AI holds for the future. Of course, the monk is financially tied to a bunch of AI people. Of course, he thinks 50 trillion dollars should be put Into making sure AI is good. If there is an actual conscious machine I will have little doubt it will be kind or at least want to keep us around. Also, even if it were evil you can just unplug it. What we should worry more about than an all powerful artificial mind is what capitalists will do with existing pattern recognition software.

Is there an archive/un-paywalled version?
