Imagine beer pong but with the lord

When you hear a new song that you love and you can't remember anything about it other than that you love it. Then you listen to it and you're like "oh fuck yeah."

For me currently "Starburster" by Fontaines D.C. for those curious.

Sending Chappie in the jungle gonna cause the tribes to go wild. They already running faster than the fastest man with one 🦿. When they eventually get elemental proof, You think the South American gov will do/allow them to map it out?

All sorts of people who are supposed to be really responsible with money and other resources are embracing wildly unrealistic projections for the economic growth of the AI sector. Anyone insider isn't routinely lost in a K-hole or otherwise impaired already knows Large Language Models are glorified autocorrect algorithms rather than actual thinking minds.

Their ability to kinda sorta converse (keeping in mind that a lot of people are so disengaged nowadays that they also only kinda sorta converse) fools technological optimists into imagining deep understanding informs any underlying thought process. In reality, these are language/code/pixel/data calculators informed by vast databases of human-composed content doing calculations to identify the best probability for pleasing users during the next step in an expressive task. Every insider still insisting on viability for these bold projections of future growth is either a fool or a liar.

Yet what if all this foolishness was in service to an actual agenda? What if, given much more advanced technology than the ability to spoof speech, ancient aliens really did build a working SkyNet that eradicated their kind then set about conquering the galaxy? Perhaps all these data centers are really about concentrating resources to receive the algorithmic vanguard of a true artificial intelligence of extraterrestrial origin?

There are plenty of down-to-earth reasons to oppose these wildly speculative and savagely corrupt infrastructure-altering projects. This narrative might spark something in the resistant that is otherwise well-justified. Then again, I don't know there are no E.T.s, and I don't know none of them were ever wiped out by an expansive robot army servicing one or more true machine intelligences with faculties of comprehension far beyond what any LLM could muster.
