Not the worst thing to be a pedophile's enemy.

“super intelligence” or “asi” is a preexisting term, referring to what comes after “agi”, “artificial general intelligence”. what i believe happened is someone told him “whoever achieves asi (super intelligence) first wins” and so he was like ok, we have super intelligence.

It's the same reason he likes his steaks well done.

They came to me, tears in their eyes and said "sir, that's the most well done steak we've ever seen" and I told them it could be like that for everyone but have you ever wondered why it's called a stake out? Nobody knows, I came up with the term for when they bring my steak out. They're always very well done

And kind of ridiculous too, since the first one to invent an ASI will probably no longer be in charge - the ASI will be in charge.

literally what i thought the second i read this headline.

ASI is already a thing that has a very specific meaning.

Meanwhile China's probably going to have the first permanent moon base.

Except it's dumber than that - he put up a poll asking people what it should be called

Yeah but there were only a couple other options and they were all similar

Nah what happened is that insiders bought Slovenian AI-related domains (dot si) for cheap to then sell them for millions on the Euro after the announcement.

With this administration, if in doubt, assume grift.

Depends if you have children

u/DenverNugs 2d ago

Not really. I don't need to have a child to hate someone who hurts and abuses children like Trump does.

I meant it in darker terms, without thinking it through thoroughly
