Disturbing thought: aaaaalllll thooose yeeeears we have been talking about<br>
the singularity and the risk of unfriendly AI, nearly 30 years now, and in<br>
all those years, in all that discussion… I don’t recall we ever even thought<br>
of the possibility that has emerged from the fog with ChatGPT: the risk of a<br>
kind of unfriendly “AI” that isn’t sentient at all, that doesn’t have a<br>
will, that came into being somehow, with or without human direct influence,<br>
analogous to a new virus in some ways, that has the potential to be<br>
destructive as all get out, not because it wants to be (it doesn’t want<br>
anything) but just because of what it is.<br>
