s'alright, tho. It was always a cynical marketing strat to convert hyper-online nerd anxiety into investor hype. may want to check on Big Yud. Idk if anyone has heard from him since his Time Mag article coming onto a year old now, not that I tried.
Some of the risks the team worked on included "misuse, economic disruption, disinformation, bias and discrimination, addiction, and overreliance."
Conspicuous lack of grey goo or hyper-persuasive brainhacking. Still really good at being confidently wrong about basic shit!
you just made me extremely aware of where i was, what i was doing, and how i was feeling, when i found out that the yud had an article in Time, and I am going to sue for the whiplash of realising how short a time ago that was
[what 2024 would look like if Big Yud had been allowed to first strike data centers in the mid-2010s meme - wizzy flying cars, big tubular buildings, and so on]
