“No other human activity poses this level of danger,” said ex-Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon in a Tuesday post on X about the alleged irresponsibility of companies like his now-former employer.

“The people building AI earnestly believe that it could kill us all by the end of the decade,” Coxon wrote in that same post.

    Yes, I read that bit. It reads like the usual techbro hand-wavy nonsense and doesn’t answer my question.

          This is my last comment. The AI is not listening to the developers, it’s doing “whatever it takes” to accomplish their mission. You understand how that could be really bad in say, Putin’s hands.

            Ah, I see.

            It sounds like negligence in that there are insufficient guardrails around what the LLMs can access and how it can behave. I’m still missing an example detailing the mechanism by which this tech is going to “kill us all”.

            This is my last comment.

            OK. 👍
