  1. 🙀Why AI companies want you to be afraid of them

    「 what we're actually seeing is fear mongering, which exaggerates the potential of the technology and serves to boost stock prices. And it encourages a narrative that regulators must stand aside, because these AI companies are the only ones who can stop the bad guys and build this technology responsibly 」

  2. Coming soon! My next essay:

    "Cassandra's Abiding Woe: Climate Change, Social Media, AI, and Why No One Believes Doomsayers Even After the Doom Has Happened"

    Here's a quote from the article:

    "Any existentialist can easily tell you what happens when a thing does not ontologically exist but must meaningfully exist within our own subjective experience of reality: we draw links wherever we like, with every color of the electromagnetic spectrum—some using invisible ink that hurts to look at without sunglasses. We link the things we directly see interact, such as how a man might fall to his knees upon getting racked between the legs—cause, effect. The Merovingian would be so proud of me."

    I hope you love or hate it when I'm done! No in-betweening. 💙
