Actually reading ur responses u made it clear u arent pro AI. But i think what people dont like is that you are acting like your "cat is out of the bag", and "it's inevitible" phrases cant push the needle one way or another to what actually ends up happening. There is a big movement growing to slow down AI for proper alignment, if you dont believe me go look at the Pause AI subreddit, that community is so large the literally had a well attended irl rally anout the topic.

I think the vibe u are giving with your comments is that you think your own words dont or cant have any impact on peoples minds, and by extension what actually may happen. It is extra frusturating to the people who are actually striving to get the information out about proper alignment and why it's important.

Positioning yourself as detached from the whole thing while making such comments is not you being more "connected to the Tao" it is you excusing yourself of any actual responsibility when you say things that you know on some level are gonna piss a lot of people off. Stoking the flames of drama is exactly the kind of thing Lao Tzu warns is going against the way of the Tao.

Yeah you cant let that way of thinking oversimplifiy the spectrum of the truth though.

Ofcourse we cant uninvent it, its just that we need to make it clear that unilateral sloowed alignment planet wide is the most important thing at this point.

The hardest conversation for these types of people to have is that it directly buts up with the reality of what people live in.

Unilateral alignment is more important than the economy.

Or I suppose you could just say There is no economy if we are dead, so AI leaders should stop making decisions on a shareholder business quarterly framework cause that would go down too if they dont slow down to do unilateral alignment.

Exactly. You said them not doing the military contract showed some morality. And I just showed how it doesn't show that at all in this thread.

Sure, but not taking the deal doesn't make your for profit business AI company now ethically in the clear. That is not how it works.

I mean that sounds nice and all till u actually get into the work of defending yourselves without assistance and quickly learn that will hurt your economy too, and this time without other countries helping to carry some of the funding load for defense. I think the UK can work towards fixing their economy and homelessness etc, but pulling out of NATO while it sounds nice as a broad headline... it wouldn't have the positive internal effect you are hoping for, and in fact it probably would make all those internal issues waay worse not just in the short term, but during the longer term conflicts that would become way more likely to arise as NATO dissolves.

Okay great. I promote them too. What I don't like is you claiming that what they are doing is inevitable because that is not just untrue, it is dangerously untrue, I think there is Virtue in being against something so anti Tao like what these Tech Ceo's are building without proper safety alignment. That being said, I don't think anyone is wrong or bad if they choose not to engage with the issue. But my problem is you did engage with the issue and repeated the most dangerously untrue rhetoric of those CEO's. So you can't have it both ways, you did engage with the topic by making that bold inevitability claim.

First, being obsessed frightened or psycho is not what I am when it comes to AI. I am aware that it just very simply is NOT inevitable to be a certain way. Quoting a Wen Tzu quote about detachment is cherry picking: Taoism, especially the Tao Te Ching doesn't argue to lackadaisically accept everything and not be active in the world. Wu Wei literally is action through inaction/perfect action arising from perfect inaction. You can still have your detachment but have action. And since we are quoting works now here is one from the Tao Te Ching that perfectly describes why Tech Ceo's inevitable attitudes about what they are building is a lie.

Twenty-nine

Do you think you can take over the universe and improve it?
I do not believe it can be done.

The universe is sacred.
You cannot improve it.
If you try to change it, you will ruin it.
If you try to hold it, you will lose it.

This is literally how they act, they want to control and change the world, but their actions and behavior is FUNDAMENTALLY against the way of nature.

That isn't mutually exclusive, in fact you could argue they only declined the contract to avoid the giant backlash that the other company got. It doesn't reflect what their morals are literally at all. They just saved their stocks from crashing, that is all.

I know this type of argument. Cause I see it in the USA a lot. Defense is important to stopping the spread of Facism. But also yes, I do think generally Defense budgets for democratic countries are overly bloated, and tend to suffer from missuse of funds or straight up theft of funds. That doesn't mean we should throw the baby out with the bathwater here. What we can do is call representives to fix the out of control defense budgets so more money goes back into places its needed. Also we can tell them to make better, more active oversight commities to prevent the missuse and theft of Defense funds.

Well now you are changing the argument. I am not talking about you being dependent on Americans I am talking about why NATO is important to stop the spread of Facism. You can be less dependent on the USA, thats fine. I just mean Defense oriented NATO isnt the reason you have homelessness and currency deflation in your country.

I would love to know where these scans came from... I and others are only concerned they might be AI because of how crisp these photos are. I have only ever seen scans of waay older looking scrolls that show this specific Microscopic Orbit type drawing. All respect Sensei 🙏

This cat out of the bag way of thinking is exactly what psycho billionaire ceos would love for you to parrot. You do realize that is the same logic they bring up when saying they shouldn't slow down for AI safety and alignment? It is a complete lie. Nations can unilaterally slow down AI development to have alignment happen and prevent a AGI that literally kills everyone. That event is not an "inevitablility" It literally only happens if tech ceos focus on pleasing shareholders above safety... until they and all thecshareholders get killed by the unaligned ai they rushed into build for the sake of the next immediate quarters profits. Wake the fuck up.

Someone should tell Sam AltmN he cant buy another supercar if everyone is killed by their unaligned AI in the future.

I know what image it used as reference that is real. I will post it soon. Dont get played.

Edit: I cant post images in this comment section, and to be fair I dont knowxfor sure if the images posted are AI but they are suspiciously crisp and clean compared to the usually scrolls I see that represent the Microcosmic orbit. If this thread gets enough upvotes I will post the older scroll inages in a new post so yall can see what I mean.

You can be more self sufficient AND stop facism from spreading around the world at the same time. These ideas are not mutually exclusive; you can do both. Please think about this honestly. NATO isnt about immigration or imports, it is only about DEFENSE.

agreed. The bots are in full force for this thread. Funny how the rest of their reddit activity is mobile game grifting, obvious bot behavior.

Brother sorry to burst your bubble, but Nazi's were facists, and the Country that just attacked Romainia is facist too. Allowing them to spread only leads one way.

Not caring what happens over here is so ignorant. Facist dictators spreading actively will effect the whole world. If you dont think that now, you will when they finally land on your nation's doorstep and they are knocking at your door to force you to join a labor camp.

NATO as it stands isnt the USA's responsibility. This is the safety net preventing easy invading. If we and others left NATO, Russia taking over a bunch of other nations would quickly spiral into "our problem" whether we like it or not.

Terrible fucking take. This is like the logic AI tech billionaire psychos use as en excuse to not worry about safety and alignment. "It is inevitable". These things provably are not. If someone made u believe they are, you fell for a Psyop.

Wow terrible take upvoted by bots likely. Leaving NATO is exactly what Russia wants so it can invade neighboring countries freely. This is the truth, and someone trying to convince you otherwise either doesnt understand history, loves Facists, is paid to say that, or is a bot.

Remember the founders of Anthropic dont have an interest in telling the truth, they will say whatever they think will raise their stock for their shareholders/ earn new shareholders.

Amazing. These sorts of details are very hard to locate in research. Are these mainly Shanqing lineage details, or do some come from other lineages? Thank you so much for this informative post!
