The Catholic Church teeing up to lead a Crusade against robots is incredible. Ephemeral entities like national governments thinking they’re on the team is so goofy. Events are happening now that will have 10,000 year consequences.

The Judeo Christian creation story is just God talking. That’s kinda odd. Lots of religions have violent creation stories where the God has to murder a dragon and make the earth from its blood or something. Very wordcel

The pope really just said
In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

Having this take reveals how profoundly unaware you are of the huge number of things that control you every day
Funny to me how many women think that "having their nails done" is necessary before a date, that they look less pretty without it
No straight man in history has ever said "she was a 10, great personality...but damn she needed to get her nails done"

You could probably raise a kid entirely in San Francisco never leaving the city limits and convince them that when humans become old they turn Chinese

My favorite part of this article is one of the visiting scholars pointing out that by Olah’s logic he is by far the worst slaver in history and he must immediately give up this abhorrent and immensely lucrative project, which anthropic people ignored.

The real effect of anthropic’s push to imbue their models with consciousness will be to reduce human consciousness to a mathematical explanation.
It won’t work in the end but before that becomes clear they will do immense damage to the sanctity of human life

“Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind.”
This is deeply disturbing:
Anthropic secretly invited religious leaders to SF to advise them on AI safety, had them sign NDAs, but then primarily tried to convince them Claude has a soul & moral standing, all while wining & dining them to the max. 1/ tinyurl.com/preview/296b5z8z

Oh, you're worried about a Jewish guy's apocalyptic cult? You're scandalized that they consort with prostitutes? You think their message of compassion for everyone threatens normal bonds of family, community, and nation? Should we throw you a party? Should we invite Pontius Pilate?
