I don’t know or particularly care what “anti-AI” thought leaders think. I don’t get my views from a camp.

The person above believes that in a year, or 3 years, or 10 years that they will remain an “operator” of the AI, and that their creativity will be amplified at the expense of the dumb luddites who will be left in the dust. Very common in tech, more disappointing in the arts. This is incorrect - we will in short order on the current trajectory see cognitive “dark factories” announced by hyperscalers or labs that produce an infinite stream of content, or software, or anything else and rapidly outcompete all human endeavor. To some this is Human Progress, to me it’s a dark age.

> I don't know

You said it.

> or particularly care what "anti-AI" thought leaders think. I don't get my views from a camp.

You said this: "they had a point." So, "I don't know or particularly care what "anti-AI" thought leaders think." is clearly a lie.

> I don't get my views from a camp.

But you speak on it? Gotcha.

> we will in short order on the current trajectory see cognitive "dark factories" announced by hyperscalers or labs that produce an infinite stream of content, or software, or anything else and rapidly outcompete all human endeavor.

To think yourself so pathetic and useless is sad.

Regardless, my request remains unfulfilled.

Why do you welcome it?

I made a specific point, you didn’t like it. I’m not saying this from some sort of inferiority complex, it is literally a product category that is probably going to be announced in an OpenAI blog post in the next 12-24 months or at the next Google IO.

> why do you welcome this?

I… don’t…
