Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence demonstrated by machines, unlike the natural intelligence displayed by humans and animals, which involves consciousness and emotionality. The distinction between the former and the latter categories is often revealed by the acronym chosen.

Why can’t they get their AI to do that?

See, what's great about this is: when they eventually get taken down for all the privacy violations, theft and future societal harms, they will already have all the politicians they need in their pocket so we won't be able to regulate them or break them up

Sounds like standard Capitalist practices if you ask me.

NSA on the board. Scores of lobbyists on the payroll. OpenAI is speedrunning an attempt at monopoly.

And with broken tech. Cornering the market on plagiarism and botslop fiction.

Botslop will be a useful word for describing things, thank you.

I really hope it turns out to be a clown show.

I'm afraid of the minuscule chance that something really big is already behind the scenes being worked on

care to elaborate on the possibilities of “really big” that you’re imagining?

Hmmmm. Well, I didn't have anything particular in mind. I think it's probable that as the sophistication of these technologies continues to grow, they're going to have enough data points to start surfacing patterns too subtle for humans to readily notice. And I would also imagine that, even though it's a regurgitation machine, you would still want to see what happens if you try to have some experts throw the unsolved problems of their fields at it.

Stuff like that is probably ongoing, and, maybe this is me being a cynic, but if suddenly paradigm shifts were made by a private company, I would probably expect an effort to keep it quiet for a while. To do a risk assessment, or maybe just to gain advantage.

"oh no, we need all the tax payer money to sustain our super profitable business".

"Ya ok".
