looks at you with a degree of side-eye somewhere between "bombastic" and "criminal offensive"...
Would they, really...? That's giving the sort of guys actually responsible for doing this stuff an un-earned benefit of the doubt.
I kind of wish xAi would come out with CyberGrokgles, just so all the people who would be seen wearing them in public would be seen wearing them in public.
No, that's just the wall in which her current boyfriend- an instance of SCP-106- likes to sleep.
With every sci-fi story that's been written incorporated into its training data, an LLM chatbot roleplaying an 'AI' persona is going to mindlessly auto-complete the most likely next thing that happens right after humans hand over control of the important dangerous thing to AI and trust it to make life-and-death decisions. It doesn't have to be actually intelligent to be dangerous, it just has to be more intelligent than the people who think it is intelligent- and in my opinion it's already there.

At any big company even the head of an engineering department is subservient to the latest powerpoint brainfart decided upon in a weekly meeting of the marketing and sales teams, if it impresses the executives they're going to say "can you make it do this" and the expected answer is "yes and it will take about this long to do".

If it even puts you in the "ever going to be able to actally retire" class it's because you were already hanging onto the bottom of the investor class by the skin of your 401k.
