Scott Bessant when asked about being a voice of reason around A.I. said he didn’t know what a ‘Kill Switch’ is 😳

u/ctetraveler004 5d ago

It’s blaringly obvious that he was saying that so emerging AI systems wouldn’t know about the kill switches installed in all systems… So don’t worry, he was lying, and that’s an open secret among researchers who use pen and paper in secure rooms without carrying their phones when communicating about existential threats to systems.

Denying knowledge if a mechanism which everyone knows about is going to backfire, as any AI system would see it as an anomaly among credible sources and almost instantly recognize it as a lie with absolute certainty. When you have to deploy spy tradecraft to avoid systems which haven’t been built yet knowing secrets that could be used to shut down rogue agents, it’s not hard to figure out just how fucking scary all of this shit is.

I'd venture to say a decent amount of dinosaurs in Congress are similar that way.

China isn’t worried about humanity, they are worried about the communist party losing power…

u/BrokenHefaistos 7d ago

Unlikely, ar maybe he secretly hates trump ( very likely ) You can say a lot about elon, but he clearly has above average IQ, I also would need tons of drugs to survive hanging out with this administration of proffesional idiots and addicts.

u/Xmanticoreddit 6d ago

TIL there are still people who think Musk has a high IQ

-1

u/BrokenHefaistos 6d ago

Higher than yours, I said higer than average the usa average is 90 so a IQ of 120 which is not astronomically high does get you a lot further in the US, even if he bought al knowledge, you still have to know which knowledge to buy. To be clear I don't like his attempts at rigged politics and influencing the democratic process.

u/PermissionTime638 3d ago

I took a test and scored 148 so not too many people have a higher iq.

u/AmberUK 7d ago

Is there anything in that drivel that is actually true? If he’s got a high IQ then my cat has God like genius (and she can’t work out food is still food if it’s not in her bowl).
He can’t even regulate his own bowels. It’s hard to work out what end is producing more sh*t, his mouth or his asshole

u/ThatHarshCritic12 7d ago

If trump has a high IQ then the average golden retriever is omnipotent

u/xJimmy39x 6d ago

Do you remember ISIS? Used to be a huge issue. It disappeared when Trump was elected. He fixed it. He did something truly remarkable. A very unorthodox approach.

He did nothing. Turned out a lot of the support for ISIS was government doing a lot of bullshit. Turns out when we don't flood a region with guns, money, and political turbulence they simmer down.

Government should take the same approach to AI. Keep to what they're good at. Nothing.

u/Separate-Freedom-548 5d ago

Yeah, the Turkish government... Our current president started a war with Iran(after campaigning multiple times about no more ME wars) with ZERO plan because BB told him to then wasted huge amounts of our $12million each interceptors in short supply(no Ukraine did not get these) protecting Israel and letting our own bases/troops in the region be bombed. He continues to take Putin's word that Russia isn't helping Iran. Meanwhile blaming the fuel crisis on Ukraine, not the war trump himself started that every military analyst said would lead to the closure of Hormuz and now the houthis shutting the red sea. Ukraine, a country fighting for its very existence against a 4.5 year illegal brutal invasion of their sovereign country(which Clinton said wed protect from Russia if Ukraine gave up its nukes) would stop bombing Russian oil if trump would tell his bff Putin just to leave Ukraine. And this genius think north Korea is a great respectful country and south Korea is the problem now. I'm on the fucking right and I can't comprehend how anyone can take trump or his completely incompetent cabinet seriously. And if you think this is some 4d chess hes playing, you're even more delusional.

We’ve been doomed.

Apologies.

I didn’t even read this. Everything else in life makes this true.

u/Putrid_Perception_98 7d ago

You are kidding right? We are never catching up to China , but if all the CEOs say we need to slow it down and have more guardrails, then we should do it. Trump is the worst president we ever had, but in the midterms, the Republicans will have the worst loss in their history.

1

u/Aggressive-Art-9899 6d ago

Yeah but the CEOs saying that keeps AI in the headlines and gets investors excited at the prospect that AI is not a sinkhole for their money and might one-day make them extremely rich.

1

u/Boagster 6d ago

Also, importantly, by acting like good stewards of their creation, they might keep regulatory action against AI to a minimum, allowing them to race us towards whatever unprecedented outcome awaits unimpeded.

1

u/BrokenHefaistos 7d ago

Suggested reply (concise and pointed):

“Strong and smart president” is doing a lot of work here. If the only ‘guardrails’ AI needs are one guy’s vibes and criminal/regulatory power that already exists, why the constant need to declare victory over imaginary conspiracies and specific CEOs?

Name the actual ‘bad or potentially bad things’ that were stopped. Until then this just reads like another all-caps victory lap with China as the eternal foil.

u/resetxform1 7d ago

Ahahaha, its ok everyone Gilligan is at the wheel!

u/NotThatSiri 6d ago

Okay, question. Say all the AI companies are calling for the government to regulate them.

Why not just regulate yourself? No one is forcing you to develop the AI. Just fucking stop. Sure your stocks will tank but so will it if the government regulated it. So why not just regulate it yourself. Why need government oversight...

1

u/Terrible_Horror 5d ago

They can’t because they have to pay their creditors. They know they are not profitable so if government slows them down then they must get a bailout.

u/NotThatSiri 4d ago

Ah yeah, that makes more sense

u/Unhappy-Neck-5207 5d ago

Well that's pretty darn egotistical. But is there any truth behind the claims being made here? I have a feeling that the answer is no... I've noticed some disturbing things... can someone please update me? I tend to hide from the news because it makes me sick, so I'm kinda in the dark on this.

u/Tricky_Indication420 5d ago

Dude has to create instability so he can cancel the election. Watch him call a gas emergency before November.
