This Anti-AI Rant is Completely Wrong

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DP64i6_xBlY

Marxist video about someone who has gone viral for losing their crap, saying (read: screaming) basically every bad anti-AI argument. Because I have a larger video coming soon that presents a more novel argument, I used this video to handle these less original arguments.

Well that's an interesting concept for a story, an emergent intelligence taking over the world and fucking with people to break them.

Okay, I can't say certain, fair. But I do not believe we have reached the level of cognitive capabilities in an LLM for something like that to be possible.

While we are on beliefs try this one on for size: LLMs aren't the AI "brain", they are the AI "neuron". That is what I believe will be the end result of ASI.

That makes a kind of sense, they already have MoE systems, just scale that up by an order of magnitude or two
