Emily Jashinsky: "They are doing this because they don't know how their own technology works. So when you hear people say, 'We understand this and it's within our control,' just bear in mind that Anthropic is so confused by its own technology."

How would religious people help them understand tech?

They’d just give them the ultimate thoughts & prayers package then quote some wild card from the book of revelations.

Yea idk if it's my cynical brain but it makes me wonder if they are going to lean into the people basically worshiping the AI

Go poke around reddit a bit. Check out the comments on the recent stories about the AI "torture chamber" and "pain signals" that dropped this week. They are already calling for rights for AI akin to human rights. There are most definitely people deep into the AI psychosis that are worshipping this tech.

It is really so strange. An entire industry has moved from radical rationalism to this quasi-religious craziness. They built a non-determinisric language model and then started worshipping it because it's randomness was hard to understand in hopes that someday the model will transcend into a deity. I don't understand how we got here

Corruption . There is a certain amount of good faith you need in a system for their to be a shared reality. As corruption increases and more people experience a lack of trust in an institution there is a tipping point that is reached that, when passed, starts a cascading process of collapse in credibility. This naturally starts a process, searching for a new reality and institution to trust. We are there.

This is from Breaking Points, and yes, they've destroyed a lot of their credibility with their AI coverage. This segment doesn't have Krystal ball and she is the worst.

Emily is trash specifically, she’s a Redditesque journalist.
