    AI development has a few factions. People that want to make and fuck their AI daughter/girlfriend. Researchers that want to under the basis of the human mind. Capitalists that want to convert human intelligence into capital they can fully own (slavery is the first attempt). Then finally cultists that want to make God in their image.

    It’s a crazy field for someone that is fascinated by thinking about thinking and want to make useful little tools.

      It’s not real though. It’s part of their stupid guerilla psyslop marketing. They’re trying to pump the bubble.

        have you met people? i would give this the benefit of the doubt. 5 years until humans start crusades for AI against AI. lots of “Grok spoke to me of the evils of Claude”
