Fully subscribed to @pluralistic's closing remark about the deceitful and futile religion war between the #effective_altruism church and the #eacc cult, both profiting from a ridicolous #AI mysticism and "treating humans as things" (present time, meat and bone humans at least):
"It's because I'm a materialist that my primary concerns about AI are things like the climate impact of AI data-centers and the human impact of biased, opaque, incompetent and unfit algorithmic systems – not science fiction-inspired, self-induced panics over the human race being enslaved by our robot overlords." https://pluralistic.net/2023/11/27/10-types-of-people/
