David Sacks said this is BS.

David Sacks Calls Out the AI Doomer Industrial Complex

Sacks exposes web of AI Doomerism:

Who are they? Three key nodes: -- Effective Altruists -- Former AI-focused Biden staffers -- Anthropic

Patterns: -- AI threat inflation: bioweapons, job loss, etc. -- Carried out by a network of groups primarily funded by EA billionaires

Goals: -- Global AI regulation -- " extreme restrictions on proliferation of computing power" -- Safety and security regulations -- Built-in "Woke AI" -- Picking 2-3 winners -- Similar to AI policy under Biden

fidla•8mo ago
David Sacks:

" These are people who fundamentally believe in empowering government to the maximum extent."

"My problem with that is, I actually think that probably the single greatest dystopian risk associated with AI is the risk that government uses it to control all of us."

"And out of all the risks we've talked about, that's the only one for which I've seen tangible evidence."

" So in other words, if you go back to last year when we had the whole 'Woke AI', there was plenty of evidence that the people who were creating these products were infusing their left-wing or woke values into the product to the point where it was lying to all of us and it was rewriting history."

" And there was plenty of evidence that the Biden EO was trying to enshrine that idea, basically trying to require DEI be infused into AI models."

" So I'm quite convinced that prior to Donald Trump winning the election, we were on a path of global compute governance where two or three big AI companies were going to be anointed as the winners, and the quid pro quo is that they were going to infuse those AI models with woke values."
