We are living the paperclip maximizer problem, except instead of paperclips it's data centers.
Well, we’re not even anywhere close to AGI yet, and the underlying problem of “the people running everything these days are not programmed to value living things - only money” Is pretty fucking obvious at this point
i wish it was agi doing this, then maybe it could be reasoned with. rich pieces of shit that are detached from reality and humanity can't.
The AGI you are talking about sounds woke, and that’s illegal under an executive order that takes effect at the end of the year, at least in the US.
We thought we'll get artificial intelligence, but all we got was organic stupidity.
That you don't need AGI for a paperclip maximizer was obvious a decade ago https://www.antipope.org/charlie/blog-static/2018/01/dude-you-broke-the-future.html
We don't even know if AGI is possible...
Funnily enough, I was just introduced to this fascinating little game about being a paperclip making machine.

I spent a good 3 or 4 hours playing instead of sleeping.
