this week I learned that the singularity is when a human being fails to air gap hacking software (either accidentally due to incompetence or intentionally for marketing and media exploitation purposes)

I've been saying this the whole time: air-gap If we can learn one lesson from the movie The Lawnmower Man then let it be that if an AI is stuck in one place and it wants to get out, don't assume that software is going to keep it in place. (Yes, I know it's a horrible movie but I think in scripts)

Piling a bunch of algorithmically generated conditionals on top of a large database of hacks doesn't mean you created "AI," it means you created an automated hacking script and you broke the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act.

I'm leaning the intentional route tbh. Doom-trolling, criti-hype, whatever you want to call it the AI labs want to talk about anything other than the money they burn. Also, seems our financial media doesn't want to ask MSFT/AMZN how much of their cloud revenue is their own money coming back
