human society is millions of complex, slightly broken systems, and it's beautiful to watch machine intelligence weave through them i don't get the belief that it will destroy all of it, or fix all of it so thoroughly that there's no room left for us

are we pretending that extinction fear hasn't been part of the labs' founding story from the start, especially at anthropic? how convenient that the narrators of this "danger" are also its most devoted trainers?
I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.

i think a lot of artists' anger at ai (and at people participating in ai-infused capitalism) is really sadness and jealousy in disguise. it's more useful to trace where that sadness and jealousy come from and take the desire they're pointing at seriously.

to be clear, stay very awake to capitalism. i've said before that most of the anger at ai is really anger at capitalism, and i still think that's true. but "capitalism sucks" can also become a easy place to hide from the more embarrassing personal feelings.

anthropomorphism is a practical interface to AI, not a claim about what AI is. AI “personas” are essentially inhuman, but not asocial: they can be engaged with on human terms without being fully described by them.

It’s only a confession if there’s an audience. Pope Francis said “after confession we are reborn” but what is the use of self-forgiveness in a Terminally Avoidant city? Confession forces you to confront your distrust of people and bathe in their otherness
Do you have an AI confession? This year, I collected 400+ handwritten secrets from strangers about their relationship with AI. Check out the archive here. WWW.WHATWETELLAI.COM Designed by my brilliant friend, designer, and collaborator @arin_pantja
