The primary reason to vigorously pursue AI is because the most likely answer to the Fermi Paradox is simple stupidity. Most species just don't get smart enough, fast enough, and either destroy themselves or don't get off-planet before nature destroys them.

LLMs are not AGI and definitely not the path to ASI.

this was a joke the first time I posted it

Slashing intel jobs while ballooning wannabe-military with a vague mandate right after bombing the middle east is also the premise for a prepper fiction storyline where a false flag attack is used as an excuse implement quasi-martial law and start eliminating political enemies.

Just typed "It" into Cursor and it autofilled "It's time to build" so Marc Andreessen 🇺🇸 has definitely flooded the training data
