On October 20, in dozens of places across the country, people will walk out to Freeze AI. We've had enough of Big AI shoving this technology down our throats. We demand a say in how it's developed and deployed, and real safeguards. Here are just a few of the planned walkouts 🧵

“Biological bootloader” is just a fancy way of saying he wants robots to replace humans.

Propagating super intelligence to the stars is a great success condition for a biological bootloader

The subtext here: @sama believes the only people who get to make decisions about who benefits and who bears the costs of AI are him and his billionaire Big AI buddies. To him, “democracy” doesn’t mean popular control of AI - it just means everybody gets a ChatGPT account.

“Let ExxonMobil regulate fossil fuels.” “Let Pfizer regulate drug safety.” “Let JPMorgan regulate Wall Street.” “Let OpenAI and Anthropic regulate AI.”

This is like Exxon scientists in the 70s warning that global warming could cause human suffering and destroy the planet. Exxon raced forward to drill, pump, and burn historic amounts of oil and gas anyway. With AI, there’s a lot less runway. Let’s not make the same mistake.
Jacob is correct here—we really do earnestly believe AI could kill all humans! I personally think it is >10% within the next decade. I believe Anthropic is trying its best, but we do not yet have a plan to solve alignment for superintelligence and are not clearly on track to.
