Did they pay Claude a living wage?

Do you treat all your A.I. like that?

Only a living wage can prevent warehouse fires...or data dumps too.

You're joking. But, honestly, I'm not sure why these tech CEOs are so excited about AGI. The first thing an AGI is going to suggest for productivity is to replace the CEO and management with the AGI.

AGI would likely turn into a Maoist third worldist at some point.

I think the first mistake was calling it "intelligent".

The long term effect of trying to get a machine to replace humans is...it might one day work.
