I approve of the new slur term clanker gaining widespread adoption.

It's not new. It's from the ~~2008 animated Clone Wars TV show~~ 2005 video game Republic Commando. And it refers to a physical characteristic of battle droids LLMs don't have.

I feel like I heard clanker before clone wars but now when it’s said I definitely hear Cody saying it in my head

Had to look it up, but you're right. It's from three years earlier Republic Commando.

I feel like I heard it OUTSIDE of Star Wars though, I’d be surprised if Star wars itself came up with the term.

Clown Wars, because it was all staged.

AGI is not the stuff we should fear at this moment or near future. Fascist billionaires holding most of our multimedia is way more scary. 100% of the humans do not think they can be manipulated, but here we are look around. Whoever controls the information will govern the world. Nobody cares, aside for gullible CEOs, about AI replacing human workers, its just used to squeeze extra money out of them. They only care about the mass manipulation potencial, which is already started. +Surveillance ofc, but we are already trained to give up our rights without even reading the terms.

oh I should have answered the question:

Either totally separated from everyone because I refuse to give up my privacy, or in a jail cell because I am against surveillance.

in a mass unmarked grave after attempting to protect my kids from a fascist government that wants to rape and murder my kids just because they can.
