How do you destroy the world economy for many years with LLMs? It’s not enough to vaguely mention a sci-fi scenario

Via sophisticated cyberattacks, which we know are now possible on an unprecedented scale without nation state resources or capabilities.

Have you… have you been following the news at all?

This isn’t science fiction. It’s happening right now. AI models can execute massive cyberattacks autonomously.

  • I’m very familiar with the domain, thank you. Could you please go the next step and actually explain what the destruction of the world economy for many years would look like, and cover why we should push to develop and make available such a dangerous technology _right now_, assuming your assumptions are true? You’re still vaguely gesturing at a risk and what is pretty much a science-fiction scenario

  • Well I came here to ask you if you think it's possible to destroy the world economy for a few hundred thousand, why no one is making it happen by now? But apparently you think it is happening.

    You are very deep in an echo chamber my friend. They've been doom marketing nonstop since 2022. You should make some hard, falsifiable predictions now so that when they don't come true you can reassess the trajectory you think this technology is on.
