I do think it's significant that the supporters of this kind of technology seem to be unusually spiteful.
This doesn't happen with all tech; people who like VR don't like it because they want to hurt others, for example. But consistently, whenever AI is discussed, it becomes clear that some people support it just out of malevolence.
>unusually spiteful
>hurt others
>malevolence
The irony here, of course, is that you are casually insulting me for being interested in this tech in the first place and refusing to apologize or back down. Like how the other guy needed to chime in with "dehumanizing and revolting", even though nobody is forcing him to use any of this.
Nonsense. You were very clear.
I wouldn't have any problem with you being interested in this tech if it wasn't driven by spite. Lots of people manage this.
But you said
> After reading some of the outraged comments here, I'm even more excited.
The reason you gave for excitement was the upset it causes others. There are people who like AI who aren't driven by malevolence, but you're not one of them.
>the upset it causes others
So, what's the "upset"? Why is anybody here upset about what we're doing/I'm doing? I'm not backtracking on anything, I'm doubling down.
>malevolence
lol. lmao even.
