Isn't it fascinating how multiple successive hype trains have had the same functional command of "Build Me More Teraflops, Human"?

I sometimes wonder if the AGI wasn't here all along . . .

We never did find out who "Satoshi Nakamoto" actually was.

I'm not seriously suggesting that an AGI has been in the wild since circa 2010s, but . . stranger things have happened. All through the aughts, then the teens, GWoT had been funneling an absolutely bananas amount of money into compute. What if, in those years, something horrifying happened, and it's already taken over. That would explain so much weirdness.
