Too many koi fish is stressful (and slow)

I'd love a version without the multiplayer and just zen

Good points, and I'll keep in mind. It might be I'm just sensitive to this narrative, especially in media. Writers need to also take the extra step and assign the agency to the operators and not the nameless AI.

I don't doubt that, but that's not what he wrote.

It is also not how OpenAI or Anthropic position the attacks and escapes from their labs. The words matter, they are being positioned as intelligent and unable to be controlled which is just not true.

> I’m fearful of the damage AI might cause: agent swarms taking over our virtual and physical infrastructure, designing bio weapons

The attitude that AI is doing things all on its own is so pervasive. These are all set off by human operators, giving them instructions and tools to do whatever it is that are doing. The "AI has a mind of its own" attitude is just wrong.

The fear of bad people using AI to do bad things is very different then AI agent swarms attacking and taking over.

The 256GB option is +$4,000 - the overall price for 512GB setup would probably be $20k!

You probably shouldn't use a system if you don't understand what it might do. You are the culpable force setting the action into motion.

That graph has to be made because an Exec didn't like that graph went down to the right instead of up and to the right. How do you make a graph with 0 on the far right and counts up by going left of 0? What number line is that?

The game theory is all wrong, this is a cooperative game, either they both win or both lose. I don't see how the Donkey getting hit by a car should be classified as "Donkey wins"

Every Thursday, the ice cream man comes down our street. The price is usually around ~$20 to buy happiness for a family of 4.
