They believe that they're so powerful, these individuals, that they can create God.
And that by creating God, they are like this Prometheus kind of species.
It literally is...
the ultimate level of narcissism and delusion of grandeur to think you can create God.
And that then the God you create, like you're saying, Bill, is gonna be so benevolent and perfect that you constructed the perfect God that will give you your pellet, will give you your little Skinnerian,
Right.
But to your point of like just taking them at their word, they actually believe that they can create God and that they'll create a God so good that it's better than humanity.
Sax, your thoughts?
Well, I guess the question then is why are they pushing for the let's call it red capture agenda where โ I know one.
To steel man their position for a second, I mean, I think probably the way they think about it is that they are creating something very powerful, something godlike, and therefore it needs to be safe.
And that they care the most about that out of everybody.
Nobody else takes this seriously.
Remember that Anthropic was basically a spin-out of OpenAI, and they felt that Sam and the company leadership weren't taking their point of view seriously enough.
It was the most woke portion of OpenAI.
Yeah, we're still manning for a second.
So they see the power of it.
They're the ones who are concerned about safety.
And they care the most.
And therefore, they're in the best position to do that.
Now, I think the issue is just you can see how this can lead to red capture, right?
