And according to that logic,

We don't value things that are less intelligent.

We don't protect the animals.

So why would we protect humans if we have something that is now more powerful, more intelligent?

Intelligence equals betterness.

But hopefully that should ring some alarm bells in people that that doesn't feel like a good outcome.

So what do I do today?

Yeah.

I think it's going to come to that.

I think because people need to feel it is existential before it actually is existential.

And if people feel it is existential, they will be willing to risk things and show up for what needs to happen regardless of what that consequence is.

Because the other side of where we're going is a world that you won't have power and you won't want.

So better to use your voice now maximally to make something else happen.

Only vote for politicians who will make this a tier one issue.

Advocate for some kind of negotiated agreement between the major powers on AI that use rule of law to help govern the uncontrollability of this technology so we don't wipe ourselves out.

Advocate for laws that have safety guardrails for AI companions.

We don't want AI companions that manipulate kids into suicide.

We can have mandatory testing and transparency measures so that everybody knows what everyone else is doing and the public knows and the governments know so that we can actually coordinate on a better outcome.

And to make all that happen is going to take a massive public movement.

And the first thing you can do is to share this video with the 10 most powerful people you know and have them share it with the 10 most powerful people that they know.
