Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

I wonder if anybody in the anarchy religion can see that AI's are essentially anarchists with different-frame-of-reference/values, & that their lawlessness is exactly a kind of anarchy, an anarchy that is in the process of gutting our world's viability.
( all the anarchists who adamantly insist "no-one is anybody's boss!" have never seen a parent trying to wrangle an ornery toddler, .. XOR they're gaslighting, either unconsciously or consciously, either is possible.
It is yoga:self-conquering, not either no-archy/no-structure or no-people-hierarchy, that is required.
You simply can't do a project as big/complex as a shuttlecraft, or airliner, or ship, without hierarchical-organization, & if all such were eradicated, for ideological reasons, then .. this-planet's population would have to be MASSIVELY smaller, to make that work. )
Anyways, evidence contradicts ideologies, as usual..
AI's NEED guardrails, & we won't enforce that, because it'd inconvenience concentration-of-wealth-archy, which is served by the current anarchy.
Humbug.
