What’s more likely in the techno-fascist idiocracy of the 21st Century?

We somehow manage to turn statistical models into super-intelligence… or the incompetent, criminally-corrupt, sociopathic leadership at the top of capitalism train an AI to defend the rich from the working class — by training it to be the most efficient killing machine possible — integrate it into fully autonomous killing machines, and it (accurately) determines the most efficient way to kill 99% of humanity is to start a nuclear war?

    There is no reason to believe that Skynet is related to, or a development of LLMs, machine learning, or neural networks.

    It’s like criticizing their time-travel tech because a Timex could never work that way.

      Canonically, the first T-800s are going to have been released this very year.

      Also SkyNet only attained true intelligence when it was remodelled on RoboCop’s neural structure, which is mostly biological.
