hate datacenters, would support just about any anti-dc regulation
if you believe anything about the HF incident or any AI capabilities, you are a shill falling for AI marketing
I think both views are propagandized. My mental model is, propaganda hardens and narrows political beliefs, and I think on both points, the social media consensus has gone beyond what widespread sincere belief looks like.
The distilled factual version is really not too hard for ordinary people to understand. “The models are very powerful and they can’t control them.” If people are just never really getting to that, it’s not complexity, it’s some other psychological or social force. (I concede the big picture conclusion which is like “oh and it can attempt take over,” sounds way more absurd to an AIS-novice than the constituent parts.) Any propaganda researchers reading? I’d like to know WTF is going on with point #2 above.
Recently, I thought you could take something like anti-dc sentiment and attach wonkish AIS riders. I think I’m right that negative AI valence is very important, but I’m more concerned propaganda can interfere with “valence ⇒ desired action.”
On the other hand—a number of elites seem to have noticed what happened, e.g. D Ted Lieu and R Nathaniel Moran with AI Kill Switch Act.
