How many Tech Bros saw Colossus: The Forbin Project, & thought "AI will solve all of humanities problems."?
I never considered that THEY were the problem.

We Went to the Town Elon Musk Is Poisoning

Elon Musk’s massive xAI data center is poisoning Memphis. It's burning enough gas to power a small city, with no permits and no pollution controls.
Residents tell us they can’t breathe and they’re getting sicker.

I enjoyed reading this article about the completion of much needed #Colossus building repairs at The National Museum of Computing.

It wasn’t supposed to be a big deal, just a ho-hum announcement of something not happening. Instead the greatest salesperson of the era, whose customer obsession had made #Amazon into a #colossus…, got the greatest customer #rejection of a lifetime.
A ¼M #WashingtonPost readers canceled their subscriptions….That is ~10% of the total circulation. The speed & decisive force of the cancellations was a bit of a shock but also appropriate, said Danny Caine, author of “How to Resist Amazon & Why.”
Elon Musk says there’s a 10 to 20% chance AI goes poorly https://www.byteseu.com/521074/ #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #Colossus #ElonMusk #Nvidia #OpenAI #p #PeterDiamandis #Quartz #RCAH100PortableAudioDevice #XAI
