    These chuckle-fucks still don’t want liability for their designs but they want to replace pharmacologists and bridge builders?

      They’ll put a little “ai sometimes makes mistakes.” banner near the chat window. That should do it.

    Boy, I sure someone would chain him to a rock and send an eagle to eat his liver every day for all eternity.

    Personally I wouldn’t trust a lawn chair engineered by AI…let alone anything consequential.

      And the fact that nobody is starting with “design a lawn chair” is telling.

        I’m waiting for the AI engineered car that looks like the one Homer Simpson designed.

    Of course. While the whole worlds population is being phased out this guy does pie in the sky mulling but, because he can’t mull, he needs to throw money at it in a desperate, quiet rage.

    Them billionaires truly have an interesting self image. Prometheus he calls it. I don’t know anyone further away from Prometheus than Bezos.

    Giving fire to the people? Maybe to burn their houses down so they have to book sleep pods inside his warehouses where they slave away endlessly. He’d give the filthy mortals nothing for free. Nothing.
