To all the AI apologists :
« I’m officially done with takes on AI beginning “Ethical concerns aside…”.
No! Stop right there.
Ethical concerns front and center. First thing. Let’s get this out of the way and then see if thre is anything left worth talking about.
Ethics is the formalisation of how we are treating one another as human beings and how we relate to the world around us.
It is impossible to put ethics aside.
What you mean is “I don’t want to apologise for my greed and selfishness.”
Say that first. »

Ethical concerns aside. Human impacts aside. Cultural value, future generations, environmental decay aside. Aside, you who seek value in truth, in human connection. Aside, all who stand in the way.
Dude we only need a few small nuclear reactors to power this new chatbot though
So what you are saying is that you are incapable of thinking in hypotheticals?
