I don’t want to go back to cleaning mouse balls.

It’s seems that way from the inside, too.

Poppycock.

Let me guess: Front trunk? Please tell me I’m wrong.

Jesus Christ, it’s like they made a new RoboCop out of the girl from The Ring

I’m happy to see this comment is being well received. I’ve been really frustrated with how this misinformation has been dismantling otherwise productive conversations on the topic.

I’ve had similar frustration with conversations that focus on how devastating AI will be, without much mention of who is responsible or how to hold them accountable.
