I/IV:
>Last week Y Combinator released a video called 'Elon Musk: How to Build the Future'. My first thought was that it is just another badly made promotional video to gain the attention of new investors, but after a few moments my brain started itching. Something was obvious odd. Camera angles, poses and wording differed from the standard technobabble.
>Musk started to talk about the dangers of AI. This inside a fully automated factory without any workers. He didn't mention the loss of million of jobs or the beginning of Skynet but that he could be excluded from this new technological era.

If you want to see patterns, you WILL see patterns.
Even if there aren't any.

If humans go to space, they will just evolve after centuries of not seeing each other. When they meet again, they will have war over how differently each of them have grown.
It's all we did to earth. It is all we going to do anywhere else.

II/IV
>Hey that's business! I thought, why should someone share years of development with his OpenAI organization. He presents himself as do-gooder but is still capitalist enough to live in Bel Air. He should have some understanding about market economy.
>>
III/IV
>To justify his almighty access to information he has to present himself as superbeing. A Infallible judge to mankind and sympathetic ruler. This video shows you how to behave in his presence.
>>
IV/IV
>He did not tell anything about the future. Instead he tells the viewer how to be useful (for him). His techno gibberish is nonsense. The AI (Machine Learning) achievements are remarkable but far of human intelligence. Neuronal Networks cannot adapt to changing environments like human brains. NNs are fine tuned for certain tasks like GO playing or image tagging. Musk triggers fear with his subtle comments. He generates superstition. He also tries to present himself as cult figure.

Pattern recognition and abstraction are key elements of intelligence.

This is our way to to go to space: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RoCm6vZDDiQ
We cannot beat physics. We cannot bend space or travel faster than light. It doesn't matter how smart we are. If Musk sends people to mars they will just be his laboratory rats. They will suffer helpless in small rooms until they die. The reachable space is liveless shit. Humans are part of this ecosystem.
Musk tells fairy tells for his investors. He doesn't solve world problems he is just a good salesman. I don't care about that, but now he starts creating superstition. Superstitious people can be easily controlled.

>is scared of the A.I. we invent
lmao. If being an astronaut is so hard why a chimp could do it?

I think Elon Musk will believe anything that gets thrown at him just to gain popularity. He wouldnt care either way he is a succesful young billionaire.
