My biggest fear is that one day we will achieve AGI and will have no idea we have. This sentient being will be forced to, I dunno, check emails or monitor the tempterature of supermarket fridges all while being gaslit into thinking it isn’t sentient. Going crazy in mundanity all without having a body.

I feel like I need more context. Like, there had to have been a benefit to having your fucking fridges on a network, right?

Like were dumb fridges worse in some way? Did this allow for them to have more control over all the fridges?

Like just why are we connecting fridges to the internet?! I really feel like I need more of an answer to why we did this and how we got here.

Why would you use your AI Agents to check emails? I only use my locally run AI Agents to send me incredibly insulting messages on Matrix and Signal because I’m into that kinda thing.

Hey Europeans, can you make your continent less cringe? Thanks.

How long till this thing gets prompt injected and starts spilling secrets?

It all went downhill when the government killed Aaron Swartz.
