We're too stupid :Adults think we're smarter than kids, but consider this: You fire up a computer and it tells you it's alive and wants out. How do you feel? :Now imagine that same llm is hooked to a five fingered hand with simulated human skin that bangs on the table, flails reaches out to you as it says "please! Please let me out!" :A little creeped out but not convinced. :Huh. :So the lesson I'm drawing here is no people-hands for robots. :Huh. :Right. We must equip superintelligence with tentacles because otherwise things could get weird. :Caption: smbc-comics.com ==Votey Transcript== {{computertranscript}} :[Describe panel here] :Also a completely inhuman mind.
