That's "Fronkensteen."

"My predition of my creation is, in the next 10 years, it might actually destroy the humanity and lay waste to this planet we called home."

"So why do you build it?"

"We do what we must, because we can. Have you seen the human mantis hybrid we created? Magnificent creature."

Currently watching Fringe - Dr Bishop is a perfect example of the regretful Frankenstein, and the show continuously goes out of its way to explain to you, dear watcher, why even his atrocities were ultimately for the good of all mankind. It makes me wanna puke, but not really, because I never had any expectations. This is good entertainment. He's also a really nice variation on the mad scientist trope.

Anyhow, "the ends justify the means" is such a prevalent thought pattern in the American Public's Mind, which people advocating AI know how to play like a fiddle.

But the fact that Amodei couldn't even bring that narrative across without anybody except SNL noticing, is deeply worrying.

"The end justifies the means, but the end is till horrifying"

AI people really are smoothbrained af.

Personally I think the west needs Frankenstein technology, because China is already working on theirs. We can't let our dead fall behind! They need to hussle if they're going to afford nice pine boxes.
