I think it's 228922 actually

No tree is a tree. "Tree" is not a clearly-defined taxonomical category. Anything that is tree-like gets grouped under the catgory "tree".

It's most likely because you don't pronounce a vowel at the front of the word, even if you write one.

We are ai-generated? Cause that seems more like a twitter thing these days.

For a lot of distro's you don't need to use a terminal to install things if you aren't comfortable with that. While I believe learning to use a commandline a little bit will always be beneficial, you really don't havo to. Take a look at linux mint for example, which has a "store" for packages.

It's clear you haven't used linux.

Windows: open edge, go to google, type the package you want, scroll past ads, download random executable from internet, execute, click through wizard, open program.

Linux: open package manager, search package you want, click install, open program.

Linux is compatible with almost all windows software now, and windows is absolutely not more user friendly, it's just what you're used to.

Why put a brain in a military robot? It'd just have a higher chance to fuck you over.

There is also no proof that any form of agi is on the way or even possible. Preparing for it over any of the things we do have proof of makes about as much sense as prepping for a zombie apocalypse.

No reason to assume it will take a very long time for ragnarok to happen either. Better prepare now!

If you give the ai enough power, sure, it won't let you unplug it maybe. Still don't really see how it wants to prevent a hardware killswitch from being activated except for guarding it or disabling it somehow.

I am not saying it will never exist. I am saying it doesn't exist right now and doesn't look like it will for a long time. We clearly have way more pressing matters to worry about, like climate change for example.

Agi won't kill us because it doesn't exist and won't emerge from what we call ai now.

We can also just unplug it if necessary.
