United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
I have questions...
What if the rogue AIs mocked out genitals mercilessly before killing us? I think that would be worse.
And how many stages? Is anyone keeping an eye on developments? Because they have drones hunting and killing humans now. Robot dogs with guns. Who get to pull the plug on research that is too risky?
It's not rogue AI, it's dumb prediction engines getting sold as intelligence.
Guessing once a cover-up gets exposed where AI systems ended up causing friendly fire or a mass casualty from hitting an unknown edge case.
We are still a long way from any sort of AGI from dystopian science fiction. But "AI" can still be very unintelligent but still be potentially very dangerous, and the sort hyperbolic doom mongering that keeps coming up in this discussions is distracting from that.
