This is so obviously untrue that it’s actually amazing to see someone say it.
It’s replicated each time there’s a child made.
My Dearest Sinophobes:
Your knee-jerk downvoting of anything that features any hint of Chinese content doesn’t hurt my feelings. It just makes me point an laugh, Nelson Muntz style as you demonstrate time and again just how weak American snowflake culture really is.

What, precisely, do you think a brain is?
Yeah, I had to go feeling around under the couch to find my eyes after rolling them so hard they popped out of my head.
The word “we” is doing heavy lifting there.
Like hundreds of millions of people use it every day ??

It’s adorable that you think the USA has “oversight” over its megacorporations.
I hated Donald Trump in the '80s already. I thought he was a dishonest blowhard and was amazed that anybody believed anything that came out of his mouth.
I hated Elon Musk from pretty much the moment he showed up as the “darling awkward little geek bro”. He always struck me as inauthentic and a little bit stupid. (I was wrong on that last point, mind. He’s a lot stupid.)
…
I don’t even know where to begin to unpack this.
I guess I’ll start with the “nefarious shit”. Nefarious shit like taking periodic snapshots of your screen (against your will) to feed an AI? That kind of nefarious shit?
The only problem there is that you then have Linux running which is one of the most actively user-hostile things you can run.
And this is in a world where every major software vendor is turning their software against you. It’s still less hostile a user experience than Linux.
I trust Huawei a fuckton more than I’d trust Google or Apple or Microsoft or …
And by the time I’m in the market for another phone/PC it won’t be just Huawei making HarmonyOS phones/PCs.
The fact, however, that the authors think the threat is superintelligent tells me that they’re actually the “fear-hyper” crowd of AI enthusiasts. They’re the crowd using fear of TEH SINGGOOLARITTEE to sell people on the idea that degenerative AI is “close to being real intelligence”.
And it’s not.
And it never will be.
Which makes the rest of the article just scrap heap material now.
I’ll be adding this to the presentation.
Imagine the power of Joseph Goebbels’ propaganda machine, but with superintelligence behind the wheel and zero friction. That’s where we’re heading.
And with two sentences the entire article is rendered a joke.
Really? You literally posted something against the rules of a community and you’re using that as your excuse?! “CO2 spreads outside of the USA!”
My next phone (probably in another two years) will likely be running HarmonyOS. My next PC (even farther off) is also likely to be running HarmonyOS.
Or the original poster was going by what is commonly referred to as AI today and not the multi-generational tree of technologies that fall under the academic definition of AI.
Register is a thing.
You know, I’ve seen many examples of “Expert Blindness” before, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a single example that so perfectly encapsulates it.
Bravo! Mind if I use this message in our weekly messaging get-together at work?
AI is the new Crypto. If you are vaguely associated with it, I assume there’s something criminal going on
Nothing to add here. I just like this so much that I want it duplicated.
The problem with Searle’s Chinese Room is that he’s basically describing how the brain works. NOWHERE in the brain is there a cell (or even a group of cells) that defines “Chinese Language”. The “Chinese Language” encoding is spread out over an absolutely mind-numbing collection of cells and connections that individually each fire off on some (relatively) simple rules. No individual cell “knows” Chinese. They “know” voltage levels, chemical concentrations, and when to fire along which connection based on these.
So if we take Searle at face value … we don’t think either.
