    Let me put a chip in my brain that will run software developed by the lowest paid intern using claude 7. I dont trust big corp to update my phone and car, there is zero chance i trust them with my brain.

    Over my dead body.

    Also, this is laughable:

    We’re on the cusp of the next major transition, the merger of humans and AI.

    These guys don’t even have true AI yet, just a text predictor on steroids that frequently hallucinates and gets things wrong.

      The cope is really deep in the tech sector. Way too many imbeciles who think they’re geniuses and too much VC to throw around.

      AI is incredible if you ask it about stuff you’re not an expert on. Once you ask it those things you already have expert level knowledge on, especially nuanced questions, you’ll start to see the issues. It won’t be every question it gets wrong, but it’s often enough to be an issue.

    They can’t even supply chips for computers or phones at this point…they think they can introduce an entirely new product type (which has yet to have much success, either) while failing with the datacenter LLM shit?

    They WANT that, don’t they. Framing like that makes me hate them even more…

    The incredible, sci-fi point-&-click adventure game Technobabylon is about people who chose to install such “wetware” into their brains and people, like the protagonist, who refused it. It’s good stuff.

    AI CEO D. Scott Phoenix laid out a vision of a world in which the chipped enjoy so many advantages of the unchipped that you’ll be forced to comply.

    I won’t even verify my age online. He can shove my advantageous chip right up his ass.

    I’m reminded of the guy I saw who couldn’t get out of the courthouse parking garage because he didn’t have a smartphone to pay for the parking.

    I’d still rather break a gate than get an implant.

      If it happens regularly, you can always keep a battery-powered reciprocating saw in your car to make it easier. Heck, that’s probably faster than the app!

    I believe David Icke predicted this way back in the late 80’s, early 90’s. Who would have thought that fruitcake would be right about something?

    The fuck I will. Unless they change the definition of ‘give in’ to ‘die’ then they don’t know shit. I don’t want them in my PHONE, let alone my FUCKING HEAD. I think about them too much as is.

      ‘Die’ when you are locked out of society because everything will need brainchips as a key, and you starve if you can’t afford brainmoney transactions
