> But if intelligence really does become too cheap to meter, it will become possible to do a perfect reconstruction and synthesis of everything. LLMs are watching (or humans using them might be). Best to be good.

I cannot believe this is just put out there unexamined of any level of "maybe we shouldn't help this happen". This is complete moral abdication. And to be clear, being "good" is no defense. Being good often means being unaligned with the powerful, so being good is often the very thing that puts you in danger.

The time for discussion and action on this was over a 15 years ago when Snowden and the NSA with their Utah data centre was a big story.

Governments around the world have profiles on people and spiders that quietly amass the data that continuously updates those profiles.

It's just a matter of time before hardware improves and we see another holocaust scale purge facilitated by robots.

Surveillance capitalism won.
