I wouldn’t be shocked at a working agreement with Palmer Luckey’s Anduril to offer AI-assisted god-knows-what to Anduril’s military/surveillance hardware.

Oh no! But what happened to We’re not doing it for the money but the good of humanity, and If anybody approaches AGI before us we will shut down and use all our resources to help them instead?
