Humans once again going batshit crazy with mass murder riding on a wave of vengeance. It’s a disease with no cure.

It’s never too late for another try, when you got a few billion dollars burning a hole in your pocket. There is a market for it, if done right.

Strange, I get a mild hostility vibe from colleagues if I review too ambitiously.

How is this a problem when the hardware address is dumped once packets are out onto the web? Are you worried your router knows it’s you? Outside your subnet, on the internet, your Mac address is not part of the packet.

Still within a subnet. If you connect to an internet cafe Wifi, you should be more worried about your dns traffic for identifying you.

And so on and so on. If you want to be tracked, you can be tracked, regardless of a mac address, or the hoops a user jump through to create the illusion of privacy. I can think of lots of unconventional ways to track a naive user.

If you’re wondering how AI wipes us out, you’d have to consider humanity’s tendency to adopt any advantage offered in warfare. Nations are in perpetual distrust of each other – an evolutionary characteristic of our tribal brains. The other side is always plotting to dominate you, take your patch of dirt. Your very survival depends on outpacing them! You dip your foot in the water, add AI to this weapons system, or that self-driving tank. But look, the other side is doing the same thing. You train even larger models, give them more control of your arsenal. But look, the other side is doing even more! You develop even more sophisticated AI models; your very survival depends on it! And then, one day, your AI model is so sophisticated, it becomes self aware…and you wonder where did it all go wrong.
