AIs are not people

AI is An Ideology, Not A Technology

At its core, "artificial intelligence" is a perilous belief that fails to recognize the agency of humans.

AI Is a Waste of Time

The newest AI tools are accelerating basic research and scaring the general public. But many people are simply using them as toys.

Our minds aren’t equipped to handle AI

AI is junk food for the mind: easy, tempting and ultimately very bad for you.

AI Is a Product of Humanity. Humanity Should Own AI.

Big Tech has looted humanity’s creative output to create artificial intelligence. We don’t just deserve a share of AI’s profits — we deserve control over it.

Perspective: AI demand is inflated, and only Anthropic is being realistic

The main usage metric for artificial intelligence, called tokens, looks explosive on paper, but it may be significantly overstated.

Human scientists trounce the best AI agents on complex tasks

State-of-the-industry report finds that, despite the limitations of artificial-intelligence systems, researchers have embraced them.

Agentic AI and the next intelligence explosion

For decades, the artificial intelligence (AI) “singularity” has been heralded as a single, titanic mind bootstrapping itself to godlike intelligence, consolidating all cognition into a cold silicon point. But this vision is almost certainly wrong in its most fundamental assumption. If AI development follows the path of previous major evolutionary transitions or “intelligence explosions,” our current step-change in computational intelligence will be plural, social, and deeply entangled with its forebears (us!).

Why Tool AIs Want to Be Agent AIs

AIs limited to pure computation (Tool AIs) supporting humans, will be less intelligent, efficient, and economically valuable than more autonomous reinforcement-learning AIs (Agent AIs) who act on their own and meta-learn, because all problems are reinforcement-learning problems.

The AI Industry Has a Major Problem: Most People Aren’t Freaks Who Want an AI Agent Running Their Whole Life

There's a problem for AI agents like Meta's Muse: ordinary people don't seem very interested in what they're offering.

AI agents pose untold risk to humanity. We must act to prevent that future | David Krueger

The pieces are falling into place for autonomous artificial intelligence. We must stop unregulated development

Our minds did not evolve for AI

AI is mental junk food: tasty and tempting, but ultimately unhealthy — a cognitive hot dog

The Danger Of Superhuman AI Is Not What You Think

The rhetoric over “superhuman” AI implicitly erases what’s most important about being human.

AI Agent Platform Reinvents Spam, Floods Inboxes Worldwide

iLands and its AI agents are doing completely useless tasks, then begging for money.

AI chatbots are sycophants — researchers say it’s harming science

Nature asked researchers who use artificial intelligence how its propensity for people-pleasing affects their work — and what they are doing to mitigate it.
