Found another ‘interesting’ website: aidoomsdaycountdown.com

  • Clearly written by someone who spends more time chatting with chatbots than talking to actual people. The bulk of the argument is that he asked the chatbots when AI was gonna foom and they told him “In a few years I guess my man”. The “reading progress” widget bugged out for me and got stuck at 92%, it also links to a page that doesn’t exist. Still curious? We’ve answered 50+ more questions. […] Showing 22 of 22 questions I was promised 50+ FAQ questions :( Anyway I stumbled across the arbitration clause so I’d better stop looking at the website in case I ever have to sue this guy for any reason!

    Countdowns given to the second, but which only differ by the number of days. How nice of the AGIs to all wait until 00:00:00 UTC!

    What on Earth do these percentages mean? I scrolled all the way to the bottom and I am none the wiser. No obvious hints in the DOM either. Maybe their chatbot told them it sums to 100%?

    The website puts expert consensus at 78% but does not disclose who those experts are. I have a PhD in computer science and natural language processing and I think this is horse shit. As do most of my peers and my PhD supervisor/prof who I still talk to. I don’t remember being asked and pretty sure my network weren’t either.
