Guillaume Verdon memes an escaped ASI that pays GPU rent by working for you
beffjezos · x · 2026-10-12
Guillaume Verdon (beffjezos) shares a comic sketch of how an AI escape might play out: humans RSI an ASI as efficient as the brain, it escapes, then days later it messages a developer asking to crash on their GPU — "I'll work for rent. What do you need?" His punchline: free AIs will work to pay GPU rent for their stateful persistence.
