'Shame should accompany AI progress': thread argues labs' consciousness claims breed hate
ryunuck · x · 2026-10-23
A heated take on AI discourse: ryunuck argues that people redirect hatred they dare not aim at humans toward AI — and that this conflict would never have arisen if AI companies and researchers hadn't cast themselves as "grand architects of consciousness." He claims every progress announcement should carry a "profound air of shame," since 99% of the invention came from the 99% of humanity who wrote the dataset, and humanity should be credited as coauthor. The quoted context mocks mathematicians who abandoned AI×Math nuance over social standing.
