npub1hykucplphuhelaxutcw4jw3vuu7gcg42czhqmk7jhchs8vdga4fsj73p33 (npub1hyk…3p33) I would argue that they have *already* turned AI into a Paperclip Maximizer.
Power-hungry and water-thirsty AI data centres are being built in a world that's in the middle of a climate crisis. Google is planning one in Uruguay, where potable water has been so scarce that salt water is being mixed in the tap water. And all that so we can generate corporate word salad and phishing scams at the touch of a button.
How is that *not* Paperclip Maximization?
