    The language in the linked post is disinformation. AI does not “scheme,” but that’s the wording the post uses for its duration. “Scheming” implies competence from a person. This post is evidence of a dysfunctional piece of software failing to work properly, made by apparently increasingly incompetent developers.

    Upon looking a little closer, this is a fearmonger website devoted to overinflating claims of AI power while ignoring real-life present-day harms. They claim to be inspired by Sam Bankman-Fried’s Effective Altruism scam. They show pictures of beautiful beaches but fail to mention AI’s environmental harms. Their paranoid demands, if enacted, would calcify Big Tech’s monopoly on AI and help nobody affected by its abuses on the planet.
