The year is 2025. AI is killing the planet, poisoning the air and people's minds. Greedy corporations are bent on profit and power. An unlikely hero is chosen to travel back to 1964 to stop Joseph Weizenbaum from creating the prototype of this nightmare. Coming this Christmas: Terminator: ELIZA
@niedermeyer.online You might find this funny haha
It's not the scientific advancement, imo, it's the weak-minded, unstable, drug addicted billionaires who weaponized it, who's killing the planet. Maybe bc they want to make more money & they don't care who or what dies in the process of them making more money. Which is very bad for all of humanity.
Just wait until data centers are up and running. They will damage the environment and accelerate climate change at speeds never seen.
Tech overlords know exactly how dangerous their data centers are They’ve been sneaking into marginalized and depressed communities to build create and run their data center infrastructure on residential properties without a shred of a conscience about the damage done to the residents and environment
Next installment: hopping around increasing fucked up versions of the past killing everyone who put the IF and PRINT operators in their programming language.
And yes I know today's AI clusterfuck is not Joseph Weizenbaum's fault, in fact he tried to warn us. bsky.app/profile/fain...
What makes you say "you must be destroyed for the good of humanity"?
weizenbaum isn’t the one to stop!
Oh. Didn't know they had techbros back then.
The Terminator Sisters?
Also, I have the original ELIZA code and occasionally spin it up in an emulator to watch it crash because it runs out of memory if I give it a little, or get bored of me if I give it a lot. I don’t think that says good things about my own mental health, but I’m still here so it’s your problem.
And in a few centuries, in spaaaaaace, someone is going to have a very heated debate with the USS Enterprise. Look, Eddie, if you don’t open that hatch RIGHT FOOKIN NOW I’m going to take an axe to your CPU. Yeah? That ok?
