Just wait till self improving AI are focused on the problems of social scoring and political party empowerment / entrenchment.

I doubt the focus is OpenAI and Anthropic looking at each other. I suspect they’re racing BRIC.

Have you seen Colossus: The Forbin Project?

No but it’s on my radar now, thanks. Apparently it’s got some appreciation from the MST3K folks too.

Will you be optimizing your behaviour now to alleviate potential negative judgement from AI in the future?

The thought has crossed my mind. Not necessarily to imply sentience on the part of the AI but AI based tools will likely become a wickedly powerful tool for political manipulation and advertising.

At this point it’s inevitable that openclaw type bots will be turned loose by thieves to identify and research targets and try to exploit them for financial gain completely autonomously.
