What ever happened to that other Googler that claimed Gemini was conscious?

My read is these folks are too high on their own stash

At some point they must recognize we are in the "boy who cried wolf" tale, right? You cannot go on for years spreading FUD about how AI is so dangerous and have none of it materialize. The growth is looking a lot more tame than their "high on their own stash" anxiety is letting is on to believe

I have a hard time getting upset about AI hallucinations when I do it too :]

An earlier version of ChatGPT (2 or 3 iinh) was too dangerous to release, yet here we are several version later, and with open weights far more capable

why should we believe the fears they tell us today when the ones they told us about in prior years never happened?

		What about all the fanfare re. Cyber security / hacks? The businesses that matter are all standing fine. It’s too cringey.
