A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

They don't want somebody toppling an oligarch, you mean.
Which oligarch? I mean, yes there's definitely a degree of trusting "the right sort" there, but capitalism isn't a team sport and they're not a team. Honestly one of them might launch skynet anyway, if that's how the technology grows, but a few people are theoretically able to agree not to do something, while legions never can.
So do you think it should all be open sourced, then? And if so, are you a skeptic of "AI alignment", or even "AI safety"?
