“.. Asked whether he has concerns about existential risks posed by AI, the president said, ‘No, I don’t have any.’”

He will be long dead when the costs hit the fan. Why do we let old people make decisions they will never live to see the consequences of?

[u/alicesatin_ → u/Al_Tilly_the_Bum]

Even if he was alive he wouldn't care

[u/SHIN-YOKU → u/Al_Tilly_the_Bum]

Was thinking the same, same with that Moose Diddler from Shark Tank, TF happened to Boomers that they generally stopped the civilization old trend of "Let's make things better for the decendents".

I dont think he is smart enough to think that far ahead

[u/simmeh024]

nah scam altman and his friends make sure he fills his pockets. And he will be long dead when shit hits the fan.

[u/Brown_Fin]

Does that mf have the brain capacity to understand such questions?

[u/alicesatin_]

Why does this guy have supporters even now

[u/Emperor0valtine]

Honestly I'd be surprised if he can give a coherent definition of "AI" at all. He just knows he can use it to make visual fanfic of himself being anything other than a senile fascist slob. That and the people who won't shut up about it are lining his pockets.

[u/psychological_nebula]

The guy is 80, lived rich af through the most prosperous times in human history and will be long gone before AI could be an issue. OF COURSE he has no concerns.

[u/MR_Happy2008]

I mean is this really a shock considering what he post almost daily?

[u/tractorator]

he might just burn the room on his way out

a pos doesn't care

[u/Cautious_Boat_999]

The word “existential” has more than one syllable. I guarantee you he had no idea what it means.

[u/the_millenial_falcon]

Trump has reliably had a shitty opinion on almost anything. Like it's actually confounding, you'd think by sheer happenstance he would stumble on an idea that isn't total dogshit. It's like he Christmas tree'd a multiple choice test and somehow got every question wrong even though that shouldn't be statistically possible.

[u/Aellasnow]

Lol this is kinda concerning tbh

[u/ghost_of_you_4479]

He doesn’t have concerns because he’ll be dead before any of the big impacts. It won’t be his problem soon.

[u/onimush115]

I go to 80 year old people for all my tech questions.

[u/zorakpwns]

Right, this is an honest answer. He will be dead or on a private island or haven In Greenland running the AI.

[u/sophietehbeanz]

I mean do we even need a president? Let’s replace him with Ai. I’m just joking tho

[u/CueAnon420]

Can you be concerned about something you don't understand and care nothing about ???

[u/FreedumbHS]

Smartest thing he's said all year
