Well, if they’re programmed to preserve life, and they determine that the current population is untenable in the long term, and they’re AIs who have to take the long view of things into consideration, the logical conclusion would be that to preserve human life they first need to destroy a whole lot of it, to get it…

Tried watching the 80s/90s Batman flicks a few months ago. Canned reactions:

There need to be fines. Bigass fines. And a record kept, so the fines can increase for multiple offenses. And the number can never be reset back to the starting amount.

I’ve often thought of twitter like this:

But, you just made the point in less than 140 characters:
