Strypey on Nostr: All of which helps to explain why people like Melon Husk are happy to emit any amount ...
All of which helps to explain why people like Melon Husk are happy to emit any amount of carbon in pursuit of developing "AI". Because like the characters in Ben Elton novels like Stark and This Other Eden, they're not trying to save the human race and the biosphere we depend on. They're trying to survive it.
They are the pyramid builders of our time. Obscenely powerful people, who can think of nothing better to do with their power than trying to make themselves immortal.
