If we can't make a time machine to go backwards, can we at least pause time? The future absolutely fucking sucks, let's just avoid it altogether lol

Science is not yet clear. I think quantum theories say time might not even exist

Pausing time would be worse than living forever. I could not imagine a greater torture.

Seed debris in the orbit to destroy current satellites and then prevent new ones from being launched for several decades

Honestly I quite like space.

Better solution is to just kill like six people. Because that's all the AI industry is, it's like six really annoying rich guys who are having the most extravagant pissing contest in history.

Six? There's Jensen Huang, Lisa Su, Alex Karp, Peter Thiel, Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, Satya Nadella and Sundar Pichai at a minimum to start with, but there are many others too. I'm including the CEOs of Nvidia and AMD because they've been pushing AI for years to get more valuable customers than we ever were to them.

Just in case anyone needs a list.

This is our fucking insane reality:

Who wins? 6 rich guys or 8 Billion people?

Easy. 6 rich guys.

Honestly I wouldn't mind so much if someone created an AI that was actually useful.
