Everyone's like, "It's not that impressive. It's not general AI." Yeah, that's the scary part to me. A general AI could be told, "btw don't kill humans" and it would understand those instructions and understand what a human is.

The current way of doing things is just digital guided evolution, in a nutshell. Way more likely to create the equivalent of a bacteria than the equivalent of a human. And it's not being treated with the proper care because, after all, it's just a language model and not general AI.
