When reaching that conclusion, the State Department uses the work of many, many talented policy experts who have many, many years of experience at the ready. Who the gently caress are you, Michael Ramirez?

 Imgur made it so you can view your entire archive of uploaded images, not just the first four pages. Of the examples of bad Obama caricatures, don't forget Ogrebama:  I don't have the original cartoon, he looks horrifying and is holding a battery cell so I put him in Silent Hill.

SporkOfTruth posted:How did you not flip out over the insane yet still-taken-seriously rantings of Kurzweil or 99% of the commercial robotics industry then? The people privately funding this kind of work are taken by the idea of a benevolent Skynet. Yeah a guy who predicts things with far better accuracy than chance would allow is clearly insane, and the people reflexively assuming a major motion picture has an accurate prediction of how AI would turn out are the sensible ones.  Oh gently caress off Times, the Church is just about the only major force in the UK still adhering to such radical notions as "the poor don't deserve to starve and workers do deserve a living wage" and "sufficient funding for disabled and elderly care is essential" and "don't carve up the NHS and sell it to your mates, Dave", they're hardly demanding an Inquisition or a return of the Church's temporal loving powers.

It's not the enormous malevolent AI that'll gently caress us, it's the lack of testing that the EMAI will receive before it's shipped.

If an evil AI fucks us it will just be us loving us, since it's something we made. Otherizing evil AIs like that just dodges the issue.

"Well they decided to go with the cheaper models from that Chinese company. If it overheats, maybe some of the circuitry will weld, who the hell cares?" "The loving thing was never designed to have to be turned off! God only knows what'll happen if we have to shut the loving thing down every two days." "We could just replace the fans while it's still on." "They're the sizes of loving buses and they run the air for the whole complex too. We put the drat thing three miles underground, billions in construction." "I knew we should've built it in Switzerland like the collider. Or the Arctic. Keep the thing nice and cold for free." "Again with the collider...we built this fucker in two years! Only two! Ten years for a loving giant railgun, two for a god machine." "Well it kinda shows, doesn't it? Hell, the CEO still wants the thing painted navy blue and nobody's been able to talk him out of that." Later when it enslaves the world, the first thing it does is have its human slaves paint it periwinkle, not navy.
