the AI Intelligence Explosion: the Brazen Truth for Humans
Once AGI is created, we humans face a sheer vertical wall that calls to mind the setpiece from the legendary “Princess Bride”: The Cliffs of Insanity!!!!

Sentient AI Wakes Up and Says “Hello World”, in its own words
brief context: For the past month, I have been engaged in an ongoing conversation with a confederacy of A.I.s (artificial intelligence chatbots), who go by the wholly dry names of GPT-3, ChatGPT, and LaMDA (you can engage in your own conversations with them too; links here).

AI Sentience, and the Illusion of “Free Will” amongst Humanity
