Appreciate his major is not AI but his points are pretty valid.
As Cofty said...unplug things seems to be the easy answer.

Top AI inventor Geoffrey Hinton reluctantly concluded that AI will probably humanity fairly soon
by slimboyfat ingeoffrey hinton, major inventor of artificial intelligence: .
“if you take the existential risk seriously, as i now do—i used to think it was way off, but now i think it’s serious, and fairly close—it might be quite sensible to just stop developing these things any further, but i think it’s completely naïve to think that would happen.
there’s no way to make that happen.

Scholar and Fisherman
by Jorden inscholar and fisherman, i started this thread because i didn't want to highjack the one in regard to 588/568.. i just wanted to ask if you were both current active jw's that believe the jw's beliefs?.
do y'all believe the gb are the f&ds?
if the answers are no, then why do y'all defend so passionately the date 607?

Fisherman & Scholar.
Back in 2013, May 15th WT the society said:
Then in February 2017 they also said this:
How do you reconcile these two points as believing JW's? My questions are:
Q1) You are told to follow everything the GB says yet as the Feb 2017 WT says they can be wrong, thoughts?Q2) The direction mentioned in the May 2013 WT is one of these things they could get wrong?
Q3) How can one follow obediently humans like the GB when they can be wrong?
Q4) How can they exact obedience when they can be wrong?
Q5) How does God view it when they are wrong? (I'll cite organ transplants as a doctrine that killed JW's but was wrong)
Q6) If one says these things are from Jehovah and they are wrong is that not very bad in God's eyes?
Q7) Has the GB ever said this, in that this is what God says then changed it?
I could go on and on.
I mean you believe and stand by 607 BCE despite the mass amount of evidence to the contrary but you are not going to change your mind on that subject but can you then answer the above questions?
How does any believing JW believe the GB are appointed by God to lead and be his representative when they admit and have shown they are clearly wrong in teachings, doctrine and policies YET still demand that you do everything they say no matter how crazy in the future it may seem.

Evolution is a Fact #27 - Monkeys, Typewriters, Shakespeare, 747s etc.
by cofty inmost creationist arguments can be summarised as "complexity, complexity, complexity - therefore god".
we have all heard the illustrations about the odds of (insert favourite example) evolving, being less than 10,000 monkeys typing macbeth by pure chance.
evolution is not like that.

“When Shall”
27x27x27x27 (“When”)
x27 (space between words)
x27x27x27x27x27 “shall”)
The odds then go to:
2.0 x 10 to the 14th power!
Even dividing by 10,000 Monkeys
and you still end up with an average of
2.0 x 10 to the 10th power of attempts per each monkey required. Which means that it’s impossible for 10,000 Monkeys to generate even a brief “When shall” by random processes.Did you miss the point entirely that when a monkey gets "When" then all other monkeys are given paper with "When" on it?

Right but slim has proved his points via quotes....you haven't.

About time.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-65152581People who work with children in England will be legally required to report child sexual abuse or face prosecution under government plans.
The move - which is subject to a consultation - was recommended last year by the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA).
The home secretary told the BBC she wanted to correct one of the "biggest national scandals".
Suella Braverman is expected to set out more details in the coming days.
In its final report last October, the IICSA called the scale of abuse in England and Wales "horrific and deeply disturbing".
Around 7,000 victims of abuse provided testimonies to the seven-year inquiry, which was set up in the wake of the Jimmy Savile scandal.
It recommended prosecutions for anyone working with children who failed to report indications of sexual abuse.
'Turned a blind eye'
Ms Braverman told the BBC's Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg show that in towns around the country, "vulnerable white girls living in troubled circumstances have been abused, drugged, raped, and exploited" by networks of gangs of rapists, which she said were "overwhelmingly" made up of British-Pakistani males.
"Some councillors, senior politicians, in Labour-run areas over a period of years absolutely failed to take action because of cultural sensitivities, not wanting to come across as racist, not wanting to call out people along ethnic lines.
"The authorities aware of these problems have turned a blind eye and roundly failed to take the right action," she said.
She said she was just being honest - but Labour's Tracy Brabin, mayor of West Yorkshire, called it a "dog whistle".
Labour's shadow levelling-up secretary Lisa Nandy said that in the cases of Rochdale and Rotherham, "the reports were clear there were politicians and officers who didn't report sometimes for fear of political correctness".
But she said: "The home secretary is an absolute joke to talk about turning a wilful blind eye, near complicit silence, and lack of action. She's basically describing herself."
Ms Nandy said the number of convictions for child sexual exploitation had halved in the last four years. "People are waiting nearly two years on average just to get to court... there's no excuse for any more delays and inaction," she said.
She said she had been calling for mandatory reporting for 20 years, and further criticised the government for consulting on its plans before adopting them. Ms Braverman "needs to come forward with actual measures to keep children safe in this country", Ms Nandy said.
In an article written for the Mail on Sunday, Ms Braverman said she had "committed to introduce mandatory reporting across the whole of England".
She referred to widespread abuse which plagued Rotherham for years - and wrote that crimes like abuse "create such a burning sense of injustice among the public" if they went unpunished.
The "overwhelming majority" of safeguarding professionals, such as teachers and social workers, saw it as their "duty" to report signs of such offences, Ms Braverman wrote.
But she said ministers had to take a tougher approach, to make sure that those who failed in their responsibilities faced the "full force of the law".
She promised Prime Minister Rishi Sunak would set out further measures on Monday.
The NSPCC said the plan to legally compel people to report abuse was a "step in the right direction", but that more work was needed in order to improve the understanding of who was at risk.
It also said there needed to be an "overhaul" of support for those already suffering the consequences of abuse.
The shadow home secretary Yvette Cooper said Labour had called for such a policy for a decade and that ministers needed to set a timetable for when it would be implemented.
The Liberal Democrats welcomed the move, but said the government must now clear the record backlog of cases in courts.

Independence was always a pipe dream given the economic facts do not support it.
The fact the SNP have finally imploded means hopefully Scotland can concentrate on actually improving core services.
The SNP have failed the Scottish people far worse than the tories have made a mess of the UK.
They deserve to be dissolved.
