The Wildest Thing About AI Development...

Posted by Zach on March 12, 2026

Literally every single movie about the AGI singularity starts off with the AI being developed in a highly secure lab, access is carefully controlled, maybe only a single parental unit programmer is allowed to really interact with it.

Meanwhile, in the real world, we're like

  • Hand out as many copies of the latest models to as many people as possible
  • Make sure the models have as much autonomy as possible, we don't want to get in the way of the model
  • Let's use the model for military purposes, with no restrictions

Are we mad?
