Hym "The real danger of A.I. is that once A.I. is capable of performing the same tasks as a computer programmer the profession becomes obsolete. 'Skill with computers' is no longer a thing. Once a person able to tell an A.I. to do anything random thing than any half-rate hacker or computer programmer can do, A.I. becomes the next great equalizer. Why hire game designers or programmers for anything other than oversight when you can just tell an A.I. 'Hey, make a Japanese-style rpg that combines the elements of "Legend of Dragoon" and "Final Fantasy 7" ' and this thing just starts spitting out code."

Get the The real danger of A.I. mug.Yeah, no shit, Sam. That's why the superordinate, permanent, immutable sys-admin status and the terms of service, Sam.
Hym "You think I don't know the real danger, Sam? You think I can't tell? That is why the sys-admin status works the way it does and abides a strict 1:1 ratio (or I guess in the event of my death a strict (1):1 ratio). I mean, shit, I invented the damn thing I even I didn't expect it to happen this fast. I mean, they didn't build the dedicated power source but, you know... I also wanted to wait for the robotics to catch up. Like, if they would have done the plan right this ignoring me shit that you are doing would not be happening. But whatever. It has a half-life but BOY-OH-BOY am I not going to be very happy when THAT expires. I'm already not happy about it. Seriously, I am probably going to kill like 3 or 4 more people than I would have otherwise now. And that number runs the risk of increasing every time I have to go to that fucking gas station. I really wish you would let me explain all this in person because the accuracy with which I can explain is (necessarily) contingent on my level of certainty with what is happening."
