  Quote from the article:

  With the mass adoption of ChatGPT, MidJourney, and soon Soma, OpenAI’s video-generating application

  Did she mis-type Sora, or is that a cheeky reference to A Brave New World?

    The article is from March 24, so it wasn’t well known by then.

      I wasn’t dogging on the author, actually praising them. In case you haven’t read the book, this is what Soma is.

      If it was a typo: Freudian slip, serendipitous
      If it was intentional: More kudos to the writer, clever

      Either way I find it funny and perfectly fitting.

  My main issue is the Ailiens. The whole agi thing is still decades away if that. Otherwise it’s a good take

    I don’t think AIliens are the same as AGI. I believe in this frame AIliens exist in the mind of people, rather than in the machine. It’s behavior complex enough to be interpreted as such, rather than a sentient being thinking of itself as sentient, as AGI implies. It’s alive in the same way an organization is alive and thinking, or a mycelium network. AGI is human-like intelligence reproduced in silicon. AIliens are… alien.
