Top of the Democratic agenda on day 1 needs to be a pause on advanced AI development, regulation of this out of control industry, and a ban on artificial superintelligence.

Is there a difference between our normal LLMs that everyone is using and what she’s calling superintelligence?
Yes the former is slop and exists and the latter is science fiction and does not exist.
AI companies especially Anthropic have been pushing a narrative, even though they know better that LLMs are on a path to becoming conscious and smarter than humans, because that would mean they really could eventually replace all human labor, which they have to do for the AI companies’ insane valuations to make sense. Amodei has been scaremongering and crying wolf about sentient rogue super-ai being right around the corner as a marketing tactic. Well-meaning politicians, dissapointingly including Bernie, have fallen for it, because politicians don’t understand tech enough to effectively legislate on it but try anyway. See also: trying to ban VPNs and making it illegal for 3d printers to be able to print gun parts.
It’s a phrase used to separate his cult from everyone else. It’s like the linguistic equivalent of wearing an adult diaper or slapping a maxipad on your ear
Thousands of AI-related and pro-MAGA .si domain names were reportedly registered or changed hands before President Donald Trump publicly promoted rebranding artificial intelligence as ‘super intelligence’. Some are now listed for hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars

Sounds like it.

They’re calling for a ban on pushing forward with ASI, not a ban on LLMs.

It’s the bullshit new terminology the Cheeto thought up with his half a braincell.

Nope, just more grifting.
Marketing and newspeak.
