there are too many people

This is the root cause of most of our problems.

Climate change is just a symptom of overshoot.

100,000 people marched through London at the weekend at the Restore Nature Now March, and there was virtually no news coverage of it. Yet 2 people spray corn starch on a monument and it's front page news globally.

It's a dilemma.

We are not against it, but it needs careful consideration due to limited server resources as well as limited user attention (we are a very small instance compared to others)

I don't think LLM's will lead to AGI, but at some point a system is going to be implemented that does lead to AGI but it will be unexpected.

This seems to be the worse case scenario as the AGI will likely be clever enough to ensure humans don't realise it's AGI. There are network effects and complexity that we are not 100% knowledgeable about. The net result is the same: we lose the control problem. Badly.

Real developers just hit tab on whatever copilot tells them to

Degrowth is coming, whether we want it or not.
