It doesn't have it's own priorities. When you see these experiments and things people do, they are using prompts to tell the AI to act that way. It's like - you are Hitler, tell me what you would do. And then the headline is "AI wants to kill 6 million Jews".

Hauser’s Law Tax receipts will be between 20-25% of GDP Calculate our deficit spending, multiple by 4-5 and see how much our GDP has to grow. Assuming we're at $2T this year, that means to break even we need our GDP to get $8-10T larger. Our current GDP is about $32.5T

Historically, the way to accomplish that is to lay waste to a continent and then charge them to rebuild it.

I knew I’d regret this one. ..Down 17% this month.
