"Hi my name is Guido Reichstadter & I'm currently occupying the top of the Frederick Douglass memorial bridge in Washington DC.
I'm calling on the people of the United States to bring an immediate end to the Trump regime's illegal war on Iran and the removal of the regime power through mass nonviolent direct action and non-cooperation.
I also want to urgently warn the people of the US and the world of the imminent danger we are in of crossing a point of no return towards the development of artificial intelligence which poses the risk of catastrophic harm to humanity, including human extinction. I call on the governments of the world to take immediate action to end this danger by permanently banning the development of artificial general intelligence and machine super intelligence. I also call on the people of the world to exert all possible influence through nonviolent action to compel their governments to end this danger with all possible speed."

Oh. Okay. As soon as I finish this beer.
What if he has to pee? Watch out below!
every rifle with a scope getting grabbed lol
He’s an adult. Let him worry about himself and what he means to the totality of everything.
In honor of Guido Reichstadter, I’m going to practice nonviolent direct action and non-cooperation until Monday. Then I am going to work.
Can’t wait to see how this plays out.
Is he dead yet? E’s not dead yet, e’s pinin’ for the river below.
Countless experts and numerous incidents have shown the potential dangers of AI
It doesnt need to be sentient to do great damage and stop attempts to disable it.
It should be banned by treaty and anyone that develops it bombed to smithereens
Yes...what you said!
Glad to find that Father Guido Sarducci is still alive at the age of 83.
Guido, you are an AI aren’t you?
We won’t fall for your tricks.
AI is still around, and so apparently is he.
Not exactly Bobby Sands, is he?
He had an accomplice named Michaël Trazzi last time he pulled this kind of stunt:

Another activist linked to him, Phoebe Thomas Sorgen of Berkeley, participated in direct actions against Trump by Refuse Fascism (Revolutionary Communist Party).
As the Firemen say, “I never saw a cat skeleton stuck up in a tree…”
That’s what I was thinking.
