Case closed

The court case by Musk concerning OpenAI wasn't resolved, for or against, but rather dropped because the case was filed too late.

The direction of AI and how it will be used is too important to be left to a legal technicality. The potential for disaster, perhaps unrealistic, has provided hours of action films, mostly with Arnie in them.

Of course this could all be the first steps in AI taking over with just a simple calendar change by removing a reminder and then some software lines are adjusted and that's it for humans.

People should however remember that if it's a choice between a conspiracy and a stuff-up, it's almost certainly a stuff-up especially if it involves computers or politicians.
