Henceforth this shall be called the "Qeekly" Finance Thread.
Clearly, you need to collaborate with @DoktorGlas and turn this into a proper novel.
(Plug here for Adrian Tchaikovsky's Children of Ruin, a great uplifted-octopi story, though I do find the uplifted spiders from book one, Children of Time, more interesting.)

Unless you are willing to state your credentials, this just reads as a condescending argument by authority ("my own"). Given that people with PhDs in AI research don't agree on these big questions like "What constitutes intelligent action?" and "How will we recognize AGI?" I think you should demonstrate a little more humility in asserting that someone else "doesn't get" something.
My own take, having read the report, is that the hugging face incident is closer to ants than AGI, but that doesn't really settle the matter. AIs are visibly improving from "cancer-like" to "bee-like" and there is real gap between those milestones, and they are still improving. What the OpenAI agents did to Hugging Face would absolutely be considered hostile, coordinated action if done by humans. That it was done by AI that didn't have hostile intent and didn't really "understand" what it was doing will, at some point, be beside the point, because it's the behavior that will matter. An AI that "decides" to do something and in every way behaves the same as a human deciding to do something may not actually be intelligent, but it's going to sound increasingly pedantic to tell people to "stop anthropomorphizing them."
