OpenAI’s offices were sent thousands of paper clips in an elaborate prank to warn about an AI apocalypse::The prank was a reference to the “paper clip maximizer” scenario – the idea that AI could destroy humanity if it were told to build as many paper clips as possible.
I’m genuinely worried I’ll be watching TV and Clippy will appear: “It looks like your entire species is about to be vaporised by a coordinated drone strike. Would you like some help? Well, you gotta beg for it now, bitch!”

“With our premium subscription for just $9.99/month you’ll get additional 5 minutes before you’ll get evaporated.”
“Read it all!”
