Signal’s Meredith Whittaker gets feisty in BBC quick-fire interview.
The president of the Signal Foundation refused to say whether she thinks AI doomerism is “hype or real” and passed on a bunch of other questions we never get to hear. But she did concede that AI has a “bro culture” problem and that she’d probably choose a bear in the woods over an AI with all her passwords. (Though both are bad.)
TL;DR
- Meredith Whittaker refused to classify AI doomerism as "hype or real."
- She conceded that AI has a "bro culture" problem.
- Whittaker humorously stated a preference for a bear over an AI with her passwords.
