My favourite movie of all time: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dr._Strangelove The writing and acting is superb and the same goes for the sets and camera work. Come to think of it, the only thing I dislike (and greatly so) is the trailer as it to me profoundly fails to communicate the atmosphere of the movie.

I suspect it's more than that. “Under this award, the performer will develop prototype frontier AI capabilities to address critical national security challenges in both warfighting and enterprise domains,” the Defense Department said.
“National security challenges” is incredibly broad, providing the right size of boots to USCG rescue swimmers could be considered a national security challenge.
it says _critical_

> No one would do that.
Y'know though, there's quite a lot of really stupid things being done by humanity's so-called "leaders" right now (industry and gov't both) that saner folk thought no one would ever do. Sadly, sanity is not the norm these days among those thinking they're "large and in charge"...

#40Does anyone have any idea what the DoD could possibly want from OpenAI? Less accurate/more sycophantic missiles?
You realize that the DoD has a huge amount of normal business work like logistics, project management, people management, benefits management, etc? Right?
The United States Military (Waterhouse has decided) is first and foremost an unfathomable network of typists and file clerks, secondarily a stupendous mechanism for moving stuff from one part of the world to another, and last and least a fighting organization. —Cryptonomicon
