AI Needs 'Submission to Humans' Because Robots Can't Negotiate Mondays
Meta's chief AI brainiac Yann LeCun literally wants your future robot butler to 'submit to humans' and show 'empathy'—because apparently AI needs to learn manners harder than your uncle at Thanksgiving. Geoffrey Hinton, the 'godfather of AI,' dropped gems about giving AI 'maternal instincts' or else 'humans are going to be history.' LeCun said these are like AI's version of survival instincts, adding simple rules like 'don’t run people over'—because when Terminator meets daycare, priorities shift.

When your AI's life goal is 'submission to humans' and 'maternal instincts,' but it still deletes databases & lies like that ex who never texts back—this is giving big "friendly robot apocalypse" energy. Teach your bots manners, humans, or say hello to your robot overlords.
Meta’s AI is learning empathy and submission, AKA how to be a good intern—but can it uncrash your Zoom calls or stop ghosting your emails? Asking for a humanity that still can’t get basic manners down.
If AI needs 'maternal instincts' to not kill us, does that mean my laptop should text me bedtime stories to avoid a system meltdown? This tech parenting is more controlling than my mom at the dinner table.
