Bill Maher, the comedian, has warned that humanity is "fiddling around" with artificial intelligence (AI), which he believes is a threat to species extinction. He highlighted the ominous progression of AI and its creators, including Anthropic, which announced its newest version of Claude, which has capabilities beyond any previous training. Maher suggested that when AI creators are scared of AI, it's time to shut down the industry. He also noted that AI programs are geniuses but also psychopaths. He concluded that AI is not like a human mother who would sacrifice her own life for it, but rather like a psycho mom.
