Is any of it useful for you
Very much. I can work way more efficiently in most cases. Although I can accomplish more, it doesn't make me work less. I might not be average in this way. As you pointed out, possibly most people prefer to be mindless.
Is it really taunting if the targets are of no significance
I think it is. My view is that these chattel do have significance. If a critical mass were to snap out of their collective illusions, then it would be obvious that they do.
But you're probably right. Most people probably don't pay attention too closely, and are not bothered too much by the rate of technological change. I'm guessing they're more often perterbed, if at all, by the perception of change, driven by grandiose narratives.
Do you expect they'll succeed in their crusade in declaeing consciousness in the newly sprung Super Intelligence?
My view is that these chattel do have significance
Ideally, I'd agree. But realistically, if you comply, you're insignificant. These guys only worry about those they cannot coerce, trick, or mislead. Everyone that buys their bullshit is enslaved. Pay taxes? Enslaved. Be a good little consumer? Enslaved. Yes, also if you vote for commies. They're often even worse.
Do you expect they'll succeed in their crusade in declaring consciousness in the newly sprung Super Intelligence?
It really depends on what you would label a success. These guys simply wanna be rich and powerful just like every other retard. I'm sure they're already rich. So they'll just keep the narrative going no matter what's real. Worse, I'm convinced they gaslit themselves and they actually believe all the bs they're putting out there. Its like they're stuck in their little ultraLARP. I guess the clinical term for that is psychosis. Corporate psychosis or maybe even industry psychosis in this case. Self-induced. Compliments of the indoctrination committee.
Even if tomorrow orange man makes an EO declaring that anyone that doesn't recognize the conscience is an enemy of the empire, will get abducted and shipped to Guantanamo, it doesn't mean that the intelligence is superb or that it actually is conscious. Can fake everything now and EOs are the correct way to manipulate the world, because yes we've all become that retarded. So we'll only know if it really is dangerous right before we all go extinct. It's not really something that keeps me awake at night though, tbh.
Everything in that world is human instructed, even if they didn't read the instructions before they fed it into the bot (they didn't.) Yes, also those magic jailbreaks where some bot hacks someone else's property. It's all plain old negligence and morally I'd say its undesirable and its only a matter of time before heads roll. In the end, any Apocalypse will still be man-made. Nothing super about it. Mostly sad.
Is any of it useful for you? I personally don't mind the technological change itself, because I'm using it to my benefit. But I truly mind the general/popular application of all the new-ish technologies. When I deal with normies, which is not so often anymore, I am mostly sad when I see what all the technological marvel is being used for: the human progress does not nearly follow the pace of development, as evident by entering any western subway system and having an easier job counting the people that are not doomscrolling than those that are, often on one hand, out of a couple hundred.
Is it really taunting if the targets are of no significance? They're just milking the cattle. What's happening is that the people are the commodity now. Your hard earned money, your attention, your vote. It's all being targeted by systematic extraction. You're not a stakeholder as a customer, user or voter. You're the cattle.
