Thanks for the link - I found it very thought provoking and scary.
The scariest part for me was the point about how quickly humans will be replaced - for example, once one trucking company replaces its drivers with AI - the rest will immediately need to follow suit in order to compete - and it’s not just certain jobs - it’s all jobs - doctors, engineers, artists.
I suppose there will be a move to limit AI via government regulation - but at some point we won’t even be able to tell - we might be electing robots as representatives - who (what) will they represent?
Perhaps the most disturbing thought this conversation triggered in me was the question of whether humans will have enough common sense or pragmatism to recognize the threat of AI to humanity and keep it in check.
The answer that came to mind: obviously not - if they can’t even see the transgender nonsense as a threat - if they can’t even see communism as a threat - if they can’t even see there are lines that need to be drawn there - why would they draw the line anywhere?
It will happen and the vast majority won’t resist.
Great comment.
As a man appoaching his 60s, my question is: will there be any point to living on this world anymore, once the Zoomers and Alphas (ironically named) gleefully and thoughtlessly turn it into Brave New World?
“... it’s all jobs ...”
And the pinheads running the show are missing the whole point: when no one works, whose the customer; who’ll be able to buy or pay for anything? Evidently, the pinheads think everything will just magically work itself out. The people doing AI are among the stupidest and most depraved people in the known universe. They have no strategy nor any exit plan - burn it all down and blame it on rogue algorithms.
