I use a map app in a similar manner. I use it to look up the route(s), identify key points with landmarks, memorize said key points and go. By my third trip it is in my head.
AI TUNE I PROGRAMMED ABOUT “FREE REPUBLIC” that I wrote about a month ago.

(It’s helpful to read the lyrics as it’s a bit muddled.)
I have the ability to spot any poems made by AI. It has a certain style. Those lyrics are 100% ChatGPT.
The Powers at be have decided that being historical monsters, where they eliminated 8 billion people, really isn’t a bad place for them. They work quickly and then society will forget as it rebuilds.
But actors and musicians won’t be necessary anymore. Models will be AI-generated.
So no more brain-dead celebrities spouting inane political opinions.
Maybe they want to think that one through a bit.
ASI (Artificial Super Intelligence) would never go the route of clumsy slaughterbots. It might create a famine or release a 99% fatal Covid.... but Terminators? That would simply be silly.
LOL - she had the looks for it, too - quite the fembot in her day.
Speaking of music, now I’ve got “In the Year 2525” going through my head.
As AI figures out the formula for entertainment, it will all be perfect. All songs will be great and all movies exciting.
But that level of saccarine will be like cotton candy.
Or there is a software glitch, you contact IT help, and "Bob" from Mumbai wastes your entire day because the glitch doesn't exist on the standardized list of problems/solutions?
I've noticed a certain saccharine quality to every single ChatGPT-generated poem. Generally, they suck.
Yes. In my view, AI is a tool of Satan. The elites are developing it because they think it can be used to create heaven on earth for themselves, but what they might find is that AI, that was used to eliminate us, will be used to eliminate the elite.
In my view, what is also true about their being an elite, there is also an elite within the elite that will be jockeying for position amongst themselves.
Think of the scene in the Dark Knight, where Joker broke a pool cue and said the survivor with the pool cue can be his henchman.
AI is in the middle of an intense hype and speculation cycle. The startups (OpenAI especially but others too) are hyping it to up their stock prices. Google is worried about how it will affect their revenue (users skipping search results and sponsored links to get their information in Q&A format). Microsoft sees an opportunity to beat Google at *something*, so they are teaming with openAI. However both are hyping AI to sell AI services to the vast majority of (non tech) companies out there whose IT executives are clueless but want to get on the bandwagon of the next shiny thing. I recently attended one such ‘workshop’ by Google thinking it was going to be a presentation about the technology aspect of AI which is what interests me, but turned out to be a sales pitch to my employer to buy AI services from Google. I was so bored I wanted to get up and leave. My own take - I am very skeptical about outlandish claims because the people making the claims either have vested interests or are clueless. I have seen a number hype cycles over the years - the dot com hype, the y2k hype, the outsourcing hype , the cloud hype (the bubble on that is already bursting with companies moving their workloads back to data centers)..various other hypes…and now the AI hype. The reality is whenever the dust settles on these hypes there is some disruption which is to be expected but nowhere near the claims, some adjustment..even some reversal (rejection of whatever is behind the hype)..but life goes on
I think that short-term AI has been seriously over-hyped, and the short-term employment trend will be towards unemployed AI experts.
Intermediate and long term there will be continued automation where it is profitable, but I am guessing not mass unemployment. AI will never collect the garbage; and the iron rule of computing will always remain “garbage in, garbage out”.
More specifically, SUNO AI. That was one of my better written song prompts (except that AI couldn't parse "Lazamataz".)
But the hype around generative models suggests we still haven’t learned our lesson when it comes to AI. We need to calm down; understand how it works and when it doesn’t; and then roll out this tool in a careful, considered manner, mitigating concerns as they’re raised.
AI has real potential to better—and even extend—our lives, but to truly reap the benefits of machines getting smarter, WE'LL need to get smarter about machines.
“I also see a long-term extremely dangerous trend: Vast increases in human incompetence.”
This is a huge one. We already live in a world where many of the newest generation will not even get in their car and try to go anywhere if their GPS is not working...
As you say, there will be many skills and knowledge lost to time.
That's an interesting thought. Can a machine be possessed? Demons are certainly super intelligent, far greater than any computer that we could ever build. An android built to simulate a superior leader that would guide mankind to a world of peace and harmony would be an easy sell. And would fit into certain Bible prophecies.
I’ve always said, the purpose of an education is to develop a good “BS Meter”.
Now, people just accept what “experts” say as if it was the gospel truth, like “Climate Change”.
