No worries since we’re not a democracy.

AI is allied to Transhumanism, the real problem!; Jon Rappoport has numerous articles on this.

There is no other tech that keeps me up at night the way AI does.

I wont even use any of those smart speaker gizmos because of that.

What the founders understood about democracy - one man one vote on everything - is that it only works in small localities. The larger the jurisdiction attempting 100% democracy 100% of the time, the more the process tends to become a tyranny.

So the founders have us a constitutional republic (res publica, as in “representing” the public, not mere democracy).

They understood that a “majority” that thinks just because it is a “democracy” it can do whatever it wants, it will, naturally become a “tyranny of the majority”. At some point it will evolve to a dictatorship, as Rome did after its republic fell.

What a geographically huge “democracy” will ignore is the distinctness, diversity, and identity bound up in its places, and its places will begin to see the center as representing no one but itself.

Trump was already a reaction to that arrogant “center” that thinks it can democratically, and by executive and judicial fiat, impose its writ, unwillingly, on all the diverse places across the land; sqaushing the diversity and identity of the regions into a vast mono-culture tyranny of a “democracy”.

It is not far-fetched to imagine self-driving cars “choosing” routes that go past merchants who “advertise” surreptitiously, using the autonomous vehicles. How much would McDonald’s pay to route the cars and slow them down when they pass the Golden Arches?

How much would a political party pay to skew a Google search on their candidates? It is likely that searches are skewed in ways that are not deliberate as well. The unfathomable layers of complexity in contemporary AI make objectivity and balance nearly impossible to ensure and enforce.

He's right on this part... and humans will adapt. We'll 'notice' the McDonald's route is being chosen too often and we'll grouse about it. Just like we do with pop-up ads.
