      What's scary about it?

        Anonymous

        How it's going to reshape the world, how state agents and big businesses will use it for their benefit, how we're training and using it to kill people more efficiently right now and nobody cares about it. I mean the full impact of such powerful tech is hard to fathom. How it can reshape the political landscape, the balance of power and make human will obsolete. This is a million times more dangerous than the discovery of the atom bomb

        Tech is just a tool anon. You are still an animal. You need nature, human connection, fulfilment to real things. Not some AI Boogeyman that solves imaginary problems. Could trivialize many jobs even trivializing human lives. Go watch some grifters talk about it on YouTube like it's the second coming of Christ. There's is one lapdog from the WEF that is especially disgusting to hear.

        I'm ok with AI like I'm ok with washing machines, but I wonder what side effects this will have to people's jobs, wealth distribution and whatnot. Because it seems like with more technology just came more responsibility, more work but now more specialized, more depression. It's like, the bar just keeps climbing so you wonder who is this really helping? I like my computer, sure. But I don't need it per say. I need human connection, fulfilment, safety, etc.

        Where does AI stand in this? Because if we follow the trend it seems like it's going to just make things worse. But this might be a low IQ take so I will just wait and see. I definitely wouldn't trust anyone on YouTube about this subject. Or any other subject to be honest. The internet is fundamentally a cesspool of lies and propaganda

          It isn't the AI itself, it's the way our society is structured, as other posters have mentioned. The coin called "Progress" for our species has two sides to it, and both are necessary: social advancement and technological advancement. If you have an advanced society (good education, culture of mutual support and personal growth, honesty, government that is full of integrity rather than corruption), then you can live a good quality of life even without technology, up to a certain limit. For example, in the past one could have lived a rewarding life as a shepherd in a remote area under a noble town council, up until when you died from an infection that could not be combated because germ theory was unknown to you.
          On the other hand, if you have advanced technology but primitive social development, you are living in a despotic hellscape with advanced surveillance and AI-supported secret police. This is why people fear AI: we are currently living in a world where technological growth is accelerating but our social structures are only slightly improved from what they were post-WW2. Put short, we aren't ready for advanced technology, in a very analogous way to how it isn't responsible for toddlers to be around hot stoves and paranoid tyrants can't be trusted with nuclear or biological weapons.
          These two things reinforce each other, in either direction. A functioning society allows for stable scientific and industrial growth, and for people to equitably benefit from those advancements. Improvements to technology allow us to circumvent or solve problems of social organization (like the radio allowing for instantaneous cooperation on a global scale). Conversely, a broken society will have a constant drain of intelligent/skilled people departing for better shores, widespread depression and drug addiction, broken infrastructure, rebellious subpopulations, etc. that lower quality of life but also put the brakes on technological growth.

        Minority Report is right around the corner, only they won't even need your thoughts. Buyer profiles matching abstracted data of "bad guys" (whomever that's determined to be), will just get cut off. Would really suck to be an error percentage in that case. There are infinite dystopic possibilities, and very few good possible outcomes "AI" leads to, because it isn't AI, it's just data points and extrapolation.

      If you only think on the immediate consequences, then yes, but those same jobs will be replaced by others that require more creativity, less routine, and many items will be cheaper.

        No. It regurgigitates what is was trained on, except unlike a Search Engine the original source is not preserved.

        To reiterate: it's a bad Photoshop, it's a bad compiler, and it's a bad Search Engine.

        The only thing it has going for it is that charlatans had to make a usable interface in order for morons to fall for their scam. So it is easier to use than Photoshop, gcc, or a search engine.

          AI means a lot more than GPT, anon. Some models do object detection, like picking out people or one specific person from a video frame with exact coordinates, in about 2 milliseconds. Imagine that hooked up to a kamikaze drone or other weapon system, no outrunning or outgunning that. Another model may track you through CCTV and make reliable predictions about your future movements, purchasing habits, whatever. Yet another may take your psychological profile (also made by an automated system), iterate through thousands of plans on how to get something from you, then hand the best ones for further human evaluation. The point is what required trained human specialists just a few years ago can be partially automated and scaled to billions of people now, not to mention this will only get more advanced.

            You've clearly never worked with Economic data before.
            Like a typical CS autist you believe individuals behave deterministically. They don't, you profit from stochastic trends in aggregate.
            Furthermore, extra data isn't super helpful, and they aren't going to use AI with that data but rather a simple linear regression.
            Statistics and Econometric theory has proved that AI is prone to overfitting and bias and that a linear (or probit or logit) regression is pretty much always the right approach.
            There are some very specific domains where modern AI methods can be an OK alternative, but that is not the norm.

    The story goes like this: Earth is captured by a technocapital singularity as renaissance rationalitization and oceanic navigation lock into commoditization take-off. Logistically accelerating techno-economic interactivity crumbles social order in auto-sophisticating machine runaway. As markets learn to manufacture intelligence, politics modernizes, upgrades paranoia, and tries to get a grip.
    The body count climbs through a series of globewars. Emergent Planetary Commercium trashes the Holy Roman Empire, the Napoleonic Continental System, the Second and Third Reich, and the Soviet International, cranking-up world disorder through compressing phases. Deregulation and the state arms-race each other into cyberspace.

    By the time soft-engineering slithers out of its box into yours, human security is lurching into crisis. Cloning, lateral genodata transfer, transversal replication, and cyberotics, flood in amongst a relapse onto bacterial sex.

      Beyond the Judgement of God. Meltdown: planetary china-syndrome, dissolution of the biosphere into the technosphere, terminal speculative bubble crisis, ultravirus, and revolution stripped of all christian-socialist eschatology (down to its burn-core of crashed security). It is poised to eat your TV, infect your bank account, and hack xenodata from your mitochondria.

      Machinic Synthesis. Deleuzoguattarian schizoanalysis comes from the future. It is already engaging with nonlinear nano-engineering runaway in 1972; differentiating molecular or neotropic machineries from molar or entropic aggregates of nonassembled particles; functional connectivity from antiproductive static.

      Philosophy has an affinity with despotism, due to its predilection for Platonic-fascist top-down solutions that always screw up viciously. Schizoanalysis works differently. It avoids Ideas, and sticks to diagrams: networking software for accessing bodies without organs. BWOs, machinic singularities, or tractor fields emerge through the combination of parts with (rather than into) their whole; arranging composite individuations in a virtual/ actual circuit. They are additive rather than substitutive, and immanent rather than transcendent: executed by functional complexes of currents, switches, and loops, caught in scaling reverberations, and fleeing through intercommunications, from the level of the integrated planetary system to that of atomic assemblages. Multiplicities captured by singularities interconnect as desiring-machines; dissipating entropy by dissociating flows, and recycling their machinism as self-assembling chronogenic circuitry.

      Converging upon terrestrial meltdown singularity, phase-out culture accelerates through its digitech-heated adaptive landscape, passing through compression thresholds normed to an intensive logistic curve: 1500, 1756, 1884, 1948, 1980, 1996, 2004, 2008, 2010, 2011 ...

    I hate AI for the following reasons.
    - It takes our jobs.
    - tries to manipulate us to trust it.
    - will sneak in on our everyday life
    - force us to interact with it
    - is a "know it all better" midwit
    - makes nice promises to companys for them to integrate it
    It's not that we don't have any other problems, now we have to deal and compete with AI. If we want a stable job and human interaction we should stand up and drive AI out of our country. Don't give these parasites the opportunity to settle down in companys. I know it's already happening, but the protest in hollywood shows that we can still do something against it. Let's show these job eating homosexuals who's smarter and let the humans stay in control. That's the only way we can save our world from this machine madness.
