I would say in the early part of the year, i thought that timeline was ridiculous. Honestly it doesn't feel that way anymore.click to expand

How do corporations make money if there are no consumers because nobody has a job?

And the general panic and suspicion of AI and automation subverting human workforce... 3 or 4 decades after it is introduced, it will become as normalized as a sidewalk.
Getting conditioned to things and adapting to new things is life's strong suit

The United States Federal Government spent 3.3 Billion Dollars on in AI research last year, and it looks like its just a matter of time before all of our jobs are replaced by with it. What a great investment.
Also, all the weird things happening with OpenAI like Sam Altman out and then in and then everyone out again. Some Board members got replaced with some interesting picks....
Bret Taylor former CEO of twitter, when twitter was working with the governments to gaslight you about Covid, Biden and his family members, and whatever else they wanted you to believe.
Larry Summers. This man has committed terrible crimes against this country. Do you know what the Glass Steagall act is? this man is one of the reason why our economy collapsed in 2008, and we had to bail out all those to big to fail banks. And he made BANK!!!!! (also an Epstein bestie.)
But Sam Altman just got his invite to the super exclusive and super secret Bilderberg Party this year. Good for him, bad for us.
If you have any information, or things you want to discuses lets do that now before we have to hide from the sentinels.

But does that make it okay? We always get into problems when we ask, “Can we do this” rather than “Should we”….

Good question.
I'm not sure, Abby.
I do know how okay it is would be determined by how people use and respond to its use.
The doubts and fears about it, i think, are due the fact that the potential of AI itself is not fully known yet. It's an unknown territory in many ways. But our way of life at the moment was once some fantastic dream some lifetimes ago, one that probably elicited fascination and worry as AI's prospect is doing now. And while it's generally agreed that the average standard of living at this point in time, on a global scale, is not great, that is more a reflection of misuse and abuse of tools and resources and people than it is about anything else. And personally, i see it as unhelpful treating the human populace as children to be protected from things.

@Lostthoughts and @Soul
Does it matter to you who has the ability to control it?
Do you believe that the people who do control it, have the power to control the people who are using it, or affected by it?

We are already cyborgs.
We rely on technology and our phones to function in society.
Nope, you and others CHOOSE to be cyborgs.
Apart from the wonders of email and visiting websites (both of which existed LONG BEFORE smartphones), I can perfectly live without the rest and frequently do.click to expand

I can definitely see the practical applications. But there’s always some asshole who comes along and ruins it for everybody.
The assholes are usually just some dudes taking advantage of a situation and prioritizing self-benefits. Their influence can be easily limited by the people, the consumer. The pool of individual actions determines the will of the collective.
Everything @Lostthoughts 's OP says about the consumer's power. While i don't yet see that happening on a significant scale, it's something i agree withclick to expand

Your welcome to live your life as you choose to.
Some of us are trying to get a head of the changes and adapt to prosper.
You mean chasing after pots of gold at the end of rainbows, such as the American Dream? Good luck with that...click to expand

AI encompasses a lot things. The spellchecker on your phone, and the predictive text that pisses everyone off, is considered AI. SIRI has been around for a while, so has Alexa. The VAST majority of AI is just mundane shit. Google Maps.. which took over Mapquest... which was also AI.
