I 'love' how we moved from 'AI will kill us all' terminator mindset where its obvious huge fuckup of stupid greedy mankind, to current state debating 'well skynet will anyway happen, no way stopping it now, lets try to be friends with it and show some respect'.

Like that Austin Powers part [1] where steam roller is coming in, still 50m far away, and the guy is just frozen and helplessly screams for 2 minutes till it reaches him and rolls over him.

I don't have a quick solution, but this is plain stupidity, in same way research into immortality is plain stupidity now, it will end up in endless dictatorship by the worst scum mankind can produce.

The problem is very few are willing to take on the level of discomfort it would take to enact change.

Discomfort? We didnt have chatgpt 5 years ago, what the heck you mean, googling or actually learning stuff?

But maybe mankind is really to dumb and weak to get through civilization filters, be it external or self made.

You’re talking about how citizens without power individually can wield it collectively to take the power from the few that have it today to protect themselves . That requires a lot of discomfort- from mild organizing and going to meetings, to (at the extreme) giving your life to that cause. The most people en masse seem to be willing to do to discomfort themselves is to change their profile background.
