| > AI is a losing bet either way. It’s a “dehumanising" technology, controlled by a handful of people. That's not a law of nature, it's a consequence of the current system of laws, and only one of its problems among many others - this is important to understand because removing AI (an impossible task, but let's hallucinate), isn't going to fix the system. > at currently zero overall value for humanity itself, The value of AI is currently negative - the costs outweigh the benefits, but the reason for it is the rushed and economically reckless deployment. Again, that's not due to how AI has to be it's due to how we do it. > This whole AI displacement of human values and creation won’t go down without a fight, There are a lot of ways to "fight", the good ones don't involve getting physical or getting mad. > what we see are just the first ripples of human collective anger and unlike in the movies, my bet is on the humans. Anger is a recipe for disasters. AI is here to stay, the cat is out of the bag, there's no way to put it back in, it's basic politics. Fixating on AI, instead of fixing our ways of using AI, is a major blunder. The fix isn't as simple as "in the movies", it's outside of the mainstream but that space is a minefield too - there's a lot to learn before good choices can be made. |
