AI - Artificial Intelligence - Will it eat you Alive?

A large percentage of what you see in social media is AI generated. That’s where the real threat comes from. Unfortunately, there are many people who see an AI generated Twitter post and believe it.

100%

Half the population can’t tell fact from fiction. Wait until these deepfake/AI doctored videos start improving and they will be utterly convinced.

It has to. If people don’t have jobs, they don’t have money to buy things and capitalism collapses.

People don't have jobs or money now.

That won't stop the machine; there will likely just be a greater disparity between the rich and poor. AI won't fundamentally change human character traits such as greed, self preservation, and tribalism.

Beyond that, I was really talking more about the notions of advancing mankind.

There are many possible outcomes. We do know a few things for certain though. Greed still drives humanity. The government is slow to change and usually waits till the last possible minute. 8 billion humans came into existence because of industrialism and mass farming but soon that need for 8 billion will disappear. How it all plays out is uncertain but I’d guess the earth’s future population will be a few billion less and new way of thinking about economics will surface.

meh. It would not be that difficult to shut down servers. Control access. In the end, simply pull the plug.

Viruses and other threats could be unleashed on rogue AI's

The so called scenario is laughable because bottom line is that AI's will always be poor copies of the human brain and thus never able to truly take over. not to mention their basic vulnerability to the simple act of pulling the plug and turning off the power.

It’s really amazing what China has and is able to accomplish. Their auto manufacturers are pretty much leaving the rest of the world behind. They develop a whole new car line in 1/2 the time that we can do here. Their workers are cheaper and look forward to working longer hours than their American counterparts.

China also produces about 4X the amount of STEM graduates on a yearly basis vs the US. We better start learning how to freaking compete!

robots are not AI

the best AI is only a poor copy of the human brain

And yet in the not too distant future most workers will be searching for meaning in their life once their 9-5 gig is gone.
 
It's hard to explain but AI is not what I worry about.

It's humans prompting AI to do nefarious things for instance...

"monitor a specific persons online activity for a couple months,
capture keystrokes, facial recognition pictures, etc. then after your
have sufficient access, commence with operation wipe out.

then specific person wakes up and has nothing
no credit, no money, no access, no email, no phone, etc...

and MFA protections all use the internet so that data
can be intercepted and cloned as well.

Facial recognition is already employed in most cities I believe as are license plate readers. Do I like it, No, but We the People are not the ones who make the rules unfortunately.

this is why archives; even paper archives; are so critical. The thing about paper archives is that they cannot be altered online.

Its helps that they don't have a billion regulations to stop them from doing whatever they please.....

As far as education we are definitely behind and its sad.

I guess you think that AI is like a super villain or maybe Transformers

Your inability to grasp the reality that if you can kill a human you can certainly kill a machine is awesome

Just look at all the fake AI out there. It’s everywhere and people like you are so gullible you believe it. That’s a huge problem. Now who has the inability to grasp what AI is all about?
