Let's have the uncomfortable conversation about AI and Robotics

[Biggie Smiles]

For starters, by 2035 at the latest these technologies will either destroy life as we know it or make it so unrecognizable for the vast majority of us that it might as well be destroyed. This is an unavoidable fact.

I am deep in the industry where these technologies are born and raised and can tell you with first hand certainty the drivers behind these technologies (the world wide elite class) will use them as a tool to rid the world of the rest of us. It should be no secret to any of you that to them we are a burden to the planet and an impediment to the continuation of their blood lines.

they're really not even being secretive about it anymore.

Do you think for one second society will end because AI becomes self aware and suddenly pushes a button? That's just naive and probably suggests you should put down the terminator movies for good.

No no.. our own greed and mental and physical laziness which social media has been designed to fuel will have us fighting each other to the death for scraps and morsels LONG before AI wipes us off the map.

Elon Musk said it best himself

Elon Musk predicts that within 10 to 20 years, advancements in AI and robotics will make traditional employment optional, leading to a future where "universal high income" supports people. He suggests that work will become a hobby or a choice, similar to cultivating a personal garden, as robots handle most labor.

Universal high income with nothing to barter for 8 billion people in various stages of technological advancement? Seriously? C'mon... this guy is far too smart to be saying shit like this as he well knows there is a hairline between THIS environment and socialism. And we all know he's staunchly against socialism.. but he just happens to be for an outcome which flies in the face of Capitalism and a system of value through trade that has existed for thousands of years?

No no

what he means when he says there will be universal high income and people wont have to work is the timeframe AFTER us parasites are removed from the equation. The ELITES won't have to work and will have devices doing their bidding. NOT US.

Elon Musk said that saving for retirement would be optional.

So many changes. It makes me glad that I will be starting to wind down my career in about three years.

I'm onboard with this. Seems to pair nicely with my Shitbox rant. If the elites dont cull the herd, we're all going postal. If the economic cat is ever let out of the bag, its gonna be like World War Z.

Biggie I don't have grandchildren or have one on the way yet like you and Reggie Essent do.....but I wonder what kind of future babies born this year will have in 2050.....will it be better than my life....I hope so but I am not too optimistic.

Sadly it wont be--- not the track we are currently on

[Reggie Essent]

To be honest, I don't give a fuck.

World annihilation will stop AI becoming any problem. Civilisations have been destroyed time and time again. Empires conquered. Nature has a way of levelling the odds.

Humankind is a plague on this planet...and a much needed culling is in order.

I'm thinking at least 90% of all humankind needs destroying.
Even a 50% cull should set us all back to the ol' hunting and gathering times.

It would literally be a breath of fresh air for the entire planet without sounding too doomy and gloomy.

Sounds like a good time for a civil war!

A friend of mine recently got duped by an AI get-rich-quick video of Elon Musk and our Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese.
He lost around 450K, most of which was his retirement , to crypto currency fraud.

I looked at the video and could see all the telltale signs of AI script, but he's in his 70's and thought that the video was quite convincing at the time.

AI is really causing havoc with the computer illiterate these days.

Indeed. Have you seen Herman's posts?
