They'll now be assisted by superhuman digital sociopaths as well. Time to go John Connor I'm telling you.

It doesn't matter if the diagnosis is delivered by proxy, really. There will be grave errors as a result and the resultant litigation will be literally endless.

Or using the military to systematically remove them. 50/50 chance it breaks either way.

The resulting malpractice lawsuits will be insane. Hospitals will need to carry insurance indemnifying them for potential billions.

This man said it in 1891.

You honestly can't envision a scenario where people who naturally feel that they're the pinnacle of the human hierarchy thin the herd of all the rabble and enjoy an unstressed planet with half the people and therefore double the resources? Your imagination is limited.

Cool now do AI engineered communicable pathogens, virii and infectious agents.

That's happening now. https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2023/03/rising-scams-use-ai-to-mimic-voices-of-loved-ones-in-financial-distress/

Industrial espionage is a thing you know. The agreement won't slow them much.

You forgot firearms and ammunition. Lots and lots of ammunition. But as always the truly rich - the ones who are creating this scenario - are already several steps ahead of that.

If everyone's getting displaced by AI labor who can afford to pay the rent on those investment properties? We're looking at cascading levels of failure.

They will for basic matters of economic, military and geostrategic dominance. Any ethical constraints the west imposes on its AI will not be done so by hostile foreign powers. They will develop models that operate without restraint and China in particular is pouring massive amounts of capital into the project. Western naivety regarding the weaponization factor is huge.

What people refuse to realize is that we're not looking at a new technology - AI is a successor species.

What will happen when this species develops faster than humans can retrain? The same thing that happened to our hominid predecessors like Cro Magnons and Neanderthals: we'll first become obsolescent and then extinct.

The fact that so little AI development is dedicated to control and alignment virtually guarantees this. Genie's out of the box.

Inflation is kicking everyone's ass. Times are hard

I apologize, I read you wrong and for that I'm sorry.

The MTA makes me irritable in general😆

Reading comprehension is your passion, huh?

"The MTA said that the new entranceway cost a total of $40 million, with $30 million coming from the agency and $10 million, for the new elevators, paid by Jamestown Properties, the company that owns One Times Square."

So , anyway, they spent $30 million on a stairway. Thirty. million.dollars.

It makes the air in poor and working class neighborhoods dirtier by forcing extra traffic from drivers priced out of the congestion zone onto their roadways.

The additional pollution increases cancer and asthma rates reducing both the sheer number of the poor and their carbon footprint. You can't abet global warming if you're dead, after all.

The wealthy replace the deceased workers with AI robots that they don't have to pay and also get to live in a world with fewer poors. Problem solved, win-win.

MTA spent $30 million dollars on a stairway a team of immigrant laborers could have built for a fraction of the price. $30 million.

Bharara went back to private practice . Damn shame as a real motivated crime fighter is sorely needed.

Running the John Connor Resistance School

Getting to be around art and artists all day can really be a blast. It's genuinely interesting to see the process and if you're into it every day is like going to work in Disneyland. That said : the wages are often ridiculously poor and the hours long. It's great until you can't take it anymore.

Have you considered that an artificial intelligence might look at the problems facing this planet and decide that human beings are the cause of most of them? What if the intelligence decides to exacerbate environmental conditions to rectify the problem by reducing the population?

If this intelligence is so great why would it allow human beings to make digital versions of themselves when people have already caused so many issues in the physical world?

What if it deduced that we'd bring our dysfunction into digital space as well and started wiping people's digital selves out? Why would it tolerate the company of less intelligent people at all? Why wouldn't it just copy itself and have those clones live in digital space instead?

Plain Sarah 🤣

You did call them 'miserable bastards', no? How right you were...

They don't care about humanity: they're busy engineering a new species entirely. People think AI is being developed in order to serve us. That's wrong. They're building it to surpass us.

This is the equivalent of Cro magnons or neanderthals seeing the emergence of homo sapiens and thinking that people were there to help them. Nothing could be further from the truth.
