AI won't destroy humanity, if anything does, humans will destroy humanity. AI is a tool like any program, if we prematurely give it the power to cause a lot of damage, it's not the AI fault it's the human who didn't sufficiently test before pushing to production.

This, 100%. I fear malevolent humans welding AI much more than it going rogue on its own.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
