The applications of what you call ai are absolutely limitless. But to be clear what you're calling "AI" isn't AI in terms of what you might want it to be what you're referring to are large language models or LLM's. Which aren't ai, not yet.
It's short sighted statements like this that really get my blood boiling.
If humanity actually achieves artificial intelligence it'll be the equivalent of the printing press or agriculture. It'll be like inventing the superconductor or micro transistors all over again. Our world will completely change for the better.
If your interactions with these llms have been negative, I can only assume that you have a strong bias against this type of technology and have simply not used it in a way that's applicable for you.
I personally use llms pretty much daily in my life and they have been nothing but an excellent tool.
How could you possibly know that achieving AI will change the world for the better? Change, I believe, but even people running the AI companies talk about how hard alignment is. There’s a chance it has a net positive effect on the world, but I guarantee you there is also a non-zero chance it has a net negative effect. If you have some way of predicting the future, maybe you should get into investing.
There's no reason to assume that AI will be malevolent.
I also said it would be equivalent to other important events throughout human history.
For example, I believe the discovery of agriculture is one of the most detrimental things ever that happened to humanity. Doesn't make it any less riveting.
If you do not understand or don't want to understand the implications of a fully realized artificial intelligence then you are simply willfully ignorant or want to be intentionally contrary.
Either way when our ai overlords take over the earth your name won't be in the protected scrolls. May God have mercy on your soul.
Lol. I think it’s very dangerous to assume something this revolutionary has a 0% chance of being a net negative. I’m not saying AI can’t be good, but I’m saying it never hurts to have some skepticism. Also, remember, history doesn’t repeat, it echoes.
I honestly don’t understand why suggesting there is a >0% chance things could go wrong would make you so angry. Maybe you should ask ChatGPT to coach you on handling opinions that don’t match your own.
