At what point will we stop telling the algorithms what we think, and the algorithms will start telling us what we think? And how will we even know the difference?
Thanks Karen for your insightful writing it always brings me back to the blessing of coming to know the Creator of all things (back in August 1991) and thanks to His book I know how it all ends.....read John chapter 3.
"At what point will we stop telling the algorithms what we think, and the algorithms will start telling us what we think? And how will we even know the difference?"
Probably because they'll start speaking all 'misinformation'. But I don't believe it will ever happen.
What exactly is the difference between what they call AI and the idiots who parrot mainstream everything?
I've been on vacation from email for awhile so ended up reading all three articles at once. Mind boggling to say the least. Perhaps I'm naive, but this doesn't scare me very much. All this AI relies on human interaction and I'm not too impressed by the technological world or the humans in charge. It seems technology fails on a daily basis; my cell phone screws up every other day.
What I find more frightening is the number of clueless that believe nothing but the propaganda they consume daily. I fear generations that feel, but are incapable of thinking. I fear governments who lie about everything. I fear an education system that is one big joke. I fear our move away from the natural world to the point that most people never notice the weird things in the sky. I fear a medical system that puts profit before people.
But none of my concerns have paralyzed me. I change what I can - me. Even at 75 I can still make a difference if I live my life without the constraints of worry. And I stop caring what others think of me.
If you want to know what will happen; you simple watch the “year million” series.
The end of the human world.
So what can we do now?
Deep inside we know we can create.
So vision yourself in a world that you really would like to live in. When you are 65, like me, it’s easy, i just think about my youth.
And then i imagine a more beautiful world.
Without all the things that i know are not good. And every food is organic, every water is energetic. No planes, so no spraying of chemicals. And we live in that vision. It becomes real, and we create it all together.
From reading the comments I read fear. It is the most dangerous feeling to have right now. There is nothing to be have fear about. We need to take control of our lives instead of allowing the gods as you call them to control us. We all have the power in us to take control. Do not allow anyone to have control.
Chilling. Technology without ethics. How many sci-fi books, movies, etc. have envisioned this kind of future and shown us that IT DOESN'T END WELL? What more is it going to take? Like you, I can't fathom the blithe excitement at each new advancement of this seemingly inexorable AI and robotic takeover. Did any of these developers read Huxley??
The late Steven Hawking warned about this years ago. Even Elon Musk did at one point as well. Uncontrolled AI has the potential to be an existential threat to humanity. So why are we ignoring the precautionary principle in this case, even as we overuse / abuse that same principle about virtually everything else?
Exponential rates are often used to stoke fear. We had exponentially more infectious COVID variants and exponentially accelerating climate change. Russia will gobble up all of Europe if we don't stop them in Ukraine. Now this AI-development, based on rather thin evidence. Stay frosty.

It’s good to keep talking about this but fear is not going to help anything. Progress is inevitable.

HAVE NO FEAR & BELIEVE IN YOURSELF
Are the ghouls actually going to allow their megalomaniac egos to be replaced by an emotionally immature passive-aggressive algorithm? 🤔

This scares the hell out of me

Since these machines require far more foundational resources than humans, should this trend play out the earth will be dismantled at a quicker rate.
