News about AI might be annoying if you're not working with it, but the new age is inescapable.
A lot of the progress is privatized and militarized as a priority. With computers becoming your personal genius, it's like a ginie in the bottle.
Companies that develop AI are sticking it into everything and getting the results they need for the most part.
The result they didn't get is people using it for daily life, it's mostly for queries that you would type in google, or professional use to get work done for you.
The militarized version was probably one of the first things that AI was being used for. Normal people were always wishing that it wouldn't be the case, but when it came out that Palantir is happy to take on the dirty job, no one bat an eye that it's already in use to efficiently "eliminate" or achieve whatever destructive outcome required.
Strange to think that whatever good people want to wish for and hope doesn't come to fruiting, someone has already made it to do just that without remourse and being proud of it.
Most of the development is obviously financially motivated. If people's comfort was a priority, we would have mute buttons on microwaves.
Sometimes I ask myself what would be the alternatives, and it's basically goal motivated. Greed and manufactured scarcity with a sprinkle of confution keeps people strained and focused on money to keep their basic lifestyles. Majority of people have to keep an eye on what they can allow themselves and worry month-to-month or day-to-day about their financial allowance to live the way they want to.
On one side, it controls how much we consume. On the other side, some people suffer more than others. With the shift in reduced labour, automation, digital currency, it's all going one way until someone finds a way to make money off of it or take power. If that happens on a large scale, a lot of people will be confused on where it's going and how to adapt leading to major losses across the board. This scenario is based on a power trip of AI companies, private investors, and governments allowing it to happen.
Ideal outcome would be to offer alternatives that suite individuals that don't box them in. e.g. if banks roll out digital currency, maybe don't disable the old way of trading, keep those ATMs, keep banks open for business to every individual. Provide just benefits of using new types of systems, let people grow into it.
But we've seen with C0VlD lockdowns, and English "mandatory digital ID", that it pretty much becomes required to belong to the new group overnight because someone sitting in a leather chair decided so.
Any time such changes are made, we don't even question nor are told who is pushing the agenda and what are the real reasons. It's like they discovered "human hivemind" and monetizing it.
Ok, this is more than AI progress, but it all comes together as an ongoing generational progress. Young people (under 25) are unlikely to understand this world until they dive in, into few different areas and how the world actually works. Some understand how we're being played, others are blissfully unaware of how a simple media campaign can push them to "new age ideal lifestyle" i.e. non-traditional identity. That seems to be over for now, but scary to even think back to the days when being "straight" was treated as a crime, and mental gymnastics grew exponentially, until even a presence becomes a crime because labels become automatic.
Likely people can change and express differently so that certain destructive ideologies come to light.
Similar to the AI boom. We're likely to create tools that take advantage of current generation until it catches up and turns things around to something that works in practice for the people.
I'm thinking of a funny presentation of "AI infected robot" that was made to hold a pellet gun, and asked to shoot, but the robot refused and wouldn't do it on command. When asked to "play" as if it's shooting him, there was zero hesitation and the robot shot the pellet gun at the man.
Such cases of course are being patched in "progressive" way. Instead of locking down the behaviour, the AI will be trained to learn more about personalities, limits it should consider and outcomes. The only outcome for now is unfortunately that any damage caused by AI is to shut it down, or fix it. It's treated as an actor that has zero accountability. Where we didn't get yet, is governments making the companies accountable for any damage due to negligence for the most part. That might be easier said than done, because AI doesn't work as obidient entity. It's more of required trimming of it's abilities.
A lot of the development we often don't come across - is behind closed doors. But it's still coming to the same point where all knowing ideal entity is created and will be praised for having foreseeing abilities. That will be not due to it being that smart, but actually using the information available that we all rely on. Just like a forecast for weather being available 7 to 30 days ahead with fair accuracy, AI will be doing the same, but with any information, building additional relations between all the things that you're not even thinking about.
At times AI can suggest something that is not really part of the idea that you're trying to build, but good to consider. It will be pushing those abilities.
All that happening in parralel with all other advancements where digital world will be meeting physical world - science, equipment, cars, various systems that leap across to having precise human abilities.
This will be the great deception that it's an amazing great thing. The real question is, does it contribute to our happiness? I can answer it now - it will take away knowledge of what happiness is or how to have it.
Keep your human elements with understanding of what AI can do for you.
It's like another species on this planet. Interacting with a penguin can be fun, but it won't build you. Even if it's directly connected to your brain, it will take over what you are, rather than add to you.
All this I think is due to humans liking to experiment and get an exciting outcome that is consistent. People working with those things are exited with the capabilities, but it needs our attention and consumption to prove experiments to be lifechanging influence.
All in all, at times we may feel to have no choice. Or things changing around us that we don't quiet grasp. Having alternatives, or striving to find your way of doing things is likely to save you, rather than follow a blueprint made for you.
