@ImQuaziSorry@HenryHonto@AlexFinn If you have the time, this is an excellent read. It’s a hypothetical scenario, but sober and factual. It makes the argument that too much AI success too quickly could be catastrophic to an economy built on scarce human knowledge.

@adam_dorr All the marketing for AI is how destructive it’s going to be to jobs. This is being pushed by the AI companies themselves. How do you expect people to react?
@MikeMumbelz@TheChiefNerd AI is not something any economic system could prepare for. Taking humans out of the loop has been impossible until right now. It’s a new problem and no system is prepared for it. Paired with robotics, it will be a global catastrophe.
@mburm201@IMAO_ Closest is probably the discovery of nuclear fission. Though it obviously had a huge impact, its promise of abundance were never really realized.
@HudichevaBaba@Lagud100@RealJeffFreeman@VigilantFox Right, the analogy is limited. Horses were always slaves unlike modern humans. My point still stands though. If a technology like AI makes humans go the way of horses, we become useless eaters owned by those that finance our existence. An utter disaster for human flourishing.
