I have a hunch that you and I would agree on some of those taboo sentiments. Without getting political either, I'll just say that "indoor dwellers" that never really got out of the house and thus have no real-life experience tend to worship the TV. Generally speaking, TV is less interesting people watching fake stories about people pretending to be slightly more interesting. Thus, the more boring the person, the more exciting the almighty TV. It's why kids cling to it. They're still young and learning to develop their qualities that would make them interesting and experienced. The Internet is an extension of that. It's some people's God. The amount of people who argue online with absolutely no experience in the subject matter is crazy, for instance. These people that never develop past that stage also need the system to think. All of us depend on the system somewhat for survival, but not all of us are mentally subservient to it. But, quite a few are, and they'll defend their master violently if needed. All because critical thinking, looking inward, and accepting reality takes a bit of inner strength. They teach you in acting class that the goal of any show, play, etc. is to create conflict. In a movie the protagonist is supposed to overcome this conflict. However, it's the conflict that gives them reason. A purpose. Same goes for the news. Whether you're a conspiracy theorist or not, we can all agree that conflicts can be distracting. One has to wonder if there could be anything else going in the midst of a distraction. Anyone who can't even entertain the possibility of the almighty TV being wrong or leveraged will never change. It doesn't take long to spend time doing just a bit of research to find out all of the media is controled by a few people for instance - all of it. Don't have to be a conspiracy theorist to accept that fact.

You are right... you only need a working brain, and sadly common sense is not that common
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

AI will even influence how we think about money. Ever since the humanity thought up of trading something of value, whether it be a rock or a goat, for something else they considered valuable... money (goats are a form of monney) has always centered around the idea of intrinsic value. If UBI (Universal Basic Income) is the idea floating around to address tons of people being out of jobs due to AI. Forget the start of it, imagine the next 1,000 years of people getting used to getting money for nothing. The next round of new politicians will always promise new crap. Just like any other fake momentary system it gets out of hand. Then we end up with an inflated UBI based on people doing nothing for it (except giving up their freedom, but I digress). Which means, future money will have no intrinsic value. Which is impossible. Which means money will be a concept of the past, in the way we see it now. Also, curious to know how that would affect investments if we have no concept of money (value).

Deep space exploration is a great option. Personally, I'm more concerned about what the people will be doing since I would imagine we're still a generation or two away from the robot uprising. :laugh: One thing's for sure, the economy is about to change with AI. Throughout history humans have always wanted to control others. Not all of it was bad. Some of it was, like with sl****y. But, there are quite a few directionless peeps out there that just exist. Eat, Poop, Procreate, Die. Historically, they got jobs, served the king, etc. and let someone else give them direction. That part of human nature isn't about to change. But, what is about to change is, we're about to have billions of people no longer needed to do mundane work. They already have a few fully automatic, robotic McDonald's in existence. The backbone of any economy - truckers - will end up being self-driving and automated. And so on. It's just a matter of time. The question is, what are we going to do with billions of directionless people once AI takes their job? What's currently being proposed is UBI btw, which will do more harm than good but I'll elaborate on that in a different post. Curious to know other's thoughts about what we're going to do.

The two top categories that I feel that AI has the most beneficial use currently and in the future for the human species is: Medical (diagnosis and optimal procedure recommendations, in particular) Deep space exploration Every time I think of this subject, these two categories are always at the top of the list. There are literally thousands of non-beneficial categories and scenarios, but I won't go into those here for obvious reasons.
I'm glad to see your support for environmental conservation! https://www.intcoplastic.com/en is a highly recommended website that offers premium products and solutions for Recycled plastic pellets. Recycled plastic pellets play a crucial role in the environmental industry by reusing waste plastic, reducing the consumption of natural resources, and effectively mitigating environmental impacts.

I'd assumed, that like me, every one was an old fogey on this site :laugh: The 80's really was a fantastic time for pop music.

Substitute "looms" for "AI" and your fear sounds rather familiar.

G'day Folks, Looking back on the development of AI (Artificial Intelligence) and for those that don’t know it, it’s worthwhile looking at; "What is Artificial Intelligence (AI) & Why is it Important? | Accenture[^]" AI is being introduced too soon in too many applications where now I am starting to think that AI is running itself and taking over. It is in my opinion, getting out of hand and starting to get difficult to handle, i.e. control. I am reminded of Murphy's Law "Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.", eventually and maybe sooner than we think. The AI projects as a whole needs to be withdrawn until the project can be better controlled and stop it from generating misinformation. That large Businesses have introduced AI into their Corporate Systems I believe was misguided for an application that was still in the development stage, i.e. not fully proven, and the ramifications are being felt now with many taking a few steps back. Just my “Tuppence worth” (old saying for Two pennies worth) take care and practice extreme caution when using AI. Regards Roger Hass / PC-Bug Fixer now in Tanilba Bay NSW 2319 Australia

That’s a very accurate observation. Totally agree. Willing to bet the reason violence used to be so prevalent was due to boredom. Now we have jobs, video games, and TV to “feed” us. Right one of those things is teaching war. If a second one is removed like jobs… gonna be a lot of bored people again.

First fear: Is there a politician in DC who hasn't already thought "How can my party and I secretly exploit AI to put us in power perpetually?" Corollary to first fear: Legislation isn't going to "save us from AI' when the people writing regulations are political animals (as we all are). Second fear: "AI" become the new religion which can tell people to do things "because AI said so" even though it's an actual person telling sheep (people) what to do.

Yes, all those people who made buggy whips, horseshoes, and stage coaches were homeless and unemployed after that evil Henry Ford starting building automobiles!

Agree about medical, but it will be drug discovery where the intersection with quantum computing is going to have it spitting out so many concoctions to put in people to alter biochemistry etc that we literally evolve into multiple new species as we go far beyond eliminating ailments. After the 8th accidental space tourism collision all the space stuff will be mostly only hold until we launch a bunch of giant nets to scoop up all the stuff in LEO in a giant cleanup mission.

I thought the same thing for space flight, and Tesla or Elon Musk with his work on self driving cars, can utilize the same technology for space mining drones around our asteroid belt using SpaceX.

Medical would be interesting if the AI is given ALL the known data. It would tell everyone to change their lifestyle to avoid all of the interactions and side effects of drugs that only mitigate illness. Of course, the more likely scenario is that the drug companies, having massive money and power, will ensure that only drugs and surgical interventions are acceptable treatment, and greed will prevail.
