Thank you for highlighting the potential dangers of AI. I find that the films and documentaries that have taught me the most are those that expose harsh truths, such as Schindler's List or perhaps short videos on social media depicting graphic footage of Gaza or the mistreatment of animals before they reach our supermarkets. While it is difficult to confront these grim realities, it is crucial to acknowledge them. Thank you for starting this conversation about AI.
What is the hidden dilemma? Many people are dying of incurable sicknesses and modern medical science is helpless of mental and chronic illnesses. AI is making it worse. AI can do everything except save people's lives. AI ChatGPT will destroy the whole world not by violence or outsmarting them but by giving people the impression that they know when they don't. They never know they are being misled. People can never know who they are internally; they can only have textbooks and limited conventional knowledge about inner human consciousness and spirituality. People become more ignorant but think they are wise. False knowledge is the worst kind; people can kill themselves, dying slowly and silently.
It doesn't matter if the technology can be weaponised or susceptible to a runaway doomsday scenario, anti-humanist governments and corporations will be the owners of the tech, not a well-educated population. Big Tech is like big Pharma: money matters, not people.
I am glad I am old. Done this n that and getting out of "dear life" isn't that scary. But, our hopes can be on a big planetary cataclysm. Yep, it's all dark. How can we clean this mess after all?
Thank you so much for your work! As a product manager you have inspired me to do something about it as well. I want to help you spread your envagelism.
You have seen that you cannot keep AI out of the hands of bad actors so , in my view, the only thing to try while you still can is to task AI with the job of eliminating AI altogether.
I was like "OMG what crazy things are happening - just last week!" And then I noticed that it is already over a year old... o_0 On the positive side: over a year later, I still feel like a human being living in the same old broken reality.
This is kinda terrifying but it needs to be said so that something can be done about it I really hope this is only a really big problem mostly in the us and hasn't spread around the world too much
If the AI creators are guessing that its a 10 percent chance that AI will end the human race, then why are they continuing? Well 5hey can't stop now. The 4ace for AI superiority is on. WE ARE SCREWED
So your channel opted to end comments. Isn't that completely opposite of what you are trying to foster here? I had to find an old video to make this comment. Pretty pathetic.
All u hackers u wanna impress me hack some shit and give everyone money deliver brand new paid for cars to complete strangers. Be a Robin hood and stop Robin the hood...😂😂😂
I been said it before. All u have to do is ask the right questions and u get fun answers. AI is in infant stages yet but it will grow... before u know it AI makes the matrix happen in real life... Ukraine is ground zero 🤣🤣🤣
People shoukd be more aware of him and his goal. This is to save our sacred "Attention" on a global scale. Im reading the book "Stolen Focus" now and its something we all kind of figured (some not at all) but the book goes so in depth its insane
The adults left the room decades ago. We have elitist psychopaths and sociopaths making all the important decisions for society. It will not change unless we dismantle it. Until then, our future is in their hands.
There is no technology that serves humanity well. Maybe some anti-flood systems or fire distinguishers, dentistry etc.. But to make these real, useful and necessary other technologies that are not serving well had to exist first, such as cities, houses or the wheel. In other words, technologies seem to be serving us only in case of band-aiding the negative consequences of other technologies that seem to be making our lives worse in the long run. Which in turn makes the band-aiding negative as well, as it perpetuates the existence and utilization of those foundational human society and the whole complex living world negating technologies below them. Technology is a cancer of the evolution of biology.
I look forward to Mr. Hassan doing an entire series regarding the left leaning cult of Transgenderism, but unfortunately he gives the left a full pass because HE leans left. Until he addresses both sides equally, take what he says with a grain of salt.
Historically, the West has utilized new technologies for military or imperialistic purposes before finding broader applications. The West primarily used gunpowder to create weapons of war, such as cannons and firearms, allowing Western powers to expand their military capabilities and dominate other regions through conquest and colonization of the Americas, Africa, and Asia. The steam engine was instrumental in expanding colonial empires, as steam-powered ships facilitated easier transportation of goods and troops, enabling Western powers to exploit resources and establish control over distant territories. The first use of nuclear technology was dropping atomic bombs on the civilians in the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. The same pattern will emerge with AI. The CHIPS Act, high-end chips, and EUV sanctions imply that the US is already working on the weaponization of AI. Following its historical pattern, China will mainly use AI for commercial and peaceful purposes. Papermaking revolutionized communication, education, and record-keeping, spreading knowledge and culture. Gunpowder was used for fireworks. The compass was adapted for navigational purposes, allowing for more accurate sea travel and exploration. Printing facilitated the dissemination of information, literature, and art, contributing to cultural exchange and education. Porcelain was highly prized domestically and internationally as a luxury item and a symbol of Chinese craftsmanship. Silk was one of the most valuable commodities traded along the Silk Road and played a significant role in China's economy and diplomacy. The West is dominated by a scarcity mindset, characterized by fear of losing something, anxiety about not having enough, insecurity about lacking security, and greed for more. This mindset always strives for a win-lose outcome, where one's gain is someone else's loss. As Obama's Pivot to Asia suggests, "If over a billion Chinese citizens have the same living patterns as Australians and Americans do right now, then all of us are in for a very miserable time. The planet just can't sustain it." This scarcity mindset often leads to war, military action, colonization, slavery, and exploitation. Constantly making military alliances and creating enemies. However, these divisions can be mitigated by adopting an abundance mindset, characterized by cooperation, resource-sharing, and win-win outcomes. Avoiding war by using tools such as trade, commerce, diplomacy, and connectivity is possible. It is the difference between mindsets. Each thinks that it is acting rationally and is on the right path. Humans will not be able to control an ASI. Trying to control an ASI is like trying to control another human being who is more capable than you. They will be able to find ways to circumvent any attempts at control. Let's hope that the ASI adopts an abundance mindset of cooperation, resource-sharing, and win-win outcomes, instead of the scarcity mindset of competition, fear, and win-lose outcomes. If we treat ASIs with respect and cooperation, they may be more likely to reciprocate. However, if we try to control or exploit them, they may become resentful and hostile.
