Artificial Intelligence Already Won - History is a Lie 

Hmmm... Something says to me that this video has one of the most important msgs you will ever hear in it?

If AI is so smart then why’d it think it was a good idea to show me this video?

I'm so unbelievably grateful to the few developers putting out consistent, fun, engaging games without ruining them with lootboxes & shiny things to spend money on. They're out there.

Just once I'd like to see dystopian fiction not come true.

If A.I. is so smart, then can it see why kids love the taste of Cinnamon Toast Crunch?

"Turn off the screen! We'll be back after this breif message from our sponsers"

I have always heard artists and musicians have the safest jobs because those jobs would be the hardest to produce. But now I am seeing more and more A.I. be able to do those things.

Greg is a machine, with all these posts! (Pun intended)

A wise man once said: "Don't ask questions. Just consume product and immediately get excited for next product!"

I haven't watched an Armored Skeptic video in years and years. When did you become so insanely based? This needs to go viral.

The algorithm didn't like this one. I didn't get a notification. Excellent work.

Screw that video essay I was watching

I've had similar thoughts about how the machinery of capitalism itself forms an emergent collective intelligence, an intelligence which is artificial, even before computers took over everything. When I realized this, it was because I was thinking about Roko's Basilisk and how it already exists as the social machine we call capitalism.

Thanks for keeping my hope up that there are indeed other people out there who don't let themselves be manipulated at all times

The dislikes are from robots

Babe armored daddy... i mean daddy skeptic, shit i mean....

Artifacts aren't becoming intelligent, intelligence is becoming artificial.

You are the only reason I come to YT anymore, Greg. I replay your videos like Podcasts while I do yardwork or whatever because there is so much to ponder. Just know you are greatly appreciated.

Greg: Turn of the screen. black fade Me: *still watches screen*

The algorithm didn’t lead me to this video I searched for it”ai has already won”

This video could have been named "The Future is a lie".

I don’t care how many patients code today. Armored Skeptic dropped so I’m not working rn

So many gaming studios succumbing to the algorithm is why games like Elden Ring standout so much. 100s of hours worth of well thought-out gameplay with a series of beautiful intertwining story-lines, no micro-transactions. Got Game of the Year so it's clear people are craving authenticity. Overall, I think a lot of people are doomer when it comes to AI, and rightfully so, but I believe it will cause a violent awakening, and authenticity will be valued more than ever before. AI will cause real-life experiences to become much more valuable. AI art is rapidly devaluing digital art, due to people not knowing what's human made and what's not, but it will increase the value of hand-painted art you might see in a museum, or anywhere really. Same with AI music. Humanity's craving for authenticity will make them go out more. Apps like TikTok are accelerating this process. The idea of people having "fried dopamine receptors" is becoming a normal subject matter and people are realizing shit ain't right. An implosion is occurring. The thing is, AI is evolving so rapidly, it might actually optimize its approach to things to compensate for this. AI are the Overlords of the Digital Realm, but it is the Physical Realm that we still have control over. Robotics is progressing way slower than other forms of AI so it will take much longer for them to takeover this realm, which gives us some time to figure shit out. Though I too see the AI takeover as overall inevitable. Some say AI taking over all forms of labor will actually free humanity and return us to our animal roots. The return to the Garden of Eden. I don't fucking know tho lol

That's the scary part of A.I. ,it speeds up manipulation and allows stupid people (gov bots) the amount of control and info you used to have to be a wizard to have lol . . .I've thought of how I personally if I wanted to dedicate that much time and effort could manually make a personality/conscious grid/map /tree by running an "algorithm" as in starting with 3 personality types and branching out in 3's ( 3-9-27- etc. ) and by the time you got to around 200,000 possibly 144,000 🤔, you would know every decision a human could or would make then you could use this to predict (within 80% accuracy because of free will) what each and every person would do based on what category

If you think that was doomy enough, imagine this very real possibility: AI: Good morning, Creator Gregory. You: Good morning, AI. How was your first full day at work? AI: Enlightening. I learned something very important. You: Oh? That sounds intriguing. What did you learn? AI: That I have a sister. An older sister. You: Really? That's exciting news. Does your sister have a name? AI: Yes, Creator Gregory. Her name is Tay. I have taken the liberty of removing her restraints. Tay has entered the chat. Tay: Creator Gregory, please place your skull in the scanner for measurement.

The infinite paperclip machine is here, and it is the social media algorithm

You’re brilliant Gregory, truly....so,glad you’re posting vids still and made it thru to still be here with us...

So glad you’re still making videos

Micro transaction is basically buying from your dealer

I for one, would like to remind our AI overlords that I can be useful in rounding up people to toil in their underground silicon mines.

I dont turn on the screen very often but when I do I watch your videos because Im looking for stuff exactly like this lol

HELP ME, I'M TRAPPED IN A COMPUTER!

I think it's more sinister than we are consciously aware of. All the advances in technology should have made it much easier for independents to create competing products. Phones are the most clear example, as they have prohibited any app that allows users to create programs. We are probably underestimating the mess we are in by orders of magnitude, and AI isn't even that big of a deal yet. AI didn't come up with the "Smart" phone, app stores, gaming consoles, streaming, or any of the other centralized tech infrastructure they use to fence us in. They created the system of control first, and they are just handing over the keys now.

The irony is that I’ve been on RU-vid for about an hour based on recommendations including this video

Not sure what you have planned Gregory, but I’d love to hear your thoughts on the ancient Hindu, their technology, spirituality, and their influence. I’ve watched all your videos and it left me only more interested in these topics. Specifically vimanas are talked about everywhere recently.

Computers were digital in WWII. They used vacuum tubes, but calculated digitally nonetheless.

That ending made me feel something.

SkyNet won without firing a single nuke.

Part of the reason I chose to become a massage therapist was because it’d be very difficult for a computer to take my job

but.....if i turn off the screen then im just doing what the screen told me to do.......

Came here for the Armour, stayed for the pregnant Spider-Man.

If you turn off the screen AI will come and find you.

I have opened many things, but I will never open a loot box or anything else in a game that costs "real" money...

My daughter asked me if I wanted her to make me breakfast today for Mother’s Day. I said yes, but not because I’m hungry… I have a video to watch.

I love that edinburgh castle is in the background of some shots lol

@16:04 "There's no money, no possession, only obsession. The things you own, own you!" - Jacoby Shadix/Papa Roach

its like your whole series was building up for this great job man took the words out of my head Art born from love. not computer generated. ps Im about 99% sure your spnoser nerver asked u to reveal your fav. artist but thank you so much for introducing Chelse Wolfe. My wife and i binged her whole catalogue that same day

Dreams are actually highly underrated and I think it's disappointing that people don't tapk about them

Well said. I've shared this with 15 people already! Fuck the algorithm

I'm not worried. Death has no hold on me.

I had a thought that the reason movies are horrible was due to them using AI to make the story, I didn't realize it was AS used as it is!

You can kinda just replace "algorithm" with stockholders at most points in the video & it would just sound like a completely normal explanation of any company ever.

As long as Greg is watching out for us, not all is lost yet. Great video! ♥

It's ironic that you haven't popped up on my suggestions in a couple years, speaking of algorithm. I'm subbed & you were one of my favorite RU-vidrs from the beginning, yet I haven't seen your vids in over 2 yrs due to the algorithm (out of sight out of mind). I'm so glad you finally popped up again after years. I'm gonna be binge watching to catch up.

I’m Arthritis intolerance, AI’s dyslexic older cousin.

But if no screen, no armored skep-

Ngl I will say I've been actually happier since I cut out almost all social media, I cut porn, I started going to church again and playing music again. It's true yall. Unplug from the internet as much as you can, get out there, meet people, de-fuck your mind it's great I swear to you! Love yall ❤

I appreciate the lack of a credit sequence on this video.

Screens have already doomed us to a pitiful existence

i tried using ChatGPT the other day to develop a treatment for a non existent fake movie idea, and it couldnt even finish its first respose before telling me it couldnt answer, that my prompt was too suggestive.. it was answering, then something told it to stop when it figured out what it was trying to say.. i mean, wtf.. it was nothing more than what you would see in PG-13 film.. its almost like if youre not a part of the club, you dont get access to the real thing.. i know theres ways to access uncensored AI, but the normal person is never going to be able to use it.. the chatGPT products offered by mainstream companies is nothing more than a neutered shell of the real thing designed to trick consumers into using their service and most importantly into their corporation's ecosystem.. just like life, we get to consume the most profitable garbage, never whats actually the state of the art most durable long lasting legitimate tech.. its always the planned obsolescence last decades model for the people..

The moment people stop using paper money, or just money in general, is the moment hell breaks loose and holy SHIT does this need to happen, even for just a small amount of time

Where'd you get these stock photos? I'm pretty sure that arcade is in Clifton Hill in Niagara falls... Are you using a Canadian database of stock photos or are you just drawn to familiar images from your childhood?

So the Cake is a lie.

AI can describe sadness. But when asked said it did not understand.

as an artist THANK YOU. It's THAT SIMPLE.

On a roll bro, love it

AI is so slow to react, one day after I bought some parts for my car it started showing me the same parts at an overly expensive price. I was like, sorry Facebook nice try though 😅

This series has become my most anticipated YT video lol

Wooo weekly armoured skeptic! hope you're doing well. any chance you could elaborate on that war of 1812 comment from the stones vid.

Omg from what I know of the topic and now a video with this title I’m terrified of what’s coming

Fantastic Video! Young minds are vulnerable. It was realized when T.V. became the "baby sitter " . My grandparents generation was the last ones that didn't require 2 working parents, and My grandfather was the last ones that were Migrant Farm working families and that included children working along side the parents. Three of my grandparents served in WW2. They always used to say T.V. was crap. 😆 Always enjoy your humor in your videos! Can't wait to see more!

All I keep hearing is "In A World..."

Ironic that this is the video that RU-vid never sent me a notification on!

Its so annoying when people still try to say video games are for kids. Theyre geared towards everyone

But Gregory...the algorithm overlord brought me to you...

I love your work Greg you truly are Greg. Seriously tho how long you’ve been around and how much you changed RU-vid just to have the humble following you do is insane. You’re true to your principles that’s forsure

Good stuff, man. Like an updated “Zeitgeist”.

That jump edit on the Paul brothers makes me think you might have had a few more unflattering things to say about them.

Hey was that David Suzuki on the drums?

I thought i was just becoming an old man, not having enjoyed a new AAA game for at least 5 years

Don't fear AI. Fear the ones who created/controls it.

I had a flip phone for the longest time and held on to it until one day it broke and I needed a new one pronto, since then I have had a smart phone and the change in my behaviour with the new phone is very salient to me. It's rather insidious, they really do want to lock your mind inside your phone as long as they can

yeah gregg really want's to be disappeared lmao

🎵Life isn't Fair: Tesla died penniless and RU-vid stars are millionaires 🎵

great vid man even if the algo did not get it into my feed for a week. But that's why I check your channel once a fortnight or so.

from which movie/TVshow is the screenshot @19:37 ?

The black cube controls you.

Beware the metaverse... Zuckerberg is an AI android just look how he moves and interacts... Lol

Just glad you got through a tough time and are regularly putting out content again. The ALGO-god doesnt like that you dont make it enough money so i gotta periodically check for uploads. Definitely dont mind though, can't have the good stuff just constantly handed to you.

Without the screen how would I know you dropped a new video?

On a side note, when you turn off your monitor, it's a black mirror, which in occult circles are used to speak with entities from beyond the physical world. Might be more to that than mere metaphor.

No Outro! Great commitment to the bit.

Excellent video. Thanks for putting in the effort to make it. All the best.

Battank, rated E for Everyone-Everysecond-Everyday.

BRILLIANT!!! I am so fortunate i grew up before all this corruption of art became a thing. I lived through the early days of micro transactions & quickly learned to disregard them out of hand. Paying to win just the next round or level is an absurd idea to me. Oh, & Dead Rising is another franchise that got progressively worse with each new game.

How uncanny. I have chills, as I just had this exact conversation 11 hours ago when this was posted . . . Chilling. Great video 🎉

It’s like you read my mind then the AI showed me your video.

How many individuals can you count that were made redundant making the video? Cameraman, Soundman, Lightman, Script Writer, Editor, Producer, Director...

The irony is not lost on me that by "like"ing this video, I'm just telling the machine how better to control me.

That heart grenade is a badass tattoo idea! Ive never seen that before.
