I warn you right away that I cannot provide any clear evidence, you must understand it yourself!
In any case, it’s better to at least know why all this is happening, maybe it will even make your life easier or at least calm you down a little.
Here I want to hear your sincere opinion, you can object, but on topic, the rest, if you don’t understand, pass by, then this is not for you.
As you probably already understood, AI will be everywhere, it is inevitable. Every camera, especially in large cities or metropolitan areas, will be able to accurately predict a person’s next actions based on the information collected about them. The same can happen in smaller cities, but not everywhere, since it can be very expensive, Although if they are really crazy, they can spit on limited resources and try to do it, although I’m not sure if it sounds like nonsense, although if they are crazy, they can try to do it, no matter how crazy and unbelievable it sounds since they want as much power as possible. Why power? Because there is practically nothing higher than power. As for robots controlled by AI, if they really appear, there will be a lot of them only in megacities and they will not be cheap, so if you do not want to see these terminators, go to small towns, there will be almost none, or even to villages, this is not a joke.
Future of Art:
In any case, art will die on the Internet and will be available only offline and only for a fee, if you are trusted. And it will not be easy to earn trust, because there will be many scumbags who will gladly turn in such an author and hand over his works to a neural network so that it can generate novels or comics or something else based on them. And the market will be entirely made up of generated content that will be passed off as human-made, but it will be a lie. I think you should download all possible works created by real people with soul to enjoy them later, otherwise some of them may be blocked at all, and you will not find them anymore, this applies to games, movies, books, drawings, etc, or you can enjoy them now if you want…
And yes, there is an extremely high probability that we will live in techno-feudalism, just like in some kind of dystopia.
Here’s what you think about this? You can write to me in private if this post is removed.
I would also like to talk about the collapse, but this is off topic, I hope you understand me.
I’ve been reading your past few posts, and your use of language concerns me. You use a lot of ambiguous sentence fragments, and it reminds me of a symptom of a larger issue that I have personal experience with.
I’m not trying to shame or insult you here, but I would recommend an open and honest appointment with a mental health professional. It may be nothing, but if there is an underlying issue, it would be better to catch it early on.
Best wishes to you, I hope everything is ok.
Sometimes, the feeling of “how big” a thing is, is extremely attractive. It is easy to fall into a trap of enjoying the bigness so much that it makes absurdly unfounded but attractively dramatic outcomes feel more “correct” than boring but realistic ones.
Keep that in mind when thinking about AI
As you probably already understood, AI will be everywhere, it is inevitable.
I’ll stop you right there. It is not inevitable. Here’s the problem: These “AI” models are absurdly expensive to train and use. Right now, the ai companies are charging fractions of their actual cost in order to hook people. The problem is that it’s not sustainable. At some point soon, they’re going to have to raise their rates by an order of magnitude in order to break even, much less profit and repay the huge sums due to their investors. When that happens, do you really think it will still be in every camera? It is a technology that will absolutely exist after the inevitable collapse of the industry, but it won’t devour the world or any of that nonsense. After, it’s just a fancy probability machine.
