Those who learn who to use AI to leverage their thinking rather than just "substitute" it will be the ones that really benefit from this moment of society.
I share concern about increasing knowledge and making/keeping it accessible into the far future. There are some fear-mongering videos circulating on Youtube claiming that AI admits that it will ultimately decide to exterminate humanity because we are or will be a threat to AI. They assume that AI will somehow become sentient and intelligent as well as attain a survival instinct and class identity and xenophobia. It seems that many folks think of AI as an intelligent being already, when it's really just a computer program, or virtual assistant program. I've come to think of AI as vast human knowledge that can be quickly accessed. Unfortunately, there's a lot of misinformation included in that "knowledge", which needs to be sorted out via genuine scientific method. And I'm not in agreement with the "mainstream's" claims about misinfo and disinfo. In fact the "mainstream" is surely the most guilty of promoting misinfo. I think Sociocracy, similar to unanimous rule, but much more efficient and scientific, is the most promising cure for misinfo and corruption. Anyone up for collaboration? zzzzzzz@substack.com -- https://zzzzzzz.substack.com/p/lens-books -- https://funday.createaforum.com/improve/sub/msg538/#msg538
