AI is all the rage.
But with the recent Gemini disaster along with a lack of truly killer applications using AI, it doesn’t seem like AI is really going anywhere.
So, is it all just hype, or what?
Join me for a look at the real danger presented by AI.
Hint: It ain’t SkyNet you need to be worried about!
Let’s rock:

What if an AI was specialized at being a network/graphics/database/kernel/web… developer? When AI specializes at Go (one of the hardest games for computers) they are awesome.
My take on it is that yes, AI can be awesome if it knows the rules. By that I mean it can be great at Go because Go can be broken down into moves, countermoves, optimizing those moves, et voila! It’s great.
But for coding, that’s a bit more complicated. Most of the code we use today that’s actually useful was made because someone thought outside the box and was driven to do something different – and better. There was a time when the idea of a JavaScript-powered spreadsheet like Google Docs would have been considered insane – and it WAS insane.
IOW, you need to be able to precisely define the problem for AI, then let it iterate. Various AIs today do that for sure, but it’s not yet at the point of being ‘awesome’ at things like coding. AFAIK, it can’t yet think ‘outside the box’. Will it get there? I have no idea! But I don’t think it will unless silly humans stop ‘forcing’ it to act like a moron. LOL
Ya Go has such simple rules compared to software development. It’s the sheer number of possible moves that make brute force impossible so it has to “think” like a human. At one point the top go A.I. that could beat the human world champion could be defeated by relatively simple unprofessional attacks that it had never seen during its training.
I sometimes think (like C.R. is saying below) all the hype is prepping us to accept being increasingly ruled/controlled by A.I. instead of by humans. Deliberately giving us the worst possible human choices as our leaders now will later make people think A.I. can’t possibly be any worse.
*We had a previous discussion about ‘A.I.’, and came to agreeance.* *As it is now, A.I. is an advertising/marketing term; many people know nothing about it and are easily deceived, not realizing its not intelligent, its just another very flawed computer program[s]. This A.I. advertising scheme didn’t just happen; its obviously a plan to deceive people into accepting computer programs monitoring every aspect of their lives, even more so than they have already been.* *As for the I.O.T., that has been slowing developing, with more and more things, even toothbrushes, and toilets being connected to ‘the cloud’; and people being spied upon with the camera’s and microphones in their ‘smart’ cars, etc.*
*[I see a future, [if this insanity continues] where all home toilets, and work toilets are connected, and monitoring what comes out of bodies, and who’s body it comes out of, e.g., what drugs they are using, and other ‘health tests’ for disease, lifestyle, and ‘political compliance’.]*
When I used AI for the first time I was thrilled and thought it could easily be my new best friend.. The Allan Savory clip is very interesting particularly because of the recent on going exposure of peer-reviewed fraud churned out by until now unquestionably trusted elite institutes. Things are crumbling its about time
