Are we caught in a snowball effect, already? It's very foolish/irresponsible, for sure, though I'm wondering how realistic it is to try and temper its development now - as long as we know more is to be found out there, I don't think it's in our nature to resist going after it. Most likely a bad thing for us.
we’re kind of almost already there.
I was thinking about that, too! It's definitely a time where only the truly attentive critical thinkers among us will still have a chance at survival and freedom.
I don’t think there’s any chance that those who’re working on it will turn back now. Some argue it’s already been achieved at OpenAI.
I agree! Mental slavery will be so much more widespread in the near-future. There’s also a huge risk that we’ll go too far in the other direction and just won’t believe anything. Great freedom in balance there is, young Jedi! (My best Yoda impression 😊)
