My calendar app seems to have also “gone to the dark side.” It says next year will be 2027.
When did “easily making an obviously accurate forecast” start being referred to as “going to the dark side?” I just don’t see the connection…
Are the Sith, like, seers of the obvious in some of the expanded lore books?🤔 Maybe in the books the Sith tell people whenever water will continue to be wet, Sarlacc pits will remain dangerous places to practice parkour, and Space will continue to exist?
You can’t (in good faith) claim “AI is the future” is “an obviously accurate forecast” when half of Lemmy is actively trying to dismantle that notion.
Why not? Like babies at a space opera, they can cry all they like about things they can’t comprehend that they wish would go away.
Except they’ll be just as effective as they were at making Bitcoin go away. (Bitcoin still exists, people still use it.)
Also, half is a very conservative estimate. I think hating AI is MUCH more popular on here. It feels like it should be the official Lemmy pastime.
If by “it’ll decay into a pathetic corpse of its former self after destroying things with actual value,” then sure.
But we both know that’s not what you were trying to imply lol
What will decay into a pathetic corpse of it’s former self after destroying things with actual value? The only things I can think of that match that description are the USA in the short-term, and humanity in the long-term.
Hmmm… Maybe you meant to respond to someone else.
Dude, USA affects all of the world already in a very significant way. Western world especially. While the decay of American imperialism is something a lot of us would like to see, it will, in the short term affect everyone negatively. The USA will not go out without a fight. Already, people across the world suffer because of it. It is precisely because of the USA and their economy. Economy, which is undoubtedly, by their own accounts, dominated by the AI tech industry. So, although indirectly, people outside the USA are negatively impacted by the AI. Not to mention direct impact it has (military literally being driven by AI).
Only one disagreement: you’re confusing the technology with it’s use.
A gun isn’t a blindfolded execution
A car isn’t a vehicular manslaughter.
A pool of water isn’t a homicidal drowning.
AI is not what you just described.
