Two-thirds of Americans say AI could do their job::Advanced artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT have sparked fears that the new technology could soon replace many careers, and workers believe it, according to a new survey.
Or the fear of AI advancement will force everyone to believe that they can work for far less than they are now.
AI will have a place in our future but for the foreseeable future, we’ll still need people to do certain things and think of certain things. AI will also be a tool for the wealthy elite and corporations to better manage and manipulate people and forcing everyone to do more for less.
AI is basically the new gunpowder technology … whoever has it and uses it to their best advantage gets to rule the world. And like with the invention of gunpowder, there’s going to be a whole mess of people everywhere that will suffer and die while a small group of people try to figure out how to become the next momentary God King of the world.
But “future” in this case is surely 20 years or longer. People have been working on this since the 1950s, progress is very slow.
I see a tradeoff … capitalists, wealthy elites and corporations only look at the bottom line and profit rather than in advancement of anything … the only advancement they favour is profit at all costs.
What I see is the public’s fear of AI will mean that people will become more willing to work for less. What this will mean is that as people begin to work for less, cheap human semi-slave labour will become more cost efficient than expensive modern AI, AI tools or even AI machines. Think about it … would you rather invest in a few hundred thousand for a dozen people working for dirt low pay … or a few hundred thousand for one machine that will require regular maintenance, us untested, may or may not be reliable and is still in active development.
I think at this point in development the biggest role that AI is playing is that it is putting fear in everyone and the more fear you put into everyone, the easier it is to control and manipulate them.
