In this eye-opening talk, he calls on us to learn from the mistakes of social media’s catastrophic rollout and confront the predictable dangers of reckless AI development, offering a “narrow path” where power is matched with responsibility, foresight and wisdom.

    En regardant cette vidéo ensemble, mon petit ami m’a demandé : “Est-ce qu’on peut faire la même chose ?” J’ai ri et j’ai répondu : “Seulement si on ne casse pas le lit !”🧡

    My relationship status is somewhere between “I need a hug” and “I need to be left alone with my snacks.🔥

    AI is replacing jobs. AI is denying insurance claims in seconds. AI is replacing employees at the drive-through. AI is writing songs, giving summaries, making content, reacting to videos, and replacing people. AI is making it harder to sell if something is real or not. AI is already causing chaos.

    The current way we are releasing AI.We’ll never get to utopia.The only thing that we will have is the nightmare of abyss we cannot control, but we’ll control us, Or kill us.

    AI will bring chaos AND abundance. In the same way capitalism brings wealth AND poverty.

    They are not doing it because it is inevitable, they are doing it so they can get rid of employees and make bigger profits

    They are doing that for profit, just like with the pollution, weapons, chemicals, dangerous biotechnology, and so on. The goal is to make fake numbers rise no matter the cost. Why?

    It’s not advancing fast enough and it’s not being released fast enough either. FASTER! With the way humanity is going right now, I’ll take my chances with AI.

    Greed and egomania is running this rollout. AI will have our breakfast and our lunch before we even realize it.
    Robots are being deployed all over the world armed and setup to kill. You can see those all over the web.
    We are not willing to stop climate change, to provide for each other. We are being set up by all those participating knowingly with those who could care less about consequences and are only focused on power and profits.
    Are they dumb enough not to realize, should AI really take over, whatever they thought they would gain or do, wont matter?

    We don’t need generative AI at all.

    Where is the middle ground between the chaos and abundance that AI offers?
    This is a rapidly changing opportunity.
