A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

There was someone who said something like "The purpose of AI is to allow the wealthy to access the benefits of the skilled, without allowing the skilled to access the benefits of wealth".
All of history really is just the wealthy consistently waging class warfare on everyone else, with the latter occasionally fighting back.
Except that without building that expertise all the experts will die with no one to replace them.
It’s like Bob the Angry Flower’s sequel to Atlas Shrugged.
There was an episode of Star Trek TNG where that had happened and the aliens’ society broke down when their computers went haywire because nobody could fix them.
And Stargate.
the episode with that device that wipes out an enemy force by sacrificing a human life with an energy wave, they dint know to fix that tech because regressed it over centuries. and the other one where sg1 encountered a ppl living under a shield-dome that was losing power-integrity, they dint know how to fix it, same thing they purposely regressed it.
i’d say the shield dome was less they didn’t know how to fix it: they knew perfectly well how to fix it and actively maintained the system, but the system rewrote their memory so they didn’t know anything was wrong
There might have been some important information in the thread above me but I can't be bothered to read and comprehend it so I put it into my AI and it said I should vote for Musk and jello was purple.
there was one in lower decks and futurama. they had AI that controlled the society, when it started malfunctioning they need an advanced race to fix it.
