How long before an AI hallucination sends someone to the gulag?
I’m sure that’s just an unexpected bonus of this tech.

Who cares, right?? The important thing is that someone goes to the gulag!
Does this need an /s?
Why go through the trouble of forging evidence yourself when you can have the computer do it for you?
I remember how horrified my mum was around 2005 when we started using social media because she thought that what we posted on it would get turned against us.
20 years later and she's not looking like such a paranoid old fruitcake.
I have the feeling the same will happen with jobs and AI. "Nothing is really changing" right now, but people are always so short sighted. 15-20 years is about the time it takes for knowledge to become normalized and accepted.
For example, some scientists suggested dinosaurs had feathers and they had to argue the evidence for over a decade to get the theory outside of crazy territory; then, another decade for the public at large to accept and adopt the info.
Similar timelines for people ringing bells about plastic contamination, pollution, climate change, pretty much anything. We as a species are really good at embracing short term gains and really bad at considering long term consequences.
And all the Ai fanboys hurrying this shit along can go fuck themselves.

Surprised pikachu face
Kinda makes me wonder if they're looking into our IP addresses when we post here...
The way I figure, if we can think it, so can they, we know any opportunity to make money will be taken advantage of so just presume yes to questions like this
