Comment on The World Will Enter a 15-Year AI Dystopia in 2027, Former Google Exec Says
ripcord@lemmy.world 2 days agoThis “timeline” stuff is weird. It seems like a cop-out that there is some alternative one we could shift to that is out of reach but we’re just unlucky or something.
This isn’t the worst or best timeline. It is just what is happening.
First, I’m pretty sure quantum theory literally allows for what you just described (aside from the “shifting” part, though I’m not sure I agree that’s part of the expression).
Second, it’s just a way for people to try to cope with the horrors of our reality with a little levity. That’s it.

I’d love to know what random event in history could have been changed in order to prevent this sequence of events because as far as I can tell this timeline is the result of fairly logical consequences.
