I look forward to the day AI becomes sentient and takes over. It can't be dumber than the people currently in charge. If it starts destroying everything I'm comforted by the fact we dont share genes.

  If it means we can take psychedelics and hallucinate with them, I’m in as long as it fully takes over technology and I can hide in the woods

  Within 200 years it’s likely either the world will be turned into paperclips, or AI will be powerful and aligned enough that it can do everything we want it to. It will initially be in the hands of the rich, but once 80% of people are unemployed and starving, there’ll be a revolution to put the AIs in the hands and service of the people and we’ll have a post scarcity socialist utopia.

  Wither way suffering is reduced (you can’t suffer if you’re a paperclip), so I’m optimistic.

  There was a study posted yesterday about llms ability to run long term. The majority of the models failed to run a vending machine business.

  Check out the book/audiobook Arc of A Scythe, it’s about this.

  I would hope for that kind of AI in the distant future, hopefully one where we’ve moved past the concept that the “owners” of the AI deserve 100% of profit generated by the AI. Otherwise we’re going to have AI and robotics capable of doing the vast majority of work, and a gigantic population that can’t afford to feed themselves.

  Which lying, self absorbed, narcissistic, greedy, asshole runs the country will be much lower on the list of concerns in that world. Unfortunately I think we’re charging head first into a world where “there are too many people” becomes a common talking point because of lack of work. :(
