    Ooh, scary once again. First, let me give you some credit and take the description for face value: How is this omnipotent system going to be created? By humans who err? By current LLMs which dream up names of libraries and functions? And most importantly, how is it going to become capable of manipulating “anyone to do anything” when even “I” do not always know what it is going to take for me to do some arbitrary X, and this is true for almost all humans, save sages/buddhas etc (can’t deny they are possible, so count them as existing)?

    Your proposed threat looks like a conspiracy theory. Some of them have proven to be actually true, and this is no reason to believe anything

    Oh, that I can, and thank you for your message, really. With that said, here is the differences: cars did work as a transport, and AI as it is marketed (magic replacer of all) does not, and even in the narrow use case of programming - no, it does not. It can produce heaps of lines of code, it cannot do the work of building a reliable software that does what is required of it. It has also failed to replace artists. So no, I am not afraid

    And here I thought to have heard the funniest joke you can make. Farming. With current climate change dynamics. If I could do that, I would rather do something funnier, like bets.

    And about who would be where: if Lemmy still stands ten years after, chances are I will be here too. But I feel safe to count on “bubble has burst, it’s in the news. How ya feel there” within a few years. Will ping you for sure

    Oh no, we can’t even exactly end life on the globe (but significantly fuck things up - yeah). And humanity going over this “man/woman is supposed to X/Y/Z” bullshit also means humanity being more mature. Question is, do we get there before some idiot does put everyone in the ground. Can’t say I am sure we will

    Because anything else will bring destruction in varying types and magnitudes, from “guess I didn’t get to live a happy life” at 80+ to “these maniacs have devasted half the globe for hundreds of years” and more

    Both are dumb as fuck. Hint: if you have only some wood and no instruments to work on it save a saw and a hammer, you are not going to make a car with internal combustion engine

    Now watch the history of dumb fucks trying to make a “good” society with people who have no idea why exploiting others is not good
