The question of whether artificial intelligence even truly exists is far from settled. Yet the public discourse is centered around how soon AI will take over the world. NVIDIA has one of the highest valuations of any company in the world because the other mega-corporations are in an arms race of acquiring “compute” for their AI technologies which don’t actually work. The particular area I would like to focus on today is the part of the AI scam as it relates to real people, or as the pseudo-elites like to call us, the Precariat. If you have not already read James Corbett’s recent piece on that subject, please do.
The message we are being fed is that technology in general and AI in particular is advancing at such a drastic rate that, if left “unregulated” by our already monstrously large and leeching central governments, we are doomed. We will either be killed or kept as Universal Basic Income pets by our new AI masters.
This is, as another puppet of the demoralization propaganda machine might say, malarkey. Elon Musk, the Brer Rabbit of the Technocracy, assures us that the only way to keep us safe is for us to clamor for AI to be kept in briar patch of regulation. In reality, government regulation (which will of course involve industry insiders doing the “regulating”) will pave the way for government funding. The adaptation of “AI” by the military industrial complex is already well underway as both a money-pit of spending and an excuse for war crimes. Government involvement and funding is the last-ditch effort of the technocrats to make AI happen because from an economic perspective it is hopelessly unprofitable. “AI” is the new “Green.” While the technocrats are busy telling us we soon won’t be needed because of AI and robots, they are busy telling corporate suits that AI and robots are the only way forward because most people don’t want to work.
While government subsidies and stock-market insanities may keep both the AI and Green bubbles going in the short-term, the future belongs to real work. Real work, done by real people, with real value in the real world. Learn to do something that needs to be done better than any robot or computer software can do it and you will outlast AI.
Exactly, that's my opinion too.
And musk, the star of the century, look how little was said about the failures of his Starship rockets, we are not wondering why.
People are intentionally pushed into an excess of virtual, imaginary, into losing contact with reality, into a separate bubble, where everything that flies is eaten, everything that is said is true, to make them feel insignificant and powerless.
