While the hydrogen bomb's inventors feared how it could be used to devastate human populations, an H-Bomb is a very crude tool. I.E. it is hard to limit its targeting, you get a lot of indiscriminate death.

AI is a tool that will destroy the entirety of society. By causing a rot from within. It will allow those who deploy it to sow dissent where ever desired using the target's own minds against them. It will allow the perpetrators of evil to specifically target individual people with individualized attacks. Such as, looking at Robert's social media accounts AI can deduce that Robert is a believer in XYZ.

AI will know that believers in XYZ are easily manipulated by messages touting a certain flavor of perhaps politics. AI can go person by person to turn us all against each other. For at that point in time the truly smart among us will realize that nothing we see or hear beyond the human standing directly in front of us can be trusted. Those who are not as wise will simply be fooled.

AI will erode the goodwill and trust we depend upon to maintain order within society.

I am afraid the only escape will be to go back to perhaps 1950s levels of technology.

In the case of Apple, modifying the app to their liking prior to distributing on the store to the end user?

Sounds like the pot calling the kettle black.

It's fucked.

Pornography and Scammers

Not so much the first, but the second, scammers, will utilize AI so much that they will ultimately make legitimate usages of the tech be put under so much scrutiny as to render it useless. Basically I am saying there will be so many AI scams that people will by necessity cast a doubt on anything they see or hear.

I'll never set foot in the shit hole any way. Or any other shit hole, where people, who I have no desire to be around, have packed themselves so tightly as to require abandonment of entire swathes of the human experience.

So, go ahead and hari-kari your own self, just leave me out of it.

The minimum wage is not $7.25, anywhere.

When the targets of this technology will simply move to technologies not controlled by big tech.

Funny how when you put the squeeze on the free flow of information it tends to leak out from a direction you were not expecting..... Google, Microsoft, Apple honestly are stupid enough to think they are the Gatekeepers. They are minding gates where the sheep pass, not where the wolves roam free.

nuclear, a battery. . .

What could go wrong?

It cannot be but just a short matter of time before the exploding boa population in FL extends to the tundra of Alaska. Thus, correcting this insidious imbalance and returning the world to perfect harmony.

Just move a few miles down the road. Problem solved. So many people just want to hear themselves cry.
