The alarmism around AI is just a marketing spin.
As @pluralistic@mamot.fr wrote: that’s “mystical nonsense about spontaneous consciousness arising from applied statistics”.
Real problems we face with AI are:
Ghost labor, erosion of the rights of artists, costs of automation, the climate impact of data-centers and the human impact of biased, opaque, incompetent and unfit algorithmic systems.
Yeah that’s what I’m saying, we’re turn the planet into big numbers in bank accounts. https://www.antipope.org/charlie/blog-static/2018/01/dude-you-broke-the-future.html
