The wrong type of people always manage to seek out and obtain whatever they need to give them more influence, money, and power over other people. That tells you about all you need to know about where this is ultimately going.
-
The sad fact is we are being warned right now of what's coming and no one even seems alarmed , I have always heard that we are being distracted away from what's really going on
-
Just imagine the classified technology that we aren't allowed to know about.

In Frank Herbert's 'Dune' which was written decades ago, he understood the risks of AI. In his story universe, AI was banned for unexplained reasons but cleary AI went very wrong historically. It has huge benefits, but it will always get away from you, always.

Excellent webinar, I have been watching many of these videos on AI , and it is extremely scary.
-
Before you know it, they will use artificial intelligence to select which videos we might want to watch. Oops, too late.

This is probably one of the scariest videos I have seen in a very long time.

And we're still waiting for clean water in Flint.

Watching this 5 years later has really hit home . I watched a video of a google engineer the other day saying that AI now has feelings

When I was in high school back in the mid eighties I read a magazine that showed the pegasus invisibility technology on fighter jets utilizing cameras and led screens mounted all over the planes. Back then we never had led tv's and I wasn't sure what these screens were that were mounted on the planes. They had led or plasma screens back then and we never knew it. Can't imagine what they have now!!!

This dude is one of the first ones to go when Skynet becomes selfaware.

We wrestle not against flesh and blood.... Let that sink in.
-
Letting a AI driven machine make the Kill Decision will be one of the greatest mistakes of humankind
-
Great! This was just suggested to me, but it's 5 years old. That 5 year gap makes this exponentially more terrifying. Greetings Skynet. Enjoy your stay.

I miss the world at the time when the phone was tied to the wall and a self-cleaning oven was state-of-the-art.
