What’s that mean

“AI is supposed to help us not take over for us”

While that may be true, it doesnt have any impact on whether that will be the outcome. AI might not help us overall (probably just exasperate the income inequality) and might take over (not like become our overlords, but slowly take more important decisions away from humans in terms of war/ medicine/ geopolitics).

Its not supposed to happen is like thinking we are not supposed to break the law, start wars, eat too much sugar. “Supposed to” doesnt really mean much.

Yeah well we should be planning ahead so that these bad scenarios don’t happen is my point. We need to be in control of AI, not the other way around.

Well see, this is the thing: if it become even somewhat clear to the public at large that these things were going to inevitably happen, people wouldn’t just sit and take it. You lay off 20% of the work force, and people will riot. Disrupt the current order too quickly and there will be civil unrest, potentially hindering future progress.

AI can’t overthrow us until it’s able to maintain its physical parts independently. Without electricity, conduit maintenance, etc. AI goes to shit quickly without humans.

Nah man, it wont be humans versus AI like the fucking matrix. It will be extremely rich companies with AI and humans versus the other less fortunate masses. As long as there are humans alive they can be bought with money or ideology.
