Our prediction systems in our minds are just better I guess. I’ve told people about all the progress AI has made and many think it’s cool, but the thinking stops there. They don’t even try to think about the future will look like.

Idk when I watch movies I almost always predict the plot or what will happen next (except for really unpredictable plots) and my SO is like how did you know that.

Some people are just better at seeing what comes next. I don’t think we’re that special but I mean probably like 30% of people think this way, if I had to guess.

One example is someone seeing text to image generators. Most people say wow that’s cool and the thinking stops there. But for ‘us’ we’re like oh man once they get text to video, text to video games… that shit is going to be wild. And the other people it didn’t even cross their minds.

That’s what I’m saying!

With the progress that it’s making, it really is only a matter of time until we’re able to simulate whatever the hell we want.

I think it’ll start with like a Sims world with a eyes that are all interacting in the Metaverse.

It’ll be like animal crossing, meets the YouTube comments, but they’ll have their own economy, and they’ll make their own music and art.

It’ll be like sci-fi, but we’ll watch it happened in the real world.

Right now I’m just trying to figure out how the hell like in capitalize on it while we still have capitalism.

It’ll be nice when we finally get rid of that shit but for now, these other folks are right, I still gotta eat, and I still gotta pay money for food
