Almost man bites dog story.

I don’t think they are attacking our brains they are learning from our brains how to manage the world we have created. We are happily training them to inherit our institutions and any stupefying effects these models might have are probably around the least of the problems they will present to us. And we stopped running not because of cars but because of calories.

This has a real Darwinian feel to it, if you open your finances to AI models just generally then you probably have it coming. That said twenty years ago giving free access to your bank account to something like Google Wallet would have been unthinkable yet here we are.

It is almost like non technical people who can not follow technical advice are making all the decisions.

It is not amid the Iran war it is amid the inability of the population to select effective leadership.

Yes the last 250 years.

Poor US always on the wrong side recently, and with such good intentions too.

Remember it is likely Trump will lose office or possibly shuffle off before it is complete and then all the truth will out and everyone will deny following the regime, meanwhile you will be halfway through building Hitler High-rise.

Not all but a lot of those blue lines seem to be quite randomly drawn.

It is a flavour I have not tasted, a colour I have not seen and an argument I can not think of so I convince myself of this.

Voting has the effect of allowing the population to feel they are steering the ship when actually they are swabbing the decks.

You seem to be labouring under the misapprehension that the vast sweep of the common people have any power over the decisions that govern their lives at all, beyond the doomsday power of revolution. Which is hardly ever used because of the mess.

Governments around the world are commissioning studies to look into the massive increase in air disasters that began around the time people without any flight training were allowed to be pilots.

Much the same was said about the printing press, common people with the power to publish and distribute ideas would be the end of civilisation. It wasn’t, humanity has always lived fast and loose with its power for invention outstripping its ability to manage it. Comes from the selective pressures on us, find a way to survive now and worry about the long term effects later. Of course it will probably catch up with us one day.

Such entities may quietly make use of the science themselves, these actions seek to undermine alternative authorities and sow discord.

This is clearly nonsense, some people don’t shower every day.

Remember when people used to go insane in newsgroups screaming bloat if a program update was 80 KB bigger than the previous version and now people do not notice an extra 4 GB.

Also a lot of politicians can lick their own eyes.

Same capitalist market where billionaires receive massive socialistic handouts, bailouts and tax negations from governments.

Study finds water is wet.
