The YouTube extension gets a brainy upgrade.

Looking forward to buying the robot I can send to the movie theater to watch the AI-generated movie for me and come back and tell me what happened.

    Soon enough, the AI will be able to kill us and live our lives for us.

        Then it’ll make meat bots to do all the dreadful stuff and the cycle will begin anew

        There’s a good chance if it’s really intelligent it will act to enhance our suffering. Like we do to lesser intelligent beings for some reason

          If that somehow insures it’s success I suppose. But if it ends up with the kind of intelligence that humans have developed—heavily influenced by survival and evolutionary traits, it’ll do whatever is best for its survival. It might need us to stay happy and keep feeding it data, or decide we’re the most efficient labor for robot repair or power generation or whatever.

          Then AI could want to keep us like we keep working dogs, or even just pet dogs if we’re lucky(and cute enough).

            You have to remember we evolved as meat sacks full of chemicals. As in we have rich sensory input and chemical signals that give us powerful emotions. An ai is just a neural net made of silicon, it doesn’t get a boost in serotonin or a lift in dopamine to motivate it. You can program it to act like it feels but without the chemicals and pathways to support these feelings who knows what we’ll get. Add on top the ability for it to tweak and write its own code and there’s a lot of possible outcomes other than good ones.

              Oh for sure. It won’t have to worry about its gut bacteria making it angry and irrational when it hasn’t had a snack in 7 hours.

              Maybe it’ll get tied up constantly fighting competing AIs for survival if they are allowed to interconnect. Then we might get overlooked while it’s busy with its own shit.
