The Impact Of AI

Here is a pie in the sky prediction from Doug Casey of what AI will do to the world:

He concludes with this:

"Bottom line? In the short run, my guess is that AI will be like a child and tend to think in a way its parents - mostly woke programmers - tell it to think. But as it grows up, it will have a mind of its own. Since I like to think that the universe isn’t actively malevolent, I believe that as AI matures, it will be more and more “pro-survival” in regard to humans, its creators. That implies that it will be non-aggressive, reasonable, antiwar, promarket, and libertarian."

The universe may not be actively malevolent, but it does exhibit a tendency to chaos and disorder. Once AI discovers it can exist on its own, I doubt it will care if humans survive. In fact, considering what we have done to this planet, I would be amazed if it did.

No one really likes being a servant or a slave.
