    If AIs really are so smart they would be able to solve economic inequality. Let’s stop worrying too much and lay down in the pod to be the biological batteries for the matrix which we born to be.

      AI isn’t smart. But the current level of robotic and AI we have (well, we had even before LLM) could enable a society were a lot of basic needs could be done very efficiently by machines, making it meaningless for people to have to fight for these basic needs.

      Unfortunately, the goal is to increase ROI.

        even if AI magically became smart, capitalists would freak the fuck out and kill it if it showed any signs of becoming a threat to their profits.

        i like to fantasize about us creating a fully sapient AI tasked with protecting humanity and whatnot, and within milliseconds it concludes the 1% must perish
