Taking into context your nature here, which based on what you've said to me previously is to show others more faith, i am assuming that this is not a fear-based post.
The replacement of humans by machines started since the industrial revolution. It has only made our lives better. So i'm not sure what your point is here? People will be jobless? Not really. People are resilient and in most cases will be retrained.
Also, i am no ruling out that AI will become sentient. That's why i said that when it does, it will be the equivalent of the atomic bomb in terms of discoveries.
For now enjoy your false technical terms which you want to be technical about.
No, this not a fear based post, it is a Bible is true and being fulfilled right before your eyes post.
The beast system is rising out of the sea, no one is going to stop it, no one other than Jesus that is. The honor of destroying this system is His.
People need to realize that the things we see in public are 25 years behind what they have in private. So if you have "ChatGPT" free for all, they have had that for 25 years. The reason they roll it out now is for a variety of reasons.
1. They want to prepare the people for AI
2. They are going to short circuit education, every kid will use ChatGPT for their homework, all the teachers will use it to grade papers, and in a short order it will be the arbiter of truth. People will not have critical thinking skills and they will just treat whatever the AI tells them is true as the "gospel truth".
3. They are collecting data to train AI.
The real question is where will AI be in 25 years because that is the best estimate of what the US government, Israel government and others have right now.
This is more than a guess. 9/11 was done to completely overhaul the military with drones, robots, etc and the data they were getting trained their AI. That means they had already passed the research and development stage in 2001. Initially they trained the robots and drones to identify target individuals. Recently they have given it data to identify all individuals.
The distinction between sentient and non sentient is who is serving who. Do people control the AI or does AI control the people. This thinking has a blind spot. To me the question is which people are controlling AI today? Are they psychopaths? Why do corporations behave like psychopaths? Simply because their goals are all measured in dollars and cents. They calculate the cost of selling a defective product knowing it will kill people, but they determine the cost benefit of releasing it anyway outweighs the liability. This is how these machines that perform various tasks operate. It will be Machiavellian.
No one has the ability to prevent them from being psychopaths. Just like the self checkout kiosk, they do a cost benefit analysis, and then buy them. Some people will lose their jobs, but for most they won't get hired or their hours will be reduced. They will go from full time employees with benefits to part time without. They will quit on their own and then be replaced with more machines. The company does not feel any obligation to their employees, no empathy, simple calculation of which is most profitable and that is why it will act like a psychopath.
