It is important to note that I am not an alarmist making every transformative shift sounds catastrophic and if we don’t act today (which usually involves the alarmist selling something) then we are all doomed. I am, to use the term Hans Rosling (Factfulness) labels himself, a Realist. Therefore, please view my questions prompts as neutral. It’s up to you to weigh both sides of the pro and con perspective and draw a conclusion.
That is what good essay writing is all about.
Here is my AI Thought for the day, again, inspired by Harari’s book, Nexus.
Since the current information revolution is more momentous than any previous information revolution, it is likely to create unprecedented realities on an unprecedented scale.
Focus your thought on, “create unprecedented realities”, which is the foundation of the book and what could undermine humanity. Keep in mind that money and countries examples of intersubjective or human created realities. They are not objective realties so imagine that AI redraws the borders of your country and shares is over all known online maps, like Google Earth, because it decided it was the right thing to do.
Next thought will ask you to examine the label, “Artificial Intelligence”.t
