    I can just shake my head and say that humanity won’t make it. We are so obsessed with stealing things from others but making sure our offer is not stolen it’s insane.

    Instead of really working together, which we are in dire need of currently.

      Not all of us. Just a few actually. But not playing fair will always give them an advantage.

        Their advantage is a critical mass of people who aren’t willing to sacrifice their comfort by rocking the boat.

        The people have always had the ability to rise up and form a better system. They just don’t, unless there’s literally no other option.

        And when the people do rise up, the psychopaths just go into hiding until they can worm their way back to the top again. They’re a cancer, and likely our Great Filter

          “They” is you. Stop waiting for someone else to fight. Sacrifice your freedom start a trend.

        It’s always funny to see comments like this, dismissing AI critics by calling them “doomers”, while society as a whole is still dealing with the consequences of the last widespread tech fad: social networks.

            Sorry about that. Let’s call it “another technology specifically designed by large corporations to be extractive and destructive”.

        In case you’re really interested I am alive and well and able to think myself. It’s neither and if you don’t agree that’s absolutely fine by me.

        It’s one of the things I’d live to be proven wrong.

          A brief glance at the entire history of humanity would indicate that what they are saying is true.

            Less than 0.01% of human history has even been documented…

            Just because you can’t imagine anything better than what you were raised in doesn’t mean it can’t exist…

            This too shall pass.
