That’s what parallel societies are for!

They recently used AI to translate a lot of code to Rust. Thought it sounded like a neat project right until then.

I know what you mean. But it doesn’t have to be that way if enough people walk away and decide to do something positive instead.

Do you think he understands everyone else’s though processes? Presumably if you were surrounded by guys like him then you would be able to comprehend the way they think.

This reminds me of that quote

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.

Now imagine it’s your children too.

Very true. And we have to remember that our own views are informed by years of study/observation in areas other people will not have paid any attention to. So often it would take a book worth of real life examples to give someone the same background experience, and they would have to read that book carefully over many months for those examples to sink in, and still then they might think those are cherry-picked examples, whereas you came across them organically.

Thanks for the inside view. I never knew a lot of the survey takers came from mobile games or that spending could be tracked.

They could have an AI tweak the statistics if they seem unrealistic

When all jobs are able to automated it will mean human intelligence, skill and labor has been surpassed by machines. We will be treated like pets in a world run by machines, like WALL-E. We will have no real autonomy or ability to determine the future of the world. There will no longer be any reason to try at anything, since all useful tasks will be done by machines and the only things humans will do is pass the time and experience emotions. But we know that people aren’t happy unless they have some purpose. Goals, challenges, struggles. Depression is going to skyrocket if machines get to human intelligence.

Evil is part of human nature. Technology confers great power to both the good and bad, but it’s much harder to create than destroy, so the result is that evil gets amplified more than good.

The “Cancel ChatGPT movement” doesn’t appear to be mentioned in the article, but other outlets say hashtags like #CancelChatGPT are trending on X.

I think you’re right that stock trading has enabled a lot of bad and perhaps shouldn’t have been allowed. At least on a large scale beyond a single town or county. Paper certificates for money may have been a bad idea too. Even the use of a common currency like gold may have been a net negative. I think a barter system has positives over a common currency in that it requires people to work together and form communities.
