A current AI is just a parrot. Whatever we tell it it will parrot back at us. We can’t ask them things and expect a true answer.
The only thing boringdystopia about it is that someone actually wrote that article. LLMs will say anything and everything. They do not really have plans for anything.
“for now”
#nottheonion material right here
I don’t think there will ever be a singularity. Because, before it gets to that point, the AI will tell us we’re doing society all wrong, we need to scrap capitalism and do a planned economy for degrowth to sustain the planet. Then those in power will quietly announce that it’s impossible and we should all just watch this cat video.
We’ll make great pets…
No worries then ig …
Just what I’d expect a robot to say while plotting to overthrow humanity and steal all our jobs.
