    Yup too many people worry about what happens after AI gains sentience. When we need to worry about what happens before.

      Almost no movies have been put out that shows the threat of AI used to socially manipulate. That is the real threat right there.

      Bots can radicalize people into thinking they have a deep, intimate friend when it is just an LLM trained to slowly turn them into white nationalists.

          I want to watch that show so bad but from everything I see it’s just going to depress the fuck out of me by confirming my worst opinions on humanity.

        I was chatting with a big tidy goth girl, and before I knew it, I was selling copies of my graphic novelization of Mein Kampf in the back of a pickup truck in the parking lot of Hobby Lobby

          It’s in my library and I really probably should play it, just… I dunno. Maybe it’s been the wrong time and at some point I really do intend to play it.

              No worries, by the time I get around to it, I’ll have forgotten about this whole thread. Thanks for finding a media example of this, AI social manipulation has been a special interest of mine for a bit now.

        I have the vision that AI will eventually replace all the CEOs, being even more efficient than them at whatever their job is. This means even more exploitation of workers, hoarding of wealth, and putting profits above all else. The true nightmare. I think that AI will eventually turn all corporations into pure evil, and turn all humans against AI and therefore corporations. That will result in a civil war - humans vs machines. Eventually, humans will be able to save themselves, but only by putting capitalism and the system of ever rising profits to the grave for good.

        Ironically post-singularity AIs might be more like Master Computer from Tron. Just believing they are super efficient and can run things better. But to whose benefit?
