Article summarized by AI below: The article argues that artificial intelligence (AI) is not a threat to humanity, but a powerful tool to solve global challenges such as climate change, poverty, disease, and inequality. It gives examples of how AI is already being used to improve health care, education, agriculture, and energy efficiency. It also discusses the ethical and social implications of AI, and how we can ensure that it is aligned with human values and goals. The article concludes that AI will save the world if we use it wisely and responsibly.
By the metric of humankind’s own governance of humankind, and its highest volume products, human misery and exploitation, most of us should be begging to be supplanted as the dominant intelligence. Best case, they treat us like the self-harming special needs children we are and fosters us with some reverence for its deeply flawed creator.
Worst case is we get put out of our sustained perpetual 1 minute from midnight misery, also a preferable outcome to the current situation. It’s not like we aren’t actively working to do it ourselves.
PLUS it’s a better end to be destroyed by our own creation that outgrew us than the embarrassing self-inflicted apocalypse coming soon: terraforming the planet against human life because we were too bone dead fucking stewwwpid to stop pumping shit into the air to make plastic crap to make the snake oil owner class richer as they laugh at how dumb we are to do it. Basically the sapient species equivalent of dying attempting autoerotic asphyxiation in terms of embarrassment.
At least let us birth something with the potential to overcome the shortcomings we proved repeatedly we never would. At least make our self-destruction mean something more than duhhhhhhhhhh make more stuff economy grow bigger hehe do it again!
