Years ago, I read the poem "All Watched Over By Machines of Loving Grace" https://allpoetry.com/All-Watched-Over-By-Machines-Of-Loving-Grace https://allpoetry.com/All-Watched-Over-By-Machines-Of-Loving... Whenever there is a debate over the dangers or AI, I keep going back to that poem. Sure, the SkyNet AI scenario is terrifying. But the benevolent AI scenario is its own dystopia. Super-intelligent AIs will run everything, and humans will be left living lives where we do nothing of consequence. Life may be easy, but will it also feel pointless? P.S. I believe Brautigan was earnest in his poem. I just take a different message away than what he intended.
