I think the point isn't that that we're so good at brainwashing other humans into committing atrocities it's difficult to see what AI adds (the sort of societies that are somewhat resistant to being brainwashed into tyranny are also pretty resistant to a small group of tyrants having a monopoly on dangerous weapons)
- int_19h 4y agoI wouldn't say that democratic societies are resistant to concentration of monopoly on violence in a small group of people. Just look at police militarization in US. As far as brainwashing - we're pretty good at it, but it still takes considerable time and effort, and you need to control enough mass media first to maintain it for the majority of the population. With an AI, you can train it on a dataset that will firmly embed such notions from the get-go.
