This gets to why I think AI will be the ultimate technology. Intelligence is what allows us to tap into the secrets of the universe and bend it to our will. Being able to create it is both terrifying and exciting.
If you can collect data, you can apply intelligence to it. Patterns and statistical associations are everywhere, and at various levels of scope and complexity. The situation you're describing is very possible with future AI technology, and a baby form of it is already manipulating us wherever we go on social media.
- rustcleaner 3y agoYes and the dark arcana here is that we are also the universe in the very sense you describe (secrets, bend-able to wills), and therefore susceptible to various extents depending on how stochastic we can appear to behave (and the computational limits of the analyzer). There will be future religions around this stuff: you literally need to have constitutional fortitude and gumption to avoid the dragnets. All plain social levers are already compromised for the uninitiated! Trying to get friends and family to get off iPhone so they can use Briar is impossible, and even just doing a King Solomon and splitting the baby at Session is ****ing harder than it ever should be. I feel like I am a human in a sheep's body, in a herd of sheep who can only grasp sheep concepts, BUT EVERYBODY IS HUMAN! I think a lifetime of ADHD -> communication and reputation failure, and that I will probably need to earn at least double everyone to recover said reputation (or slice, dice, and restart, which is also deeply expensive).
