YouTube turned everyone into broadcasters. Sora could help bring countless untold stories to life, straight from the imagination.
> Humans are not built for this power to be in the hands of everyone with low friction.

- CamperBob2 2y agoI mean, you're clearly not wrong, but how do you propose implementing your worldview without doing even more harm to humanity? The only thing worse than a powerful, dangerous tool in the hands of the masses is a powerful, dangerous tool controlled exclusively by powerful, dangerous people. (Cue the usual moronic analogies involving thermonuclear weapons...)
- shortrounddev2 2y agoThe problem of distributing access to dangerous things like AI and weapons has been a problem that humans have faced for a few thousand years. Governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. If there was a formula for good governance, we'd have fewer problems, but generally I believe in democracy, transparency, and liberalism.
