We can join the Amish and reject all technology based on AI. There may be a war against Big Tech. Terrorist attacks on data centers and robot factories.

- j4coh 1y agoThe technologists have no qualms about encroachment on your space.
- eucryphia 1y agoAs long as we have a choice. Not that long ago you would lose your job because you refused to take an experimental vaccination that didn’t prevent transmission.
- amanaplanacanal 1y agoWere there a lot of jobs that required vaccinations? I expect health care and military, but that comes with the job. Mine certainly didn't.
- int_19h 1y agoGuess who wins in a war where one side has killer drone swarms with thermal vision, and the other one doesn't? The only way to win this fight is to embrace the tech and put it to good use, not to shun it.

- voidspark 1y agoIf “put it to good use” means the value of human labor drops to zero, and everyone loses their job to ASI, then violent resistance is inevitable.
- int_19h 1y agoIt definitely is (and I would encourage that even). But such resistance cannot be luddite if it actually wants to win. Therefore, its goal cannot be "no AI", but rather "AI used for the benefit of society".
- voidspark 1y agoWith ASI there is no way that we can control it with absolute certainty. Controlling something that is vastly more intelligent than humans is fundamentally difficult.
- int_19h 1y agoI'm not worried about controlling ASI acting on its own behalf. What we need is to prevent humans in position of power from using the fledging AI that they control to entrench themselves and stomp on the rest of us.
- voidspark 1y agoASI can not be reliably controlled by any humans. It makes as much sense as chimpanzees or rats controlling humans.
