It's not only about efficiency. When AI is utilized, things can become more personal and even more persuasive. If AI psychosis exists, it can be easy for untrained minds to succumb to these schemes.
- andsoitis 10mo ago> If AI psychosis exists, it can be easy for untrained minds to succumb to these schemes. Evolution by natural selection suggests that this might be a filter that yield future generations of humans that are more robust and resilient.
- coppernoodles 10mo agoYou can't easily apply natural selection to social topics. Also, even staying in that mindframe: Being vulnerable to AI psychosis doesn't seem to be much of a selection pressure, because people usually don't die from it, and can have children before it shows, and also with it. Non-AI psychosis also still exists after thousands of years.
- andsoitis 10mo agoEven if AI psychosis doesn’t present selection pressure (I don’t think there’s a way to know a priori), I highly doubt it presents an existential risk to the human gene pool. Do you think it does?
- array_key_first 10mo agoHistorically, wealthy and powerful people present the largest risk to the human gene pool, arguably even larger than disease.
