      Prediction: dark money interests will force the government to declare AI infallible/100% color-blind so that the companies that use it can’t be sued for discrimination.

    Why can’t AI ever mess up in cool ways? Its never canceled a random person’s student loans or done a drone strike on a billionaire ghoul’s mega yacht.

    I remember thinking that “This Machine Kills” podcast was too niche and too in the nitty gritty of the machines of misery when I first started listening to them. But no, mainstream media is picking up this nightmare industry. A.I. used to scale is 666% ghoul shit.

    I hate that tech could be used to make so much life easier and better but capital demands it not be used for the betterment of our condition.

      I could invent a magic box that cost nothing to manufacture, used zero energy to operate, and converted toxic waste into delicious cupcakes and the capitalists would charge a monthly fee, put a tracking app on it, require a wifi connection, and release a new one every year while bogging down older models with bloatware.

      Hell is empty and they are the demons walking among us.

    Honestly my hope is the AI become in charge of the stock market and accidentally send it into a death spiral because of some type of weird infinite paperclip machine bug

        Are they still having humans input the commands after review though? I’m waiting for full on AI automation of stock portfolios and how badly they could react to some type of systemic factor in the market no one planned for (i.e. another crisis of capital).

          I’m pretty sure that has already happened. IIRC there was at least one time when trading was halted due to the HFT algorithms going berzerk and costing billions in losses in some sort of spiraling war.
