AI is a misnomer. It is linear algebraic brute forcing of data to provide a seemingly cogent response. It is not intelligent. If you heavily constrain the context (either via data set or manually linking pertinent data), it can provide fast synthesis of data, but that's about the extent of it's usefulness.
For instance, last week I asked a recent LLM about a hypothetical place of birth. "If at the time of my birth, my mother was in Indiana and my father was in France, where was I born?" It responded that it couldn't know where I was born by what information I had provided.
Upon inquiry, it said that a human's birth place had to be where the mother was physically located because of how we are born, and that a father's location had no bearing on this. I had to manually link these facts and then re-pose the hypothetical for it to answer correctly.
The human mind functions as a fact map - closely related facts are bound together and different contexts can exist together so that only the context that matters can be used when needed. This is a three-dimensional biochemical and bioelectrical process that is beyond our ability to replicate on traditional silicon.
People like to "yea, but" about quantum computers, and I have to tell them that quantum computers are 100 years away from general implementation because it's such a fundamental shift that everyone who programs will have to be completely re-trained to use properly. It's not like you'd be able to install Windows:Quantum in 5 years when we first get a system running.
Even moving from "yes, no" to "yes, no, maybe" or binary to trinary is such a fundamental shift in how we think about programming that it'll be a two generation leap to general use. And that's before we discover how to implement a qubit's total possible number of states (I think I heard up to 32 states can be achieved currently).
AI, like guns, drugs, Protestantism, and so forth before it will not bring us the darkness. Only our sullied spirits will.
A.I. isn't intrinsically evil, itself. It just provides the method of total control
Paper is also a method of total control, with the amount of paperwork we need to have with us on all times in authorities regimes. However, I am not seeing too many Christian people yelling to get rid of paper.
...
I have long come to the conclusion that if the events of the Book of Revelation were to unfold, it will be supernatural in nature, and don't rely on machines that can be turned off by pulling a plug.
The wheel is even more of a method of control. If everyone always has to bushwhack where ever they go it would be hard for anything evil to make it's way to your door. That goes for anything good too of course.
If one country bans all wheels & all paper too, that ensure that that particular country will be dominated by others. We have no choice but to be the AI leader of the world. That is the only way to help reduce the chances of it becoming evil
