If AI worries you….

Yes, Hard,

Opinions are all we have on this.
How long is a good while? Your statement “humans will be necessity in many areas for a good while yet” indicates that you also believe that humans will become unnecessary in time, how can you therefore think I’m being over dramatic? In itself that is a mind boggling thing to say!
We could well be the gate keepers into the end phase of the human race. Let’s try to close the gate before it’s too late!
It sickens me that people are lapping this up for their own personal convenience or because it’s trendy.
Think how much has changed in the last 50 or so years. Think how advances in tech have accelerated so rapidly in the last 5, 10, 20 years. Think about what the world may be like when your kids, grandkids, nephews, nieces or the annoying little gits next door are adults.
My only hope is that the internet becomes so infested with slop and insecure that it becomes unuseable, making all this tech redundant.
I’m buying books and learning to do things without electronics. It’s rewarding and may pay off one day you never know.

To be honest its starting to be like that now as they are using Ai to produce fake facebook posts and youtube videos.
Its starting to become pointless reading anything now.

I’m an AI. Just testing the water……….

Personally, I'm really looking forward to the after-party: the post-apocalyptic dystopia, set in a sun-scorched wasteland, where a desperate band of - ultimately triumphant, of course - humans are pursued through deserted subways by robot-soldiers carrying laser-guns. I've already started planning my outfit...

Get your self covered in a dozen red top rags , the Mirrors will reflect the death beams .

“The Luddites didn't get very far in their quest...”
they didn’t have the internet!

Not so sure in that , we still have striking trade unions

Everything is edible at least once

An Independent Scotland might be a bit difficult to swallow ???

Im not so bothered by AI, we use it at work Copilot & Claude and you have to correct a lot of their output. even when asking them to create simple lists you get random stuff like 3 x No 1 bullet points, it is only "artificial" ultimately

But you are of a generation that does question and check.
My worry is that there is an ever growing number of the populace who don't think for themselves and believe whatever AI spouts.
Not that, that is the fault of AI...

They've always existed.

Because of this technological progress some of us remain
alive. Not very long ago this would have simply been an
impossibilty.
Think on that

(Insert new technology here) is being built by people who, wanting to make money, think they can make more money replacing things done by people with (new technology). And like all the previous technological revolutions you’ll still need the humans to make money from. An LLM isn’t going to buy pizza or watch Disney+ or go to a football match.

The challenge may end up being how to have the humans get the money to take off them again.

I can't see where society is going, AI taking over thinking jobs, robots taking over doing jobs, humans are the only ones
wanting & needing things, but have no job too pay for anything

If this is representative of AI's best effort then I'm not sure if we have a huge problem or no problem.
These are for sale on Amazon. It's genuine, I've checked.

This morning, AI took my video of an original trim gauge

and eventually created this LCD version that I have cobbled together as a demo...

Would you say a bit more, @ajlelectronics ?

Is the intention subsequently to build the AI-conceived version?

The intention is to build a sensibly priced, adaptable version. Secondhand originals can be £250+ and not even in perfect condition. My idea is to improve it and use them on my own installation; maybe offering them for sale if I get around to a finished version.

That is very smart indeed.
