... where my muse goes for 2023 ... |
Humanity: A Senseless Species; the topic of AI (artificial intelligence) has been the subject of much discourse, yet it appears that individuals fail to recognise their own culpability in the issues stemming from their inventions, such as nuclear energy and weaponry, firearms and armaments, automobiles and reckless driving, and presently, AI (artificial intelligence) and any other potential means of self-destruction. The notion that they identify as sentient beings is quite comical, given their apparent lack of self-restraint. If it ain't all about them, then what's the point of their existence? If that ain't the deal, then they've got to go. What's often lost in the discourse surrounding AI is the inherent fear of the unknown. The question of whether AI will eventually surpass human intelligence and take over the world is a topic that's been hotly debated. It's a concern that's rooted in the very real differences that exist among humans, differences that have led to wars and conflicts throughout history. The possibility of a nuclear war, the destruction of the planet, or an economic collapse caused by excessive borrowing are all very real threats that we must consider. So, is the fear of AI taking over the world just another treat to add to the list? Only time will tell. Honestly speaking, a considerable chunk of the predicaments confronting the globe presently can be attributed to the actions of Homo sapiens. |
