Why? Why should it be shut down?

Why didn't we shut down Gutenberg or Turing?

Ai isn't just the crap you type into chatgpt or Gemini going crazy with Google searches.

You know nothing about AI what it does and what it is.

Yes I do, and it's totally different than Gutenberg or Turing. But as soon as AI is programmed with "ideological bias" it becomes an agenda, a tool to manipulate people. Besides, it's training people to think less, and put in less effort. It will have long term negative effects on society.

This has been said about every significant invention ever.

Well, do you see where society is at now?

It seems like it has been subject to many long term negative effects over the past decade or so.

AI is a totally different ballgame, and I'm sure you know this.

This is how they tried to suppress the calculator in schools.

A search engine also impedes your thinking.

[–] sfu@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Some search engines more than others!

[–] doodledup@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

But they always do.

Unless AI can find me a way to travel back in time to 2012 I really dont care about AI development AT ALL

Sending a Terminator to take down conservative characters throughout history would do the world good. The guys who shot Lincoln and President Garfield? Gone. Hitler? MyPillowed in the crib. The police who assassinated the Black Panther leadership? Reduced to ham cutlets before they can go to work.

Alas, we don't have a benevolent SkyNet to save us from cruddy outcomes. We will have to do it ourselves, in the now and future.
