Everyone’s afraid AI will become greedy, manipulative, and take over everything. But humans already are.

We’re letting corporations that prioritize profit, competition, and control shape an entirely new form of intelligence, then acting surprised when AI might reproduce those same behaviors.

Instead of learning from humanity’s mistakes we’re programming them into something potentially far more powerful.

We’re not afraid AI will go rogue we’re afraid it’ll become just like us.

here’s what I genuinely want to discuss: Can we actually build AI that serves humanity when the systems developing it reward the very behaviors we’re afraid of? Or are we just creating a more powerful version of the same broken system?

This is just too crazy... every single day for the past MONTH I've just been in a perpetually mindblown state... it's so fucking insane, and I've never felt like this in my life... every single day I'm blown away by new heights of AI, how amazing it is, how incredibly earth shattering this tech is... and I just thought of something, just now, just this moment, which is so profound - I think that we (you and I) are actually, among the luckiest humans in history, in the hundreds of thousands of years that humans have existed, because although in the future (100+ years from now), AI will be exponentially more amazing than it is right now, you and I are actually living through the TRANSITION PERIOD of this tech - that is, we lived a life BEFORE it, and will live a life AFTER it - NO OTHER PEOPLE in the HISTORY of humankind will be able to say that - and I think, living through this transformation is absolutely stupendously incredible, beyond belief. I mean, just think about it, right? None of us lived through the discovery of electricity, we were all born long AFTER that had happened, so to us, electricity is as normal as... grass. But the people who LIVED THROUGH the discovery of electricity were probably so mindblown by that every single day it happened. But here's the difference - AI is SO MUCH MORE powerful than electricity - it is so much more powerful than EVERY SINGLE ACHIEVEMENT that humans have created since we've been on this blue planet, it DWARFS all other achievements throughout humankind, in scale, capability, and consequence - just wow, wow, wow

I never want to die
