This is what we've been saying about #bigtech 's endgame with AI - to get us to #RentIntelligenceOwnIgnorance

As a top down tech, #AI serves the same goal as all elites: keep the masses entertained and stupid.

Big Tech says the quiet part out loud. They want you to be stupid.

Silicon Valley guru Alex Karp says the rise of AI will disadvantage women who vote Democratic. That’s what they’re going for.

Warning - extensive use of #ChatGPT (and other LLMs) will erode your ability for critical thinking:

"with each tiny change, you will have to sign up to new ever more invasive agreements where Microsoft etc can take the skills of your workers and then rent them back to you."

Make no mistake, THIS is the future we're sleep walking into.

#AI #RentIntelligenceOwnIgnorance

I've talked about #rentintelligenceOwnIgnorance before, and Bruce Schneier provides a great example with #Microsoft #Recall

"... in the Far East [workers] started to be replaced by “robots” that were in effect trained by skilled workers being “observed at work”.It is this latter point that people need to consider carefully. Because Recall will get used by Microsoft to “train their systems” thus make anyone with a repetitive task be it physical or mental “replaceable”."
