Are we teaching AI to destroy humanity? - Lemmy.world

With all these massive amounts of articles about AI that’s gonna destroy humanity, aren’t we putting the idea out there for AI?

AI is already destroying humanity. All the algorithms that drive content distribution are producing society polarized to the extreme. We consume media that some machines decide to serve us with one goal: grow engagement.

AI destroying humanity is not robots crushing skulls, but automated services mushing brains.

AI ≠ Algorithm

An algorithm always answers/does the same on an input, AI doesn’t. Blaming AI for algorithmic content delivery is false.

It is not the algorithm that is destroying humanity, but the financial incentive of the people standing behind it.

AI in its current state is an algorithm. Given a temperature of 0, an AI SHOULD always give the same answer for the same input (but there is currently a bug in chatgpt that makes it not so)
