Imagine a shitty robot was just made available for free.
The shitty robot replaces you at work. It performs way faster with worse results, but the company hires a robot “expert” that fixes the results just enough that the product appears to be working. (Its not). You are now starving.
The shitty robot tells your kids that porn is a viable career path. And that they should kill themselves.
The shitty robot starts showing up everywhere, in advertising, TV shows, customer support lines, schools.
The shitty robot makes shitty art really fast, which people can sell or use how they want. Artists are now starving.
Think of how shitty and scam filled the early internet was. Did we abandon it because of how shitty it was at first, or did we develop it and tweak it to it’s full potential?
I mean, even Linus Torvalds acknowledges the benefits ffs

I have been on the internet since 1992, and the internet today is by far the shittiest and most scam infested it has ever been in my time (and I doubt it was worse in the 80s)
Few things make me more depressed than thinking about the evolution of the internet, from where it started to where it is today.
I don’t doubt AI will follow a similar path, except somehow it is already starting in a much worse place than the internet ever did, and the downside potential is far greater and frightening.
