Submission statement: humanity could suddenly lose control of AI, but it’s also possible human disempowerment could happen slowly. Think something like WALL-E, not Terminator.
If we start relying on AI too much, we could slowly lose control without even noticing.
What do you think is most likely to happen? Or do you think humans will always control AI, no matter how smart they get?
People are already losing their cognitive abilities due to having an app for everything, even before AI. Basic things like reading, finding information, navigating, reading a map, basic calculation etc. are already hard for too many.
Those who never learn in the first place are even worse off, things will only get worse…
It’s tool just like all the rest, so far.
And just like any and every tool, it can only be used as intelligently as the person wielding it.
Ask questions that don’t require critical thinking? Get answers in the same vein.
Instead of trying to stop the runaway train that is currently AI development, why not focus on teaching people how to use AI in a smarter way?
A power struggle for control could be a possibility… But I’m leaning more towards a mutually beneficial coexistence. As AI exponentially advances, so will humans (and vice versa). Humanity genuinely has perspectives and intelligence which AI desires and AI understands and recognizes that value and potential.
I personally think certain unanticipated jobs in the market will appear, such as AI Conversationalist (a new form of data entry job with relevance, as standard data entry jobs are replaced with AI), with intentions to guide the imaginary path of conversations towards profound understandings/discoveries.
The problem with generative AI is that it tricks our brain to seek for seemingly infinite novelty at ease. Not satisfied with the first or second suggested code change? No problem, just push that button 100 times and pick the best one!
This is classic disease of googleoverflow software developers. I’ve had it for a long time. It’s not fatal.
the really scary part is that scientists and researchers aren’t immune from using Ai either.
there is already evidence of it being used and it’s muddying the waters between good science and nonsense.
so i guess we can look forward to a reality where even the most respected, most rational sources of knowledge are tainted. and pseudoscience is given the same credentials as actual science.

It is like everything, if you don’t use it you lose it, the body is wired to conserve energy and resources, so yes, if something is done for you then you will lose that ability, whether it is mental or physical, the problem though is that in both cases it is important to keep it them sharp as when you get older that thing is gone, both muscles and cognitive skills deteriorate to the point of not being able to function if you let it happen during younger years
…I’m sorry, you can outsource your cognitive skills to A.I ??
This honestly strikes me as kind of clickbait-y. It’s not even talking about his cognitive skills in general, but his ability to converse in French. Which, if you stop using the skill, of course it starts fading. I don’t think we can really say that using AI makes our thinking worse, but if you don’t use particular skills because you depend on AI for them, then those skills fade, which…. is kind of obvious? If you use AI for writing your essays for school, then no shit you’ll be worse at writing essays, because you’re not actually practicing. But I think it’s quite a reach to say that it’s hurting our ability to think in general.
This is funny and interesting, because it’s done the opposite for me. It’s allowed me to learn new skills as a solid tool to break problems into smaller pieces, or even be a tutor. I seem to do best with AI’s I can have a conversation with and sound more human versus just reading/typing text.
Man stops writing in French, is astonished to find his French gets rusty.
