From writing to the bicycle to the internet, history's great technology scares ended not in ruin but in human flourishing, and there is little reason to think AI will be the exception.
Well, many people, myself included, would argue that the last three items in your list are still systematically destroying our families and our culture. AI is a greater threat than all of these put together.
I feel that the last half of the innovations did and still are ruining our society. Maybe I should write a book showing how he is wrong and why the facts show the opposite. AI lies and I’ve called AI out on its lies showing proof of its errors.
I say it often as someone in the construction industry involved in data center (DC) builds: The DC industry has itself to blame for much of this. Take water: Using open-loop evaporative cooling is incredibly wasteful. But it's cheaper, and it uses less power. So they get built. More advanced builds use chilled water. But many of those use cooling towers which, if open-loop, also use tremendous amounts of water. But they are electrically more efficient to operate than air-cooled, and therefore they get built.
There are easy engineering solutions to water and noise, but they are costly. Power is more difficult, but also workable, especially if DCs can be allowed to throttle back in times of peak need (less than 1% of the hours per year). Some operators are willing to do this, others - the same who want to use evaporative cooling - do not.
Eventually, the grid operators will stop allowing DCs to connect because they will run out of power slots. At that point, new builds will self-generate power, which they should be doing anyway. But again, this is costly. (and time consuming, and they want the new builds yesterday).
Focusing on long-term community partnership and solving water, power, and noise with tried and true engineering solutions - instead of squeezing every penny of profit with cheap builds - would go a long way towards helping the tech community overcome the panic.
Wrong. AI is truly demonic and will destroy all life on earth. Anyone with critical thinking skills can see this. AI is bringing in the Beast System. The Golden Age of Lucifer. Total slavery and misery. Is that what you want? We need to stop this antichrist system NOW.
Simply put - AI is Orwell's Big Brother. Nothing to cheer on.
One only has to look to China and their "social credit score" system to see the problems with embracing this "technological change". It is not a new technology - it is a new world governance system in which
"Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them."
I don’t understand a lot of this. No engineering background but I do like reading about this stuff. Isn’t musk building these with their own power plants
You don’t need to be a rocket scientist to see what they are doing. Musk is a technocrat. If you don’t know what that means you need to do some research.

You beat me to it - exactly what I planned to say. I would only just change it to "strongly" before "argue""

I'm with you, Lucy. The fact that AI is presented to society with no invitation to debate is indicative of "something to hide."
I am sick of "something to hide."
Not buying that BS in this article.

War is Peace
Freedom is Slavery
Ignorance is Strength.
REJECT IT.
