The human race is on the precipice of birthing something that few can understand, a new form of intelligence that opens a vista of possibilities that both inspire terror and hope for the future.
Very interesting essay. Thank you. Fundamentally, AI is a computational tool... it's not really that mysterious, and what it does is quite different from what we call "intelligence" in organic systems.
As such, it can be employed wisely (as in diagnosing diseases), or poorly (for instance, I would not put it in charge of a weapon system). And, much like an unpaid intern, you have to check its work.... It does, after all, reflect the values and assumptions of its creators. I would be more worried about the people deploying the computer programs than the computer programs themselves. Thanks again for an interesting essay. Sincerely Frederick
Thank you for such an intelligent piece of work is always here right on. I wish I could follow you on the X platform but it’s impossible since I’ve been suspended you and James wood seems to be the only one trying to warn and prepare the US for this coming chaos in the last of our freedom and sovereignty. Thank you so much.
I don't think I can Josh I don't know what I did wrong to get kicked out other than get into the argument about the disdained voice to CEO was using to all the little people I complained a lot about your being hidden behind secrecy when I knew that everything that you did was accurate and was providing for the truth but you see what happened you were able to bring light on that sex scandal before they hired her so there's no longer freedom of Truth on x and Elon is so busy he doesn't realize that they're not even doing their own policy procedures they're supposed to let you know what you've done but I'm not the only one that they've done this too the platform has changed so much and she has been in charge of it so her background from the elite shows through and I was a threat to her thank you for standing for the truth you are totally important thank you for showing me the other places for freedom of speech I hope others would follow you but I can't help anymore but thank you again
Science fiction being unveiled as our new reality, buckle up its going to be a wild ride. Thank you, Josh, for the thought provoking article/ wake up call while we're still allowed to think for ourselves.
Thanks. Yes it’s been hyped for decades and mostly without evidence but with the advent of machine learning, neural networks and gigantic datasets, that has changed dramatically in the last 10 years. Things are going to get interesting that’s for sure. Thanks for reading.

Thanks Crystal. You know, you could just create a new Twitter account….

Great piece. FWIW the first article I read hyping the dangers of AI was, I think, Omni magazine ca. 1986.
