I think the "AI" that they're driving towards is where the party secretaries call up the name of anyone who displeases them on an app, which is then transmitted to a commissariat that proceeds to nuke your digital life. With additional features, they can also drone you.
Then all the NPCs that are going along with all this just shrug their shoulders, look at each other and say, "Hey, AI, amirite? What're you gonna do?"
I guess what I'm saying is that, in the final analysis, whatever They choose to call "artificial intelligence" is in principle irrelevant as long as it forwards their agenda.
Precisely, that is why they keep seeding the idea of how smart AI is and how we will reach the singularity. They will convince the masses it's smarter than a human and therefore infallible but it will be a parlor trick
I was just thinking today how obvious it is, yet no one sees it right in front of them. Remember when people caught AI just making facts up out of thin air, and they explained it away as simply a "hallucination"? I mean, would anyone take information and accept advice from someone that had even a single hallucination? You'd be like, "Hey, I think you should consider seeing a professional about this, brah. Good luck to you."
It's shocking to see how readily everyone accepts these things.
No they are just lapping this stuff up. I am at minimum somewhat qualified to speak on these matters and yet friends and family do not care, the fact that I can actually explain to them what is happening on a technical level does not matter, they are so excited for the future and what the TV men say that they can't wait for machines to become smarter than humans - which will never happen, they will surpass humans at a wider variety of tasks than they already have, and they will be able to access a wider berth of information quicker than any human and draw conclusions from it algorithmically, and these things will be mistaken for intelligence, but it will never be more intelligent than a human because AI will always need to be programmed to fulfill a specific task. They will just chain up enough of these systems to fool people. Case in point, other people who I know understand the technicals of what's going on still worship at the altar of chatGPT, but really it's just a search engine with some language recognition
