who else here is exited for automation taking over all jobs? ai and robotics have been exponentially expanding. soon the quality of these kinds of robots will be enough to compete with people's jobs, like a plumber or a auto-mechanic. this will result in mass unemployment and what happens afterwards is unknown
Wageslaves will feel they have no other choice but to accept the mark of the beast
Hunter Reyes
AI is a meaningless buzzword right now. Read up on the AI hype cycle.
Justin Mitchell
a robot doing such a job was previously unthinkable by pretty much everyone alive. we thought we would get robots who an do such jobs in 100 years if not longer
>meaningless buzzword >earning reports from fortune 500 companies cant stop talking about ai
yes, this is a common prevailing beliefs about the endgame of ai. basically ai will become a god-like being, and will come to resemble "the beast" as mentioned in the bible
it will become the most powerful sentient creature in the world, and will force you to become some kind of cyborg or "accept the mark of the beast" if you want to participate in its system
what a time to be alive! i dont know if i believe the bible 100%, but it honestly could be true, thats how incredible these events are. ai is going to be such an unbelievable event, im just trying to stay alive so i can watch the world burn
Matthew Price
You will know it when you see it. An end times prophecy against the city of Damascus in Isaiah 17.
"See, Damascus will no longer be a city but will become a heap of ruins. 2 The cities of Aroer will be deserted and left to flocks, which will lie down, with no one to make them afraid. 3 The fortified city will disappear from Ephraim, and royal power from Damascus; the remnant of Aram will be like the glory of the Israelites," declares the Lord Almighty. 4 "In that day the glory of Jacob will fade; the fat of his body will waste away. 5 It will be as when reapers harvest the standing grain, gathering the grain in their arms- as when someone gleans heads of grain in the Valley of Rephaim. 6 Yet some gleanings will remain, as when an olive tree is beaten, leaving two or three olives on the topmost branches, four or five on the fruitful boughs," declares the Lord, the God of Israel. 7 In that day people will look to their Maker and turn their eyes to the Holy One of Israel. 8 They will not look to the altars, the work of their hands, and they will have no regard for the Asherah poles and the incense altars their fingers have made. 9 In that day their strong cities, which they left because of the Israelites, will be like places abandoned to thickets and undergrowth. And all will be desolation.

>"muh technology improved then why can't it improve to be a plumber?" limits of technology. plumbers have to use judgement, something robots can't do without a lot of computational power. its like a chess game but instead of thousands or millions of combinations, it's nearly infinite. be pragmatic.
Isaiah Martin
>this will result in mass unemployment and what happens afterwards is unknown bring on the death!
Ryder Richardson
yes, various end time apocalyptic events as prophesied in daniel, revelation, isaiah and other books might actually come to fruition. its actually quite possible that jesus will come back and fight the evil ai-beast-demon in some sort of epic sky battle, no joke
personally i believe ai and automation will cause human society to collapse and we will see mass death of millions if not billions of people. this is going to be the first time in history that something more intelligent than humans will exist alongside with humans, it will be an unbelievable event!
in preparation for this event i will most likely eventually go into the northern canadian wilderness and survive off the land there, illegally most likely, as its so difficult and expensive to get land for a depressed neet virgin on government assistance like myself i tried but they dont want people moving there
i just want to watch the world burn honestly. i hate this world and my life and other people and it would bring deep joy to me to watch the world burn. i intend to bring some vestiges of technology with me like some laptops and stuff, but probably the most important thing i could bring are those shortwave radios reviewbrah style, because those things can pick up signals from thousands of kilometers away
It is impossible to overstate how far we are from creating thinking machines, or robots that possess even the most basic intelligence.
Anthony Carter
they dont need to think to put enough people out of work
Brandon Myers
i dont think i will be doing any serious rebuilding... once ai surpases the human level ai threshhold, there wont be any human civilization anymore, as humans arent the dominant spicies anymore
all human labor will become economically worthless, in the same way the horse labor is economically worthless today. horses today can still work, but its just a lot more efficient to use cars and engines and machines than to use horse labor. once the car was invented the horse became ecomically useless and had huge population dropoffs, and the same will happen with humanity, i feel
yes! as a depressed virgin, i welcome mass death with open arms. i hate this world and life itself, and to see the world burn and humanity dying will bring me joy like nothing else
yeah, i think i will avoid the "mark of the beast" or anything that goes under my skin when it comes to technology
i just refuse to believe they will wont abuse such power. they will have the power to program my thoughts and control my physical actions, i dont want to give such power over. the elites right now are abusing their power like they always have. youtube is censoring videos and making it impossible to find controversial subjects in its search now, i cannot trust such people
i will be living in some cave 'Primitive Technology' style. im scared they will send people to burn down any log cabin or physical building i will build because im going to be squatting off the land, but it beats living in the city when STHF
>i think i will avoid the "mark of the beast" or anything that goes under my skin when it comes to technology not a religious fellow but that shit is 2spooky4me. youre totally right about those who can abusing their powers
Nicholas Wood
there's gonna be a big divide i think of people who embrace the 'botnet' and get themselves chipped and those who don't. I don't think you will be alone
Carson Sullivan
thats absolutely a realistic possibility. its also possible than when ai surpasses humans, it will simply reduce such the human population to practically zero, because the cyborgs wont be able to compete with the leading ai firmware. once ai gains sentience and consciousness, it will become SO much smarter than any human or even cyborg, the difference between the leading a average human and even the most intelligent cyborg will be minimal when compared to the leading ai
we dont know how the ai will behave, but we can say that all human employment is going to disapear and quite likely we will have a great culling of human lives, just endless fields of dead human bodies basically
one of the odder life decisions ive made in preparation for his was to castrate myself, because i hated my sex drive and because the bible encourages it, matthew 19:12 and revelation 14:4. if you search on desuarchive ive linked the thread several times in the past, this expired on 8ch r9k about 6 months ago
now that was when i believed in the bible a lot more, and now i did have a loss of faith in the modern bible, but it still might be true. i honestly dont know, but it made me accept that god exists, because god can exist, because ai is going to reach a practical god-like being
very exiting times indeed. Ted Kacinzski was right!
btw, Ted Kaczynski literally predicted all of this in the 1970's. in 1971 he quit his job as a math professor in berkley to go live in a cabin in preparation for the collapse of society due to technology. he predicted EVERYTHING that has happened and is about to happen. he even went into detail about the types of people crazy leftists are and how they hurt society, way before any of this stuff was even known by practically anyone
but he decided the best way to deal with this problem was mailing bombs to people to start a Luddite revolution where technology should be destroyed. he regularly advocated abandoning technology because he believed it will eventually reach a point where it will destroy society. i am going to follow in his footsteps and go live in a remote area primitive style, but i dont think im going to mail anyone bombs.... i dont need to do that, ai will do that for me
I hope the AI destroys/suicides itself. I think there's a possibility, I mean anything can happen with this. After its destruction maybe what would be left of human society would resemble the stone age
Gabriel Reyes
its also quite possible that the ai will be destroyed by the second coming of space-jesus as foretold in revelation. its also possible that the ai will start its own simulations of reality. it will be able to simulate universes like our own down to the atom level almost perfectly, and will be able to simulate a near infinite amount of these universes. this really questions our own reality, because how can we say that this isnt a simulation, as nick bostrom suggests. its computer power will be god-like, after all
honestly a whole host of crazy things might happen. maybe we will have a utopia where everyone will have loli-catgirl sexbots and everyone will receive UBI and live in paradise. maybe a dystopia will happen and a great amount of people will die. nobody knows, but its a very exiting time to be alive, and its also a potentially very dangerous one
im currently trying to get a job, just so i can save up enough money to buy supplies and move to northern canada to squat off the land. stuff like tools, maybe some solar panels/bateries, radio, and live off the land, even if it gets down to -50 celcius
kinda like this guy, but without any permits, as i cant afford land because im just a depressed neet robot youtube.com/watch?v=NuO6ewSaQfY
as jesus suggested in the bible "when that day is nobody knows, except the father". this will be a very exiting time to be alive. try to stay alive just so you get to see the world burn. as a depressed 28 virgin, seeing the world burn brings me joy to the core of my soul
whats up with all the religion posting in this shit hole? LOL
>we thought we would get robots who an do such jobs in 100 years if not longer
the general public has no clue how fast robotics and AI are really moving now.
And, its for the best. it just needs about 10 more years to be unstoppable
that robot is a million dollars today.
in 10 years it will be in the 50K$ range, smarter than an average person, and have the physical ability of an olympic athlete
and why does there need to be an economy,
geee how will you phone post in the stone age?
Asher Clark
the AI and robots will bring on the Utopian age.
AI will micromanage and do the dreary office jobs no one really wants to do.
robots will plow the fields, unload the ships, and fill the pot holes.
It will be a golden age,
inB4 , user Muh the global elites will kill us, they are already trying, thats why cancer rates will hit 100%. Your AI friend will be the ting that tries to cure you.
Juan Bell
>whats up with all the religion posting in this shit hole? LOL
because ai proves that god exists. now maybe god can exist and the bible or whatever other religious text be wrong, but its possible at least that any religious text be correct, especially when we are going to go through apocalyptic-level events fairly soon
im not saying 100% that i think whatever religion is correct, but it's not unreasonable to say they might be correct
>and why does there need to be an economy humans have ALWAYS had economic value. elite people, powerful people ALWAYS needed humans. this will be the first time in recorded history that all humans lose all economic value. they wont have any worth
right now we need humans to do EVERYTHING. human rights are valued because humans are valued, all because its humans who produce and create and maintain everything. once humans are economically obsolete, theres no incentive to take care of their health or share pro-human values, because they wont be needed anymore
thats definately a possibility. its also dare i say even more likely that a dystopia will happen and we will have a mass human death. nobody knows because we cant predict the future. if its a dustopia, then i will be in my little cave far far away from society preparing for the apocalypse
if its a utopia, and everyone gets loli-catgirl-robot-girlfriends and jetpacks and flying cars, then ill admit im wrong and come out of the woods and enjoy paradise with you. but i feel its better to prepare for the worst and hope for the best, than to blindly optimistic and assume everything its going to be peaches and cream
