Looking forward to buying the robot I can send to the movie theater to watch the AI-generated movie for me and come back and tell me what happened.

    You have to remember we evolved as meat sacks full of chemicals. As in we have rich sensory input and chemical signals that give us powerful emotions. An ai is just a neural net made of silicon, it doesn’t get a boost in serotonin or a lift in dopamine to motivate it. You can program it to act like it feels but without the chemicals and pathways to support these feelings who knows what we’ll get. Add on top the ability for it to tweak and write its own code and there’s a lot of possible outcomes other than good ones.

      Oh for sure. It won’t have to worry about its gut bacteria making it angry and irrational when it hasn’t had a snack in 7 hours.

      Maybe it’ll get tied up constantly fighting competing AIs for survival if they are allowed to interconnect. Then we might get overlooked while it’s busy with its own shit.
