Orwell 2024 - AI Equals Loss of Agency
Politics / AI Aug 17, 2024 - 12:57 AM GMTBy: Nadeem_Walayat
Humans have fought tooth and nail to gain agency, freedom from the Lords of the Manor but here in the 2020's we are in the process of giving up our agency to the machine intelligence. It means over time humans will become dumber and dumber as the AI will do much of our thinking for us as we perceive the AI to have superior judgment to us mere mortals with limited knowledge whist the AI can call on all of human knowledge.
Already the high priesthood of AI professes that he AI will know us better than ourselves, META already states that it's algorithms can predict a lot about it's users just through analysis of our interactions with it's platforms.
Losing agency i.e., deciding what one should do will turn us into dumb animals where maybe even a Chimpanzee will have greater agency in making it's own choices.
An example of humans giving up agency to the AI would be consulting AI if a person would make a good marriage partner or not and thus relationships would break up without any real reason other than the AI said we were not a suitable match. And this is just one example that culminates in the likes of the Movies Pre-crime where AI predicts if a person will become a criminal and thus the person gets arrested before the event. AI means we will be living in a version of George Orwell's 1984!
"If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face - forever." - George Orwell.
We imagine AI Agents will help us to better ourselves but it acts to take away that which makes us humans, AGENCY! Already countless rely on the likes of Chat GPT in terms of ones decision making process which means LESS conscious thought, and where nature is concerned if you don't use it you lose it be it muscle power or brain power. As the HGR guides illustrate you have to put in blood, sweat and tears to maximise ones potential, AI does not help one maximise ones potential as it takes over a large chunk of the thinking process.
AI is the nail in the coffin, I mean just look at the crap we are exposed to! X, TIK-TOK! Delete that APP now! There is nothing of value in that. RESTRICT usage of Twitter, and the rest because they are mind numbing wastes of time when what you should be doing is hitting the Gym! Or a boxing bag at least!
To Maximise potential You need to do that which lights a fire in your belly, sharpens your mind, generates focus and intensity, grit and determination, even anger! I don't see how AI chatbots can help with any of that!
Whenever I rarely use the likes of Chat GPT, the exchange results in a response that tends to be weak and feeble or the responses are blocked, it's like the Chat bot wants humans to become weak and feeble. Maybe a local LLM trained on ones own personality will do better.
You want to gravitate towards that which will make you exceptional not watered down to become a creature that waits for your smartphone to tell you what to do next!
You want to make yourself MORE decisive not less which is what the system desires, for the masses to become one with the hive mind.
Here's how to beat the system - when you have a decision to make do that which is the more difficult thing to do, i.e. empty the trash can over scrolling your social media feed. Going for a walk over watching youtube for an hour. Do that which is more difficult.
So if you really want to learn how to beat the system try to always opt to do that which is more difficult and the more uncomfortable thing to do. This gives you a huge advantage over others as most folk will opt to do that which is easier and thus see years pass by with little progress.
Ready to level up ??
PAIN! Do that which is PAINFUL! The sooner you do it the better because eventually you are going to have to do it anyway, it's just that you've wasted so much time delaying doing that which is painful be it quitting ones job, or moving to another city / country.
Easy Won't cut it, Chat GPT Won't Cut it, NO PAIN NO GAIN!
