i did not know anything about stock market stuff cory explains.

to me it is very important how well he explains the reverse centaur problem. what happens already today, when ai controls humans to ensure they do their job exactly as expected, and this is unprecedented level of control.

You do understand that all this fuss is about a fancy spell checker that can supply text that statistically fits?

Even calling this AI is a great exaggeration, and when the talk goes to AI rebellion... Please calm down.

everyone and their granmas are calling it "AI", so watch everyone and their granmas put this "AI" behind their wheels, and when it runs over you on the sidewalk expect everyone and their granmas to go

@stack, in the article there's an example: ai and cameras that control amazon truck drivers, their every movement. it was never like this. and here where ai does not empower regular humans, it humiliates regular humans.
