Well, folks, we have a giant problem in the area of artificial intelligence.

I'm not talking about Terminator 2.

The AI is going to grab control of the nukes and just destroy all of us.

What I'm talking about here is the simple fact that artificial intelligence, like all social media, like pretty much all technology ever, is a human creation.

And because artificial intelligence is supposed to be some sort of

imitator of human intelligence, that means it is going to carry all of our biases. When you hear

the tech bros, when you hear people at the top levels of AI talk about how the algorithm

decides things. You should understand. The algorithm is designed by them in the same way that you

decide what children should be educated with. These people are deciding exactly what the biases are

that should be implanted in things like AI. And when you hear leaders in this field say things like

it's the algorithm that's controlling this, understand they are using the algorithm in the same way that Roman emperors used to say the gods willed it.

In other words, they willed it and now they are blaming it on the gods.

The reality is that the people who have created AI, they are the creators of the AI,

and they have decided what exactly should be embedded in the bias of the AI.

The reason that this is so dangerous is because as artificial intelligence becomes quicker,

faster, better, more convincing, the entire informational arena in which we live is going to change

radically. The fact is that all of the sort of institutions have been destroyed when it comes

to the dissemination

of information. The media blew out their credibility in the United States solidly 20, 30, 40 years

ago. And so there are no gatekeepers there on the Internet. The dissemination of the means

of informational distribution means that anyone can put anything up. But it also means it is

very hard to tell what is true and what is false.
