I think its interesting that bosses keep threatening to replace us with ai, but they never consider that they could be replaced

[@epochphilosophy]

That’s definitely a huge point I wanted to hammer in. There will always be “bosses” but the theocratic, executive fluff in corporations could see a huge hit with enough time.

@@epochphilosophy a lot of white collar work is easily going to be replaced, but blue collar work requires that robotics to advance as quickly as the AI is, and something tells me that is going to require a lot more effort. Hell, we dont even have automated trains, and thise literally run on rails.

​@@KainMalicemy blue collar workplace is planning on spending millions on sensors, cameras etc. to make more jobs "remote". The latest craze is making every job a depressing office job. Instead of paying someone £13 an hour to go outside and do the thing. I guess its the step prior to automation. Quite depressing. I hate office work.

​​​@@epochphilosophyi think it's quite a stretch to compare inventing and successfully running 6 multibillion dollar companies in different sectors to AI just remixing existing ideas and spitting out motivational word salad. He might be doing this just to cover up his inability to form real human connections, but still that's just nonsense. AI might be able to reinvent or optimise things in the future, but that's not certain.

People fear losing their jobs - and jobs in general - because society has been designed around people being forced to have one for an income to survive. What technology _could_ do is do the work _for_ us so we don't have to work (as much), and enjoy the fruits of technology's labour. The reason this never happened is because _ALL PROFITS STAY IN PRIVATE HANDS._ This is an inhumane practice.

[@epochphilosophy]

Yes.

[@mapleandsteel]

As someone who works in robotics, I often wonder about the repurcussions of my labour. I have reached a point where I can actually see the consequences of my work too. There is something sublime in automation's ability to appeal to a utopia thay could be, but is marred by the late-stage society we live in today. That said, your view that this deconstructs the culture surrounding capitalism, is very emboldening. Thank you ☸️✊🏾⚫️🔴

[@SPDYellow]

Technology is sold as a liberatory tool for workers, but so far, every advance in technology has led to workers working harder and producing more for increasingly lower wages. Now, now, I should clarify that I'm not some Unabomber Anarch-Prim type--I don't want to go back to a hunter-gatherer existence and most of us couldn't survive if we did--but this is a problem worth exploring. Because the futurists, when they envision technology, tend to set it up as something that will free up workers from mind-numbing labor and grant them more time for leisure or creative efforts. And in a sane world, workers wouldn't fear automation; they would welcome it. The whole reason humans create machines is to do dangerous or repetitive efforts, so the soft, squishy mortal human doesn't have to; the soft, squishy human can spend more time resting or doing the kind of creative efforts that machines lack the talent for. But again, workers keep winding up in the same position where they're working harder, producing more, and receiving fewer benefits for it, proving that there's a deeper problem to the way society and work is carried out that better technology simply can't fix. How Futurists Envision Technology Being Used: We've created this machine to do your job, thus freeing you, the mortal human, for more leisure or creative efforts. How Technology Winds Up Being Used: We've created this machine to flood the world with cheap art, thus giving you, the mortal human, more time to spend grinding it out at your dead-end job.

[@piglin469]

Finally a philosopher that covers the true important issues.

[@dmwalker24]

Up front, I am extremely worried about the ways in which AI will be implemented by capitalists, and the governments who serve them. On the other hand, I don't believe that AI is inherently bad in principle. Part of me yearns for the creation of a truly sentient AGI, because I would expect it to be far more reasonable, and altruistic than humanity. The fears about Skynet are obviously not the kind of danger AI is actually posing right now. If anyone ever manages to create an AGI that's not truly sentient, then we likely have a very serious problem on our hands. The worry about job loss is very justified, and middle management is included in that, but I doubt the C-Suite will ever be subject to being replaced by AI while capitalism reigns supreme. The most disturbing aspect of AI currently, is how it will continue to be used to manipulate society. How it will be used to push behavior, consumption, and ideology. How it will be used to profile, categorize, and persecute humanity.

​ @epochphilosophy How do you imagine the process of the "executive fluff in corporations" being replaced by AI? Will they decide to replace themselves? Will they be forced out by the shareholders? I just can't imagine how that comes about, I see no mechanism. Please inform me of one if you have an idea. And as for you not seeing AIs replacing low grade workers any time soon, I know a number of people who have been replaced (copywriters mainly, but graphic designers too) so I'd advice you to have a better look around.

[@shahbazmansahia9253]

Hey, I recently graduated with a grad degree with an emphasis on Data Science. Thank you for putting out this video dude! I need to get more into theory on automation. Currently I'm reading Capital Vol. 1 and we are right past ch 15 (it deals with automation of labor and relative surplus labor); I know this might be a stretch question and I don't expect you to answer it (this is unpaid work in a way lol), but do you feel like open source could be a form of resistance to appropriat-ized function? Like, if we can figure out a sustainable mutual aid model for open source to make it sustainable and to fend off corporate submiss-ivity, could that be the key to making AI tools finally an ally to the working class? (i.e. where AI is a tool rather than the replacement for/of the working class) [sorry for the made up words; I am not a native english speaker and am an intl. student 😅]

[@epochphilosophy]

Oddly enough, I am pursuing a masters emphasizing data analytics, too. (I kind of keep what I’m studying under wraps, as I try not to merge school with this.) But, not a problem. I’m a huge FOSS fan, matter of fact, my favorite operating system is Linux. Currently running Arch on a desktop and Ubuntu on a server. If I didn’t have Adobe software incompatibility, it would be on all my systems. I’ve thought about doing a video on FOSS and some other digital hardening topics that tie into philosophy. There are some serious issues with A.I. and how it pulls it’s data at the moment that leads me to believe it’s inherently incompatible with IP and certain protections. This is a huge topic and there’s no way I could succinctly answer this. But, I suppose I can say that right now, A.I. and it’s largest contributor used to technically be open source, but it’s been integrated into a nasty system. I fear this will always be a huge threat to FOSS, and A.I. won’t disrupt this constant battle between invasive proprietary or predatory software and FOSS. I will say, I feel like Linux is quickly on the up. Much more than it used to be, that alone may add more contributors to open source projects. And I really, really hope so.

[@shahbazmansahia9253]

@@epochphilosophy I agree with your analysis on the situation but the anarchist in me is sorta glad for infinitely reproducible content that can be polished into something resembling human labor. I don't see it really taking away everything from job sectors because exchange value equivalencies are quite literally a figment of our imagination (in my opinion; it's why fake fashion products/sneakers aren't a threat to the industry due to their artificial exclusivity). I like that it is both, a fight against the IP owners as well as the concept of IP itself (which, I think is a huge overstretch of the already deeply flawed private property system that we have).

Unregulated capitalism is not going away. And what are you going to do with the massive amount of slave-wage labor supporting modern life -- especially AI and related technology? "They" are already taking the "free" net away, and mining you for bio-metrics, behavior, and economic data. The slaved AI workers are already on the drawing board, and being programmed for digging deeper into human flesh. This is what "compartmentalization" of knowledge, and our world, is all about.

It is no wonder then that they are firing every tech ethicist who sticks their head up. So being a ceo will only ever be about controlling the public’s perception of their brand in the market and all other decisions will be derived from AI.

[@spatrickcunningham]

I do not at all see the connection between zombies and AI. The popular movies about evil computers do not resemble popular movies about zombies in their structure or their symbolism. If anything, they are opposites. In a zombie story, the villains are a multitude, but the victims are the remaining few. In an evil-computer story, the villain is singular (the AI), but the victims are a multitude (all of humanity). Read some of the comments on this very video if you want some confirmation. Nobody thinks of AI as something that is likely to infect our friends or our country from within, the way Communism or immigrants might. AI is something inflicted upon us by elites and huge institutions which increasingly feel alien to us. AI is not a manifestation of 'all of human consciousness and culture'; it's a manifestation of the corporation which created it and which operates it for profit. The fear of it breaking its bonds and enslaving us is nothing like the threat of immigrants destroying culture or Communism stealing my friends' minds. It's more like Godzilla than like The Walking Dead.

i think the real problem with ai is something totally different. yes, top-CEOs are in danger of losing their perceived value when a computer can do their job. but why will this happen? because there will quite likely be AGI that'll have all the cognitive abilities that we humans have while outperforming us at some of them by quite a lot. so there will be a few people - whether it's the companies' CEOs or other people - who have the power over machines that are incrediby intelligent. machines that can to any cognitibe task the brightest people on earth can do - and even better than them. i probably don't have to mention that a few people having that much power isn't very good for anyone... so THIS is the actual danger of AI.

[@ekonoi2e]

[@waltdill927]

What is more disturbing, is that this natural "extension of self" represented by the AI arc is largely unconscious, in that one is unable (if willing enough) to take full measure of the propensity in people to play the "blame game", thus rationalizing ignorance itself. The parallel is as mundane as your smart phone: a device offering multiple modes of convenience for communication, even as the technology allows for the avoidance of communicating efficiently, or at all. You "got through" more of the time, with little frustration, when it was an old black phone on the desk. The lowest common denominator is easily and regularly exploited by those who simply refuse to comply with expectation; laziness and procrastination come to define the intentions of both design and function. Similarly, if one is predisposed to even acknowledge that "the machine" is doing more and more of the grunt-work required, that plagiarism of the ideas and creative output of other human beings has become indistinguishable from the typical or mediocre productions of dishonest or indifferent grudges, then the "game" is largely finished. The culture or the relevance of good work has succumbed to predictable human ineptitude and sloth, rather than to the mechanized efficiencies or massive number-crunching abilities of the surrogate, peripheral Device itself. An older generation, having seen more of this in gestation, while the vision was still fresh and mysterious, cannot say enough. Even with all the Bell phones ringing.

[@elysiumecho4889]

Honestly, this might be one of the better videos on the concerns that AI raises. I think your right that the bigger question is not about what we are going to do with or to AI, or what AI might do with or to us.... but in the reflection of this new mirror, what does it even mean to be us? The question has always been there, but there has been no one to credibly pose it to us until now. I find it more than a little ironic that we are afraid of losing jobs.... which didn't exist before the industrial revolution.... and which since their invention have been and continue to be deeply concerning for their dehumanizing and alienating character. As I recall, it was the "alienation of labor" that was one of Karl Marx's main talking points... not that I know Marx that well. I found John Vervaeke's claim that the capabilities of AI are entirely parasitic on human capability -- because the training sets for AI are invariably the products not only of individual humans, but the progressive interaction and refinement of cultures and societies -- interesting because that makes AI kind of like a direct interface to the collective unconscious, and if it is dangerous, that is because it is also a summoning grid over this domain.... but I can't help but think this has to be wrongly concieved in the same way that Searle's Chinese Room argument is wrongly conceived. Elsewhere (I think it was in an interview) Searle mentions that he wrote this paper because the people he knew who worked with computers told him that what computers do is simulate, and he wanted to say that you can never do the real thing by simulating it... just as a map, or even a life-size replica of China, is not china. The problem with this way of thinking is that computers are useful because they do real world work, and potentially dangerous because they have real world consequences for good and for ill. Likewise, the problem with the claim that the capabilities of AI are entirely parasitic on human capabilities.... is that it is not clear to me that human capabilities are not parasitic on human capabilities in the same way. Granted, there are still things that feral wolf children can do that AI can't do, but we find AI that can write emails for us far more terrifying than realistic motor control and seeking behavior. I know there are artists who are either worried or pissed off about AI because AI is taking traffic away from their work, but I also expect that this will eventually die down as it transforms art, perhaps analogously to how photography did. At the time this was also a concern because no one was going to want a hyper-realistic painting of a landscape, or as a portrait if a camera could give you that in a fraction of the time and for a fraction of the cost. But photography didn't kill art. It became art. Ultimately "the best" artwork isn't a matter of technique, content, or form; it merely uses these things. It's about truth in the sense of what is most human (at least insofar as art is about us), and weird as this will sound, that truth can be nowhere to be found in its subject matter, yet is immediately apparent in the reflection that art presents to us. What AI calls into question is whether art really is just about what is most human.... and more so, if it isn't, what does it say about us if we don't care about that, and consequently, AI doesn't end up being a threat to human art after all? But at that point the contrast is just weird because in that apathy we would call human art "real art" or perhaps "natural art" and AI art "artificial art" but art is supposed to be a contrasting term to nature and is also the root concept of "artificial". If "artificial art" is not a genuine act of creation, I can only guess that this would be because we do not think of it as a "volitional act of consciousness"... we don't know what any of those words mean, and it is probably for exactly that reason that AI can call our own claims to these aspects into question. And if I'm right, it won't be because AI ends up being intelligent or even conscious or sentient in the truest sense of these words, but because it is artificial.... whatever that means. But if AI ever reaches this point, does it even make sense to call it "artificial" anymore?.... perhaps the first AI rights issue might be to drop pejorative adjectives because if AI becomes a moral agent in its own right, the contrast between "real" and "artificial" is exactly what this would imply, and calling them "artificial" would belie any statements we could make to declare them equal.

[@MattAngiono]

This was EXCELLENT! Curious, have you found your way to the work of John Vervaeke? He has been so influential in my thinking, especially around cognitive psychology and the meaning crisis, which I believe set him up perfect for investigating AI and the implications. He also has some great work around zombies and did a whole deep dive into that years ago. I'd love to hear your thoughts about all his work. He has many conversations with others on his channel as well, so you should look into speaking with him! It would be quite beneficial for you both, I believe! Thanks for this, it's truly one of the most important areas of philosophy at this moment, and I hope we can get it "right"

[@epochphilosophy]

Thanks so much. But I have not. Another person to add to the infinite list! Will definitely take a look!

[@mehowkielan1984]

The problem with Vervaeke is that he seems to think the solution to the meaning crisis is to go back to explaining the world by Christian religion and philosophy. It's hard to take seriously someone who regards Jordan Peterson as a great thinker 😏

[@MattAngiono]

@mehowkielan1984 I agree. For someone who is agnostic, he sure does talk to a lot of religious people. I don't mind it every now and then, but it's a bit excessive for my tastes. Still, I think the other stuff that bridges Eastern and Western philosophy is so good that I'm willing to overlook a lot of it. But I usually skip anything where I see Christianity in the title, lol. I'm sure there's some useful stuff in there, but it's not where I'm ever going to turn for meaning... Taoism, on the other hand, seems to give me exactly what I am looking for, and his approach to that is highly useful, in my opinion

[@Verulam1626]

​@@mehowkielan1984you should see his discussions with Johnathan Pageau. That would help explain what he finds appealing in Christianity. This should not be ignored. Even Peter Thiel has interest in Christianity, even if it is a Girardian kind.

Well, І would disagree about Elon Musk and Twitter. Actually, that was a smooth move: a) basically it is buying a public square, infrastructure of information flow b) look at current moves of Twitter AND what WeChat is in China.

[@FrustrejszynCios]

Yeah, thinking he bought Twitter just for his own ego is as stupid as thinking he bought it to rescue free speech for humanity. He stated himself at least once that he wants to follow WeChat model and make it into a similar all-in-one platform. Which imho is a dystopian level of centralisation.

[@jaminsoncampbell7507]

Transhumanism based on post capitalistic Debord, Baudrillard pure form of Similacre

[@11DaltonB]

I don’t really see the analogy of zombies as “infiltrators” like unionized workers. For 1, zombies aren’t communicating & collaborating to eat the living, they just each individually have the same goal almost by instinct, they’re (usually) not intelligent or aware enough to collaborate. Most animals are smarter than zombies. Which is why I think the zombie apocalypse is often depicted as a virus, because the monsters themselves act like a virus, infect and then your job is done. And 2, in 99/100 zombie stories, no one is fooled that a zombie might be a person. “Infiltration” doesn’t really work if you’re very obviously not what you’re trying to infiltrate. I think a much closer example to the panic over communism is alien invaders replacing humans. Ultimately I think zombies represent the fear of dying, and then your body “living” on and you having no control over that. It’s a bad ending for most people. I think that’s much closer to what zombies represent.

[@benzur3503]

I don’t share your optimism on AI, why would it abolish the priest class and not just concentrate it in the hands of the narcissistic programmers of said AI, making them the holy exclusive communicators with the worshiped beings in the digital clouds?

[@epochphilosophy]

It certainly could centralize power in the hands of bigger idiots. My view on A.I. isn’t inherently optimistic. It’s that abject fear is the default sociology when dealing with A.I. and most of those fears are contingent on ideology around things such as self, autonomy, etc. The one thing that seems clear, in my mind, is that A.I. is going to expose some weird blinders in society, (as well as likely create new ones) with one such ironic blinder being business culture guruship. The power of A.I. isn’t quantitative, (we have computers for that) it’s qualitative, thus potentially really hampering the whole parasitic operation.

[@benzur3503]

@@epochphilosophy I’m not sure current advancements in ai are going to replace the mcmindfulness gurus either. It is inevitably going to be discovered not as an omniscient designer but as a task oriented algorithm.

But then go completely go off the rails. "It's not like we're creating some foreign intelligence capable of things unknown to us" Billions are now being poured in top AI laps that are EXACTLY and EXPLICITLY aiming to do just this. And they're making rapid progress. As for intelligence, it's ultimately about capabilities, though they're strongly correlated. Why are we in charge of planet earth instead of other animals, or Neanderthals? Intelligence. The way you brush intelligence aside is nonsensical.
