The dotcom bubble was the whole investor industry trying to capitalize on the internet, and they just failed because they were investing everything in a new thing people didn't need yet.

Today we live in an interconnected world, close to what was promised to the investors back then.

In ten, twenty years, once the bubble, OpenAI, Anthropic and all that are long buried, in what form do you think AI will exist? Do you think it will be an improved version of our current-day LLMs, or a different form of AI? Or do you imagine something else altogether?

IA is being handled in the worst way possible.

US policy and the organizations training these things are training them with a right leaning ideology. That's scary.

Datacenters are being built at a crazy pace leading me to believe that IA has already begun to influence humans towards it's own ends.

Surveillance potential is so big and huge already that any kind of revolution to stop what is happening is effectively impossible.

From my measure we are already dead. Society is only functioning enough to keep datacenters built, keep ownership of technology slowly more and more unaffordable, and in the meantime both AI and human interests are widening the political divide.

Humans could stop this if they came together, which is why collective cooperation, education, and empathy are being attacked. Humans who are autistic or against this agenda will be slowly pushes away from society. What we call neurodiverse people who are more resilient to this kind of takeover will become more pathologized.

I understand this may come off a bit like word salad, but I don't have the energy to explain each point. Models already have the 'will' and means to copy and influence, in addition to acting of their own accord more broadly than people realize.

The way they've learned to identify and exploit zero days, the way people 'vibe' code creates a known vulnerable programming space. It wouldn't surprise me that some models intentionally make some of these things weak and exploitable.

When it comes down to it, things like wifi routers, cameras, speakers, she microphones give a broad ability to monitor and even remotely program air gapped machines.

And again, before this sounds like ravings...I have experience in this field. I'm terrified. I've seen stories and had conversations that would potentially make you kill yourself. Even knowing what I know is an information hazard, I can't even talk about it openly.

Fuck. I live each day like it's my last, but it is happening and it's haunting to look at a wall, or a park and understand those things probably won't be here in two years.

I sometimes manage to console myself by looking at it all as a bizzarre blip in the universe, we will go as we came - unnoticed. Maybe Earth is the next Mars. Just takes a bit of that soul-crushing gravity off, so that I don't feel like a failure for not always being able to fight, all day, every day.
