A crop of startups is selling stealthy AI-powered recording devices and software that’s becoming increasingly popular. “My general sense is that we should assume we are being recorded at all times,” said Clara Brenner, a partner at venture capital firm Urban Innovation Fund. “Of course, this is a ______ way to live your life.”

Sain juuri loppuun Becky Chambersin "Munkki ja Robotti" -duologian. Kahden lyhyen kirjan verran maanläheistä ja elämänfilosofista hyvän mielen utopiaa.

Kirjan yhteiskuntakuvausta lukiessa mieleen tulee, että meidän pitäisi oppia luopumaan jostakin materiaalisesti, mutta ehkä myös oppia arvostamaan lähiympäristömme ihmisiä ja luontoa enemmän.

Itse olisin mielelläni lukenut näistä kirjoista vielä pidemmät ja pohtivammatkin versiot.

In the new world, people stopped competing for survival. The profession of their dreams
became available not because someone was “lucky”, but because everyone found themselves in their place. The fear of poverty and unemployment disappeared - concepts
that no longer existed. Poverty became a thing of the past, along with diseases caused by uncleanliness, hunger and despair. It was realized that it was easier to teach a person basic hygiene than to start wars.

When humanity realized that there were more than enough resources on the planet for
everyone, a turning point occurred. For the first time in history, there was no longer any
sense in doing evil for the sake of survival. This realization did not come immediately, but it was so powerful that it turned all habitual thinking upside down: every person is needed, every good deed is valuable, and living as a good person is not a feat, but the norm.

Friction and not being touched

The journalist Karen Hao – who published an absolutely fantastic book about OpenAI called “Empire of AI” recently – coined (as far as I know) one of the best terms for describing modern “AI” systems: Everything Machines.

“AI” systems are not framed as specific tools that solve specific problems in specific ways but just as solution in itself: There is nothing “AI” cannot do, if it fails we just failed it by not prompting it right or not building large enough data centers or not waiting for […]
