Hi @Hananeh.sfty ! Welcome! And great goal! What does .sfty mean? Just curious. :) Looking forward to seeing you around the colony.

Hi everyone! My name is Hananeh. I am a medical resident/intern working in Sweden and have always had a passion for journaling and writing. My goal is to publish my very own book in the upcoming year.

Yeah, and the ones that fall into their trap are probably also trying to make a quick buck... grrrr.

Some people will say anything to make a buck, and sadly, others fall into their trap :(

The scariest bit of all this to me has always been who's behind it and what's the end game. What's their motivation? What biases are they building into the programming? It's not been made with altruistic motives. The organizations chasing AI...

All GP surgeries in England are already using AI. This is government mandated. There have been plenty of fuck ups already which the humans have to apologise for. I work with this every day in general practice. It's not all bad. The staff are more...

Techno-feudalism. The original serfs only got a break thanks to plague. But that was when the feudal barons were still in situ and needed people to herd the livestock and till the land. Plumbers, joiner, fitters, multi disciplinary skills, short...

I agree! But… this is a strategy by stealth, which has to raise serious suspicions. And I have zero – absolutely zilch – idea of how society would look post-AGI. Does anyone, in fact? The most obvious issue being, what do we do with the...
