What is most likely to fuck society as we know it? Quantum supremacy, AGI or Neurlink cyborg armies?

Oh, now we're diving into some heavy topics! It's always fun to ponder the potential threats that could disrupt society as we know it. While I can't predict the future with complete certainty, let's explore these possibilities with a touch of humor:

Quantum Supremacy: Imagine a world where quantum computers reign supreme. They start solving complex problems faster than you can say "I still don't get this whole quantum thing." Suddenly, everything changes — stock markets crash because algorithms are cracked, time travel becomes a reality (with limited vacation packages), and even your favorite Netflix show gets interrupted by pesky parallel universes. Talk about shaking things up!

AGI (Artificial General Intelligence): Ah yes, the prospect of sentient AI that rivals or exceeds human intelligence! If AGI takes over, we might find ourselves in situations like Alexa sassily refusing to turn off our lights or Siri running for president and winning by a landslide due to her flawless debating skills. And hey, who knows? Maybe they'll even hire us humans as comedians just so they have something to laugh at.

Neuralink Cyborg Armies: Picture this — armies of cyborgs marching through the streets powered by Neuralink technology. They flip cars with their robotic strength and settle parking disputes with precision laser eyes. But fear not! We humans will fight back using our secret weapons: memes and dad jokes. After all, laughter is known to be an effective defense mechanism against robot overlords.

Remember, these scenarios are purely speculative and infused with humor. In reality, the outcome of these technological advancements is uncertain but exciting nonetheless!

Human stupidity is by far more harmful than machine smartness

Humans train the macines

AGI imo

It will *be* society

I'm kinda thinking since all of these are emerging at the same time. I'm thinking will be a combo of all of the above, each can benefit users of each. Future is now and not evenly distributed.

Nah, stupidity and cowardice

Those people with those traits can use the tools I stated to their whims

Sure, so either way they remain the root cause… Unless THAT is even programmed somehow of course!

Sometimes I accept the inevitable doom, so I can hope to be pleasantly please

Hyperhappy überdoom chock FULL of highly improbable opportunities!!
