Having average people think they’re geniuses because they’re parroting what an LLM told them isn’t a good thing. Especially considering the fact that the average person isn’t really aware of the biases AI has.

I’ve already seen so many people post screenshots of what ChatGPT said to back their claim in an argument as if AI is some sort of objective neutral source.

You think it’s hard trying to get people to understand mainstream news will twist the facts according to their biases? Imagine how hard it will be to convince people the biases/agendas AI has.

There are many benefits associated with AI. But to ignore the negative aspects and potential outcomes it makes bring is naive and dangerous. Optimism about the Internet bringing about a more connected world made many people blind to its potential applications to bring about a surveillance state. By the time people started speaking about how governments are infringing on the privacy of their citizens, it was already too late.

Those who say AI will bring about a post-scarcity utopia are naïve.

When societies have a surplus of a good that is high in demand, they rarely reorganize to ensure everyone gets what they need.

Consider food production. The globe already has a surplus food production. We currently feed enough to feed 10 billion people with a global population of 8 billion. There is a food surplus, yet millions of people starve each year.

Also, consider who is developing AI. Are these people who want to improve the human condition, or do they seek to enrich and accumulate power for themselves and their clique? and

They want you to own nothing and be happy.

You won’t own your home, your car, your phone, and now they want you to not even own the food on your plate.

It sounds crazy now, but soon it will be normalized to borrow money to buy lunch and the masses will think we are crazy for not doing so.

Just like the keyboard resulted in the degradation of hand writing, AI will result in the degradation of critical thinkings as the new generations grow up outsourcing their thought process to AI.

The scary thing is that as a society we will only be able to know collectively we went too far only after having gone too far. Sadly, it may be too late then.

What must happen for the Muslim

world to wake up from its slumber?

We have to be serious and critical about what we are currently doing wrong. Civilizational revival requires us to take a hard long in the mirror.

Proficiency. Whatever your craft is become a master of it.

Similar to Twitter blue check marks, because how can you feel comfortable linking your financial details to your Twitter account? nostr:note17cj9svg537wtlcthknwr3egae06rnr7e88p0mhlz86pyzcgtw4qsn4yslx

Zionism is like a snake that eats its own tail. The more radical the Zionists become, the quicker their apartheid project will fall.

Governments around the world are making attempts to put borders on the Internet, and America is the latest to implement such policies.

Banning social media sites encourages the average social media user to actively look for alternatives, look into softwares on how to by-pass bans, and become more aware/concerned about government overreach.

These social media bans will not only fail long-term, it might actually spark a revival of decentralizing the Internet and a return to an Internet resembling the early Internet.

Trump accelerates the decline of US hegemony.

The strength of America post WW2 comes from its network of allies. Through that network, the US enjoys the benefits of a global empire while minimizing the cons of actually running one.

Trumps obsession with tariffs and trade wars attacks the core of what the American post-WW2 order which is easy access to trade.

I’ve often called BRICS a failed project, but the Trump presidency offers a unique opportunity to start the foundations of a new global trade network that isn’t dependent on the United States.

Will that be through BRICS though? Probably not. But time will tell.

Skipping the industrialization phase and going straight to digital power would work for states with smaller populations but the ones with larger populations still need to properly industrialize in addition to developing the digital economy.

You can’t have an extraction based economy and import everything and then wonder why no one takes you seriously on the international stage.

They are not mutually exclusive though, the larger countries can tech-max and open up the factories.

I vaguely remember Trump was discussing buying Greenland during his 1st term. nostr:note1896rkg0sevh7ea5m8q6ufctyns2x0z7x9uypry9hukzc83ut52pqcf6d0v

Currently figuring out how this site works.

Space colonies will probably use some sort of cryptocurrency as their main form of currency.
