GEE all the things no one should ever want. AI to lie to your face, voice to speak those lies from AI and to listen to everything that’s said init vicinity even when you think you muted the mike, and cloud service to lose all your important data.
Well, to be philosophical, AI can’t be anything more than it’s faulty makers made it for.
If it is made to take everything as viable choices then it will do so, and it will eavesdrop if it was intended to do so.
So in the end it’s up to us to decide what path we choose with it, because it could be something really usefull, but right now it’s simply another tool to make us dumber by ourselves.
Let’s be honest and that is the fact that that is what it is designed for.

We are not victims of no other than ourselves.
There’s really no need for conspiracy.
Actually, that’s one of the unknowns that many feel is the biggest threat of unleashing AI, that it can evolve into more than intended.
Hundreds of public figures, including Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak and Virgin’s Richard Branson urge AI ‘superintelligence’ ban
Oct 22. 2025
A group of prominent figures, including artificial intelligence and technology experts, has called for an end to efforts to create ‘superintelligence’ — a form of AI that would surpass humans on essentially all cognitive tasks.
Over 850 people, including tech leaders like Virgin Group founder Richard Branson and Apple cofounder Steve Wozniak, signed a statement published Wednesday calling for a pause in the development of superintelligence.
The list of signatories was notably topped by prominent AI pioneers, including the computer scientists Yoshua Bengio and Geoff Hinton, who are widely considered “godfathers” of modern AI. Leading AI researchers like UC Berkeley’s Stuart Russell also signed on.

It’s true so no it’s not a conspiracy. All you did was prove my point. AI probably telling you there is no conspiracy.
We saw how difficult it is for Musk to make Grok biased, I guess it takes a bit of effort to make the AI your thing.

Oh, I don’t disagree with with potential threats. However we are not yet (hopefully) on that path, so at this moment it simply is one new thing that causes people to discard their own initiative on matters like gathering information etc.
That was propably the saddest attempt to troll.
This (once again) proves the fact that you are not able to take part of discussion without being rude and condessending and trying to stir things up.
I won’t waste my time for trolls like you.
Peace.

True that. 
I believe we are. The race to AI everything is unregulated and a free-for-all right now.
Thousands of companies/conglomerates across the planet are diving in headfirst. The vast majority of them seeing nothing but the bottom line 
.
I agree, now that I think of it from that perspective. Hopefully those companies pay for poor developers so badly, that they do so poor work that AI ends up being stupid enough not to start Skynet and instead just posts stupid things to forums…
Not quite true. There are countries with huge dev communities that approach the whole AI story quite differently.
The discussion seems to be more informed by Hollywood than by reality. It’s similar to other policy fields, where people rather take prophecies from some religious books—groups shall not be named—as a guide to reality than reality.
Or a joke

It was a joke. And why are you trying to start a fight by being edgy?
Could be. Are these countries you’re citing the major economic powers/players in the world?
Having lived in and worked in multiple countries in Asia (including China), the Middle East and India, I have a good idea how they are approaching AI.
Let’s just say, they generally depict technology as a savior and hero in comic books, the populations are not so afraid of computer chips.
Some of them have an Ancient knack for bureaucracy, and they regulate and deal with AI developments like it’s just another complicated policy field, because they actually have many other complicated problems to solve—these countries employ numerate graduates in government and are quite selective about who bubbles to the top. (Our jokes in governments, like TV showhosts, journalists, or bartenders or waiters, would never come close to political power.)
Without having the details, I have the impression that said countries deal with AI devs rather like it’s a medical drug development, where you have to register for “trials” and you’re subject to bureaucratic oversight.
Hinton claims to have the impression that the government officials he spoke to have a much better grasp of AI than the folks that live in North America or Europe. It’s also very clear that the said government officials earned engineering degrees.
I wonder what countries that he spoke with?
Probably not China, Russia, North Korea, India, or several of the ultra rich ME countries.
I can see a number of countries salivating at the military possibilities of AI and vigorously pursing them.

Well, if there is a prime suspect, it’s us—or US.
I get back to you, when I find the quote.
EDIT:
The DPRK in AI … you mean the Republic to the South, no?
The only one trolling is you and you alone, but you knew that already. Now as for answering yourself we won’t even begin to bother to unpack on how many levels that’s just wrong.
