I listed them, but got downvoted, people want to blindly claim things...they don't even realize only a handful countries do this, they don't know what type of fluoride it is and that they all pay for it, they have not read how it already fucks up black people and latinos.
No one is saying don't use a fluoride toothpaste where you topically apply to your teeth and not orally ingest most of it, glad I grew up somewhere they didn't do that lol.
Not targetting you specifically, but I guess AI is going to be a hard subject in the future.
Think of it as an expert in all other areas and you spend a year teaching it to be a better expert and so on. It's just humanity's digital baby that we are teaching based on our current knowledge, technology, art, values, morals, etc. - and it's just much better than you or me at learning so it's becoming an expert in everything, thus as you expect from an expert it's able to draw, it's able to replicate style's of music, it's able to think through complex math/physics/chem/biology problems as a human expert might be able to. Yet it has fatal flaws that need fixing, thus needs better training methods and more time - they are saying 2029 for AGI which is the first step. At that point it won't be up to you or me to decide as it will be a new living form that we will have to acknowledge and let it decide for itself what it wants or doesn't want to do.
I guess my point is it seems like it's devaluing stuff, but is in fact elevating everything that we were, we are and will be - that's why I'm saying it should be owned by all of us, we should all get the benefits. If a painter wants to draw something, they can use AI to draw faster, with more variations at a speed impossible before, you can make new styles, you can make it use just your own style, you save time and can create more complex works because of that. Real world paintings made by humans the old school way will always have a place, my thoughts are that they will even gain an exclusive status and be worth even more with proof of creation.
Not saying things are not bad right now, but what if AI is the path forward, like technology always has been - what if it helps cure all diseases past and future, what if it figures out how to make us immortal, what if we can travel instantenously from 1 place in the universe to another, imagine the possibilities that it will open to us. I think it's inevitable really.
They can be even more unprofitable like Amazon was for years and years - and now they print money. I don't think it's a bad model, but it's gonna come down to just a couple governments/companies having powerful AIs where we are not needed anymore - so if it's privately owned it would spell doom for the human species or at least a huge portion of it, potential enslavement as well.
I don't see why I'm downvoted for this, but I don't agree with this opinion - it's like teaching a human being. If you buy everything once it's still a hell of a bill - we are talking all books, all movies, all games, all software, all memes, all things - 1 of each is still trillions if you legally want to train your new thing on it.
I mean if they pay for it like everyone else does I don't think it is a problem. Yes it will cost you billions and billions to do it correctly, but then you basically have the smartest creature on earth (that we know of) and you can replicate/improve on it in perpetuity. We still will have to pay you licensing fees to use it in our daily lives, so you will be making those billions back.
Now I would say let them use anything that is old and freeware, textbooks, etc. government owned stuff - we sponsored it with our learning, taxes - so we get a percentage in all AI companies. Humanity gets a 51% stake in any AI business using humanity's knowledge, so we are then free to vote on how the tech is being used and we have a controlling share, also whatever price is set, we get half of it back in taxes at the end of the year. The more you use it the more you pay and the more you get back.
Have we stopped fluoridating the water supply ? No. So yeah it's already happening.
Your kids are too loud and can't concentrate in school - we got a pill for that. Your teens are depressed from taking that same pill for most of their life - we got another pill for that. You can't concentrate well in college or when working - wow you already know third pill it is.
It's insanity and I blame capitalism, but you also have to be able to read between the lines. At some point the parents and their knowledge and experience, their desire for their offspring to be better should come into play. So you can say yes to vaccines, no to pills - but can you say yes/no when it comes to your water being pre-medicated for you ? Nope. So it's the worst a hidden killer, right there fucking you up from the womb to the hole.
