Thinking about how the average person’s reaction to AI is fear because they understand that reducing necessary labor doesn’t actually help capitalist society. It puts the masses out of work and enriches a tiny minority of capitalists. Silver lining is this can be a lever for increasing class consciousness.
Using AI to reduce labor could be awesome if we lived in a Jetsons universe where technological innovation actually benefited everyone and we decided to just work less.
I am sure governments are already using or planning to use AI video for political ends. Like why wouldn’t Israel use it to make a video of conspicuously pro-Hamas people doing something evil. Or someone posts a fake sex tape of Biden/Trump.
Not good.
