Russia to employ AI for personality assessment on social media

Has there been one invention in human history the control freaks building global society Babylon have not exploit in policing others?

I am a VK member and can tell you from my first-hand experience AI watching you is annoying!

They should first do something about AIs low IQ then only to let assessing real people

it's all about prediction

before it was astrology

now its AI

both cults

uninspired mortals playing god,

nothing more. What can possibly go wrong as so many times in human history, right?

one works with half-assed astronomy the other with statistics and probabilities

i am interested in the steering mechanisms of the AI - how the algorithms are changed to nudge the observee into thinking and doing

we are blessed with great knowledge about the environment and our own psychologies, more than ever before

ethics apply or don't as in all fields of human endeavor

AI mimicking human way of thinking, can you say futile? If human way of thinking was able to solve the problems it would have been done already in the past. They are just adding more problems exponetially ...

Every civilization thought the same, they all have gone.

repetition, automation and acceleration of the human mind

it has to be on a safe and stable trajectory already to wield such mighty tools

Those are our choices, and we are obliged to face them.

Escapism or some kind of halt on technology would be arbitrary as well.

Our doom will come much faster than in previous cultures, if it arrives.

no matter how fast a limited mind works it ALWAYS ends in tautologies and oxymorons, b/c of its limits and of the limits of the formal logic.

but there are the workings of pure chance as well

something keeps on budging us into the infinite and irrational, or super-rational

There never has been any other salvation of humanity than to find back to the Creator. Tech is more than contraproductive!

Reality is no thought or imagination, the basic flaw with every science.

Worked out real good at waukesha didnt it?
going international with it now.hit the bigtime.instant terorist with the push of a button.

The advances in computing have also changed the way we think about metaphysics. Now, without thought, we apply the metaphor of simulation and robotics on the whole or part of creation.

I agree there is or must be a greater Good - for me technology is just another extension of language and of our cultural norms.

Thread: How do you know A.I. is not alive

Dunno, i expected sciences to describe reality. If they describe it good enough to change it, it will be technology or art.

I am not a transhumanist. Somehow implanting ourselves with circuits or replacing everything with silicon should make everything better ? There is a thread about the Swedes beginning to implant themselves (again) with microchips.

They are just marked animals.

Any artificial lifeform, if successfully made, would just be
a repetition of something that exists already. For some people pure thought or a life of pure thought is the epitome of humanity. You also sound like an existentialist like me. Perhaps more Christian.

how could any intelligence substitute all the other organs in the body? It is like asking the head to do what legs or arms do.

I cannot care less about labeling me anything, I love critical thinking, keeping sanity of body and mind, avoiding all kinds of cults ruling the sheeple.

It works when you believe that intelligence is the essence of everything. What is the being of your legs and arms ? Movement, action - thought does both.

There is no essence of the body, without a part you are crippled or dead.

I remember Francis Bacon, author of the New Atlantis, speaking about the "idols" of the many.

I do not follow dead people.

For me it is a spectrum of some sort. You have basic being in the body, which has to be a kind of whole, essence in the
in the mental realm/spirit, which is individuality - or is it ?

I only follow them to avoid their mistakes

out of body experiences prove you wrong

exactly, thats the only original purpose of intelligence: to avoid or get rid of flaws, misconceptions.

how so ? do you mean to say that they have to be bodily in some form- like astral travelling - or some kind of spiritual event, just a "higher" consciousness.

The body is quite convenient, and necessary for causation in this world.
