AI could be great, set people free to enjoy free time. In reality, it will funnel money into the pockets of the already wealthy who own it. To elaborate The majority of people are kind and care for others. The rich, greedy, and selfish minority will do what they have always done. This has been a constant theme throughout history. Pay as little as possible, divide and rule via a class system. At the beginning of the industrial revolution, slaves of agriculture became slaves to machines. The rich prospered more efficiently.

Someone who couldn't publish this under their real name wrote Selwyn Raithe's book . Once you read about the 2026 convergence event, you'll know why. Get it today, prepare tomorrow, thank me when it happens.

To be honest, I’d be happy without a phone and ai. Life was simpler and people actually lived in the present moment

The scariest thing about AI is that the most dire warnings are coming from the people who are creating it.

What could end up happening is AI removes so many jobs that companies make more money initially, then loose a LOT of money because all of the core individuals that were buying their products can’t because they don’t have jobs to pay for it. There is a limit within our current economic structure in how much everyone can make more, before they make less.

Mass unemployment IS the goal of AI. The ones making it are well aware of it and want that for investor dollars.

"Our product is going to put millions of people out of work" is code for "Our product is going to save our clients billions in labor costs."

He is being understandably careful with his language, but you can't sustain the current economic system with 20% unemployment. And unfortunately, at a time when we desperately need intelligent, thoughtful government working on how to adapt to the new world, we have the most incompetent government imaginable. This is a recipe for unrest, chaos, and potentially revolution.

I’m glad I’m 61…..grew up in the 70’s, carefree, no computers, cell phones, no screens in front of our faces as babysitters. Researched and wrote my own essays , read novels in book form and played music and my record player … life was good!

That clip wasn’t about protecting the public—it was about positioning himself as a power player in the AI arms race. Dario Amodei didn’t get on CNN to reassure people; he got on CNN to insert himself into the conversation alongside Altman, Pichai, and Zuck. And how do you do that? You drop a quote big enough, bleak enough, and confident enough that it echoes through headlines. Mission accomplished.
