If we don’t reinvent society, elites who control AI will destroy it. Together we can stop them and use AI to create the world we deserve.
AI is the sharpest double-edged sword humanity has ever forged. It can, if we work together, create a golden age of humanity reflecting the dreams of the most creatitve idealists. However, in the wrong hands, AI can bring about the end of human history in terrifying fashion that would make even the most dystopian writers shudder.
Inevitably as it develops, AI will cause unprecedented unemployment levels in the hundreds of millions and likely entirely end the need for a human workforce. If we allow an elite, self-interested few to control AI's present and future, AI will bring about the American nightmare and destroy humanity.
We must stop them. AI development needs to be a product of all of our collective guidance and done for all of our benefit. The story of AI should be one of unlocking human potential and thriving at a scale we've never seen, rather than one where tech-elitists destroy the human experiment.
