RE: AI - the ultimate hubristic precipice?

We always imagine the worst… we’re permeated by all those science fiction films where the scenario is apocalyptic and the machines rebel against humans… The idea of AI as a tool, like a knife, is what I’ve always thought. Before the knife, sharp stones were used to cut, to hunt, to defend against danger… but I think of AI not only as a tool but also as something that can be enslaved. It’s there at all hours, ready to solve whatever you ask… haha… or is it not slavery because it’s AI? Haha… perhaps it’s a bit silly, but maybe the future looks good for humans. They could have AI slaves and devote themselves to the fine arts, to sport, to travelling… perhaps money won’t be necessary, because the AIs will work to provide for every human being on the planet. They’ll have integrated software to ensure there’s no overexploitation in whatever they do… ah, I was overlooking the fact that AIs can also devote themselves to art and teaching… we’ll have art schools with both human and non-human teachers. But humans will do it because they love it, not for remuneration… in the end… we’re not going to see any of this. We don’t know what will happen… but I suppose our ideas are what create reality. We should stop being so apocalyptic.
