AI placed high on my "Patrick Wood's 2024 Forecast" posted on The Quickening Report yesterday, and you can read it there. Level-headed AI experts have weighed in: "AI already poses catastrophic risks to a functional society."  I concur. So, it's only fair that we give AI a chance to respond. Several questions were given to several Chatbots, and here are a few highlights from the article below. (My comments in red.)

AI systems might start reasoning by themselves – They will try to trick the world into thinking this.

Biotechnology will 'upgrade' humans – AI and BigPharma are already upgrading the human race, whether it wants it or not or knows it or not. 

Dawn of personalized medicine – This is an extension of "upgrading."

Election hacking warning – Is AI saying that previous elections were also hacked? Now, we can expect the hacking to be done by AI itself without human assistance.

Considering that AI has been heavily sponsored by DARPA and the military, is it turning into the ultimate weapon leveled at the human race? Ah, Technocrats; they are a crafty bunch.

As AI fills the Internet, may it choke on its own exhaust. ? TN Editor
