Fuck AI

Hahaha, I mean yeah, there's definitely some horrible 'what if' scenarios out there. I won't presume to know anywhere near enough to make anything more than a guess at it, but I've seen some polar opposite takes on what would happen.

My big question is "why would they do that?" Like, if money no longer matters and you have infinite labor, why does killing everyone else even matter? There are more resources than anyone could ever use in our solar system that would be trivial to get with infinite robots. Fixing climate change (or at least reversing course) becomes a matter of setting aside some of your infinitely reproducing robots to make efficiency improvements.

The constraints humans have dealt with since evolving just cease to exist if robots can be made to replace labor. Like, the moment a robot can do what a human can do, the entire concept of what even matters as a species completely goes out the window. I'm not saying billionaires will suddenly turn heel and become good if that happens, I'm saying that everything billionaires have been chasing since the invention of currency ceases to have meaning if it does.
