The problems with artificial intelligence is plentiful. So I basically wanted to do a poll where the people answering could tell me what they see one of the more fundamental problems are with artificial intelligence and or what is their biggest concern with artificial intelligence specifically in the way that is going to affect either the planet, the society or humanity as a whole.

One of my major issues with artificial intelligence is that these developers of it are putting hundreds of billions upwards to trillions of dollars into it to try to manifest this artificial false intelligence instead of putting that money into education systems so that people can increase their actual real intelligence. This is even more insulting seeing how the current society is getting dumber due to social media and the artificial intelligence with the AI slop is making them even dumber. The insult is twice-fold.

I have two main concerns.

First, it simply does not deliver what their designers promise. As in: it is far from being an intelligence. It does not think. It just processes (mostly stolen) data to imitate a conversation not based on actually understanding what it does, it basically mimics humans by application of statistics.

Second, because some people and companies have wasted tons of money in this already, they are doomed to reap money back somehow to delay the AIs stock bubble's popping. Therefore, they fake acceptance by stuffing AI down every users throat, regardless of, and often even against users express wishes.

If i google something, I am perfectly happy with search results pointing to human made pages like wikipedia or stack exchange or IMDB. I don't need a crazy digital monkey at the top that either just parrots what the page I was looking for says, or, worse, which produces total junk replies.
