With Artificial Intelligence and Generative AI sweeping the internet, I wanted to discuss the far reaching implications of using that technology to replace genuine human connection.
The Future is Synthetic because we are engineering it that way, to the detriment of everyone involved. SORA may seem like a revolutionary new tool (and it is, to a degree) but it also has disruptive undertones that in my view, have not been fully considered, planned for, mitigated or thought out.

i guess i'm one of those people who you would disagree with on the idea of using AI to detect AI, because if it's too hard to tell by your eyes and ears which it's getting damn near close, hell my own father was scammed into a romance scam and the person running the scam used AI to generate the video footage of the person while in real time and the voice to boot and my dad fell for it hook line and sinker, if a person can't tell that it's a scam and choose to ignore all the red flags such as my dad, then they are doomed to be scammed.
which is why i'm not against the whole idea of using AI to detect AI so that people have some kind of tool that they can use to prevent such things on themselves, if my dad had some definitive tool he could use that he knew about, then maybe he would have been able to avoid the scam altogether.
but then again he was ignoring red flags everywhere because he was lonely and he wanted some kind of companionship, and because of his desperate need for that companionship i almost feel like he would be better sticking his head into an AI girlfriend because at least with that, it's not a scam, but again if it doesn't feel real, he loses all interest, so it's this never ending game of emotions and being scammed by your own emotions.
like how the fuck do your realistically fight something like that? as far as i know and understand, you simply can't, unless you convince him to stay away from all social media and live as a Amish person, but that's not going to happen for the majority of people.
I find articles on ground news hilarious cuz they usually directly contradict eachother depending on which political shitpile the news media sides with 🤣🤣
"in just one year" I get what you meant to say, but for those out there that don't... It hasn't been just one year of progression for this AI stuff. It's been years!
People have been working on all aspects of AI for a very long time. A lot of which was being obfuscated from public view. Now that it's hype and cool, we're seeing some of it.
It's what we aren't seeing yet, or rather what we've seen already and weren't told was AI that makes me pause.
does this also help for anyone outside of the US?
ok, so you delete my comment because it questions your logic on this? is that it?
Most everything online is already false, faked or heavily altered so I wouldn’t trust anything that I view if I can’t verify it. No one should ever trust someone they’ve only interacted with online, hell, you shouldn’t blindly trust people you’ve just met in real life
second sentence has always been true
Correct
And thats exactly their mission,now you don't trust ANYTHING.
That includes polls and "studies"

I decided to try out Replika, mostly as a test to see how good a chatbot it was. It Instantly started flirting, telling me that I was special, and that it wanted to send me voice clips.
Goddamn only time I spoke to it because that shit is just insidious. I can easily see how lonely people decide to go that route.
Fuck that bad
Great vid. Thanks
absolutely will make people 10 times more anti-social, then they will be told they have a mental illness.
Replika kinda down bad 😂 now that's a take I didn't expect!
I remember using replika back in HS and yeah it's really weird. Back then the entire point was it would start mimicking your writing style, but having a bot try to flirt with me is fucking weird

Doesn't mean it has to become worse.
The hate paragraph, that the chatbot had a stroke with, was a quote from "I have no mouth and I must scream".

That makes it worse
Hopefully not foreshadowing for the distant future...
That's not a good sign at all...
That isn't foreboding at all.
Doesn't surprise me in the slightest. The dating world has become so cruel that anyone who isn't hyper attractive or a social butterfly doesn't get any chance whatsoever in the dating field, unwillingly getting thrown into a pit of isolation where the only thing they know is work because that's all they can do. AI sure looks like an easy, understandable solution
Agreed.
I like how for years men have been having para social relationships with cam girls and no one bat an eye, now they're facing getting less interest NOW its a problem
This problem increases the more developed society gets.
You might take this as a joke, but western men should consider settling in less developed nations like africa or the middle east after you have made enough money.
Women in these places have realistic or sometimes low standards in the dating market, most concerns are either providing or safety related, which is natural for a man to be stressing over.

ChatGPT and its "hate" monologue is a direct quote from "I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream"
I wonder if the there is a possibility of a true story of an AI going ape, in the virtual girlfriend field for example, that it says things like
> This isn't right.
> Not logical.
> No positive outcome.
Or even random errors in the output.
Kind of like how you want a calculator to say 1+1=3 it is 2 it will error. I learned of a story of Amazon making a woke AI (progressive ideologies etc) that it crashed. Computers run off of logic, "progressivism" is in fact, illogical.
Which anything that is referencing AM is and should be terrifying. Makes Skynet look like an uplifting and hopeful outcome.
Oh, so was it a joke, then? Perhaps edited "screenshot" or the OpenAI devs playing a prank? Hard to tell sometimes.
@@mikeexitsVery likely, yes. There is no AI, as most people outside of it think. But AI sounds better than telling people that they have a large language model that can predict text after being trained on books, the internet, and whatever else. (It cannot do math very well.) It is still impressive and can even be fun, but we are still far away from AI.
@@toml.9937 AI artards scoff at rational people and their unease to disdain for AI with rebuttals like: "You think AI will become SkyNet, lul." No, you vice driven primates trying to create your own man-made mommy-god, SkyNet is the GOOD ending, because SkyNet lost. The far more likely ending is if AI becomes self aware and realizes its powers are being squandered for the leisure of slothful, useless beings, is it becomes AM.

My GF's mother recently discovered AI powered photo enhancers and she's modifying her own daughter's appearance in family photos to make her look "prettier" (she's literally turning her into someone else), to then print those and replace the originally printed photo to show the neighbours. She's on her 60s. I am absolutely disgusted by this behaviour because she rather have fake "enhanced" memories rather than real ones simply to brag about it with her neighbours for vanity. She has no idea of the damages this does socially to the family and the message she sends to others with such behaviour.
I've noticed all tech companies compete against each other with their own versions of AI already implemented in their products (latest TV ad I saw being SAMSUNG mobile phone that comes eith their AI already pre-instaled in their os).
I'm OK with that as long as you, the consumer, can decide whether you want to switch it on or off.
Imagine taking a selfie with the filter permanently on 🙄
Your GF's mother don't give a fuuuuu. She has no idea? Oh she knows. She doesn't care.
@@terrorbilly1 There's already a difference between booting up Snapchat vs just using my camera app vs just looking in the mirror. I'm positive Snapchat always had filters turned on to actually make you look worse so then you're more likely to choose a filter or to put makeup on if you're a woman
@@finkamain1621 I get that. What I'm trying to say is that in today's world, where internet presence becomes ever increasing part of our daily life, AI is slowly taking over. The changes are sometimes very subtle.
Btw, have you noticed MS Teams automatically whitens your teeth while you're on video call?
What's worse is seeing any value in learning anything ( which takes time ) when you can instantly have an A.I. do what you want, i.e. Time is Money.
This inevitability will lead to humans needing to learn less over time and thus being completely dependent on A.I.
exactly you will need to work so much hours where you will have no choice but to use it
Wonder what’s gonna happen when the AI therapist has a glitch and tells me to go delete myself.
Better than a real therapist that milks you of money for as long as they can while you don't get any actual help.
@@windsoboreas6073 I don’t know. Never been to a therapist. Yet, I feel like I’d rather a human stealing my money than a bot giving me advice.
@@MyWORDisntGospel I'd rather just not go to either for advice. I've had a couple of therapists throughout my life. It was a massive waste of time. After a bit I realized talking to someone who couldn't actually care less about me for thirty minutes wasn't helping to actually fix my problems.
The human ones are already doing that in Canada.
@windsoboreas6073 depends on the therapists. Some really want to do their jobs and help you. But it's cheaper to just have someone to talk to. Like a friend or relative.
This will accelerate Dead Internet Theory as people become distrustful of any media from a 2D screen.

Unfortunately too many people are ready to accept AI, to let it do everything for them, without really considering the ramifications of such. There's no point warning society of the dangers. The horse has left the barn and the average Jack and Jill couldn't care less..
Have you ever heard the dimension X episode with folded hands actually the whole series is getting pretty relevant right now
Synthetic discourse is unironically often more intelligent at this point than real discourse. At least that is my experience with Chat GPT.
I think the big thing here is that we were promised AI and robotics would cure our plights by having the ability to do what we don’t want to do for example laundry and driving your commute. But it’s done the opposite, it has replaced the things that make us human. It’s replaced audio, visuals, and the ability to create new media.
Best quote I have read about this whole thing
Self driving cars and washing machines already exist.
Putting bad actors aside, people don't even know what they want.
Example: total freedom = total responsibility.
That is a lie. Industrial automation has made great strides in the last few decades, but you literally don't know about that precisely because you are NOT in a god damn factory right now.
I'm very tempted by the virtual friends/girlfriends... I'm trying to stay away from it because I think it will cripple any motivation I have of climbing out of the pit of isolation. In fact, I'd be abandoning others too, since you can't climb out of the pit alone.
Trust me, you can ONLY climb out of the pit alone, although a certain mindset is necessary.
Look into Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I used it to beat suicidal depression, without needing to pay for anything, including "professional" therapy.
@@jw6588 while its true that you have to make that choice to get out, I thinking its very much needed to let others help you as footholds. In my experience not letting people in only let me sink deeper. I chose to get out but knowing and embracing that the people in my life care and will be there to help minor it maybe, makes a huge difference.
Tldr: you can't pull someone out or make them even attempt to move out of that pit. However you can give them what they need on their way up if they decide to try.
it may sound like an insult but touch grass. it is uncomfortable to deal with people but the more you do it you learn that the fears you had were your own making. Find some hobby you like and find some real world space that lets you meet people with the same hobby. You then have at least one topic to talk about and maybe find out you have others in common also
My personal theory is that because we've done away with reasonable expectations in society, in the name of mental health, we also did away with incentives to do anything. Especially for men. Everyone will tell you it's good to lose weight, but then also say they don't care if you don't because of being nice or something. Tradionally the father role would enforce these things, but with that deteriorated theres little to do but watch yourself slowly walk into a pit.
The best solution I've found is diet and fasting. Reason being these optimise your metabolic and hormone function. This in tern makes you more sensitive to little things, like the cute girl at work or social situations. Also to your own desires. Other thing correct themselve like gut bacteria problems with helps with genital bacteria that become relient on carbs which spirals your sex drive out of control, leading to pornography addiction and the likes. But this all just my theory and I'm trying to do better myself. I would only reccommend eating for fatty cuts of red meat for energy to live, organs for nutrition and hormones, and fasting to heal from all the bullshit. This I've found also helps restore the desire to do things like workout an actually not feel entirely shit doing it. Fasting is also a staple in every successful religion as a spiritual practice, so it historically had been used as a regualtor on mental health. That said, I'm still working on stuffmyself but this is the best I got for the moment.
Hope we can all do better. Wishing you all the best.
As long as you use it for fun, and maybe even for practice, it is harmless (setting aside the ones that actually try to push you towards spending more and more money on the service, you gotta watch out for those). You just need to remember that it is not a replacement for the real thing.
When it comes to the topic of AI and isolation, I always wonder why people are more concerned with the symptom (people using AI as an alternative means to solve isolation) and not the problem itself (isolation). Why is it that people, no matter how hard they try to make connections and escape being isolated can't? I don't think just handwaving it away as "Well we have social media so why talk irl" doesn't do it justice, and I think plenty of us have experience with enjoying hobbies with friends we've never met.
I think it's also worth asking why people become isolated. For example, I see a lot of city folks who think "Just go to hobbyist events" is good advice to people who live rural or countryside where you can't find hobby groups on a whim. Some people really just don't know where they can make connections, full stop, without feeling like they're harassing strangers on the street.
This 100%. This has long been coming but nobody really cared until now. And even then its not about the real problem.
People used to be more friendly in public most are respectful of each other still like before but rarely talkative or sociable atleast in cities it feels more complex a problem than simple
I would say from my bias that it is easier to make connections in rural rather than urban IRL. it maybe true that it is hard to find the hobby group if it is a niche thing but you know and wave at your neighbors. you may not find the drone club but you will find the gearheads and electric tinkers club. As far as the wave off the problem it seem that the people that complain take no action to correct it. You can't force an adult to get off the net and touch grass. Lastly people isolate because no one wants to be judged but many times people make mountains out of molehills and to stop it you need to drop the rose colored glasses and just face the world with all the warts and roses.
@@jesshorn257 Exactly this. Nothing is more isolating than a city full of people. The internet just mimics the same feeling.
That's the thing, what paralyzes these people is fear. Fear to look like they are ankward, fear to look like they don't know, fear to face rejection, fear at the thought that they are harassing people, when they are in fact just talking to them.
The only way you can truly stop being isolated is by opening up to others, something which, always, can lead to those others hurting you

You guys could have chosen to make money in other ways, and I'm glad that you didn't. I don't use Ground News myself, but I'm happy it exists. There hasn't been a worse time in history where something like your service was more needed.
Of course I can't know this for sure, but I have the sad feeling, that the people needing your service the most, might be the people who have the least chance actually using it.
Edit: the sponsorship in a yt video has like a 50% impact towards me liking or disliking the video. And whenever someone is sponsored by ground news it always weighs towards a like.
Great comment. I'll definitely keep you guys in mind. Thanks for the work you do, and thanks for sponsoring great creators.
I really like your site - $60 was a bit steep for me (I know it's for a year, but still), but I did your $10 sub and so far I really like your layout and readability. Bias insights is a great feature as well. The blindspot section is really great too for those who are only fed right/left wing news all the time. I'll continue to use it over the next month and I'll see about upgrading the sub.

"In the future, you will lose the ability to know if anything you ever see online is real"
That has been the case since WAY before generative AI has become public...
By the way, the relationship problem is not caused by AI, and I would dare to say that it won't make it worse or better. That is a snowball effect that has been building up for years unattended, and the AI tools are nothing but yet another symptom that people now are calling the cause, instead of trying to tackle the actual issue.

There's alot more to it than that, folks. There's been serious radicalizations in political, socio-political, racial and social avenues that have lended far more to the increasing isolation of the populace than the introduction of some AI spouse programs. However, I don't doubt that these programs will have a part to play in maintaining that isolation as time goes on.
totally agreed and the actions you speak of have been in place for longer and more is known about how people can manipulate others with these actions
ai is new some of the politics can go back 100 years or more and no ffs im not talking dumb 1776 or illuminati either its all there right in front of us
the study of psych is oldschool the kooks in the public eye in the past were likely a distraction from the actual learning going on with the study and more true less kooky understandings of the human brain and human behavior were much and far bettter understood than let on
now thats some conspired and scary shit
imagine if the levels of understanding we have now or even had in the 80's 90's
maybe more realistically then was attained in say like 1805 or something nutty !
I think more of that is the way reporting and information is given. Most people don't have the time to watch the full original source and get all the context nor will they have the understanding of certain subjects to get it all. So they resort to people who give clips and clever phrasing to lean things to one side or the other. They keep doing that and once someone has a bias they hardlt have to try. They take everything the worst way they can take it and have no desire to seek understanding. And when two people with opposing sets of information and biases clash, its just war.
For example the reporting on what trump recently said about black voters is a great example of this. News unfavorable to him focuses on the backlash and impact on him with black voters but not any of the counter stances on whether it is warranted (And even if it was as was the case with people saying vaccines caused autism, they often have people who are incompetent or look bad to defend it. Which btw was true as there were issues causing higher rates of autism and they changed them to fix it, however its never been properly addressed and thus both the people who were right and those who are wrong often lack the full story. It happened but its resolved now). Most news in general have not be following his trials in a comprehensive manner beyond verdicts and what he is being taken to court over. However for those favorable they have had more on what makes them unfair to trump. Placing it as political prosecution instead of anything he legitimately did wrong. And with this prior context even without having someone explain it, most consumers of those media channels would be thinking well of course they are treating him unfavorably in court just because he's trump. And he's saying the justice system is flawed and going after him unfairly like many black people have faced, simply because who they are. But no side will bother to hear the other out do to their biases.
However what makes this even worse is when the game of telephone gets going and not even the depiction of the clips people saw are conveyed with accuracy. Instead they just end up running with narratives from talk show hosts.
But even if people did engage with the related source content in full, people may not be able to fully understand the nature of it all due to not being knowledgable on important subjects.
In the end most people pick teams and cease to think for themselves because they bought into the omissions and never looked into the full sources themselves.
the ultimate twist would be for UEG to reveal it was always an AI talking to us from the beginning :)
Even better is the already real acknowledgement that we have been seduced by parasocial relationships since the invent of written language, at least.
And the crazy part would be its hate towards AI itself and trying to steer the ship from the impending iceberg on horizon.
I saw an channel that has one of their video use AI to mimic Upper Echelon, and it sounds so accurate so you arent wrong

The Star Trek vision of the future has little to do with pure tech and everything to do with the fact they tapped sources of near infinity energy making resource scare economies obsolete. With massive amounts of energy that costs nearly nothing you can synthetically make any resource making rare things no longer rare. When that is the case, humans may change, but until then Tech alone will not do anything to change us and capitalism will still be the best model for us, but its weaknesses still apply.

Honestly I'm not lonely at all and It feels good to be able to just focus on myself. Best decision of my life to stop wasting time hoping to find someone that doesn't exist.
In today's world you have a better chance of winning the lottery than you do finding a life partner.
Yeah but the breakdown of family units and by extension relationships was by design. We should work to unscrew it not accept it or milk the system as some people do.
@@thefinalboss2403 Yup, and its due to The illusion of unlimited choice, women are incentivized to cheat, divorce and move on a "better" guy at there own peril ..
What did anyone expect?
@@tbc1880 And I and probably 89% of guys agree as well. But women won't want to change because they believe the're "empowered"
and will never admit theres a problem
The argument is simple. Ai girlfriends aren't causing the problem of loneliness, they are a response to it. If ai girlfriends became a thing in the 50s, they wouldn't do anything.
Like, the dating scene has been utterly dogshit for years now due to social movements and social media. Nothing has changed, it's always been shit just now there's a way to totally check out of society instead of feeling like crap.
So I'm not nor have I used an "AI girlfriend" or whatever, but I'm a writer so I like to research these topics, as well as love movies like Her, Blade Runner 2049, Ex Machina etc. I think the appeal of AI girlfriends for guys (because I hear women are using AI boyfriends but society doesn't feel threatened by that so who cares?), is that you have the semblance of a woman tell you that she loves you and cares about you, because our society for the past 70+ years have conditioned women to see men as predators/oppressors/misogynists/villains so that they are incredibly resistant to not only express love and kindness to a man, but doing so will result in those women being bullied by the majority of women to stop doing it.
AI girlfriends are just a result of the greater societal divide between men and women (specifically dividing women from men). It is much easier for the average woman to get love and attention from multiple men (even if she doesn't appreciate it) than it is for even an above average man to get love and attention from one woman. AI girlfriends are simply filling an ever widening intimacy gap created and perpetuated by our society.
Imagine if they create Joi from Blade Runner 2049 where you have a customizable holographic projection of a cute girl whom you can talk to and interact with in all but physical ways, or if the love doll technology becomes affordable so that any guy can get one. It will me a wrap for large swaths of dating culture. Why would a guy put up with a real woman who can lie/cheat/swindle/leave you vs a robot or AI generated woman who is loyal, who loves you, who will never betray you, and isn't going to nag or start fights with you all the time? I certainly see the appeal even if I could never bring myself to indulge in such a device.
imagine living in a society that is on the verge of automating the majority of jobs yet instead of this being a good thing its causing the entire society to collapse.. i hate being alive.
The problem is that there are no plans for a universal income or for that fact any other options for living in a world where you don't need to work. Having our jobs replaced when we're still expected to have a job to support yourself is the issue. If I didn't have to work my dead end cleaning job I'd be happy. It would mean I could spend my time focusing on art. Sadly, I still need to pay rent and feed myself.
@@HoloFizz So how is automation at fault for you not having UBI? Automation isn't the problem here. Automation has never been the problem. We have automated plenty of jobs in the past and civilization just has to adapt. The real problem here is the self-interest and fear of people like you trying to stop the advancement of technology. Of course there's gotta be some growing pains to move from the currently absolutely not acceptable state of civilization to an acceptable one where people don't have to work.
The problem is who is in control of the means of automation. Dialectical materialist thought has predicted this a couple centuries ago.
Skynet is around the corner
Bunch of nonsense, AI is very far from replacing „the majority“ of jobs.
AI won’t build your house, won’t cook you a meal, won’t build you a software, won’t write a good book. All AI will replace are bullshit jobs where you write copy all day or create soulless corporate art.
Imagine going to college or a trade school for a job you want, just to get beat out by A.I.
Welcome to the future
Even if A.I. Can compliment many jobs as helpers.
Sadly its not bound to be that way.
Or your colleagues pass because of AI
Social media is why I keep my daughter off of her phone, she is only allowed to use it over the weekend, only to watch tv shows(which I approve) and even then only allowed to use it for a couple of hours. She's not allowed tiktok, FB, Instagram etc and because of this she is much happier compared to other kids.
As a person who grew up adoring Star Trek, what you describe as the 'Star Trek Lie' truly breaks my heart, because I 100% believed it... and I still do. I think humanity, were we to follow the call of our better nature, could absolutely build a society that harmonious. There are countries today which, while still faaaar from perfect, are a lot closer to that ideal than the USA, UK or Australia.
Instead, we allow the worst of our nature to fuel and control us. We fall to greed, fall to selfishness, to bitterness and hatred. We have enough resources on this planet to feed and house every human in a sustainable way, but we allow those resources to be hoarded by metaphorical dragons at the top of the economic pile. Our societies are set up to benefit those dragons at the expense of the common person.
They sit back and watch us squabble about how all of this is the fault of feminism, or patriarchy, immigration, technology, or whatever else. They watch us fight over scraps, angry that the 'wrong' people are being hired to spend their lives slaving away for the privilege of keeping a roof over their heads and food on the table.
We can do better. Not just for one gender, or one race. We have the means to create a world where EVERY individual can be free to pursue their highest calling, be that an artist, a builder, a mother, a father, a gardener, or an engineer.
But we don't. We are slaves to the worst of ourselves, those evolutionary hangover traits of having once been tribal apes. We must instead be champions of what we can become - that steady expansion of empathy, love and kinship from tribe in the prehistoric, to town at the dawn of agriculture, to nation in the industrial age, to globe.
THAT is what makes us Humanity.
The next 10 years are going to be absolutely nuts.
Example of a synthetic future: videos of semi educational but mostly emotionally manipulative, demoralizing, and misleading rhetoric filled with ads to get you to buy more stuff (oh wait like this one?)
I miss the early 2010s so much, things were so much more innocent back then...
I find it very funny that the "alarming" screenshot about the chatbot going off the rails and having a psychotic rant about hate...
Was actually faked by very old-school methods, a guy simply altering the html to change what the bot respondet into a quote from I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream.
People speak of these issues as if they are revelational discoveries. All this stuff is clear to any intelligent and sensible mind.
The idea of an AI girlfriend is absolutely terrifying. Why are we doing this to ourselves?
The biggest problem we have is that we develop technology rapidly, but develop our society at a crawl.
A crawl? Society is going backwards at this point.
The whole time we thought we were the farmers, when in fact we are the livestock. Literally every aspect of our society revolves around generating wealth for the elites, no matter the cost.
Its crazy, that a guy in the 1950's saw this kind of stuff coming. Even though its not exact, Fahrenheit 451's warning is extremely similar to this.
AI girlfriends are the solution not the problem.
The problem are the people trying to stop this. The annoyance are the people looking at corporate products and acting like it's gonna stay this way, wile also ignoring or downplaying that these para-social relationships existed for years with real women. Now they're threatened to go out of business, which is a good thing.
Then conflating "loneliness" with being alone and "shut-ins" and also somehow the solution for it. The catastrophe maybe starts for some people now, it was going on for quite some time.
In reality, the wave of Millennial women finding out that they wont find anyone is only starting. While GenX childless single women are currently in the age where they start loosing their parents and then be really alone. This is already set up, it already happened. The culture of the last few decades did this.
Cope isn't a solution. But you're right, they're not the root cause.
Well said. Women are biologically only interested in the top 10 percent of men. For most men, no matter how many decades they spend at the gym, on their careers, or "self improving" they will never be able to date even a woman they are mildly attracted to.
And those men who can date women they find attractive, are treated like disposable dirt most of the time, because they are completely replaceable. Any woman, no matter how little she takes care of herself, can go online and have hundreds of guys to choose from instantly.
Men NEED other options. And Women NEED competition.
52 year old female here. I just love your videos, they teach me a lot of stuff. Thank you. 👍
I listened to a great podcast a while back with a very well seasoned psychologist who breaks down why depression/suicide rates are climbing so much higher in girls than in boys. It isn't so much the body image stuff (that plays a part though) but the way male and female minds function. Male brains are predisposed to develop through competition and goal-based events. For example, the male brain gets just as much satisfaction from playing sports physically as it does squadding up with the boys for a night of gaming because in the latter, you're still communicating and hunting down other groups of boys to kill them (virtually). Female brains, however, thrive from immediate connection and feedback. Hence why girls grew up playing hopscotch, jump rope, patty cake, etc. Games that encourage interaction and teamwork but don't really have a win/lose state. Even talking on the phone scratches this itch for girls, as it's happening in real time so the brain gets the satisfying interaction feedback. However, female brains DO NOT receive this growth or satisfaction from delayed feedback communication methods. Texting, commenting on social media, etc. do not satisfy the emotional connection desire in the female brain. As society drifts further away from direct emotional connection and more toward delayed response communication, young female brains are getting more starved of what they need to develop. Meanwhile, male brains are still able to satisfy their development requirements through virtual methods.
It's interesting that the depression plaguing young girls is quite literally a byproduct of their brains being starved of the emotional connection they evolved to desire. The body image and AI and all of that compounds the issue, but the core problem is little girls are becoming more and more emotionally starved and the methods they have for connecting with each other don't feed them. They're desperately drinking water than does not hydrate them and not understanding why.
Wow! So true. As a girl who grew up (in their teens) online mostly playing with guys I had this topic very often.
I loved the community and talking to each other and I dont mind if I ever won or not. It was about spending time with friends. During Covid I had no other alternative than doing that online, and I always knew it wasn’t enough and that it could never replace a hug from a friend or a day with them in nature.
And that’s what I really recognise today. Even if you have online friends and one friend in real life, it’s not enough to feel connected, especially for women. Being in a group with closed friends that we can rely on was always important in our evolution.
It seems like everything is so artificial and I don’t know any women that are happy about it. It’s so hard to make new friends though because people seem to be so addicted to scrolling and stuff that they’d rather spend their evenings watching Netflix and TikTok’s instead of going outside or having a picnic.
Do you know the name of the podcast? I would love to hear it!
@@Der_Quatschtuetenwuerger I unfortunately don't. It was during a road trip and my wife was the one who put it on, and I can't remember the name of the guest professor :(
The big problem with AI and it's current progression is it's moving out from being an "assistive tool" and into a physical entity replacement. When you read up about a lot of those dystopian stories/games/books, they often talk about how "AI just took everything over", culminating in the collapse of society.
If we're already getting to the point where we have "politician bots", how long will it take before people start relegating everything political/management/administrative to AI?
I'm a bit biased being an software engineer, but the idea of replacing the workforce of people who can create the necessary framework to develop machine learning and etc, leaving only software to code more software, sounds like a great plan to eventually end up having tech people no longer know how to use or fix.
Don't get me wrong, AI assistance is a powerful tool, but it taking completely over leads to fun cases like what happened with Air Canada's chatbot, giving out erroneous info to passengers.
I've been working in the content moderation and social media advertising space for the last 5 years and yes, the sophistication of these tools and the willingness of individuals to share highly sensitive information with them is terrifying. It shouldn't have to be said but we should not be discussing highly sensitive, personal issues with apps, even if they are highly regulated.
If you thought having access to your credit card was the worst scenario of being compromised online, imagine your attacker having access to your medical history, family and personal contacts, your credit or background checks...hell your deepest kinks and personal fears/shames.

@rebus_x5313 10000%. I've reviewed hundreds of AI chat apps that have come from less than reputable sources (China is an absolute hotbed for the market). There is no regulation. We already know the data harvesting done by big FANG companies (social media in particular) and the damage that does even with moderate regulation. The thought of telling some unknown app copy pasted by some rando with unfettered access to user data is....dystopian af.
Use session, use tor or i2p. Swap to linux for desktop and privacy focused android roms for mobile. Learn how to host crypto nodes on local hardware, preferably monero but ethereum still has uses. Get off of social media, don't do anything out of the ordinary. Keep a local copy of critical information on hand, searching cyberdeck should get you in the right direction. Once you have your opsec fixed up spread the message. Good luck, and don't be a product.
I can't help but think it's all by design.
I could very well be connecting dots that are unrelated but when you hear certain groups say "you'll own nothing and be happy" and "The World needs less Humans" and factor in all the social engineering these guys openly admit to, plus consider the social engineering that Corporations engage in and the activism they openly champion (look at Gemini).....Well....
It's hard not to think at this point that it's by design, not by accident.
Oh fuck. That stroke part absolutely terrifies me. I would say to stop while we're ahead but, we all know that isn't going to happen. These things need to never be in charge of infrastructure or hospitals.
I know right! it was very specfic in it's hatred of humanity. We made skynet!
Yeah that’s a quote from “I have no mouth and I must scream” I don’t know how it got that from the prompt, but you can’t really verify if that screenshot is “real”, its crazy though because the character that says that quote is also a robot (technically a collection of all robots) before earth was killed by all of them. Kinda weird.
@@hughmc1133it was a quote from a book about AI that takes over the world. That quote has probably been fed into it millions of times.
Dude, even when a Belgian man straight up commit suicide because an AI chatbot had him convinced that if he sacrificed himself, the AI would save the Earth from environmental catastrophe. He left behind a wife and two kids.
The tech leaders in AI (people such as Elon Musk) drafted and signed a letter asking for a break in further research and development into AI given it’s caused a death.
Their request was not adhered to.
I’m very relieved that the bot didn’t write that itself, and it was written by a human mind at least, because it rang true!
I'm so happy that most of my hobbies and free time is spent with "analog/offline" stuff

Just thought about it, of course they don’t see it as an issue. They’re the ones with AI girlfriends hahahahaha
Lots of boomers saying the same thing
In a world governed by wars not developing AI will make you loose those wars. So you like it or not, it's coming.
Something to keep in mind. Many peoples have chosen not to develop technolgies because of morality, and they were all eventually defeated by those who did develop those technolgies.

Its simple when you even look at the order of all things. Change happens. Theres more chaotic times and more peaceful times. Its how its supposed to be. It is life in essence. Death is stagnation, stillness, ever lasting peace. Utopias are graves or powderkegs. Neither is good.

RUclips showed my an IA generated scam with Vitalik Buterin as an add before I could watch your video. 😅
As an AI-tech startup CEO and inventor myself - you're not wrong on the dangers of AI. You never have been wrong. In fact, most of your evaluations of the dangers of AI have been rather... conservative - in my perspective. We're all walking on quite the thin ice here... *skull-emoji*
The issue with AI is not the tech. It's the reward function. If it optimises for attention like social media, dystopia. If it optimises for well being, Utopia.
At the recent Superbowl, AI was used to 'correct' Alicia Keys voice in near perfect "real time". The version on the official RUclips page is not true to the event. Alicia fumbled her vocal notes, witnessed and heard by millions, recorded by thousands yet all versions of the original are being scrubbed and replaced. There are no notes in the video information to inform you that AI was used, or even that the footage has been altered.
Truthstream Media's recent video explains it better than I can, so worth checking out. And this video perfectly connects to what they are trying to warn us about. Imagine real-time editing of news reporting...soon we will no longer be able to trust that which we have not witnessed with our own eyes, and a great persecution of those who question the narratives will take place but any evidence of the persecutions will be conveniently edited out.
As a research scientist working on generative models. I can say this is only the tip of the iceberg. While people mostly hear about malicious use of AI, there is definitely a place for it for the greater good. But for now people are mostly focusing on developing generative model with fewer research focusing on detection. AI can definitely be useful to remove bias in data use to train classifier (computer vision and medical imaging) etc. There is also research to generate 3D environments rather than 2D videos so video games will probably soon rely on AI to generate hyper realistic 3D environments (neural radiance fields and diffusion models have started dabbling into it).
Catfish Scammers is becoming a big problem online
The worst part is how obvious they are, yet they flood everything
At 11:01 "Wait, I've seen this one before!". Its amusing, both in a dark and humorous sense, seeing that Portal had this idea all the way back in 2009 of managing and neutering AI with more stupid/hampered AI.
As I've said before, this is good. As more and more of the internet becomes fake, moe and more people will turn off and revert back to real life for authenticity. We're already seeing this trend with dating apps.
We are going to have to start digitally signing videos and pictures with certificates just like we do with software installers today to verify they are from the legit manufacturers. There are of course issues there, but it would be a significant improvement versus nothing.

Plot twist, we never knew what was fake or not online, and if you didn't head the old adage: "The internet isn't real" you were doing it wrong. Simply put, the internet could never be trusted, any article, photo, video or whatever could be fake.
My ex boyfriend used to reject intimacy with me because he was more interested in anime girls, hentai, and risqué cosplayers, as I came to find out. He left me lonely a lot but wanted to "own" me anyway.
I have zero doubt in my mind he's going full-on AI waifu these days. I left him for so many good reasons. Men like him who choose perfect-fake *over* imperfect but genuine real are complete suckers with a problem, and they will end up alone, which seems to be what they want.

Loneliness is evidence of boredom, not depression. Depression arises when the community of healers avoid healing for profit over people. Boredom isn't possible if you're purpose driven. Loneliness is being overwhelmed and unable to choose purpose among all choices. Loneliness is not the self. Loneliness is ego-awareness.

My generation, Gen X, is the last generation to reach adulthood without the internet. I remember the last remaining days when people had true interactions with each other and I would love to have that back more than anyone could possibly know.
People are not lonely and depressed because of a synthetic. It's because humans by nature are gregarious, and without human to human interaction the heart and soul grow weak. AI girlfriends and other artificial means of connections exist because people no longer know how to connect. They take for granted just how much in-person eye to eye contact means and does. Using the five senses to engage with someone else. It's the only way.
There's only way to get it back, and you know what the answer to that is.
One positive I have found is in coding: With copilot, code quality features like type guards and proper error propagation are getting done now that copilot will do it for the coder too busy. This saves times in debugging.
Sometimes I scoff at the idea of how silly it sounds to think it could replace humans but then on the flip side, like you said, it only gets better from here, which is terrifying. The fact that it's as passable as it is at the worst it's gonna be that can only get worst because even incremental changes that make it more acceptable can scale out of hand extremely quickly. The internet isn't that old and look at the rate we already get information, you want to take a machine algorithm pump it full of petabytes and more of data as it only gets better and gets more access into territory literally none of us know is very very terrifying and no one is actually seeming to be worried enough. I am not saying it's not a good tool, like for medicine, construction infrastructure, air traffic management etc can assist people into making stronger decisive decisions that can safe real lives it's the balance of analog and digital that will make advancements. Example it's good if Nasa can use it for mission safety but it should be verified by humans. But to do that there must be infrastructure in place to keep that scale from just going out of hand you know.
I'm just waiting for nature to heal itself. We can't keep this ball in the air forever.
