I'm going through Battlestar Galactica for the third time. I thought it was a good time to do so because one of the major themes of the show was that the robots that the Capricans created went to war with the humans and almost but not quite wiped them out. Almost every episode was about the conflict between humans and AIs. It's a fantastic show, the acting and the writing as far beyond most TV series. I'll let you know if I figure anything out from watching the series again.
@davew Have you read After World by Debbie Urbanski? Not a war theme, but a love theme. Similar with AI and humans inter-relating. I interviewed Debbie for my video podcast Imaginize.World. You might find her work and thoughts relevant be it quite different from Battlestar Galactica. https://imaginize.world/debbie-urbanski-podcast/ #robots#AI#human
@marcel@miriamkl so then #AI is digitised exploitation in order to turn away from responsibility as a #human being and yet #profit and be praised as progressive because of the #technology? let's think about whether there was something like this besides #cryptocurrencies and older similar behaviour? 🤔 </rhetoric-question>
Professor Geoffrey Hinton, the “godfather of AI,” is “very worried about AI taking lots of mundane jobs.” That’s why he has advised U.K. government officials that universal basic income would be a very good idea. BBC News talks to Hinton about who would benefit most from AI, who would suffer from it, and the emerging human-extinction threats facing humans. https://flip.it/QBBzZB #Tech#Technology#Human#Extinction#AI
