Open post samjeans @samjeans@c.im · 2mo ago Replying to @oregon_slim@c.im The conundrum of the century: Which is worse: X) An authoritarian world in which people are forced to act like machines Y) A permissive world in which machines are allowed to act like they are people ??? @oregon_slim@c.im How could X not be worse(?)
Open post samjeans @samjeans@c.im · 2mo ago Replying to @oregon_slim@c.im @samjeans@c.im If you never knew and had no way to find out if you were talking to a machine and or to a person, Y might be worse. Get a listed landline phone in the US for a while and answer it when it rings, you will understand. @oregon_slim@c.im I’ll still take my chances… 😅
Open post samjeans @samjeans@c.im · 2mo ago Replying to @oregon_slim@c.im @samjeans@c.im How about if machines are allowed to attain power over people and communicate in secret and conspire against us? That's just stuff that people do? @oregon_slim@c.im I’ll take almost anything over your scenario X
