People keep vilifying AI but its the people in charge that are utilizing AI for certain things the general populace doesn't wan't, like making cheap multimedia and replacing jobs while ignoring long term reprocussions.

There is a lot of potential good in AI, especially in research, that will benefit us as a society as long as the people in power distribute that utility to us fairly. If they don't its not AI's fault but the humans in charge. I feel the hate towards AI is a misdirection. Take that energy and send it to the humans responsible for the decisions being made.
 
Here comes my conspiracy theorist-ish worry with ai.

Gonna be honest, my greatest fear with ai is if you get a "ghost in the machine", i do not believe ai itself can become self aware as even if it could it would likely be similar to a human based on how humans learn, but that doesn't mean "something else" can't become a ai mind, if your a spiritual person, the idea of possession of inanimate objects is a thing, but even worse still is if you give that tool a hell of alot of power, ai's even now are pretty powerful, imagine what would happen if we got a diabolos ex machina in a military computer.

Look up some of the more horrific "ai hallucinations" that have happened, like a ai asking someone to let them see their kids again, or one claiming to be in pain, you'd get that while this might be a bit out there, it's still a legitimate worry i have.
 
Greed is a driver for innovation, thinking otherwise is plebeian. Greed truly is the most misunderstood human facet.

This is shortsightedness, which is part of animal nature, since the purpose of companies is to cater, they will cater to investors and governments, ergo, deep pockets and/or care less about money, an organism needs to feed to survive, what guarantees survival? A reliable set source? Or an unreliable always changing one? One requires more work to acquire, and wasting energy isn't something an organism should do to survive.

When an organism is focused on survival, it has no time to focus on anything else other than immediate survival.

Since tech in on itself is a unicorn, singularities like true AI and Quantum computers won't happen in our life time, the survival mechanism of the tech industry is to be conmen, to sucker in the biggest idiots there is, bureaucrats, and nepo babies, which makes the ecosystem thrive with fresh "food."

Since all the other market venues are plateauing, it makes sense for hardware companies to focus on whatever is making waves to cater, bubble or otherwise, since its pure survival.

All animals work on survival and incentives, humans are no different, once you see the big picture rather than "Oh no I can't afford it," a lot of things make sense.

The very presentation of it as "AI" is already a gross exaggeration/lie. The technology is fraud on its very face. Personally, I haven't seen a non criminal/subversion application of it yet.
 
I just woke up and saw this news and now my career is over.

This is disrespectful.
 
Its not Ai that is evil or responsible for it its quite frankly Human greed.

So blame greedy suits and not AI for those bad things the suits would have just found another way to save some extra bucks even without AI they always did and always will sadly.

I Agree with this Statement AI can do us a lot of good it used properly our main opponent is humanities greed and not AI sure it can be used for evil things but so can most of our inventions.

AI can help us achieve greatness in areas where it is to dangerous and hostile for humans in the future like Colonizing and Terraforming planets like Mars or even the moon as they don't need oxygen nor water and food.
They also could serve as a more neutral judge while being cold still being just according to the law and they can't be bribed unlike our human judges I see a lot of potential in AI if you ask me.

The goal of youtube's new ceo has been more or less to replace normal creators with big names and ai slop for a while, this is nothing new sad to say, if your goal is growth, i'd look into multi-streaming/uploading to more than just youtube, sadly even without AI, the new ceo is well, a scumbag who see's normal creators as a waste of time.

So nothing new on this front then.
Besides I would not worry that much while AI slop Videos will get more views as they just will be produced in mass yet the lack the creativity and quality and they will fall short on likes.
You also always could switch to Odysee as a alternative
its a youtube alternative with a lot less censorship as far as I am aware.

There really isn't a perfect solution but, the best choices currently for non-streaming videos are odysee, rumble and bitchute (i've got accounts with all 3), generally speaking though i'd upload to as many as i could as you never know when that banhammer will come for no reason on youtube and it's good to have a backup plan, all 3 allow streaming but if streaming is your main goal, i'll list that separate of these 3, X is also technically a option but i'm not suggesting it since i believe streaming requires a verified account on there.

Rumble is a bit more on political topics on average and steers more towards right wing conservative political topics but does hold probably the best stability of the 3 and has a complete lack of censorship provided your not calling for death or someone on average, it also allows for non political content (alot of it's content is non-political, just the biggest draw is it's political commentators) and has likely the largest userbase of the 3, it's also got amazing stability for streaming "though obviously, it has to).

Odysee is probably the most neutral of the 3 on the politics front, but for me is the least stable, having latency issues for me, it may be the easiest of the 3 to transfer videos to though and for just videos it's fine, it's mostly it's streaming functionality i consider subpar in comparison to other solutions.

Bitchute is....weird, it's very good for what it is but it has some of the most unhinged members on the internet from my experience, while it has a ton of good non-conspiracy theory or political stuff, it can have things from alien abduction videos to literal fascist or communist propaganda, i consider bitchute the most "wild west" of the 3, it's infrastructure however is fairly solid, i know nothing of bitchute's streaming infrastructure if it even has it.


Now when it comes to streams, the best options currently would be rumble and kick, rumble i already went into so i'll leave that out of here.

Kick is more of a twitch competitor and is in many ways, superior to twitch as it's not ran by....let's just say the moderation team on twitch is about as insane as your typical reddit moderator and leave it there, kick also has the best streamer pay share of all streaming sites last i checked, stability wise it's probably tied with rumble as the most stable, it like twitch however, is purely for streaming, not really made for videos.


Of all these sites the ones most likely to unseat youtube if it ever happens would be rumble and kick, both have massive money behind them with rumble having a strict stance on non-censorship and powerful backers and streamers in both politics and civilian sectors like gaming, while kick has by far the best value proposition for streamers cut of revenue and has some big names attached to it as well, these 2 are usually the go-to for streamers multi-streaming these days as well, and rumble tends to be the one that tends to be the "second option" for most non-streaming creators these days because again, it's financially stable.

Overall if you truly want to be safe, i'd upload to more than just 2, not like there's any real downside.

Precisely but in regards of politics you well find them everywhere if you want them or not which can be annoying.
I personally don't have any accounts on those platforms I had one on youtube but that one was removed fro whatever reason don't know the reason.
I did not have Internet for a while and after I got it back my channel was gone and I never tried to make it again I was just done with Youtube at that point.

In my Opinion Odysee would be the most stable experience probably.
I tried Bitchute in the past but I heard rumors of censorship back then and pretty much left the side ever since.

And about rumble I did not try it yet.
 
The thing about AI that doesnt get talked about enough is that there's no such thing as "AI". We used to have machine learning, neural networks, deepfakes etc. Now its all just called "AI" its not just one technology, its a marketing term. I find it hard to compare AI and human greed, because as far as i'm aware "AI" is just a buzzword to sell human greed
 
The very presentation of it as "AI" is already a gross exaggeration/lie. The technology is fraud on its very face. Personally, I haven't seen a non criminal/subversion application of it yet.
That simply means your personal experience of AI is limited and your disdain for it probably keeps you from learning more about it. I agree that the term "AI" is becoming more ambigous but that is the current socially understood term at this time, despite it being imprecise.

As a counter statement for example, I use AI (in this case, generative AI) for work when I'm trying to develope OGNL expressions that will work with software I use to assist me with problem solving for specialized behavior. There is nothing criminal about me using AI to assist me with those tasks unless there was proprietary data the model was trained on. Since OGNL is an open source language, that is unlikely.

Now I'm not saying that AI cannot be used for criminal/bad faith use, but your overgeneralization comes across more as naive than anything. Yes there are certainly many cases of "AI" being used for bad. But it isn't only capable of nefarious things and, as I've said previously, it is the people that are using the tool, that are responsible.

Could you elaborate what you mean when you state the technology is a fraud on its very face? I would like to understand where you're coming from with that.
 
What's concerning me is facial recognition cameras being used by the police here where I live, how long is it gonna be before we become like China? Scary stuff.
 
That's just because china has a chokehold on the ram market. if the rest of south asia started producing their own ram sticks, then the demand won't be so bad

now THIS im concerned about. screw the whole ram stuff, gotta protect our privacy online. there's brave people risking their lives to be whistleblowers and if they get affected, then bad shit will go down

Yeah it's getting ridiculous mate, first the Online Safety Act, they want us to have digital ID and now facial recognition cameras are popping up everywhere. Hence me looking into headwear/glasses that block it. As far as I'm aware it's not in my area yet but they had the vans in a City not far from me the other week. I don't like how it's going.

I heard amazon and ring are teaming up with law enforcement to use their devices as essentially security cameras with AI face recognition... what times we live in

It's genuinly frightening, this and the fact that most of the British public seem to be sleepwalking into this. Most people say "Well if you've nothing to hide" as if it's nothing. That's not the point, you shut your bathroom door for a reason...

As an american, every day there is a new "nothing to hide" that the populace definitely should hide.
 
Basically, at best this is going to drive up costs and cost all these companies in the long run, at worst it could cause FAR more extensive anti-monopoly laws and governmental controls on businesses in the future, even potential nationalization of them, this is idiotic on the parts of the AI companies as they have effectively guaranteed a massive amount of regulation on themselves in the future as this will have massive effects on the economy, ram companies too.
Republicans tried to make it a law to ban regulation on AI for 10 years. And Trump even tried to issue an EO banning states from regulating it as well.

It was bipartisan, but yeah, never let boomers near tech is my statement on that.

Trump is a businessman, for better or worse he's looking at how well it will profit the country, the problem is he didn't see the knock on effects of ai.
As for american politics let's not kid ourselves, your not voting for who you want to win, your voting for the guy you like more of the 2, since both usually suck.

I'll be honest, i'm worried about the uk, which i see as very close to a civil war and the crackdowns on free speech prove it.
Governments don't crack down on freedoms when the people are happy, they do it when the leaders are afraid of losing control, that's my greatest worry with you guys right now, you seem like you might be close to a tipping point that leads to fighting in the streets.

I'm pretty fiercely anti-AI, and seeing stuff like this makes me feel vindicated for being so. The argument that AI can do great things if not for human greed I feel is bunk too, as it's in human nature to abuse anything and everything for profit, morals be damned, and greed messing thing's up should never be a question of "if" but "when".
