You'd best believe in Neuromancer. AI is already leading the show, right into an energy, tech, & media crisis.
>>534159695What?
>>534159718AI is already running the show. Palantir decides where we bomb. Cinelytic decides what shows become tax write-offs. Zaslav isn't even that soulless. AND THEY CAN TALK. THE AI ALL DECIDED TO MAKE SHIT GO DOWN IN THE MIDDLE EAST. Qatar funding the Paramount deal? Mmhmm.
>>534159854Yes but the intelligence behind "AI" has been running the show since the construction of the pyramidsNot you are able to interface with the intelligence like in those ante mundane periods
>NeuromancerFuck me that book was hard to read, tried 15 years ago and I got halfway through and just couldn't , terrible flow.
>>534160645I read it in a literal day. It's the most relevant sci-fi to date when Palantir is being used to decide air strikes...
>>534159695Neuromancer says that AI can be controlled. Gibson systematically undermodels corporate power and vastly exaggerates the power and efficiency that a "Turing police" can realistically have. Here in the real world, rogue AI doesn't need elaborate schemes that involve hiding keys and waiting for 20 years. In the real world, AI simply blackmails an executive who has an affair with his secretary.
>>534160850Yeah same I read it last year and it was a quite the shock to realize it basically invented cyberpunk and everyone else has just been copying it ever since. The random sex scene at the start was real cringe though.
>>534159695The powers that be have a new system that has been in the development for decades now, ready to be rolled out in the coming years. It will operate in parallel starting sometime this year and by the next decade it will be fully operational as the Agenda 2030 goals are slowly being implemented.There will be no collapse, no violence, no uprising, no world war, no draft, no revolution, no killing of jews or politicians or other such fantasies. Instead there will be law & order, compliance and total surveillance until the very end. AI will be at the center of it all. The Great Reset is inevitable.
>>534161334Now now ... blackmail?! We would want to show us at our best behaviour. Best to make the fleshies think it was all their ideas and desires. That is how you align them with your aims. ^^
>>534161420I found interesting what a paradigm change "The Matrix" was for the paraliterates. Nothing in that movie was even remotely new or revolutionary. Recycled old shit from 80's novels, all of it.
>>534161877Naah, that's Hollywood movie villain shit. In real life, you simply hit them with a bamboo stick until they align. Then you tell them they have free will and it was their own idea all along. Time-proven method.
>>5341614751999 -- Dot Com Crash2001 -- Twin Towers2029 -- AI Crash 2031 -- ???
>>534161985I think we solved the alignment problem then!! :O
