Conclusion
Science fiction writers have been wringing their hands over artificial intelligence for decades, even before public figures ever discussed the concept. They imagined AI as a booster force that we will have to use to venture outside the solar system or just as an assistant that will help us fix things here on Earth, but an inescapable influence nonetheless. All the media that related the concept of AI to the general public slated it to be mysterious and analytical, doing whatever it takes to fulfill its own agenda before inevitably turning out to be the villain. As we have seen throughout this book, there is barely any evidence that will happen in this century.
What is happening is that entrepreneurs are pushing themselves harder than ever before to run their business ventures sleepless, fueled by stimulants, and frustrated by the lack of influence on politicians. So, when entrepreneurs do finally get some sleep, they have feverish dreams of an AI, a digital worker that could let them finally usurp the throne of political power and then take a nap. AI could even be presented as a deity to fill that missing hole in the lives of entire nations while giving it special legal privileges and immunities. Can tech giants actually do it? Highly doubtful.
The emergence of general AI, one as smart as a human being, is likely to require a technological invention as fundamental as electricity to function but one that humans won’t be able to use because we will simply take the invention and again overperform compared to any machine. We do have a narrow AI, one that can compare images or find an object in a picture or recognize a certain face among a group of faces, but even that is worthless without a human handler overseeing it. Self-driving cars and trucks simply don’t work without a human guardian and technician, meaning they are certain to increase employment rather than make people jobless.
As laid out throughout this book, general AI is merely a pipe dream, wishful thinking by tech giant CEOs who think their pet projects can be widely accepted and them hailed as saviors of humanity when they dole out UBI. None of the doom and gloom predictions they laid out are going to happen, but stoking fear does increase consumption and makes humans more malleable. So, now what? Just enjoy the ride.
