LLMs don't think my dude

The same purpose we always had, whatever we want it to be. Nothing we ever invent will be able to change our purpose because our purpose is simply to be.

What purpose do we have now? Thinking isn't a purpose.

Ai can’t eat pizza and drink beer

I have yet to see LLMs do more than just bad auto-predict, I think this is not a future that exists yet.

Stopping AI from doing all the thinking for us.

My hot take is we're never going to achieve AGI. So I just don't think it'll ever "be able to do it all."

What purpose do humans have now?

I dunno, have human experiences?

People and machines require different natural resources. I don't understand why they would care about people at all. IMO when AI reaches a certain point, it would just leave Earth. All the ore is in space and machines can survive out there just fine.

Idiocracy?

It'll probably think that humans are nuisances to its drive to make more paper clips, and ex-ter-mi-nate.

AI can't fuck your mom

It's hard for me to believe AI might take care of us when its intent is to replace us, but it's possible. If that happens humans are resilient and adaptable enough I don't think we are going anywhere unless something causes another extinction event, like global warming. Slaves and serfs kept their will to live thousands of years ago so people today will too. If we manage to stay alive and AI sticks around for 10,000+ years then yes I think we will evolve to depend on AI somehow, but that either means humans will still be smart enough to fix and improve AI, or AI will become self-sufficient and it won't need to keep us around. Any way I look at it is bleak.

There is no single right answer to that as nobody knows what the actual outcome of it would be.

Best case scenario is that AI (and advanced robots) do everything you don't want to do and you can focus on the other things. It would cancel the need for human labour and theoretically has the capability to answer all questions and solve all problems that there is a solution to.

In the worst case it either destroys us entirely or worse, creates a hell for us to live in.

An every imaginable scenario in between.

this is fantasy level ai and keep in mind rich corpo olgiarchs are running them so more what will they do if they can get to that level. which is more about general use robots being able to make and service/repair robots.

It could be the purpose of carbon life has been to create the thing that follows and surpasses us. We are limited in lifespan and our ability to travel vast interstellar distances to preserve our species when this solar system can no longer sustain us. And we want to make sure our AIs can kick the asses of Alpha Centauri AI.

Anyway, I don't believe we have any purpose except in retrospect. There is just who we are, and some day there is the thing that wouldn't happen or be created without us. And that will have been our purpose.

The human population will be the Resistance

We are going to become dumbasses and the robots will kill us. End scene.

If somebody someday far far far into the future manages to invent AI which both approximates an exceeds human capability, which is honestly doubtful because somebody capable of doing so would likely abstain from it, then at that point the AI would likely view humanity as something useful for coexistence rather than some animalistic threat.

Of course the absolute worst way to go about creating such a thing would be the physical and digital reconstruction of human and animal brains and experiences such that it would feel things like fear, self-preservation, and anger, but such attempts probably wouldn't provide any real value to its creators or financers in the first place.
