30 years old, engineer here. I am starting to get really scared. I don't mean that for my job security.
We are just starting to observe societal effects of social media. We haven't reached the era where we, as an entire species, recognise and regulate it impacts legally & properly.
I am starting to feel like we are losing it against the machine as a species. I don't fear being replaced, but I feel the culture getting mangled in a way we won't be able to recover some things, because it will be too late.
It is not a ring-wing, left-wing political thing. But some sort of innovator's dilemma. We are like cornering ourselves into an innovator's dilemma as a species.
Yes and: I’d argue that whoever has been distorting social media to further their own goals (for example the Cambridge Analyticas) has already mangled culture enough that the transition to AI might be imperceptible.
