You'll invest in this thing & you don't have a goddamn choice about it. But your needs? Unimportant.

AI is Being Deployed as "Degenerate Intellectual Communism" - Bret Weinstein"So on the one hand, you've got the AIs hoovering up all of this product of human intellectual activity, and then regurgitating it. But not really just regurgitating it—actually using it as the material of useful coherent thought, producing what appears to be thoughtful insight that is really the result of having scooped up all of these insights and then making the emergent property of it as the product.So here's the point.From each according to his ability, to each according to his need, okay?They've taken from each of us according to our ability, right? People who say things that aren't very useful aren't going to get integrated into these models at a high level, and people who say things that are particularly insightful are going to have their stuff utilized because it's gonna result in a better product, which results in this thing being saleable.To each according to his need... nope.You're gonna have to pay for your level of access to this thing. We've all put our heart and soul into it, whether we intended to or not, but you are gonna have to pay a private entity in order to access the product. So my point is it has the worst element of communism: from each according to his ability. Those who are highly productive will have all of their product loaded into this thing, and those who are lazy will have nothing useful loaded into it, and so it will steal from people in proportion to their contribution. And then we are gonna be charged for our level of access.To each according to his need? No. You may need top-level AI. You may have done high-quality work that got ingested into the AI and is therefore serving other people. And you may need top-level access that you can't afford to buy. Sorry.So this is why I say it's "degenerate intellectual communism." It has the essential element of communism: from each according to his ability. You will invest in this thing and you don't have a goddamn choice about it. But your needs? Unimportant."...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29DucHIF_3E
