I feel like I’m a really good judge of character; I can tell if I’m not going to get along with someone or how they will treat me in the future. When it comes to high profile celebrity figures, i can get a sense of their character through very minimal data. This is why I predict Andrew Tate (toxic manosphere influencer) will pivot into becoming an alien conspiracy influence. But I have no evidence for it, thus the prediction is baseless.
Anyone have any similar beliefs/predictions?
I think there will be some crazy scientific breakthrough that will change everything.
Totally baseless, and it’s mostly the idiot optimist inside me that believes it, but I kind of have to believe it else I’ll go bananaser then I already am.
AI has honestly changed a lot about my life/intended life plan. Especially when it was released, it basically rolled out as i graduated high school.
I actually started out in a creative/arts based degree but quit it early on, so i think to a lot of people it looked like i was scared of AI stealing my job. I wasn’t back then, but i now kind of am concerned that scummy employers will lay-off a lot of people and try to have AI do their work in that field.
Anyway not to say AI fits your description, as it doesn’t really, but it indicates to me that sense of tumultuous change. Likewise, covid. That changed everything too. I don’t think these things come in pairs but in waves, kike the chsnge of the 19th and 20th centuries.
To me, AI is most impactful in ways it was originally created for: combing through large data sets to make connections, even if that data set is a picture, or fifty of them. E.g., an ai was used to look at pictures taken with a microscope and it was able to pick out different structures/organisms without staining. Similar systems were also used to find discrete hints of far off galaxies than astronomers would struggle to detect without making their data quite noisy.
The big companies had nothing to do with these afaik, especially since the researchers that wrote the papers used machine learning in there methodology instead of the colloquial “AI”, which I will always see as a misnomer until such time an AI is generally accepted to be someone, which I don’t believe will happen anytime soon with our level of technology and failing biosphere.
And I think it will come from AI. It’s either that or aliens, and only one of those two actually exist.
Eh, maybe AI adjacent, and certainly not from the big ai companies.
