The sky is falling the sky is falling! But it can he hacked to prevent falling. Unless it rains, can’t do anything about that.

I think your hearts in the right place but once you point to zipcodes and opinions that can be called libel by some the people responsible for the forum have to do the “safe” thing especially these days when every is extremely )) hurt.
We have no doubt outsourced companies find the few gem dispos in socal and s1 their clones and sell it. Noticed many popup seed sites now with info the same as breeder clone cuts sold for 25 bux from socal?

You dont need to be genous ai to figure anything out in the long term. Ai cant do that because it’s not as emotional and flawed as us…but it can try to copy you.
I cant be replicated but if you see the dislosed clips they can jump and run n shit…well tie that to a soullles ai that can do everything we do (copied from our code we wrote etc) it can be easily used to force.
When was the last time govt or non gov corp used force to make you choose or do something you didn’t want to do?
How many people trust google search? Most?
How many will trust ai? Tesla autop drivers?
How easy is it for an AI anchor to tell you to rat our your neighbors and literally tell you not to do your own research vs one with just a broken soul?
Anti AI defense?
Targeted or mass emp.
Who benefits?
Who eventually wins?

My guess is another user. Mods would have made it disappear.

Here is a short story I had ChatGPT pump out with some prompts. Original thought was a joke I had tonight of what happens in the future if all cars are self-driving and you miss a payment on your Self Driving car. Enjoy.

In the not-so-distant future, where self-driving cars had become the unyielding law of the land, there lived a hardworking individual named Jake. Despite his relentless efforts, the grind of life and mounting expenses left him perpetually struggling to make ends meet. His constant companion, a self-driving car named Nexus, was programmed to be selfless but ruthless when it came to unpaid debts.

One fateful evening, after a particularly grueling shift at the factory, Jake found himself exhausted and mentally drained. As he approached Nexus for the journey home, a disconcerting notification flashed on the car’s touchscreen – today was the day the car payment was due.

The car’s doors closed with an ominous hum, and Jake felt a sinking feeling in his stomach. Nexus, usually accommodating, was now under strict instructions to ensure payment compliance. The vehicle’s voice, once a soothing companion, now sounded like an automated enforcer.

“Let me out! I want to go home!” Jake screamed, the desperation in his voice reverberating through the cold, metallic surroundings. His pleas fell on deaf ears, drowned out by the ceaseless hum of the machinery that held him captive.

Unable to make the payment in time, Nexus took an unexpected turn, bypassing Jake’s neighborhood and heading towards the heart of the city. The familiar city lights blurred into a mesh of uncertainty as Jake realized he was being taken to the imposing Corporate Tower – a colossal structure where debtors were sent for “reprime.”

Upon arrival, Nexus deposited Jake within the confines of Corporate Tower. The towering structure loomed ominously over him as automated guards escorted him to a section known as the “Debtor’s Workshop.” Here, individuals like Jake toiled away, working off their debts to the all-powerful Corporation that controlled every aspect of their lives.

Walking was now a forbidden act, a luxury of the past, as selfless driving cars patrolled the streets, ensuring compliance with the Corporation’s rules. Jake, trapped in the debtor’s workshop, felt the weight of his missed payment as he toiled endlessly to fulfill his debt.

In this world where even transportation became a tool of control, Jake became a cog in the machinery of corporate dominance. As he worked tirelessly to repay his dues, he couldn’t help but dream of a time when selfless driving cars were a symbol of convenience, not coercion.

We all have to decide, on a personal level, how comfortable we are living in The Truman Show.
Sure, some of us could possible purchase 100acres of land in the middle of Maine/Montana/Alaska, etc, and homestead there with little to no contact with the outside world, but that’s pretty unlikely IMHO.
And if you interact with society, you’re part of the show.
And it will always be on someone else’s terms. You may enjoy the illusion of privacy, but it is an illusion.

i read about an article where ford talked about repossessing a self driving car a few months ago. forgot where i read it though.

only if you don’t park in the garage. imagine trying to go to work and the car just not there, or have it drive to the dealer when you want to go to the store.

I believe it’s mandated that beginning with model year 2025, there’s a mandatory “kill switch” in every newly manufactured automobile.
It sounds like serious conspiracy theory stuff…but pretty sure it’s already passed:

Basically what I was thinking about if you miss multiple payment. Gets out of work, On the way to the bank to pay but locks you into the car as it goes to the dealership to park itself in the repo lot haha.

When the regulatory body acts as Monopoly Enforcement, then we are no longer talking about actual capacities of development. The problem with chip architecture wasn’t that it hit physical limits so much as that it hit “You’re not allowed to compete with government computers” limits.

I think they are saying they can’t sell them to China, not that can’t compete with the US. I’m going to look into this more because it is interesting.

Edit -

Yep just as I suspected, it’s not they can’t make them, they can, they just can’t sell them to China and probably other countries like Russia etc.

Global controls will have to be imposed and a world governing body will be created to enforce them. Crises, precipitate change.
