Been watching this long but so far informative presentation by Tristan Harris & Aza Raskin called ‘The AI Dilemma’ while eating my breakfast.
Interesting albeit quite startling stuff 🤓

We have some of the smartest engineers in the country getting paid millions of dollars to turn supercomputers into slot machines and dopamine delivery systems for teenage girls.

"It's 1944 & you get a call from Robert Oppenheimer..."

Highly recommend this #TristanHarris & #AzaRaskin clip unpack'g AI's history, current inflection pt & risks to a functional society…long bt just get to the 15min mark.

Social Media, as the 1st AI phase, has been a race to the bottom of the brain stem. The next iteration, Gllmm AI’s, are race to intimacy…bots that are your best friend…tell you what you want to hear...can persuade you to do whatever.

While we were all looking forward to technology that bypasses human strengths, we missed a key earlier point where technology overwhelms human weaknesses. That point was already about a decade ago.

The Social Dilemma, Cambridge Analytica, Surveillance Capitalism is nothing compared to the risks being unleased on society by AI

"With few exceptions, tech company leaders claim their platforms are simply a neutral mirror of society and hold users responsible for generating polarizing content. Despite what the companies say, the digital tools they’ve created are not neutral mirrors. Their affordances and algorithms incentivize polarization by amplifying divisive content – making their platforms more like fun house mirrors where you don’t know if what you’re seeing is real or an illusion." (#tristanharris)

Tristan Harris has explored the influences that hijack human attitudes, behaviors, and beliefs, from his childhood as a magician to his coursework in Stanford’s Persuasive Technology Lab to his leadership as a Design Ethicist at Google. Today, he studies how major technology platforms wield dangerous power over our ability to make sense of the world and leads the call for systemic change.

I wanted to share a few thoughts on a recent story on #China's #TikTok, specifically a well-known speaker, #TristanHarris who claimed the company was shipping "opium" to American users and teens.

I'm not a big fan of TikTok myself, but I do take issue with what appears to be intentional misinformation about China and #Chinese companies. See my thoughts below and let me know what you think.

“A fundamental problem of humanity is that we have paleolithc emotions, medieval institutions, and god-like technology."

Tristan Harris of Center for Humane Technology has said this repeated multiple times.

Each time I come across it, it gives me goosebumps.
