I already use an AI Based motherboard to watch your videos, I know this because I'm not a sheep. So AI is what we program to do our dirty work, including publish Youtube Videos, the odds of it going rogue and fucking us up is Hollywood horror shit dude.

I think you are mixing AI with anything related to IT, electronics or software.

The point is AI developments would allow the creation of lethal autonomous weapons (killer robots basically). It sounds crazy, but have a look at the following :

Google is quietly providing AI technology for drone strike targeting project
Thousands of leading AI researchers sign pledge against killer robots. If these concerns from the community are not addressed and translated into legislation, you can be assured that the military will find less scrupulous engineers and go ahead. There is growing pressure to legislate in particular at the UN Convention on Conventional Weapons, like the Campaign to Stop Killer Robots

I'm well aware of weapons of war being autonomous, as well as the google employee strike in retaliation. Due to the Artificial narrow intelligence in the Software of our hardware we optimize out computing experience. AI is also being used for art, gaming, architecture, automotive advancements and science.

Ok I thought that you were minimising the worrisome applications of AI in the military. Yes AI has a lot of great and positive outcomes in other domains.
In general technology itself is amoral, however the society needs to put legal bounds to its usage. These limits ideally would emerge from a public democratic debate, which is rarely the case due to moneyed interests

@leecamp, would you consider uploading your videos directly to DTube ?

Some of your audience might want to stay away from Google, and switching progressively to DTube would increase the Steemit/DTube community discussing news and politics. It could be done in parallel on both platforms at the beginning.

(other reason is that I am currently in China without VPN, no youtube here but I got your video on the RT website : ) )

Thanks for the good work!
