My problem with this is of course the impact on youth unemployment and the decline of youth well-being we have seen in the last 10 years of mobile app addiction. If there are less jobs that are entry level for new graduates, what do they have to look forward to on an internet filled with AI slop from YouTube to the rest with manipulative chatbots downgrading their creative and independent thinking with repetitive summaries wearing clothes of super intelligence? Now youth unemployment is already fairly high in countries with the high skewing of demographics to below 25. How does AI make things better for the future of the planet? And namely, as wealth inequality soars and geopolitical uncertainty fragments the world, how do increasingly efficient killer robots make the planet more safe?
