I agree strongly with his take.
AI reminds me of the scenes from Starship Troopers where the computer explains some information. I know that was a fascist society, but it was basically brainwashing the population in some ways.
Honestly I’m not a fan of either things. I think only knowledge is freedom, and the key there is freedom to search for knowledge not just take in whatever and move on.
Unfortunately 90% of people are lazy af so the best thing we the 10% can do is just see everyone as customers. They don’t share my ideals on society or lifestyle or anything. They do like to consume mindlessly though, like oblivious cows grazing all the way to the slaughterhouse. AI will make it far easier to keep people in line.
