Ai double edged sword one would suggest.
Science could potentially benefit, the interpretation of vast amounts of data quickly (AI and supercomputers) could enable unparalleled insight and advancement of knowledge.
Regenerative AI is a platform for massive change, both social & behavioral but will this change be at worst benign?
The concept has potential to be exploited for self interest (profit motive) which could lead to degradation of quality of life especially in the western world. Anyway humanity will muddle through I guess, its good at that but not necessarily in an aspirational way from general observation.
What intrigues is when AI reaches an iteration which contains the potential for conscious thought and therefore decisions on behalf of its creators, what value systems, philosophies, ethics by necessity will support such actions?
The garage would like to suggest it will be benign and be aligned with the concept of ‘balance’ in all things to the benefit of the majority of humans.
If so the 1
st conclusion AI would probably draw would be humans far from being the solution are indeed the problem if only through the waste and pollution created by the ever-increasing size and unsustainability of its biomass, so the ‘cull’ in on.
The decision making process on which sub species to go 1
st with AI hopefully a benign ‘balanced’ benefactor would be karma based, what you ‘put in’ is what is ‘taken out’ therefore the boomers are on borrowed time as at productive end of working lives, once AI has gotten rid of those things the ‘X’ers would come into the gunsights (BH, hound & I are X’ers, if you include the 7x rule for the hound), bit of a worry.
The culling method logic would suggest would be power surges through light switches, good clean exit strategy, AI knows who you are and where you live, just a matter of sending a ‘cleansing surge’ down the grid on behalf of future humanity.
Our investment group covers all demographics from 20 somethings right through to hard nuts in their 80’s but have noticed a trend to rubber soled shoes among the more successful traders in the higher numbered crowd, indeed taking the 1
st rule of trading ‘protect your capital’ seriously, the group very much a long-term thinking organism.
Better still get an ‘off gridder’ and a good perimeter hound, you heard it here 1st.
Market wise not much of a week for the lads, best can be said we didn’t actually lose any money. Coming up to major 4c, 4d and 4e cycle in end of FY, time to concentrate on those stocks with good numbers but overshadowed last time around (or retraced with time) that could support a definitive ‘rerate’ argument. There are a few of them.
