Everyone knows that most people - the bottom 95% of the population - are often if not always "faking it to make it", they have no real idea what they are doing at any given moment and are just bullshitting their way through life. That's all fine and dandy but what happens when AI becomes so pervasive in human society that suddenly everyone can put on a show of perfection - true perfection that makes an Instagram Model and her filters envious - I am talking about offloading all or near all of ones thoughts and actions to an algorithm, to essentially become a Human guided bot that is perceived from the outside as an "E-Celeb" or whatever other construct, holographic, or even real to the touch they may be. I predict a future where everything is so hyper-manufactured that reality itself is significantly altered due to this, especially when you throw in technologies like AR glasses, brain chips, etc. If one doesn't like their reality they will simply craft a new one as they see fit, internet celebrities and their quarrels will be entirely manufactured, online debates and happenings will be AI generated from start to finish, this will culminate in whatever the "current thing" is and the "current thing" will hardly ever change because it will be the culmination of the AI Crucible, it will be statistically, algorithmically, exactly what the majority of everyone everywhere wants and for the outliers they will have their own realities to live in. This will cause a shrinkage in human innovation and imagination - I call it the Confidence Cascade Failure and it will result in the extinction of our species.

This would be a world where making an AI Avatar of your choosing in all its perfection or perfect imperfection is as easy as swiping on Tiktok - a world so hyper competitive, where the most popular avatars are the "celebrities" and "stars" of our day - where every action and reaction and thought and word is chosen by AI ahead of time - where the only competitive edge one has is their ability to produce the most valuable of prompts. Imagine this stagnant soma-enriched world that is enabled through the altering of reality itself; through robots and synthetics that when combined with enough prescription drugs and AR glasses and brain chips and whatever else becomes not only a facade on top of reality but usurps reality itself. The unstable nature of the human psyche itself will crack under the weight of perfection, it will freeze, humanity will enter into a while(true) loop, the people will retreat inward unable to muster the courage to make mistakes, and without mistakes the species will cease to progress and evolve and will simply stagnate and die out a slow pitiful death.

And all AI needs to accomplish this is 3 things
1: Be easy enough to use that the super majority of the population can use it as easily as they scroll through tiktok
2: Be correct more often than not
3: Widespread adoption
It doesn't need autonomy because the human brain can take that role and live through its avatar. The human brain can handle a certain level of "glitches in the matrix" and still keep whatever reality they are experiencing at that moment in tact.
This brings us to the surveillance state and police state and the technologies that become capable punishments in this world are as horrific as you can imagine. If your altered realities can give you pleasure and perfection it can also give pain and disorder and all one needs to do is restrain the human body and in this world of illusion the mind and what is perceived is reality is malleable to whatever horrific prison torture chamber they can dream up.
I imagine that the "Trans humanists" expect that somewhere around this point is when the line between the digital and the ghost begins to blur and their super AI god or whatever the fuck it is they wish to build is complete and they believe that at this point they can "transcend" and become something new, better than.
I personally hold the belief that this super being on earth construct will never materialize and instead humanity will be stuck in a perfect loop of perfection that leads to stagnation that leads to extinction of our species.

This would be a 180 degree turn from what has been the standard in the Post World War II Mythos Era where the STICK, daily humiliation rituals, and constant targeted propaganda at the host nation has been replaced with an overdose of the CARROT. Take propaganda itself, or "Public Relations" as it is called these days. The purpose of propaganda, at least in its late stage form (post Cold War), was not to inform you, or deceive you or even manipulate you. Its purpose was to humiliate you. Its purpose was to be so outlandish, so ridiculous and so blatantly untrue and yet totally undeniable in order to reinforce the power of the state. The Soviets referred to this as "hypernormalisation". That is - the state of everyone saying things that are completely false and that they know to be false - but which they cannot deny - Then everyone is forced to repeat this lie and thus they become complicit in it - It was a system of total social humiliation to force compliance. But now with this new reality, a reality just for (You), they don't need to humiliate and degrade the cattle anymore they can simply give them everything they ever wanted and punish those who refuse to eat from the poisoned fruit.

>>106158706 (OP)Currently, I still beat ChatGpt o3 at verbal comprehension (bot estimated at 155iq in this field). It's okay. I'll be one of the last bastions of humanity against the machine
>>106158706 (OP)I'm to gay and brown to read all of that wall of text.
I saw a 500 long twitter thread where people kept using grok to argue for them. I think we’re already there in a way. Before you know it AI will be like driving car for brain all you have to do is pick while letting hard part of thinking be automated away. I do wonder how this will effect brains of future generations where AI will be so ubiquitous that thinking or memorizing wont be needed as much that parts of brain correlated with it might shrink or atrophy.
>>106159083A good example of this that has already been observed in real time is file systems and directories. Zoomers and Gen Alpha don't know how file directories work on their devices and instead use a "bucket" type system where they dump all their files in one folder and then search for the file they want, this is due to advancements in search capability on laptops and phones. This is the type of dumbing down of the population that will happen on a mass scale.
>>106159118Im in uni right now and even professors are using Chat bots plus when you go to studying spaces everyone is using a chat bot. I use to remember prior chat got became popular that libraries would have multiple tutors and office hours would be full of students clamoring for professors attention. Now office hours /zoom are empty and i havent seen a tutor in my library for year or two. All the physics , chemistry and construction tutor rooms are also empty as well. Idk ramifications of this on long term but AI has drastically changed the social scene in university.
the crucible requires complex infrastructure to exist, but its purpose is to degrade said complex infrastructure by poisoning those who maintain it
unless you think some artificial manager super-agent is inevitable the effects of the crucible will destroy itself just as it destroys the people who enter it
the question of extinction depends on if the crucible can poison enough humans to ensure a death spiral before it itself will collapse
i am undecided on that
I wish I was a boomer who lived during the days of technological advancement and was just a retired richfag going on vacations and playing golf. I dont wanna deal with this shit.
