[QUOTE="talien, post: 9138205, member: 3285"] Worrying about AI self-awareness is unfortunately not an issue society seems to care much about. People treat animals that we know have a level of self-awareness as, well animals, and no lawsuit has progressed enough to see chimps as being elevated in any way ([URL="https://science.time.com/2013/12/02/chimps-human-rights-lawsuit/"]Do Chimps Have Human Rights? This Lawsuit Says Yes | TIME.com[/URL]) The real, immediate threat is that AI is completely destroying the Internet's tenuous connection to reality. AI can fake it all, including fake being us. It can fake it so well that it can out fake the fakers. The Internet is already overcome with bots, and much of social media resources are dedicated to trying to determine if anyone is "real" -- but it's fast becoming irrelevant (30% of web traffic is bots [URL="https://www.statista.com/statistics/1264226/human-and-bot-web-traffic-share/"]Human and bot web traffic share 2022 | Statista[/URL]). It doesn't matter if you're real anymore, because that has little meaning for most Internet interactions anyway. We're fast approaching a world where the only thing you can trust is what you actually, physically experience in person, and you will have to assume that everything on the Internet is a fabrication. It's great for role-playing games, where we'll have fully-realized AI actors we can instruct to respond to us in real time.
