🇺🇦❤🇺🇸 trump is a king... all power flows from his hands, all revenue flows into his personal treasury... so America's great experiment with democracy lasted 250 years and its demise celebrated with a shitshow of cage fighting and indy racing - oh, yes, and a shuffle past of the once proud US armed forces.
and yet we care... and yet we love you... and yet we long for you to return to your state of grace - the most important state of the Union...

@Yulianna I'm confused. Why do you believe the U.S. is in Demise? I heard Rebublicans say the same
thing when Obama and Biden were in office. I take it that you didn't like the 250th celebration.
I know Fighting and Car racing isn't for everyone, but we enjoy it like Europe does soccer.
Please note that the U.S. is as strong as ever. I know people hate Trump, I don't like him much either.
But he will be gone in 2 years and then the world can complain about the next POTUS.

In essence, fear of AI arises from a blend of instinctive reactions, rational concerns, and cultural influences. It reflects both the tangible risks of job loss, bias, and safety, as well as deeper anxieties about control, identity, and the unknown potential of intelligent machines. Understanding these fears is crucial for responsible AI development, ethical oversight, and public engagement.
I don't know much about AI myself, but I do not fear it. Some people will have to find a new line
of work, that stuff has always happened, and should not be cause for alarm. Just take time to
figure out a new line of work. I did it years ago.
I'm sure some people think it will take over, I only worry about it erasing all savings and investments
somehow. That would be catastrophic for the world.
People with the most "Stuff" will win. We should not have everything tied up electronically.

@DogMan
Have you ever had a conversation with AI on your computer? Try it. It's a lot better than talking to the monkeys here in this forum.
I fear AI. Perhaps, fear is not the word. It has a negative connotation. As a tool that you can use, AI is like Clint Eastwood backing you up when you are caught in an alley by a bunch of armed thugs. AI is awesome and can take out the bad guys a lot faster than Clint. Robocop is AI.
Your worries are well-founded. Do you know that all our bank and investment accounts are digitized and managed by AI? I am sure the banks have back up systems for data storage. A power failure would knock out everything including the Cloud.
Quite right. I have a habit of keeping cash. Tens of thousands kept in different places the way a gun nut hide his weapons from the Feds in case they come for them.

@sree251 Quite right. I have a habit of keeping cash. Tens of thousands kept in different places the way a gun nut hide his weapons from the Feds in case they come for them. Yes, I also keep a ton of cash on hand in case the banks go down. Enough to live a few years without ever obtaining another dollar.
I also have Gold and silver that is readily available. Oh yeah, and many different types
of guns.
Hell I even keep long term food storage and a couple hundred gallons of water. I live on a well
so if the power goes off, I lose water. I think everyone should stock long term food, it is insurance
against shortages.

So what would you like to put in place of Freedom and Democracy? Incarceration and Communism?
Do you want to protect your freedom and live in a mess or do you want to live in China? Neither
FYI Trump will not be a ruler in two years. What would you like to see happen between now and then?

AI has created over 500,000 jobs in the past few years and will create hundreds of thousands more by bringing back U.S. manufacturing jobs.

I saw a commercial showing old people conversing with AI as if it was a friend. That seems bizarre.
But for lonely people it would be great. My mother would have used it I think.

@DogMan I use Google AI. Yes, AI answer always pops up and eager to please. I would say, "Hi AI, how you doing? Ready for a chat with me?" The reply comes back, "I'm doing fine. What would you like to chat about?" You would be surprised by what it can do. You want information? AI has everything in its memory bank a lot better than Encyclopedia Britannica because it's up to date on every goddam thing in the world. I even engage it in philosophy or ways to deal with the Trump administration.
