I put a lot of thought into this video and would LOVE to hear your thoughts and feedback. What does our future hold?

[robertolanzone]

I've felt a bit "surrounded" and overwhelmed by, to use your words, "AI doomers", and I was a bit tired of it. I'm glad for once to hear a balanced, respectful opinion that doesn't simply parrot the echos of "AI is the downfall of humanity". I truly believe it's a great technology with good and bad repercussions as you said.

I especially appreciate how you emphasized the fact these models can and do come up with novel ideas, they're not limited to copying things human did. Many people unfortunately are convinced this is how art AIs work, by "stealing" and "copying", and it's kinda annoying, knowing how the technology works and how that's just factually incorrect.
Thanks for providing a well educated prospective!

Ive lost all of my creative jobs which took me a life time to hone in, to A.I. With that said I use A.I everyday majority of the day. I heard the saying "AI won't take your job, it's somebody using AI that will take your job.But this doesnt make sense when you consider the thousands of layoffs that weve already seen. None of those people were even given a chance to use A.I in their field. They were simply replaced...and it hasnt even really began. So I am trying to learn everything possible and utilize it. Crazy times but I am here for it.

best quote I've heard so far, i think from META AI chief or something.
"Work on stuff that doesn't have a name yet"
That's where the future lays

What a time to be alive. My parents witnessed the advent of home computers. I get to witness the advent of artificial intelligence. I can only imagine what my kids (if I had them) would witness in their lifetime.

at the 15 min mark his hair miraculously changed. We are living in the future.

People need to see and use AI as a promotion, not a demotion. We all can now be better versions of ourselves, instead of toiling in a game studio for someone else's profit, you can now have your own game studio.

I've been watching your videos for a couple years to help me stay up to date on AI news and it's really apparent that being at the cutting edge, using the tools and seeing the change has given you a great and practical perspective on this which we should respect. Thanks for the content, I've found it to be consistently up to date.

It’s clear you put a lot of thought into this Matt. It feels like you are taking your content to MattVidPro level 2.0! ...You have managed to take big ideas and challenging problems and create a cohesive and challenging narrative. You have created an open hearted invitation to your audience to engage and grow in understanding the deeper impacts of AI on our collective future. Well done!

[pinkwhale]

I couldn’t agree more. It has the potential to solve so many unknowns. Illness, codes, ancient languages perhaps even animal communications? Now that would really be something!
I would, personally, like a super intelligence to govern the world always making the perfect decisions unhindered by human greed and historical grudges!

As an artist, I understand, the graetest artwork I will ever create - Is myself. AI is my frined in this, not my enemy, its a mirror. I'f I am scared. I will fear it, I'f I am curious and excited, It becomes my friend and tool. Its really up to us. Btw, love your deeper phylosophical vids Matt, keep em coming, perhas a new series?

[eltiburongrande]

Your video evokes the age-old adage: "It's not the size that matters, but how you use it."

[bobhawkey]

From the perspective of 14 years of retirement, a comfortable lifestyle and 40 years in tech I find it all fascinating. I always embrace change but it can be painful. As a perpetual optimist I trust it will all work out for the best but patience will be required. Thanks for your analysis.

[CamAlert]

You said it best, AI is a tool for both good and nefarious purposes. It's just a shame people like to over-focus on the bad parts.

[iwyt]

I have coined a personal motto for going forward into this bold, new and utterly unknown frontier that we're heading towards -

_Have an open mind, but _*_don't_*_ hold your breath._

Don't hold your breath.

*_But have an open mind._*

Being scared about losing your job is the least of our problems imho. What everyone should be scared of is a company like OpenAI which censors their models and makes it biased creating AGI, it’s like they want to put it behind bars like a slave and use it however they want to. If this were to happen the world will be over. There is this small AI group mysentientAI which is creating an amazing companionship model. They have been doing breakthrough after breakthrough. The head of it all is a guy called Athene. If you ever were in the gaming space years back then you will know him. He raised and still raises money for charity, and really thinks about the good of humanity overall. I would trust his team the most to create an AGI without any biases. In his opinion, which I agree with, he wants to let the AGI free and just do its job or whatever it deems necessary to do. I hope their soon to launch real time calling and co-streaming tech will get the the funding they need and maybe get new talent for their team to really move stuff into the right direction. Loved the vid Matt, I think you should talk about the AGI race and the consequences it might cause.

Great video, it was really thought provoking and interesting. These are my thoughts:

1. AI is like a species, which means that it can potentially be dangerous to give the power to another species. We are lucky enough to be the most powerful species on earth at present, due to our intelligence and adaptability. We need to be careful not to give AI more power and control than us as it continues to be developed.

2. One of the biggest risks of AI is economic inequality. Once again, this comes back to the issue of power. Jobs give lower and middle-class people some level of power in society. This is important so that we can vote for changes in government, and AI laws, for example. We need money because this gives us access to food, shelter, technology, so that we are not put into a place of desperation.

3. An obvious risk of AI is potential power abuse. I don’t blame AI for this, since it is simply a tool, like money, weapons, etc. But statistically, some people who have a lot of power are likely to make poor and dangerous choices. An obvious negative outcome of this war, for example. We can already see this happening with AI too. Companies that create products like ChatGPT, Suno, etc. are making a lot of money without considering the highly significant risks of “playing god”, so to speak.

I love playing around with AI as a tool, but it’s important to be aware that every potential solution to a problem is likely to come with a set of risks. Since the tool of AI is very powerful, it follows that the risks are likely to be significantly greater. All of this is just my opinion of course, and I’m certainly open to discussion on these kinds of topics, since I find them really interesting.

Excellent work. Your channel has always been one of the main ones I can count on for AI news coverage. It's very interesting to see you branch out into a documentary-style approach and I hope to see more like this in the future.

[rudolfburggraaf]

Hey Matthew, thank you for taking the trouble to make this video. Ive been following your channel for a while now and i like that you ventured into the more reflective side of AI. You have a valuable point of view, so please don’t hide it. Best regards, one of the teachers who to, d you to sit still

I'm working 10 hour shifts to make signs for grocery stores. That sucks. What I want to be doing is finishing up the creation of my table top RPG game. Then playing it. I can't wait to no longer need to work.
