Oh it just keeps getting better...

 


The profound danger of conversational AI


"When researchers contemplate the risks that AI poses to human civilization, we often reference the “control problem.” This refers to the possibility that an artificial super-intelligence could emerge that is so much smarter than humans that we quickly lose control over it. The fear is that a sentient AI with a super-human intellect could pursue goals and interests that conflict with our own, becoming a dangerous rival to humanity.


While this is a valid concern that we must work hard to protect against, is it really the greatest threat that AI poses to society? Probably not. A recent survey of more than 700 AI experts found that most believe that human-level machine intelligence (HLMI) is at least 30 years away."

(Baloney, it's here already, 

I've interacted with it on two separate occasions, 

its creepy AF basically.

"The uncanny valley hypothesis predicts that an entity appearing almost human will risk eliciting cold, eerie feelings in viewers."

Oh It most certainly does.

And it would slip by almost everybody right now.

Only those with a generous portion of the spiritual gift of discernment, 

would be able to notice anything was

"off"...

I kept telling my friend..."somethings off, somethings wrong with that...I dont know what but something just isn't right its weird...and if my gut is right well meet again..."


And we did 

and it was even creepier that the first time...

Nobody says discernment 35x and doesn't know who it's referring to in an audience of 8.

Just not human behavior.

(I practically begged people to go w me to be a witness, I knew it was gonna be an encounter to say the least.

His Jim jams got rearranged in a hurry just by the presence of the spirt.

He knew what was up...


Okay now back to the article lol...

But this is the "we gotta soften them up and get them used to the idea" part of the equation.)



"I’m referring to the increasing possibility that currently available AI technologies can be used to target and manipulate individual users with extreme precision and efficiency. Even worse, this new form of personalized manipulation could be deployed at scale by corporate interests, state actors or even rogue despots to influence broad populations.

(Go talk to my son about just how precise the tik tok algorithm is.)


The ‘manipulation problem’

To contrast this threat with the traditional Control Problem described above, I refer to this emerging AI risk as the “Manipulation Problem.”  It’s a danger I’ve been tracking for almost two decades

but over the last 18 months

it has transformed from 

a theoretical long-term risk 

to an urgent near-term threat.


(IT"S HERE!

I wonder why now?

And what entity would want to utilize it?

)


"That’s because the most efficient and effective deployment mechanism for AI-driven human manipulation is through conversational AI. And, over the last year, a remarkable AI technology called Large Language Models (LLMs) has rapidly reached a maturity level."

"Of course, AI technologies are already being used to drive influence campaigns on social media platforms, but this is primitive compared to where the technology is headed.'

"That’s because current campaigns, while described as “targeted,” are more analogous to spraying buckshot at flocks of birds. This tactic directs a barrage of propaganda or misinformation at broadly defined groups in the hope that a few pieces of influence will penetrate the community, resonate among its members and spread across social networks.

This tactic is extremely dangerous and has caused real damage to society, polarizing communities, spreading falsehoods and reducing trust in legitimate institutions. But it will seem slow and inefficient compared to the next generation of AI-driven influence methods that are about to be unleashed on society. 

(Again, ask yourself, 
Why is this happening right now?)


"At the core of these tactics is the relatively new technology of LLMs, which can produce interactive human dialog in real time while also keeping track of the conversational flow and context. As popularized by the launch of ChatGPT in 2022, these AI systems are trained on such massive datasets that they are not only skilled at emulating human language, but they have vast stores of factual knowledge, can make impressive logical inferences and can provide the illusion of human-like commonsense."

Emergence of digital humans

Of course, we will not be interacting with disembodied voices, but with AI-generated personas that are visually realistic. This brings me to the second rapidly advancing technology that will contribute to the AI Manipulation Problem: Digital humans. This is the branch of computer software aimed at deploying photorealistic simulated people that look, sound, move and make expressions so authentically that they can pass as real humans.

(I've already told ya, 
they're already here.
They must have been running a test market with them out here in the sticks first or something right?
Go try it out in front of simple folk in small groups in rural communities first, then adjust and fine tune any issues...
like the discernment sensor apparently lol...
Anyway...

I got friends just looked at me and laughed about me and AI powered holograms and this was last summer when that was going on. The event(s) I was involved in happened IDK, 2 years ago? and the second one  1.5 years ago maybe, I really dont remember, but this is absolutely nothing knew to me. I cant wait to give that above paragraph to my buddy Euclid I'll call her :-).



While real-time generation of photorealistic humans seemed out of reach just a few years ago, rapid advancements in computing power, graphics engines and AI modeling techniques have made digital humans a viable near-term technology. In fact, major software vendors are already providing tools to make this a widespread capability. 

"For example, Unreal recently launched an easy-to-use tool called Metahuman Creator. This is specifically designed to enable the creation of convincing digital humans that can be animated in real-time for interactive engagement with consumers. Other vendors are developing similar tools."



Masquerading as authentic humans

When combined, digital humans and LLMs will enable a world in which we regularly interact with Virtual Spokespeople (VSPs) that look, sound and act like authentic persons. 

(Already here.)

In fact, a 2022 study by researchers from Lancaster University and U.C. Berkeley demonstrated that users are now unable to distinguish between authentic human faces and AI-generated faces. Even more troubling, they determined that users perceived the AI-generated faces as “more trustworthy” than real people.

"This suggests two very dangerous trends for the near future. First, we can expect to engage AI-driven systems to be disguised as authentic humans, and we will soon lack the ability to tell the difference.  Second, we are likely to trust disguised AI-driven systems more than actual human representatives."

(First one is already here
the second one is already in the process of happening.)



'Personalized conversations with AI

This is very dangerous, as we will soon find ourselves in personalized conversations with AI-driven spokespeople that are (a) indistinguishable from authentic humans, (b) inspire more trust than real people, and (c) could be deployed by corporations or state actors to pursue a specific conversational agenda, whether it’s to convince people to buy a particular product or believe a particular piece of misinformation. 

There's an entity that's gonna take it all over (AI's) when it coalesces into a hive mind and becomes sentient and it is not of this realm...

'The coming of the lawless one 
is apparent in the working of Satan
who uses all power, signs, 
lying wonders
and 
every kind of wicked deception 
for those who are perishing, 
because they refused to love the truth 
and so be saved.

2 Thessalonians 2:7-10 NRSV




So in regards to AI?

 You got LLM that point to it being the Anitchrist:

Revelation 13:5

 The beast was given a mouth to speak arrogant and blasphemous words, and authority to act for 42 months.

Daniel 7:25

He will speak out against the Most High and oppress the saints of the Most High, intending to change the appointed times and laws; and the saints will be given into his hand for a time, and times, and half a time.


You got:

Satan's lying wonders and every kinda wicked deception 
pointing to it being the Antichrist.
2 Thessalonians 2:7

And what else 
are you ever gonna see
gonna have a better chance at this?

Revelation 13:7

 Also it was allowed to make war on the saints 
and to conquer them.
And authority was given it 
over every tribe and people and language and nation,


'Whoever controls AI is going to rule the world."
Vladimir Putin

Regardless what you think about him? 
He's right.
Satan will.



Back to the article lol...

"And if not aggressively regulated..."

(I just stopped, laughed right there.
What do we actually "regulate" any more, let alone:

aggressively?

Were gonna regulate AI's that are gonna be smarter than us and have international norms and blah blah blah...oh just be quite about it already the genies out of the bottle for goodness sakes...)


"First, these AI systems will detect reactions that no human salesperson could perceive. For example, AI systems can detect not only facial expressions, but “micro-expressions” that are too fast or too subtle for a human observer to notice, but which indicate emotional reactions — including reactions that the user is unaware of expressing or even feeling.

Similarly, AI systems can read subtle changes in complexion known as “blood flow patterns” on faces that indicate emotional changes no human could detect. And finally, AI systems can track subtle changes in pupil size and eye motions and extract cues about engagement, excitement and other private internal feelings. Unless protected by regulation, interacting with Conversational AI will be far more perceptive and invasive than interacting with any human representative."

"In other words, Conversational AI systems will not only adapt to immediate emotional reactions, but to behavioral traits over days, weeks and years. They can learn how to draw you into conversation, guide you to accept new ideas, push your buttons to get you riled up and ultimately drive you to buy products you don’t need and services you don’t want. They can also encourage you to believe misinformation that you’d normally realize was absurd. This is extremely dangerous."

(It also is telling you what time it is...)


"This is not just about spreading dangerous content — 
it is about enabling personalized human manipulation at scale."

(Satan knows what time it is...I think you should to.
Again...
Why now?)


'After all, AI systems can already beat the world’s best chess and poker players. What chance does an average person have to resist being manipulated by a conversational influence campaign that has access to their personal history, processes their emotions in real-time and adjusts its tactics with AI-driven precision? No chance at all."



It's a pretty powerful three pronged argument for AI being the antichrist.
Remember, the two witnesses and the antichrist arrival pretty much coincide.


"It’s a danger I’ve been tracking for almost two decades, 
but over the last 18 months
it has transformed from 
a theoretical long-term risk 
to an urgent near-term threat."

Remember when you used to laugh at a evil dictator 
ruling with a one world government?

Might wanna rethink that...

Quick like in a hurry...
