I was referring to extracting value meaning real value verses a nominal value. You can predict the future using economic cycles over hundreds to thousands of years. Also, human vices and virtues drive similar actions over time. People exploit people with new tools and technologies and the technologies take on a life of their own. Thinking AGI is going to instantly change all that for the good, as in some immantized eschaton is naïve. Are there laws that protect us if it goes wrong? I keep hearing now about nano dust already in the food and have seen recent congressional hearings on weapons being used that modify human minds remotely. These technologies are deployed and our reactions take years... in some cases decades. Judging by recent events we need to self-organize since our governments are not going to protect us. In fact, it’s going in the direction of overthrowing governments likely leading to new governmental structures. Big tech is already embedded and fused with big gov't. But the real government is the central banks. Central bank behavior is another input into the predictor.... unless AGI makes central banks somehow magically go away :) That is also naïve thinking IMO. ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/T17fa3f27f63a882a-Mf9e859a8fd420b8c363401cd Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
