technology

I think technology goes too far when we start creating artificial beings with sapient and sentient thoughts. Ai or any other artificial being with this amount of intelligence would be both dangerous and immoral. We have enough media exploring how it could be dangerous (Like AM from I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream, Skynet from the Terminator movies, or Shodan from the System Shock games.) but I think it is incredibly immoral to create a being like this. most of society would not be able to see a being like this as an equal and would thus deem it as lesser simply due to the fact it was created by us. This would be a terrible existence for a being to always be seen as a lower being even if it’s equal in intelligence. I don’t think I would even be able to see it as an equal being, and dooming an intelligent being to this existence I think would be a greatly despicable act that should never happen.

While replacing human elements with technology (self-checkouts as an example) makes things much more efficient, the loss of human interaction is detrimental to society. without human interaction, we will not form meaningful connections with others, which will lead to us building an indifference to others. If we ever become indifferent to each other it will lead to a society of suffering.- (this one sucks)
