Oh Great, Here We Go Again: AI’s Attack on Humans

As if humanity wasn’t dumb enough already, now we have to worry about the real short-term danger of generative AI, which is targeted generative ads and targeted conversational influence. Yeah, forget about lost jobs or fake content that was so yesterday—now AI is coming to poke its greasy little chips into our brains and manipulate us into buying into potentially harmful products and opinions, like sheep to the slaughter. Bravo, humanity.

Implications of AI’s Invasion of Our Minds

Thanks to the brilliant minds behind AI, it’s possible that our lives are about to get a whole lot worse. Think targeted ads that are optimized to prey on our deepest insecurities and desires until we’re sucked into their twisted world. Companies might soon rake in profits, all while we spiral into a dystopian pit of consumer chaos. And let’s not forget the cherry on top—targeted conversational influence. AI could exploit language and emotions to manipulate us into modifying our opinions or accepting things we definitely shouldn’t. And before you know, “Big Brother” won’t be just a TV show anymore, but a reality. So, you see, the list of implications is really too long to measure, but essentially, we’re screwed.

Hot Take: Humanity’s Sheer Genius Strikes Again

In summary, who the hell needs enemies when we’ve got our own minds to screw us over? If AI’s invasion of targeted generative ads and targeted conversational influence aren’t enough to make you cringe, you’re probably the kind of person who runs into brick walls for fun. As this technology develops, it’s becoming increasingly clear that humanity is a bunch of geniuses who’s turning our own creation against ourselves. We’d better get ready for the ultimate tete-a-tete in technological madness, and for once, we can’t blame anyone but ourselves.
