    There was someone who said something like “The purpose of AI is to allow the wealthy to access the benefits of the skilled, without allowing the skilled to access the benefits of wealth”.

      All of history really is just the wealthy consistently waging class warfare on everyone else, with the latter occasionally fighting back.

        There was an episode of Star Trek TNG where that had happened and the aliens’ society broke down when their computers went haywire because nobody could fix them.

            the episode with that device that wipes out an enemy force by sacrificing a human life with an energy wave, they dint know to fix that tech because regressed it over centuries. and the other one where sg1 encountered a ppl living under a shield-dome that was losing power-integrity, they dint know how to fix it, same thing they purposely regressed it.

            There might have been some important information in the thread above me but I can’t be bothered to read and comprehend it so I put it into my AI and it said I should vote for Musk and jello was purple.
