Get your point, but I was referring to recent history given the context of his statement.
I’d argue that it’s still worse now too… Seeing as we have everything from little kids in Africa foraging heaping dumps of toxic electronics waste from first-world nations and burning it in piles to extract metals - destroying their health and lives in the process - to Palantir AI literally drone-striking children’s all-girls primary schools that it mislabels as terrorist targets and wiping out hundreds of children at a time…
I do not accept that cowardly ‘it was the AI’ excuse to absolve them from their DELIBERATE hits on 100’s of schools hospitals and medicine factories in Iran.
The USSA did it decades before AI. Disgusting that these weasels don’t even have the guts to admit it
And the USSA population largely doesn’t give a fuck about those Iranian or other dead girls.
They are against the war, but their objections are that gas prices are high and risking those brave hero baby killing soldiers lives.
I agree. The problem isn’t the AI or technology in general - per Hawking’s quote.
It’s the people in charge of making decisions about how to use the technology and what aspects of it to advance.
Yes, the AI guided target decisions and missile technology propelled it to the ground, but it was the ‘Department of War’ that decided there was no need for human intelligence to validate and ensure targets are legitimate, that collateral damage is unimportant, and that missiles should be double-tapping to kill first responders (the Iran school was hit twice). All disgusting examples of the worst people humanity has to offer - and they presently run the USA govt, and some of the most valuable tech businesses within.
I believe the little kids crawling in working machines during the industrial revolution when all of this shit started might disagree
That still goes on, we just mostly moved it away from the Western countries. Mostly.

OK, but your comment didn’t say that so it enforces the ‘mistake’ narrative.
And what do you mean ‘presently’?
As I said, it has never been different.
Oh yeah… Def… definitely doesn’t happen any more. Just, uh, don’t look anywhere around the world and you can keep believing that…
