« on: May 08, 2024, 10:24:24 PM »Is it possible that it will become waste that will pollute the world? because we know that all human discoveries or creations will definitely have a detrimental impact and it will all probably be covered up so that not many people know about it and they think the amount of supply is very unlimited and will not have any bad effects in the future....
I thought computer and anything that involves automation are going to make our work easier and faster and everyone is happy doing that. Imagine having to use typewriter to do print a large document in 2024, that is going to be ridiculous even though we still have some institutions that use it for some specific work, the future has to be improved.
My only concern is the abuse of this artificial intelligence that are purposely designed to help the humanity and not the other way round. I could remember how people are using AI image and video to do scams and fraud people by impersonating individuals, this is wrong and need to be put to scrutiny.
In this case, we all have to come to terms with one fact - absolutely all technologies for improving life, invented by man, are also used by man to create problems for man ! It sounds strange, but if you check - it is a fact. Which simply must be recognized and accordingly develop some mechanisms to reduce the risks of possible development of negative scenarios
If I understood the question correctly - most technological processes directly or indirectly pollute the environment. What is now called "AI" - requires a lot of computing power... Then it's simple - more computing power = more electricity consumption. The only question is how this consumption will grow and how it will be covered? Controlled thermonuclear fusion, in the industrial version, is still far away. The most available sources of electricity are now nuclear power plants and thermal power plants. You can draw your own conclusions
