A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

1) Be nice and; have fun

2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason

5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

I remember watching the Netflix series about him. I was shocked because I actually agreed with a lot of what he had to say about the society we're living in right now. We're at the brink of AI being a force that is no longer controllable. We're seeing deepfakes and other shit that will ruin peoples life. And we're moving towards a society where everything can be replaced with code.
I myself have grown up to these changes and it's insane how much our world has changed over the last 30 years. It's shocking.
I think the next hundred years will bring more changes to humanity than the last 10,000 years have. We have devised methods to gaslight ourselves; we're moving into a world where the concept of truth is malleable and unknowable. The machines will get smarter, the rich will get richer. I'll be 66 years old in about a month. I have many more yesterdays than tomorrows. I'm not looking forward to leaving this world, but I'm not particularly interested in being a participant in what comes next.
