Collective Human intellect — stronger than the most capable AI

Question from the Internet:

“Why is artificial intelligence considered a threat to humanity?”

Because we like to scare ourselves and others with everything we can.

In truth, the only thing we should be scared of is ourselves.

There is nothing else wrong with the world but our own, inherently self-serving, self-justifying, subjective, and exploitative nature. It is this human ego that turns everything into the tools of exploitation, oppression, weapons, it is this human ego that drives us to survive and succeed at each other’s expense.

If any robots, AI ever become hostile, that is also only because we program, create them, we copy our own “cancer-like” software into them.

All our past and present problems originate from our own behavior, attitude, inclinations, and actions. Thus the only thing that needs to change in the world is our selves.

We have to change, upgrade our original internal software — which we purposefully received from Nature thus it is not a sin or evil — so instead of exploiting using everything and everybody for our own selfish sake, we start acting, thinking, behaving collectively, only for the benefit, the wellbeing of the whole collective — by copying Nature’s perfectly balanced integral template into our relationships, into the fabric of human society.

Then we will build a unique, Human, collective intellect, consciousness — infinitely stronger, more capable than any AI we can invent — that will be comprised from the extreme opposites of our inherently cancer-like nature, and the methodically, purposefully acquired Natural upgrade, allowing us to research, attain reality within the vast contrast.

This is why evolution created us selfish, egoistic, while also giving us a unique human intellect that is capable of critical self-assessment, initiating self-change, self-upgrade so we could take our human development into our own hands and reach our very unique, unparalleled, evolutionary human role in Nature’s system.
