2030 Ad parody - Musk, Bezos, Altman new business (AI-generated but good).

2. I'm trying to understand your vigilance on this topic.

Are you trying to stop AI from existing by getting everyone to boycott? If so, that genie is already out of the bottle. Individual boycotts won't do anything to stop it. It has infiltrated every interaction in our lives. At best, we can refuse individually to interact with AI agents whenever possible.

I think a better approach to the AI threat is to raise the alarm, and generate immediate deliberation about how society will deal with the threat. The example I posted is actually a pretty good critique of AI, based on the Citrini report about how it will destroy jobs.

The Citrini report calls for immediate deliberation and response to the destruction AI is/will cause. This vid reaches people who haven't heard of the report or read it. I think that is a good thing.

...Or are you trying to prevent people on DU from viewing or posting anything with AI in it?

I think at this point, the line between AI creation by machines and humans is too blurred. AI parody appears commonly in political ads, Colbert, etc. Some of the most effective political messaging I've seen was produced by humans using AI imagery to rapidly respond to events of concern.

While i appreciate your concern about the proliferation of AI and its threat to the world -- a concern that I share deeply -- I'm not sure that policing OPs on DU is useful.
