Lack of predictive power related to a new technology has nothing to do with understanding. McLuhan did not predicted LLM power to catch language and control all other tehchnologies. But he understood what they are.
Kurzweil predicted way more better what A.I. will become but he understand not much about medias history and what means A.I. creation...
My goal was not to predict what A.I. will become as such, it is now where we are and easy to predict it : overpowering of human intelligence and society as it was...
My goal in my posts was pointing to a threat to our free threefold social fabric precisely as a threefold organism instead of being one layer of technocratic control...(the Terminator scenario is Hollywood for now) .
Now i conveyed some prediction about A.I. artificial consciousness over merely artificial intelligence as it is now, but the scientist which book i recommended about that , is not a quack or a mere philosopher, he is the greatest pionner in microtubules structure as time crystals.. He developed the concrete mathematics of A.C. and created the first artificial brain concretely.
Then... You shot the messenger without knowing about the message yet or discarded it politely indeed.....
You are a person i respect a lot... You even read one of the book i recommended ...I dont remember that many had read some articles i recommended on acoustics here ...
My best to you sincerely...
I read your posts recommendation in audio as wise advices...
Thanks.
I think I know what I am trying to say. Your world view is too speculative and abstract to make concrete predictions as to what is and is not possible in the future with an evolving technology. Particularly in light of the empirical evidence and progress made in the AI world over the last 20 years.
