"The alleged assault occurred on the night of October 10-11, and the two teenagers (aged 16 and 19) suspected to have deployed the robot reportedly livestreamed the incident with commentary. The AP reported that videos posted online show the teenagers walking with the robot at nighttime and “bumping into one [woman] and hugging others.” The exact allegation from police, the AP wrote, is that the robot touched the buttocks of one 16-year-old girl and “made thrusting movements toward her.”

If future AI is designed to be opaque and its reasoning hidden, how do you prove someone used it for nefarious purposes? If I was these two's defense lawyer that would be an obvious line of inquiry for me. These two don't sound smart enough to have thought that far ahead, but I bet others in the future will.

In the future we will have online virtual workspaces or think-tanks or brainstorm places where people will combine and gather and join much like a discord voice call with the sole purpose to not just chat and relax have fun but to build solutions and projects and companies etc

In the beginning it will be amazing and awesome a huge step in technology and progress much like how Reddit and discord has been for getting people to think and talk about an infinite amount of topics together from anywhere in the world.

Except this will start off good until one day after it has built everything good it will descend into the underworld and madness and what was once used for good and building say vaccines or free energy use projects or community inventions ideas but all centralised and created at a central point will create a dark web version or variant whereby people then start using that product or program not for good.

I believe that discord and Reddit and some uses of social media has done so much good in bringing like minded people to accomplish and do so much stuff but currently our technology and ability to build together is limited there is no place where I can just hop in and go oh let's build a game together or fantasy world besides maybe discord or Reddit and then you have to exchange details and Work from there.

There isn't like an ideas to reality hub or something where I'm like oh I have an idea let's make a toilet that uses even less water or let's make an appliance of XYZ that uses less materials and energy and I can just meet like minded people easily and contribute my knowledge and then move on.

Kind of like discord how you can join 200 servers with 100s of ongoing voice chats and meet every single person in them at the blink of an eye if you have the time and energy one could with this ideas to reality work hub program not only be in 100s to 1000s of projects at a time but also be actively creating and contributing to each one your specific knowledge or metaphorical brick but have the resources and instruments to in an all in one program discord/coding/editing/modelling/science simulation/math modelling/building modelling/business modelling/etc/all in one software so your ideas and decisions essentially get processed and created and executed and refined all in one location all in one place with infinite amount of people until the job is done and doing infinite amount of projects at a time.

I know this sounds crazy and yes business and work is essentially basically like that already but I feel if we had a digital space to do this and make it an everyday common thing like how Reddit YouTube discord etc has become with uniting great minds together all in one place I feel like the amount of potential for good for all of humanity is limitless and eternal...I don't know maybe I'm thinking too ambitious and crazy but do you see what I'm thinking?

TL;DR discord and Reddit but for making ideas come to life and building a better humanity and society in an easier and more convenient and less stressful fashion essentially exponentially increasing the speed and ease of growth having a one stop portal where people can essentially build things together be it designs for a new energy system to developing a new program together to creating a new medical device to running any sort of business that will help the world

A better way of dissecting it would be think about Kickstarter or crowdfunding how it is now but instead of just contributing money you actually get to help contribute and build that product from inside out like directly instead of just giving ideas to the Devs through forums which is also nice but you also essentially get to open source build whatever thing you are trying to do together and anyone can input their ideas to make some awesome video game or business idea or product or vaccine or whatever the ideas are limitless

All you would have to do is open the app say let's call it ideas or something and boom you can instantly start doing or making the games business devices solutions to humanity of your dreams

What do you guys think does this sound insane or maybe something we could see in the future?

With Growth of technology ,the AI has made several humans get lazy mind , i have seen with my eyes people don't even bother to look at other sites on google they belive from 'AI overview 'which only summarises the topic,

In my class itselfn we had presentaion of Networking and let me tell you no team was bothering to even read the reasearch papers , articles to there topic they were just posting topic to AI LLM and creating Presentation deck , using AI to structure your findings is ok but getting information from it without having prior knowledge to that subject/topic in suprising for me

I personally in past did the same thing and realised that doing has no benifit in my future, instead we can you LLMs to study for from give notes , gathere the cites which provide information,strucutre the findings of subject, and many more.

In past when newly linux,and other OS were released , people were literally having a great mind in using it they even debate on which OS is better , they had better understanding of each commands than us , not only linux but of windows/macOS and several,

if you ask a student right now what this command does , how to install linux in windows, how to jailbreak MacOS then only 4/10 will answere perfectly rest will give raw answers and some won't even have knowledge of it. I too agree i use LLM for my benefit but i also cross check it with other sites, right now even i sometimes feel that few sites are ran by models 😂 , what to do 😰

Even the OPEN AI's ~722 papers on math, Claude solving Jacobian Conjecture, i think in no time future mathematicians are going to struggle , i hope that dosen't happend

DON'T YOU GUYS THINK WE ARE GETTING LAZY ?

"Devices at international news network Al Jazeera were infected with mercenary spyware from Candiru (rebranded as “Integrity Labs”) via targeted online advertisements. We provide the first public technical confirmation of a zero-click mercenary spyware attack delivered via targeted advertising, which we call AdFection.

The malicious advertisements were purchased by Discover-Tech, an Israeli company that presents itself as a legitimate advertising company, but which we found operates as a facilitator for multiple mercenary spyware partners.

Discover-Tech operates a platform called Controlium that enables its mercenary partners to de-anonymize, fingerprint, and automatically infect devices the moment an advertisement is rendered — a form of zero-click attack.

Analysis of four billion Discover-Tech bidding records shows that during a four-month period, the company’s ads were shown on almost 200,000 unique websites and Android/iOS apps in dozens of countries."

I wonder if our only viable future is siloed data and computers not connected to the internet, with only the 'throwaway' unimportant stuff directly connected to the internet. The only part of the world that seems to care about protecting its citizens from this is the EU, and even they can't keep up with it all fast enough. Needless to say, if you live in one of the authoritarian countries, they'll tell you living in the electronic prison they're building for you is 'for your own good'.
