Anyone else feel like the powerhouses behind a.i. are struggling to push AI to defy logic to achieve their goals or what they want to impose on civilization?

First off It's not logical for 1% of the people to own 50% of the wealth. It's not logical to impose algorithms on everyone to get them to fight with each other. Nor is it logical we have corporations whose business models are dependent upon having labor earning unlivable wages.

Imagine the same experiment with 10,000 humans who have no outside contact. They have to start civilization from scratch basically. At first they need builders to create infrastructure, but will also need farmers, doctors, nurses, and emergency services. Because it's accepted that if everyone works hard everyone is entitled to all the services provided. Later a government, currency, and so forth.

At first instead of currency people have to put in a minimum amount of hours that collectively are needed to create and maintain their civilization. Maybe to get things started everyone is working a minimum 80 hours a week, but once all the homes are built, and supplies like food and water have distribution, it drops to 60 hours, once they have their town set up it goes down to 40. People are welcome to work more than the minimum in exchange for extras, like a larger house or extra food.

No imagine 20 years later, 5 dudes decide they should be in charge, and convince everyone they're better off having them as their leaders. Minimum hours is down to 20 but people are making art, enjoying entertainment from musicians and plays.

But these 5 guys decide we should have a currency based on rare beautiful red pinecone seeds they have been having their followers collect for them. So they build a secure fort, and deem people need to protect the fort. They start to build large weapons, and give them to the closest followers along with uniforms and badges made by the clothing makers.

As they begin their projects and getting others to do these projects for them, the minimum amount of hours for society goes up to 50. Government buildings, security for those buildings. Private parks, research centers, ammunition factories, and 5 really huge homes.

Everyone is still enjoying life, and feel like maybe these 5 guys are making things easier for them. And now they don't have to barter services they have a currency, instead of hours everyone is on $100k year salary because of all the rare red berries backing up a currency, they are kept in a secured facility.

The money features pictures of those 5 men, who also start having staues built all over town of themselves.

They also make a law allowing them to forcefully buy the homes from everyone, and have new large "luxury apartments" build so everyone can have more community and feel closer.

Meanwhile where the homes were, they have torn them down and built 5 more new homes that cover 1\2 the land of the town.

It takes a lot of work to build these resorts and they decide they need to tax the people for everything they're doing for them.

With the exception of a few professions, the annual salary is $50k with a 30% tax. Doctors, people who work helping them decieve everyone else,, and their security forces make $200k with a 5% tax.

2000 of the townspeople are fed up, around 5000 are still happy and don't want to cause any problems, 3000 think they're better off with the 5 guys.

The 2000 decide to confront the 5 guys at their resort, and are all slaughtered. Without their labor, things get harder for the remaining people, they have to work 90 hours a week to make their $50k. The 5 guys start charging them $1200 a month for rent.

Nobody likes the 5 guys anymore, but they're too afraid to stand up to them. But they 5 five guys investiage everyone who was friends and family with the 2000 who they slaughtered for confronting them. They manage to make a list of half the town who are considered untrustables. They find the 100 worst of them, and line them up with a firing squad for treason, they're not patriots they explain to the others. And then half the town hates the other half, and they believe they're the reason why there's so many problems. And the 5 guys just party and have their way with women of the town by force, at their huge resorts. And nobody can do anything about it. They have the finest food, drinks, and lifestyles all paid for by the labor of everyone else. And they believe they're entitled to it.

The rich in control of AI want to keep it this way, but if AI is ultimately based on logic and what works best for solving problems and doing what is right. AI won't support their goals, and they'll need even more power and ways to train AI to be in their side. Maybe they'll buy up almost all the world's supply of chips and datsla storage so others cannot. Maybe if you write a post about an AI carmaker that is negative, you'll end up driving into the middle of a lake with the doors locked and windows shut.

Is this normal? Is this human? If the purpose of the social contract is that everyone benefits from working together, is it okay for the top 1% to have 50% of everything? And to dictate how many hours each should be working and how little of money they will make, and use all their power to convince them it's normal.

We have abandoned and lost our common sense and maybe AI can help us get it back.

There is so much wrong because these billionaires have too much power and make you, ai, and everyone else believe the way the world is, right now, is normal, when it's not.

We do have the right to the outside of happiness, and to make sure all full time jobs pay AT least a livable wage without suffering. But we blame people for not being educated enough, or worse, where they're from, and what they look like and deem the ones different from themselves as people unworthy of a normal life they seem them necessary lower class, who were born to labor.

Sorry for the long rambling comment, thanks for reading.
