I believe we are on the verge of an extremely dangerous totalitarian big-tech oligarchy.

By the end of this year, AI advancements are projected to be so good they will replace mid-level software engineers. Whatever can be automated will be automated.

Here are some concerns:

1. Societal value as an individual for most will likely level out or decrease, and opportunities to gain higher or unique statusus among peers will fade.
2. Many who thrive on possessing a distinguishable hard skillset will be impacted
3. Societal value as an individual will grow based upon soft skills, socioemotional skills, and roles that rely on such. Those with deficits in these may struggle to find their niche and footing among those who possess these traits.
4. Human resources may still be needed, but may be more valued collectively than individually
5. The gap will widen between the elite and everyone else, paving the way towards oligarchy
6. Negotiating power as an individual will decrease, and individual employees will be much more disposable.

AI entrepreneurs have spoken about universal income, but these are handouts that we will be reliant on, thus giving more power to the hands that feed us. Imagine if we strayed from their rules? Could this income be reduced or eliminated? Is there a likelihood we will have some social credit system?

If you thought this was bad, it gets nightmarishly WORSE! We also have nanotechnology advancements. Coupled with AI, this becomes much more dangerous. Imagine AI controlled nanobots being released into our water supply and we consume them. Could this open doors for technological terrorism? If we were to displease our rulers, could they decide to end our lives with a click of a button?

I am wondering if, as a father, would you try to teach your son some "game" or unique techniques for approaching and flirting with women, in order to help him stand out from the typical awkward or cringeworthy ways a lot of guys try to hit on girls these days.

Would you teach your son how to approach women in a way that stands out from the rest of the guys who are usually one in the way in the typical way in how they would approach women, but you’d teach your son in how to be unique and have game in being clever with them and having confidence?
