Elon Musk’s Girlfriend Grimes Argues That Embracing AI Could Lead by nurudeen181(m): 3:41pm On Jun 03, 2021 |
Canadian singer Grimes has come under considerable
suspicion after billing artificial intelligence as a means to
usher in communism, with many pointing to her
relationship with billionaire tech mogul Elon Musk as a
red flag.
The popular musical artist, whose real name is Claire
Boucher, made the provocative remarks in a TikTok video
in which she said that communists should be more open
to computer-powered automation and decision-making.
According to Grimes, “correctly” implementing AI into all
aspects of life would be the “fastest path to
communism”, creating “abundance” for all.
“Like, we could totally get to a situation where nobody has
to work, everybody is provided for with a comparable state
of being, comfortable living,” she argued.
Artificial intelligence could automate work such as
farming and eliminate corruption, “thereby bringing us as
close as possible to genuine equality,” Grimes theorized.
"So basically, everything everybody loves about
communism but without the collective farm. Because, let’s
be real, enforced farming is really not a vibe.”
Grimes has exhibited a rather intense affinity for artificial
intelligence. Her relationship with Musk, the billionaire
CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, was reportedly sparked by an
AI-related joke between the pair.
AI was even incorporated into the name of the couple’s
son. X Æ A-Xii (pronounced ‘Ex Ash A Twelve’), who was
born last year, includes the “elven spelling” for artificial
intelligence, Grimes explained at the time.
Musk is also no stranger to AI. He is currently developing
a technology, Neuralink, that aims to achieve symbiosis
between the human brain and artificial intelligence.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, many expressed skepticism after
hearing Grimes’ modest communist proposal. Numerous
online commenters took issue with the fact the singer
was making the case for AI-powered communism while in
a relationship with one of the world’s richest men, who
also just happens to be at the forefront of AI
development.
Others warned that the rise of automation will have the
opposite effect, leaving those who can’t find work at the
mercy of unscrupulous governments.
There is already an abundance of wealth and resources in
the world, but properly distributing it all is not a task for
artificial intelligence, argued another reply.
Not everyone thought Grimes was being fanciful, however.
Automation would “definitely help lessen the agrarian pain
of a communist conversion,” wrote one observer.
Conservative commentator Ian Miles Cheong conceded
that AI would be necessary to make the “stupid” idea of
communism work, because “people are corruptible” and
would be incapable of implementing such a system
without automation. |
