A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

AI won't destroy humanity, if anything does, humans will destroy humanity. AI is a tool like any program, if we prematurely give it the power to cause a lot of damage, it's not the AI fault it's the human who didn't sufficiently test before pushing to production.
This, 100%. I fear malevolent humans welding AI much more than it going rogue on its own.
