Artificial Intelligence promises to eliminate human limitations and offers personal optimization assistants to replace the pain of thinking. But at what cost? Are we sacrificing our humanity for the sake of convenience and efficiency? π§΅π
For Issue 2 of @muftahmag, @OJutel argues that this techno-accelerationist drive fosters fantasies of immortality and a universal computation that leads to a hollowing out of public ethics and a transformation in human thought.
This techno-fetishism is deeply intertwined with capitalist ideologies; it presents AI as a new frontier that reimagines language and creativity through a computational lens. It reduces human creativity to mere data processing.
What happens to our thoughts and creations when they are seen as mere computations? Are we becoming cogs in a machine of our own making? Are we worshipping false gods in the form of algorithms and data?
