The Power of Division
Humanity is still more powerful than artificial intelligence, but our division is a significant problem. This division results in algorithms exploiting our weaknesses, leading to a dangerous scenario where people perceive those with differing opinions as enemies. This mindset threatens democracy, as belief systems can turn elections into wars for survival rather than democratic processes. Ultimately, it is not AI that will destroy us but our own delusions and failure to unite.
