American Family News: Warning - 'Bad actors' capable of using AI to ensnare the gullible
Physicists and tech giants are warning about the potential dangers of artificial intelligence (AI). But does the American public understand the implications?

Fox Business reported on Monday that Geoffrey Hinton, a Google engineer who is recognized the "godfather of AI," has quit his job, offering this warning: "It is hard to see how you can prevent the bad actors from using it for bad things."

American Family News spoke to Patrick Riley, the CEO of many financial technology startups and a retired Army staff sergeant. Like Hinton, Riley is gravely concerned about the future of artificial intelligence technology – a concern based largely on what those bad actors could do with it. "While it's easy to imagine the many potential benefits of the emerging AI trend," Riley says, "there's a reason Elon Musk and thousands of others called for a full stop on AI development."

In 2014, long before Musk and others expressed their thoughts, British theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking issued this warning: "The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race."

Yep... AI can be quite scary sometimes. Use it wisely.
 
People can't be really taking the Terminator concept seriously can they?

Who needs AI to "ensnare" anybody?

For current evidence all you need to do see see the commercial for FBAwinnersofficial (.com) or the "tactical X ab shocker homo-erotic special" ad that is running in rotation on several sites.

Straight up scams both. But they are evidently making enough money to pay for national level ad campaigns to make more.

and, other than the photoshop on the abs ad, and the 'touching up' on the FBA girl, neither had a lot of artificial input.
