As technology continues to advance, we are rapidly approaching a future where Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and AI glasses will become commonplace. While these advancements have the potential to revolutionize the way we live and work, they also pose a significant threat to our privacy. With the widespread use of AI glasses, everything we see and hear can be recorded and analyzed by powerful AI algorithms. Even seemingly insignificant details can be used to extrapolate a wealth of information about us, from our daily routines to our deepest desires. As AGI becomes more intelligent, Meta and other companies that control these technologies will have unprecedented access to our personal information. They will be able to track our every move, monitor our conversations, and even predict our behavior with alarming accuracy.
I'm not convinced we have even begun to scratch the surface in developing AGI. I'm also not convinced it is even possible using conventional computer hardware.
i can't tell if you're trolling... in most countries we don't have privacy, everything is attached to the cloud and data mined already - unless it's offline with no input/output that could touch the internet, there is no privacy
It's a bit of a shortcut, it's still up to the services one chose to use. Typically if one does pay for services and it's GDPR compliant there is a non-zero probability they might not sell your data. So the vast majority for people who do not know or prefer not to care, yes, but everything is misleading IMHO. Better avoid fueling self helplessness. It's not because it's not the de facto standard that it's impossible.
yeah totally, definitely not trying to say it's a hopeless situation. there are many helpful tools to help with having some. i just have been following and involved with data collection and it's a bit of a mess - the idea that anything can happen without at least the 13 eyes knowing seems almost impossible
Well, as somebody working on this I can tell you it's up to you what you decide to use. Of course you can rely on Meta or Google but there are alternatives like Monocle or Lynx XR with software (not AGI... not even going to address that, assuming it's a joke) that is also open-source and self-hostable e.g GraphHopper for directions, Mistral or LLaMA for LLMs and countless others.
So... can you use self hosted AI with open-source hardware today? Yes.
Will most people decide to do so? Sadly not.
Are we trapped? Absolutely not, in fact I suggest you help on either or both side, open-hardware, open-source software and open models.
Please don't fuel fears.
