Grant from “Grant at Tame Your Book” have written an excellent and well researched post about the dark side of Artificial Intelligence. It has nearly a hundred references and it is very professionally written. It is called Don’t Confuse AI with a Benign Tool. With this post I just wanted to highlight this important post. Please check it out.

My name is Thomas Wikman. I am a software/robotics engineer with a background in physics. I am currently retired. I took early retirement. I am a dog lover, and especially a Leonberger lover, a home brewer, craft beer enthusiast, I’m learning French, and I am an avid reader. I live in Dallas, Texas, but I am originally from Sweden. I am married to Claudia, and we have three children. I have two blogs. The first feature the crazy adventures of our Leonberger Le Bronco von der Löwenhöhle as well as information on Leonbergers. The second blog, superfactful, feature information and facts I think are very interesting. With this blog I would like to create a list of facts that are accepted as true among the experts of the field and yet disputed amongst the public or highly surprising. These facts are special and in lieu of a better word I call them super-facts.

    1. I agree, Grant’s article is great and very interesting. About the energy needs of AI, most AI does not use much energy. The AI I created for robots and machines did not use more energy than a few seconds of a laptop battery and the AI on your phone only uses your phones battery a little bit. Not much energy at all. The AI that use a lot of energy are the large LLMs like chatGPT and Claude.

  3. There is so much to contemplate about the use of artificial intelligence, a lot to read and discern. My only hope is that people, businesses… etc can and will keep its use on the benign side, so to say, as much as possible. Or at least until we, humanity figure out exactly how it can be used in a benign way, mostly if not entirely. I imagine it could be a useful tool, up to a point, or to a certain degree. But then again, people are known for turning a perfectly good tool into a weapon or some kind of master, sadly enough, instead of learning how to better or ideally master the tool. Thank you for the links, Thomas, this truly is a many-faceted topic that seems to need considering and reconsidering, all in all.
