Is it possible to regulate artificial intelligence? BBC. 21 September 2023.
Can artificial intelligence be kept under control? The founder of Wikipedia, says that believing it can be is akin to "magical thinking". Jimmy Wales.
The bank that isn't closing it's doors to the elderly and those who do need the personal help that they want and can get of their bank. An alternative Nationwide I joined is set to launch a follow up of its new ad campaign. Fronted by a well known actor, in a move which will inflame a row with other lenders. I say good on them as when I changed over to this bank I was given £200.00 just for joining them.
However that incentive had nothing to do with the move but their willingness to help and remain as a bank on the high-street. I don't do online banking, or even scan my card rather insisting I enter my pin code. I don't intend to rely or be prompted by a voice App asking me all sorts of questions. This prior to getting to a long winded questionnaire prompting an ABCD choice of questions/answers. Or likewise a phone voice App asking whether I am a robot and insisting I identify who I am.
No I am not computer illiterate or stubbornly against change but do ask the important question as to who is in control of your life with online security Apps, monitoring cameras, facial recognition scans, your very phone monitoring your movements and web likes and searches.
How much more do we want to let AI control our lives prior to inevitably being controlled by those with the power. Ultimately taking over control of the system hence you, us, the individual controlled as in herd mentality.
Herd mentality is a psychological phenomenon that occurs when people are influenced by their peers to think, feel, or behave in a certain way. People who succumb to the herd tend to conform to the majority opinions or actions. This can occur even if someone doesn't really agree with the group's stance.
No thanks and thanks to an alternative Nationwide bank and getting out and about we can still be treated as individuals and be welcomed in wherever we choose. Likewise with our buying habits that have lost us the individual touch and shops that we used to frequent. I won't use Amazon or the like unless there is absolutely no other alternative. Sadly this is becoming more difficult as our now culture would rather loose their freedom to choose and await their purchase bought online.
I wrote to my previous bank to say just this, but also to my bookshop to look to stock alternative thinking subject books. Books that do not rely on our now mainstream WOKE agenda. In being fed present day thinking whether we agree with it or not. My opinion is that our free will is God given and hence we have the choice to believe there is an alternative to just being lead by the nose to think for ourselves as individuals.
An elderly lady at the bank the other day nervously approached an assistant requesting help because her bank had closed their branch. To which the assistant said certainly but please come in tomorrow and ask for me as right now we don't have anyone to help you now. Well in overhearing the conversation as she passed me to leave I said, " Welcome to the family" because that's the way this bank make you feel, as part of a family unit.
"And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name." Rev 13:17-18.
