Three Mile Island's Revolutionary Restart in 2028

[zzyzzx]

The world will be a vastly different place in 10 years due to AI. Mark my words.

[*]DIY movies with quality similar to or better that $100MM Hollywood productions.

Already there.

AI is just a tool like a laptop, it will evolve and becomes more efficient over time, like internet and cell phones.

I don't get all the hate. It is like people from 1910 saying electricity is a waste of resource when you can run all the machinary next to the Niagara Fall for free. There are a lot of efficiency improvement at traditional industries using smaller scale in house AI already, not all are used to create stupid videos for internet to laugh at.

I wonder where in Pennsylvania this might be?

• Beginning of UBI (universal basic income) due to massive unemployment.
  • Possible caste system for those who can't compete and the "smart ones".
  • Robots will be more common place and can do menial jobs such as janitorial and farm work.
• Many people will not drive anymore because:
  • Unemployment
  • Addictive entertainment options keeping people at home.
    • AI / computer / brain interface will make Tik Tok look like childsplay (I know people working on an EEG version of this, basically wireless neuralink).
    • DIY movies with quality similar to or better that $100MM Hollywood productions.
  • Basically dopamine overflow, society will be addicted and less productive. As long as they are fed, they will not care.
• Medicines that will provide possibly everlasting life to those that can afford it.
• Possible upheaval in stock market due to contraction in auto, airline, and other last century buying trends that the current generation does not care for.
• Local and Geopolitical issues.
  • AI control political decisions, I.E. Palantir
  • Proliferation of new weapons / super viruses by nefarious actors. Literally some guy in a home lab will be able to DIY something awful.
  • AI Facial recognition will reduce crime and to some this may seem like a police state and to others as safety.
    • Chicago is supposedly already dispatching drones to crime scenes to verify and assess the threat before police cruisers arrive.

This is just my prediction based on some surface level knowledge listening to the tech prophets of our time. Many predict AI will allow our society to be more creative and entertainment based. Who knows, all I can say is the way of life is going to be massively different IMHO.

"Luddites Smashing Textile Machines" Those AI data centers better be well protected lol.

Yuck. That sounds like purgatory. I want a cabin inbthe woods with a fireplace and a dog where I can spend time hunting.

Yep, TMI coming back, and Palisades is coming back even sooner. It's nice to see. Would be great if some of the other plants that were shutdown could be restarted as well, none of them were near their end of life, it was all financial.

There's NH Yankee. Useful idiots demanded it be closed by referendum vote out of fear and voluntary ignorance.
I told everyone I could their power bills would go up. Ccp funded anti nukes told everyone wind and solar would make their electricity cheaper.
No surprise, I was right.
Since NH Yankee closed, power bills have doubled.
I love it when voting has irreversible consequences.

Just in case anyone missed it the first time around.

AI and crypto is going to make nuke power a necessity. Bill Gates knows this https://www.sciencefriday.com/segments/microsoft-open-three-mile-island/

Yankee was in VT. We have Seabrook here in NH, which strangely is owned by NextEra, based in FL. If it was owned by our regional electric company, I can imagine our electric bills would be higher.
