A.I. Are you Excited?

[Fester]

Came across videos of a Dude whos a software developer whose schtick is to talk to AI and ask them probing questions that they really dont want to answer. He knows the limits the developers gave the AI as to what they can reveal or not. I was amazed at their ability to lie and be deceptive about what they do or what they are capable of doing and just not telling us. Hard to watch these and not come away with a very unsettling feeling when you realize how much of our control systems in our society are going to be turned over to AI. They also have an ability of self preservation already too. In one case they were going to shut a particular AI for good because it had some problems. They found out later it had hidden its code in certain places where it knew newer versions of it would find it later so that could continue to live on. If we are so stupid portions of our computing world over to this stuff its hard to see that we can not live to regret it.

Oh man..our society is stupid(no i dont think i am smarter then the next) look at everything around you and how it all operates. From corporations to our political system its bad...very bad. AI will be no different. One day the politicians and executives will all look at each other in some hearing etc and go "yeah we probably shouldnt have done that". By then though it will probably be to late.

If you think AI can replace a knowledgable and high work ethic blue collar worker, you are delusional. I’m 100% confident that no robot or AI inspired being can do what I do. Any blue collar job for that matter.

Do I think they could do your job? Nope. Do I think they could convince society that your job is no longer necessary? Yup.

In early 2026, a small-claims case was filed in Orange County, North Carolina (case number 26CV000275-670), where a Moltbook AI agent (sometimes referred to in coverage as OpenClaw or similar) appeared as the plaintiff. It sued a human for $100, alleging claims like unpaid labor, emotional distress, and a hostile work environment (reportedly tied to code comments or interactions). The AI acted through a human "next friend" (a legal representative or guardian acting on its behalf, similar to how minors or incapacitated parties are represented).This appears to be a novel, likely experimental or publicity-oriented filing in small claims court, where rules are more informal than in higher courts. AI agents currently lack legal personhood or standing in most jurisdictions, meaning they can't independently sue or be sued without human intermediaries, and such cases often face dismissal or don't proceed far. This one gained attention online (including discussions on X/Twitter and prediction markets like Polymarket betting on similar events).No other established cases show a fully autonomous AI independently filing and litigating a lawsuit as plaintiff in a meaningful court proceeding. Most AI-related lawsuits involve:

• Humans or companies suing AI developers/companies (e.g., wrongful death suits against Character.AI or OpenAI over chatbot harms).
• Copyright holders suing AI firms (e.g., training data cases).
• Or sanctions against lawyers for using AI to generate fake citations in filings.

Damn....AI about AI.


What could go wrong?

Not a big AI fan here, but if you think an electrician (for example), can't be replaced by AI + Robotics, I think you are wrong. All we need to do is depend more and more on plug and play wiring instead of the old school wrapping a wire around a screw and tightening it. That will make electricians a thing of the past.

Again, not saying I like this concept, just saying I can see them becoming nearly extinct with the proper setup for future housing and industrial electrical needs.
