Star Trek predicted AI and we didn't even notice, when I say we i mean the public, obviously stackers saw it a mile off right? Right?!

Remember on the show, they had a system 'Computer' they tapped their lapel and asked it anything

We all watched that as kids and wondered when it would become a reality

Get the tinfoil out, was it all a blueprint!?Get the tinfoil out, was it all a blueprint!?

Everytime we ask chatgpt to word an email to our fiat mine leader, Gene Rodenberry is smiling and saying 'make it so'

Star Trek didn’t predict AI, it made it feel normal to generations of kids to imagine talking to a computer and getting an answer back

On a slightly different tangent, I remember back in the 80s there was a TV show about futuristic stuff and there was a wife in the kitchen washing up...correct lol and the husband driving home from work, and they were having a live video to video chat

I was like, this is bullshit! There's no way this can work, total Hollywood nonsense, I was adamant this could never be a reality

Then frickin facetime, whatsapp, skype

And that's 40 years of the information age, which arguably was at the foot of the curve, we went from phoneboxes to ai, where will 2080 be!!

I could literally go all philosophical here but I'll refrain lol 😆I could literally go all philosophical here but I'll refrain lol 😆

For those at the back, you know who you are, yes we know you don't use AI, this was more a generic post about the wider public, go back to your ip address hidden fortress/anti government lair and sleep safe knowing Anthropic hasn't decoded your entire life from your keylogger prompts
