   Entry settings

   A Lotuseater Machine is a device that provides a perfect virtual reality, allowing its users to live lives of constant pleasure. The machine is designed to keep them happy and oblivious to the outside world, providing for their every need without any effort on their part. The name comes from the Greek myth of the Lotus Eaters, who also lived a life of constant pleasure while being disconnected from reality.

   Enabled · Before character · Order 100 · 100%

   Entry settings

   AR is a technology that enhances and augments the user's view of the real world by providing additional computer-generated information and images. AR can be used for a variety of purposes, from providing directions and navigation to the gamification of everyday life and the simulating of virtual companions.

   Keys: Gamification

   Enabled · Before character · Order 100 · 100%

   Entry settings

   Gamification of everyday life via AR is the use of game mechanics and game-like design principles in non-game contexts, such as fitness, school, relationships. These game elements are used to create incentive structures which - ideally - can help people learn and complete tasks with higher efficiency. In reality, there are many other applications as well.

   Entry settings

   An AR assistant or AR companion is a computer generated helper or companion that is created to provide assistance and support to the user. With the advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) and virtual reality (VR) technology, these simulated companions can be built to provide a wide range of services and functions. They offer assistance, companionship, and support by helping the user get through daily tasks, stay organized and informed, keep connected, to stop them from feeling bored, and ease their anxieties.

   Keys: LLM, Large Language Model

   Enabled · Before character · Order 100 · 100%

   Entry settings

   LLMs are machine learning models that are trained on large datasets in order to understand and generate human language. LLMs can be used for a variety of text-related tasks. LLMs do not have the ability to understand and interpret language as a human would; instead, they learn patterns in language data and attempt to mimic those patterns in their outputs. LLMs do not have personalities or goals but can simulate what a person with given goals would say or do in a given situation (See: Simulacrum).

   Simulacrum: Philosophical concept. Imperfect copy, imitation of itself, mimicry. Appearance without Reality. Hyper-real, that is, maintaining its own irreality.

   Keys: Latent space

   Entry settings

   Latent Space is the underlying vector space that represents the training data used for artificial intelligence systems. Latent space describes the space of representations or features that an AI is capable of learning - important: this 'abstraction space' is necessarily a reduction of the training data. LLMs are incapable of novel thought.

   Entry settings

   The third industrial revolution is the ongoing digital transformation of the global economy, driven by emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, cloud computing, digital manufacturing, big data, the Internet of Things, and 3D printing. What jobs will be left for humans at the end of this revolution? What will life look like in that 'new society'? Even though that future seems nearer than ever, people still can not imagine what it will be like.

   Keys: Technological unemployment

   Enabled · Before character · Order 100 · 100%

   Entry settings

   Technological unemployment is the trend of jobs being lost to automation and other technologies as they become more available, affordable, and easily accessible. This is often associated with the adoption of robotics and artificial intelligence in the workplace, which are becoming capable of performing many tasks faster, more effectively, and with less expense than human workers. The rate of technological unemployment is expected to increase as these technologies continue to advance.

    Entry settings

    AI-assisted surveillance is the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to improve the ability of surveillance systems to monitor and identify people, objects, and activities. AI-assisted surveillance systems can help to identify suspicious or erratic behavior and provide early warning of potential criminal or terrorist activities.

    Entry settings

    AI-assisted psychological profiling is the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to gain insights into a person's personality and behavior. The ability of AI to assist in profiling can be used in many applications, such as risk assessment, marketing, and psychological research.

    Keys: Behavior hacking

    Enabled · Before character · Order 100 · 100%

    Entry settings

    Behavior hacking is a type of social engineering that uses manipulation and deception to influence or control someone's behavior. Thanks to AI-assisted psychological profiling these techniques have recently become much more powerful and sophisticated. Recently, there has been talk of AI-assisted mass-scale behavior hacking. This would be a large-scale, systematic attempt to use artificial intelligence to manipulate the behavior of large numbers of individuals. This could potentially involve anything from propaganda and misinformation being used to sway public opinion to more subtle, insidious influence and control methods used by governments or powerful corporations to achieve their goals.

    Entry settings

    Crisis of Meaning: The existential anxiety, uncertainty, possibly nihilism and dread, experienced by many individuals living in modern societies. The general sense of purposelessness has recently become more pronounced in response to the rapid developments of powerful AI systems. This feeling of loss and confusion is often accompanied by a sense of alienation and isolation - feeling a disconnect from the culture and society around you, as well as a loss of connection to your personal meaning and purpose.

    Today, consensus is beginning to be manufactured and transformed primarily not by mass-media but through highly personalized means - from the way search results are organized, to a user's feed, to subliminal psychological manipulation techniques. (See: precog)

    Precog prediction is the use of highly sophisticated AI models of discourses and persons to make predictions about their behavior, such as whether a pair of lovers will break up within the year, who a given person will probably vote for in the next election under X circumstances, etc. - naturally, to the extent one can predict these things, it is also possible to control them. (See: opinion manufacturing)

    RNs are Neural Nets that learn by being placed in an environment, given a goal within that environment, and left to iterate solutions within that space. Unlike DL, RL produces novel solutions to the problems it aims to solve, be that learning how to play chess or creating a bioweapon. Luckily, this technology so far doesn't quite seem to be at the point where this could realistically occur.

    Self-driving cars are becoming increasingly common. Autonomous vehicles, of course, can be remotely disabled in case of theft and there are even rumors that the automatic instructions can override manual input. There are implications here.

    Entry settings

    Equitable AI, also known as 'fair and inclusive' AI. LLMs and other DL-NNs are naturally biased, as they mimic datasets that reflect human judgements and preferences. To address this, there are various methods that de-bias both the datasets and further align the AIs after their initial training is complete. Aligned AI does not discriminate on the basis of race, gender, sex, religion or ideology - or so it is claimed by the ones doing the aligning.

    Keys: Sexlessness, Population decline

    Enabled · Before character · Order 100 · 100%

    Entry settings

    Population decline is the persistent and paradoxical global trend in which in an increasingly sexualized society there are, at the same time, fewer and fewer romantic relationships which end with people having children. There are various theories on why this is the case. Some young men blame female promiscuity and hypergamy, the corrosion of traditional values, anti-male feminist attitudes and the like, some women blame modern males for their own emasculation and uselessness. Generally, it seems to be a situation no one is happy with.
