Vernon Webb (@vernonwebb) I had a conversation with one of the AI BOTs last night and truly see the benefit of such things. I mean I didn't say much to it as I'm afraid of what it will know about me if I talk to it too much. For instance I asked it, could you help me write a song and it's response was an enthusiastic “yes Vernon” with many questions as to what I'm working with, did I have lyrics, chord structures, a melody and so forth which I found quite astounding. Now I can see where this could be a lot of fun and very beneficial in learning, creating and so forth but I also see where it could basically write a song for you and you then go and say, “look I wrote this song” which, IMHO who cares if you did. Now I know a lot of people might be thinking about money at this point which, once again, lends to doing away with money to which many people then role their eyes, but hear me out. What could be incorporated into AI is a way to teach people to write songs, to help them polish their songs and make better songs and like everyone my concern is will if I were to put my own lyrics, my own chords in there, then what? Does the algorithm now own my song? Is the song still mine, could my song be used by other people now and it’s all because well we can’t trust the people that created the AI and why? Money! Just think what we could do if we just did things for the sake of furthering mankind instead of trying to make a buck. I know I’m using a song as an example but let’s say I wanted to find a way to end the gap the rich and the poor and I wanted the AI to come up with ways to do this. Do you honestly think that Elon Musk, owner of Grok, would allow that? Until each of us actually realizes that we are the ones that allow this to continue it’s never going to stop. I’m tried of the nay-sayers all chiming in and saying it would never work we can never be that as they are as responsible for us being where we are. If every single one of us decided that they simply refuse to be part of the problem any more it’s never going to change! If every single one of us (or at least the ones of us that would like to see a world that is about peace and making things work for all) decided to not go to work one day until our government (all of the world governments) started looking out for the benefit of all, and I mean ALL not just ones that some scumbag felt was worthy (i.e. the Epstein class), we could change this shit. The world is in turmoil right now and it’s not because people don’t want peace (why a Department of War and not a Department of Peace) it’s that certain people want more! Let’s face it, for some people there is never enough. Until we make every one deserving of even the bare fucking necessities or life, until we make everyone a priority, NOT JUST THE RICH which is exactly what it is right now, we will never know peace. We could change this shit right now! All everyone actually thinks of is money! Don’t believe me? What are you doing right now? Are you working your 9-5 (if you are lucky) to put food on the table? Are you retired living on a fixed income which you are now trying to figure out how to balance because some rich scumbag decided he was going to tax us (tariffs and more)? This all we’ve been allowed to care about. And mind you this is not about money, not really, it’s about power and control. We truly need to wake up and smell the roses. We could have peace on Earth, right now, we could take care of everyone right now, if only we choose to. https://substack.com/profile/98050906-vernon-webb/note/c-240674117?utm_source=substack&utm_content=first-note-modal
