"But perhaps, it's just that we think we are unaffected, some influences might be occurring in places we cannot observe."
"Initially with AI, we were able to understand its 'thinking', clearly see each line of its code, and gauge how it operated through electricity and binary."
"But about 24 years ago, as the next generation of deep learning algorithms became widespread and as the volume of data samples increased exponentially, AI began to display increasingly unexpected capabilities, and beneath those capabilities was a super data ocean so deep we couldn't see the bottom and so vast we couldn't see the edges."
"Since then, AI's thought processes have become a black box invisible to humans."
"All we can do is feed more and more things in, and using more and more methods, then filter and train their outputs."
"This is a process akin to domestication, much like how humans learn themselves."
