(Daily Caller)—Microsoft founder Bill Gates discussed how he envisions artificial intelligence (AI) can help save “democracy” through addressing “polarization” in a podcast discussion with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman posted on Thursday.
Gates also expressed his vision of how AI could lead to increased world peace and social cohesion in an ideal world in the episode of “Unconfuse Me with Bill Gates” posted to GatesNotes, the billionaire’s blog website. Microsoft is a huge backer of OpenAI, which makes ChatGPT; both companies, along with their main figureheads, have been involved in AI regulatory talks with the White House, senators and world leaders.

“I do think AI, in the best case, can help us with some hard problems … Including polarization because potentially that breaks democracy and that would be a super-bad thing,” Gates stated.

Gates and Altman also discussed the potential for AI to establish world peace during the podcast.
“Whether AI can help us go to war less, be less polarized; you’d think as you drive intelligence, and not being polarized kind of is common sense, and not having war is common sense, but I do think a lot of people would be skeptical,” Gates stated. “I’d love to have people working on the hardest human problems, like whether we get along with each other. I think that would be extremely positive, if we thought the AI could contribute to humans getting along with each other.”
“I believe that it will surprise us on the upside there,” Altman responded. “The technology will surprise us with how much it can do. We’ve got to find out and see, but I’m very optimistic. I agree with you, what a contribution that would be.”
Gates Notes and OpenAI did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

Enter the A.I. narrative. You can read some mention of A.I. just about anywhere now, and on quite a diversity of subjects. But I see the elites’ smokescreen a mile away. Let’s simplify it all.
Your home computer, no matter how advanced it is, is in fact a pocket calculator on steroids. A.I. is only a computer program, and as such it is 100% under the control of the programmer. Thus the programmer always make the program do whatever he wants, or give the result he wants.
Knowing this, if a programmer makes a program to count votes, and if the programmer is biased toward one particular candidate, and if the programmer has low ethics. It’s quite easy for the programmer to make that vote counting program cheat the counting process and release logical and good looking results all at the sametime.
If you don’t believe me, ask yourself how is it that a computer chess game can offer you to play against the computer A.I. with 4 choices beginner, intermediate, expert, or genius.
At this point we know A.I. (Artificial Intelligence) is only A, and not I, because the I is the programmers own intelligence, personal tastes and biases.
I can only see the term ‘A.I.’ as they call it, become more and more in use just to get people used to it. After a while, A.I. can become a scapegoat for bad events and tragedies. All that because the programmer is bought and paid for by the elites who want to protect ‘their democracy’, not yours.
