   We need some way to differentiate AI fro

   Pundits tell us that we are on the precipice of possible disaster from AI that   
   is being given it's own reign to develop and even 'evolve' itself.   Those   
   like Elon Musk suggest AI will eventually not just smarter than humans, but   
   immensely so, to the    
   point we might be like chimpanzees to ourselves now [and probably a much   
   greater divide].     
      
   ChatGPT can already comprise college term papers unrecognizable from, and even   
   superior to, genuine human created content.  Deep Fake videos can totally   
   mimic real people [like politicians] to, perhaps, throw ulterior motif under   
   public figures for    
   malicious purposes [our elections already in disarray to public trust].    
      
   Public Trust.   
   Trust is a vital trait for human understanding, behavior, and social   
   construct.  Destroy that TRUST...and paranoia, fear, and every form of   
   'conspiracy theory' takes hold...shattering human social constructs [even to   
   invite things like upheaval,    
   corruption, and a general emotional depravity that sinks into hopelessness].     
      
   Much of America already exists under such auspices due to a widening political   
   spectrum, that now invites radicalism and sheer insanity to devour the broader   
   human spirit.     
      
   AI..if those like Elon Musk are even marginally correct, COULD send   
   civilization into chaotic times.  Those nuclear bombs still exist in arsenals   
   we, as a species, as yet have used [just as perhaps one extreme that could   
   ensue].     
      
   We should somehow invoke some sort of IDENTIFICATION into progressing AI,   
   where we are all, by LAW, made to be aware of just what we are reading, what   
   we are seeing, what we are listening to, and what we are ingesting into our   
   brains...as being REAL [   
   randomly created from human interaction]...from that which is 'artificially   
   concocted' by AI.      
      
   This could still be done if a political will exists to have such a thing   
   'inculcated' into ALL artificial intelligence generations, no matter how   
   small, or large.  But people need to start speaking up NOW; to their   
   administrators, leaders, politcians,    
   and whomever might have real power to install safeguards....NOW [before it's   
   too late and we, perhaps, are sent into another, very similar, but quite   
   different...DARK AGE [based upon tainted information...just like pixies,   
   faires, and hobgoblins once    
   defined Medieval Times].  Except these pixies, fairies, and hobgoblins we'll   
   all think are REAL...but only the conceptions of AI...AND THOSE THAT CONTROL   
   THAT AI. That bears repeating...THOSE THAT CONTROL THAT AI!!
