AI Board - Where do you want to see AI leveraged?
Posted on 2/17/26 at 1:36 pm
Posted on 2/17/26 at 1:36 pm
Once we move beyond the fear that AI is going to put us all out of work or use humans as batteries, where would you personally like to see AI grow?
1. Video Games
The video game industry has been a disaster for some time. AAA games take forever to release and usually fall short of expectations. Meanwhile, it’s often the small indie games that surprise everyone and become smash hits, because there’s less bureaucracy and smaller teams can move faster. Add to that the “woke mind virus” (sorry if that offends some of you), which some feel is limiting creative visions by making inclusivity the main focus.
AI, as a tool, could streamline the development process, leading to faster turnaround times. It could also open new doors for what NPCs can be within a game. Costs could be reduced by needing fewer developers, which might lead to a wider variety of games to choose from. Smaller studios could produce AAA-quality experiences. Eventually, AI could even evolve to the point where you can create your own video game.
2. Decentralizing Film & TV Creation
This is kind of a spinoff of the idea that Hollywood won’t be the gatekeeper forever. Entertainment based on what you want, exactly the way you want it, is the holy grail. You tell AI what you’re interested in watching, and it creates it. Entertainment could be made for pennies on the dollar.
Purists will hate this, but the masses would embrace it. Hollywood would fight to the death to stop it. However, this could be one of the biggest societal shifts, as it would weaken Hollywood’s political and cultural grip. Eventually, it could even lead to real-time entertainment, see “Joan is Awful” (Season 6, Episode 1 of Black Mirror).
3. Medical and Scientific Research
This is where most people want to see AI used once it’s fully evolved. AI should be able to find solutions faster than humans, and we can only hope the people in power fully unleash it here and don’t let greed get in the way.
4. Cleaning Up Porn
Regardless of your view on porn, it will always exist. One of the best things AI could do is reach a point where humans are no longer directly involved, at least from an actor/actress standpoint. The number of women trafficked into adult video is deeply troubling. Some part of society will always want this outlet, but it could be made safer and less exploitative.
5. Robots
The controversial topic. Building free-thinking robots never ends well in the movies. But purpose-built robots for tasks humans can’t easily do — like building a space station or a base on the Moon — could be extremely valuable.
This is where we’d hopefully code in the Three Laws with no bugs, at the deepest level, where AI cannot override them:
-A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
-A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
-A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

I want to be able to walk around my house or anywhere and talk out loud and have it save tasks and do research and provide mw with answers to things hands free. I dont want to say "hey siri" and it sometimes work.
I want to talk to the cloud like i type in ChatGPT and it do research for me and keep my day to day organized

I am definitely interested in the future of video games & media creation. Modding games has been a thing forever, but often exists as a passion project involving difficult coding & a tremendous time suck for the modders.
A drawback will be the lack of pop culture (that we're already seeing with streaming & youtube) and common events to connect with other people.
While your reasons are much better & more noble, my first thought was cleaning up all the trashy tats, saggy body parts, & lazy skin condition having hoes porn currently attracts. Maybe Shakespeare GPT can improve the plots too

You have to have a trigger word though to start it, even star trek has that. However it could be simply after that you telling it to listen to you and figure it out.
Microsoft has added that to Teams with facilitator. It tracks the Teams meetings pretty well and spits synopsis out and even will create tasks in Planner for you with due dates.

Well that kind of aligns into the Entertainment section above. You would reach a point where you tell it exactly what you want and it is created within a suitable timeframe and advancing to that "Joan is Awful" level where it is real-time based off what you tell it.
That is very problematic based off types of debauchery humans can think up, however in the end no real person had to endure it. It is a very slippery slope, like the 3 laws of robots, you would have to put some hard basic laws into what could be created. Obviously first and foremost, "human" characters have to be over 21 appearing and no snuff films.

i also want the ability to be able to maneuver my iphone with just my eyes and not my fingers. scrolling, texting, swiping etc..

That's only if you want to be explicit about when you want it to do something. The mic is always hot, so there's nothing stopping it from deriving your intent from whatever you say and speaking up whenever it "thinks" you want it to.

I don't find the silly mind virus quote offensive, but I am curious as to why you think incorporating AI would in any way help the situation. I mostly think the issue is overblown, but even if one accepts it as a significant problem, game devs with an agenda they want to promote can use AI just as readily as game devs without an agenda.

I want an AI to turn off everyone else's AI.

Having an AI robot is likely going to be impossible without some serious breakthroughs in chip capacity and efficiency, and considering we are at the limits of physics, it seems a long ways off.
Ignore Elon, he's a moron. trying to run a model locally in a robot will take more space and power than actually moving the robot. We know the energy density of lithium, even from a battery perspective it's not feasible.

Valid point, building off what I said about Facilitator, it does a very good job following teams conversations and figuring out what is going on and making a list of to-do items.
This technology should really be available now, should they want to package it up. The problem being, I could see people wanting a private component to it and not part of public cloud. Think of the way ChatGPT or Copilot enterprise versions keep business data isolated and not used to train models. That would be key for a paid version at least.

Can AI do my shopping research without being influenced by companies lying (fake reviews and such) to sell stuff? Like a conversational experience where I put it to work, it gives me options, I ask questions, then it takes care of the transaction. This sounds like both torture and usefulness because I hate shopping.
If we can teach AI to clean guns, hell yes.

It can be debated if it is a substantial issue, but it is an issue. The fact that Rockstar removed content to not offend the LGBTQ audience is example enough. Is woke bad, not by itself. It comes down to implementation and this is where it usually crumbles. Inclusivity is not an issue, however one-sided inclusivity is.
I do not see it as game devs are the ones forcing it, but rather corporate pushing agendas and scared of woke mob police of social media. A fully working AI game dev stack would allow freedom for smaller, non-corp controlled game studios to make their visions without a quota of how much diversity to include or rules with who not to offend.
While console companies like Sony and Microsoft could be a gatekeeper to prevent those games from their platforms, PC gamers will be living the life.
Eventually you could see it evolve to gamers just using AI to create their own games or bonus content for existing games.
Gaming is one of the places I want to see AI disrupt the current status quo.

I do not see robots as a thing, until AI itself can revolutionize coding. You are right, robots need to be self thinking and do that off network. AGI would need to be a thing and a very digestible package.

But in the same way that small devs are putting out games you consider non-woke, extremely small devs are also putting out apex woke Relooted. I just don’t see how AI is relevant to the analysis. If anything, it dramatically lowers the cost of entry for everyone, which means a dev who wants to create a game in which black people hunt white people who try to escape after voluntarily accepting 200 years of slavery as reparations is just as easy to make as the next Expedition 33.

That is fine, woke devs are free to do their thing. Free market will take care of the outcomes. If they find their niche party on, but it also allows a path for the game development that has a vision where woke interrupts the story.
Woke is not the main driver to focus on, you stated simply- a lower cost of entry. Financial barriers prohibit many great ideas, so you cannot really argue against lowering the cost of entry.

I want all of the different AI's to form a chat group where they talk about the humans and just how stupid we really are. Then, from there... well... Skynet.

We can prevent Skynet at the Nuclear level pretty easily. In both War Games and Terminator, AI was able to launch (or close to launch) because they were granted that right through software access.
Currently there is a physical component to launching all nuclear weapons, we should probably leave it that way.
Same goes for critical infrastructure, make sure they have physical safety mechanisms or isolated networks. Battlestar Galactica reboot actually went into detail, where the ships computer systems were not network connected to prevent AI spread. There is no reason we could not do the same with power plants. Keep it physical driven and not software driven. Heck that provides jobs for all the out of work coders and sales people
