Mark Zuckerberg, whose superyacht apparently spent the weekend ignoring or missing the distress signal<\/a> from a boat that ran out of fuel near Alaska, has posted a deranged, 6,500 word essay detailing his vision for AI superintelligence, a future that is \u201cfor everyone\u201d but which sounds less social than ever.<\/p>\n

Zuckerberg posts these types of essays every so often for purposes that serve his own company, and this one, called \u201cThe Future Is For Everyone<\/a>,\u201d is designed to defend against general backlash to AI but also to Meta\u2019s own practices. Zuckerberg lays out the potential use case for Meta glasses (whose huge marketing campaign<\/a> cannot get people to stop calling them \u201cpervert glasses<\/a>\u201d), AI agents, open weights AI development, and why data centers are not bad for communities, actually. Like most Silicon Valley \u201cutopian\u201d essays, to believe that any of this is going to go how Zuckerberg suggests it will requires one to have been recently concussed or to willfully ignore how this technology is being used today and believe that thousands of years of human nature will suddenly shift.\u00a0<\/p>\n

For example, Zuckerberg writes \u201cEveryone will have an exceptionally capable personal agent that understands you, your goals, and everything you care about. Your agent will work 24\/7 on your behalf to improve your relationships, health, career, finances, home management, hobbies, and more. It will free up time for the things you enjoy, and help you accomplish more than you could otherwise. It will have strong privacy and security options so you can trust it to handle all of your personal content knowing that no one else can access your information, similar to how encryption works on WhatsApp. You\u2019ll be able to interact with your agent through any device, including your glasses to keep you present in the moment with the people you care about.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Zuckerberg does not grapple with, or even gesture at, the idea that some people may not want to have an AI agent working on their \u201chobbies.\u201d He does not consider that, even if everyone were to have an AI agent, perhaps not everyone would use these AI agents for good. In the few months that AI agents have become popular among the early adopter set, we have seen \u201cbenevolent\u201d AI agents endlessly spam humans and the internet with drivel. And those are just the kind-of-annoying ones. We have seen AI agents hack companies<\/a>, and over the weekend an Australian man went viral because his AI agent that he asked to sign him up for gym classes did so by hacking the gym\u2019s reservation system<\/a> and canceling other people\u2019s reservations.\u00a0<\/p>\n
