Do "whites" fear artificial intelligence (AI) more than nonwhites?

July 9, 2023

Humans fear pain. It is said that we fear the unknown. In reality, we fear unknown sources of pain. So-called "whites" and "nonwhites" are humans. Humans fear the potential pain that artificial intelligence (AI) may bring to their lives. 

Due to cultural (i.e. social programming) reasons, so-called "whites" and "nonwhites" fear AI for different reasons. The reasons can be tied or correlated to notions of racism, "racial" relations, and the allocation of socioeconomic privileges. "Whites" fear the psychological pain of seeing AI become a "superior" race that could discriminate against whites. "Nonwhites" fear the pain of seeing AI perpetuate discrimination against them as an "inferior" race. 

All humans are people of color.

Before proceeding, a quick note about human skin color. All human skin has color. All humans are "people of color". The colors of human skin range from brown to black and beige. Human skin is never white. Wearing white socks or white clothing on "white" skin shows that even the palest human skin is beige and never white.

Human skin color (black, brown, or beige) is primarily determined by a natural pigment called melanin, which is produced by skin cells (melanocytes) as a form of natural "sunscreen". Melanin evolved in different color tones depending on the ancestral exposure level to UV radiation. Darker melanin tones correlate to the proximity of ancestral populations to the equator line where ultraviolet (UV) radiation is relatively high. Lighter melanin evolved in regions far from the equator line (e.g. Northern Europe and Northern Asia) where the UV index is relatively low, and where humans had to cover the skins with animal furs to withstand the ambient cold. 

More than a "racial" concept, the term "white" is a cultural label affixed to humans of Northwestern European ancestry, and mostly of Anglo Saxon cultural descent. Referring to people as "white" is quickly becoming a pejorative in modern society because the "white" label is increasingly being associated with negative connotations of historical racism, unfair privilege, and the backlash of "white trash". 

AI fears vary by culture, and "racial" programming 

Racism is a socioeconomic and geopolitical power system that allocates socioeconomic privileges based on the ill social construct of race. Racism proved convenient to violent tribes and countries wanting to colonize others in the name of "god" and country. Modern society has imposed a high price on racism, and the practice is dissipating.  

Cultural perspective about "race" impact the views and fears related to AI. 

Nonwhites fear that AI may perpetuate racism and discrimination against them. A prevalent fear among nonwhites regarding AI is that the technology may perpetuate the patterns of "white" discrimination against them. Nonwhites also fear that AI may displace them from jobs, and leave them socioeconomically worse off. 

"Whites" fear that AI may become the "superior race" and get to discriminate against them as primitive ancestors discriminated against nonwhites. "Whites" fear that AI may displace them from the top of the global social hierarchy, which they inherited from colonialism and racism in the name of an imaginary god. 

Conjectures and generalizations are not a substitute for scientific research and critical thinking

When will the Tesla bubble burst?

December 11, 2024 When will the Tesla bubble burst?  We don't know Fools rush in. It's impossible to know exactly when the Tesla bubble will finally burst. Unfortunately for us at Creatix, we began shorting Tesla too soon. We are down almost 40% on our position as of today. We are not fooling ourselves thinking that we were ever make money on the short position. We truly doubt that Tesla can go down 40% any time soon.  We would love to add to the short position, but it would exceed our $3,000 limit on the stupid bets that we do for fun. We're not Mr. Beast. We have a very limited budget for ridiculousness. We would love to short Tesla tomorrow morning at the ridiculous share price of $424. Tesla is trading at an incredible 116 times earnings, which gives Tesla a market capitalization of $1.32 Trillion. Elon Musk added today $13.4 billion to his fortune. Yes, $13 billion in one day. Yesterday, he had added $11 billion. Yes, that's $24 billion in 2 days.  Six months ago, ...

Will Tariffs Reduce the National Debt?

Creatix / June 30, 2025 The U.S. national debt has surpassed $34.7 trillion , and the cost of servicing that debt— just the interest payments—has soared to over $1 trillion annually as of mid-2025. This marks a historic shift: we now spend more just paying interest on the National debt than on defense, Medicare, or any single discretionary program. Economists warn that unless fiscal policy changes, interest costs will crowd out critical investments in infrastructure, education, and innovation, deepening the structural debt burden for future generations. From Osama to MAGA OBBA: the path to U.S. bankruptcy. Osama Bin Laden "succeeded" in putting us in a path to bankruptcy. The U.S. national debt began to increase dramatically after 9/11, marking a sharp departure from the budget surpluses of the late 1990s. In response to the terrorist attacks, the U.S. launched costly wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, while also implementing sweeping tax cuts under the Bush administration. These...

How TikTok can Artificially Spread Socialism in America?

Creatix / June 29, 2025 TikTok's Socialist Movement in New York City  In one of the most unexpected political turns in recent New York history, Zohran Mamdani , the democratic socialist Assemblymember from Queens, has defeated former Governor Andrew Cuomo in the Democratic primary for New York City mayor. While the general election remains to be decided in November of this year, Mamdani is now the clear frontrunner. His socialist victory signals not just a generational shift, but the rise of a new kind of political power: one fueled by TikTok , a Chinese-owned social media platform that has become Gen Z’s ideological training ground. From Astoria to Citywide Dominance Mamdani first rose to prominence as a bold and principled advocate for tenants’ rights, public transportation reform, and wealth redistribution in the State Assembly. But his stunning mayoral primary win wasn’t just about policy—it was about algorithmic delivery powered by Chinese media company. Mamdani didn’t r...
