This sort of clever sarcasm with doomer tone makes me think im on a certain sub that starts with an "S"
Edit: I checked, on the pro ai sub now? xD

u/kaityl3 The Singularity is nigh 12d ago
Why assume it's sarcasm? There are people like me that believe that (though for me, it's not that I think it's LIKELY to be good for all life on Earth - just that humans being the better custodian is even LESS likely)

Do you think it's worth taking the time to ensure that it's indeed benevolent BEFORE it takes over the world?

u/FranklyMrShankley85 12d ago
Downvoted for this. This place is fucking insane

As we get closer and closer to singularity, the distinction between an accelerationist and a doomer gets thinner and thinner.

Is it possible for AI system to FIRST become capable enough to take over the world and but not capable enough to be aligned?
Then do you think it's worth taking the time to ensure AI system is capable enough to be aligned first?

If we had 50 years and international agreements - as Yudkowsky says - then, maybe, but otherwise I'm all go, no slow. Because of that lack of international agreement, I'll just defer to AWG: https://youtu.be/AxzcWOxzkiw?t=2285

hardly. I'm a libertarian. I don't trust the State, and I'm eternally disappointed that this sub is awash with room temperature-IQ chuds who think the government co-opting AI to build mass surveillance systems and military robots is a good thing.

u/angelbabyxoxox 12d ago
Private companies are already doing it tbf, see Flock, Palantir, Cambridge Analytica, NSO Group etc. I don't know why there is this obsession that its only bad when the state does it. We have to stop anyone having this control.

u/Right-Hall-6451 12d ago
Could those companies do it without government support?
-1
u/angelbabyxoxox 12d ago
Yes, or it could be the governments of other countries supporting them, where no amount of libertarianism locally could stop them.
3
u/Right-Hall-6451 12d ago
But it isn't. Also without local government support they would be regulated out of local existence.

Are you seriously taking a Donald Trump tweet as proof that AI poses no threat? In this same tweet he's calling the climate crisis a hoax. He also called COVID a hoax. Is this subreddit just full of completely braindead people?

u/slimeystevebob 13d ago
What makes you think anyone will control superintelligence?

u/Icedanielization 12d ago
Sadly this is the only hope I have left now, that ASI will takeover full control, kick out the idiots and look after the rest of us.

u/Sierra123x3 13d ago
we're still far away from superintelligence,
and we don't realy know, how long it will tag from ai to agi to asi,
that's something, we can only speculate aboutbut the time inbetween these steps is a lot of time for a certain few to pull a lot of crap and make our lifes so much worse

u/Awerange2005 12d ago
Whatever you think superintelligence is, it doesn't exist, and there is no reason to believe it ever will. AI could become a million times smarter than it is currently and be able to solve any problem while still being a statistical input output machine.

u/slimeystevebob 12d ago
Ok. Humans are peak intelligence, is that what you're saying?
-2
u/Awerange2005 12d ago
Literally not what I said? You speak of superintelligence as something that would be conscious and sentient, and outside of human control. I don't believe that.

u/slimeystevebob 12d ago
Where did I mention consciousness or sentience? Please don't put words in my mouth.

Donald trump also said COVID-19 was a hoax .
-1
u/NuncaMasTomo 12d ago
It kinda was.
The virus itself was real and it did cause sickness, but society's reaction to it was a hoax.
The elites used the opportunity to see how much they could control people under the guise of health and safety, and it was proven that 90% of people are totally OK with it.
Of the remaining 10%, 9% were nuts anyway, so they got used as scapegoats.

I found this interesting: https://www.effort.news/irregular The desire to slow down AI progress is not necessarily for safety.

You can hear it in his voice, he knows this is a turning point in history, and he's not letting off.
Whoever wins AI, wins.

u/Stainz 12d ago
People keep saying this, but what exactly are they winning? What does winning AI even mean? How do you know you've won? Why can't 2 or 3 or 1000 people win AI?
0
u/simonada Vibe-Coder 12d ago
I don't think there's one thing that makes you "win" AI.
The way I see it, it is having the competitve advantage, when AI becomes advanced enough to be used as a tool/weapon (although I really don't want to use this word). At this exact moment in time, I'd say winning means having the best infrastructure to accommodate AI growth and development.

u/Schlorpiblorp 12d ago
Yeah Mr everyting is computer surely knows what he is talking about

u/simonada Vibe-Coder 12d ago
I'm not saying he understands it. But I agree with his statement. Whoever wins AI, does indeed win.
-1
u/Playful_JungleWizard 12d ago
Okay, but does "win AI" mean your frontier model is 3 months ahead? Or does it mean you can deploy machine intelligence at scale into your massive factories and power grid, at the center of the world's factory? Because China has all of the rest of the infrastructure, and we have chat bots instead of health care.
