@BenjaminDEKR@AISafetyMemes then you are a database with a very poor lookup function - you can't look up the bloody exponential curve of AI development to see it's going through the roof.
@Dr_Singularity WEF / Schwab did an experiment by asking industry leaders what they expect in 10 years : most of their 'far out' predictions were off. We live in a much more mundane world than they expected. I imagine something similar in this case too.
@bryan_johnson as far as I can tell - AI breaks the human anthropological identity (what it means to be human when machines are as good as all the cognitive and physical labor or better?) - - and the "patch" is transhumanism/posthumanism, whether for better or worse..
@selectsand@ben_j_todd with p-zombies we're hitting on the *even harder problem of consciousness* (Block), but we're nowhere near solving even the hard one.
stating that AI is "stateless" I think you're missing out on basically the entire corpus of data+compute+training+functional organization of AI
@DaveShapi pushing 'AI-enabled fully automated luxury space communism utopia: seems a little more detached from reality than a sober evaluation of AI risks.
@DaveShapi the median p(doom) of all the top AI scientists is roughly 17 to 30% and you call them all psychotic? how do you even reconcile the fact that AI is going to be smarter than humans (it already is in various domains) and there's currently 0 clue on how to align it?
@sarahsalviander not to mention a) multiverse theory was invented ad hoc precisely to tackle the uncomfortable reality of fine-tuning and b) latest calculations show that even if multiverse exists, it also had to have a beginning AND must be even more fine-tuned to begin with!
@DaveShapi I'm not entirely convinced there's an replacement for labor-based-income. @DaveShapi solution is distributed ownership of the entire ecosystem and passive income via blockchain-based distribution platforms? I might need to clarify this, because it seems vague and unsubstantiated.
