Saved by Amazing Grace. Now learning to let God write the story of my life. Learning to write among other things.

But in the main I do not think AI does, or will present a threat if sufficient safeguards are kept - such as keeping humans in the loop for most AI development.

Of course, there is always that company that decides to secretly disobey the rules and creates fully-self-improving AI

Just read the article co-authored by Marina Favaro and Jack Clark from Anthropic. In short, it leaves me a little more convinced than before that AI can go rogue, but not much. My thoughts follow...

This article addresses the main threat of a rogue AI, but does not address the threat of an agent that simply makes a mistake at a critical juncture, or chronically makes mistakes in other surprising ways.

IBM's NorthPole technology is very interesting with 4,000 faster performance than the previous chip.

"It has 256 cores and can perform 2,048 operations per core per cycle at 8-bit precision... It’s an entire network on a chip,” Modha said.

@lady_valor_07 Looks like a plumbline.

@victor_teodoro_ @amazing_physics That was my thought. Momentum is actually a form of energy.

[Timothy Grindall @TimothyGrindal1]

Writing this article helped crystallize a thought for me: that machine intelligence design is not independent from current computer hardware design. Actually, they've always been highly intertwined.

And this will guide our way going forward.

A book I read ten years ago changed the way I think about intelligence — human and artificial. Jeff Hawkins argues we've been building AI wrong from the start.

Why the true difficulty of Mars colonization is not sending people, but the unglamorous reality of sustaining a Mars colony.

"Maybe humankind can stop waging war on each other long enough to touch the sky."

My thoughts on Mars, Elon Musk, and whether God approves of the mission.

@maniaUFO Looks obviously AI enhanced, though this waterfall in Yosemite is real.

[Timothy Grindall @TimothyGrindal1]

Convincing people to go to Mars is probably the easy part. The real challenge is everything that comes after.

Ask why traditional programming wouldn’t work first. You might be surprised how often traditional programming can win. AI can be overpowered for many computing tasks https://t.co/2UuDJujVN5
