@JayShooster @ESYudkowsky lower class people aren't in any danger from the AI

@meta_x_ai @ShutItAIIDown @romanhelmetguy we'd still have the cheap tv's with higher taxes on the epstein class

[FractalShapes @fractalshapes]

@romanhelmetguy he's not the person that did that, it's the same people funding the AI companies that did that.

@Ariadnahol you can feel the amount of hatred from that image

It's kinda crazy the president is a blackmailed pedophile and that's not even talked about anymore

People clowning on him don’t understand what he’s saying.

All the wealth of humanity to date supports perhaps 250k living math phds. Roughly the population of St. Louis, Missouri.

The training pipeline for that group has been irreparably shattered in the last month.

A phd is supposed to make an original contribution to their field to graduate.

That’s just…. not possible anymore.

938 years after the founding of the first university in Bologna…

Do universities now reward… teaching ? comprehension of something discovered by a machine? application ? do mathematicians become quotidian (gasp of disgust) engineers?

Tao is upset because he knows none of those outside the field care about its future. He is a horrified gardener watching humanity gorge on its seed corn.

It is irreparable of course. The old way is dead dead.

We live in the short interregnum before the new king is born: a Lean crawler that spawns a billion copies exploring every corner of math latenspace.

So much math to understand that even if 8 billion humans had the ability of the 250k mathematicians alive today, it would still take a million years to comprehend.

It is ironic and sad.. because Tao himself is a pioneer of collaborative math: math that is understood by a combination of minds rather than an pindividual.

The tools that Tao began exploring a few years ago, solving problems through blog posts and using Lean to guarantee each mind’s contribution stood on its own when assembled into the greater truth, have been turned against him.

Math’s path to utilize multiple minds didn’t restrict access to human minds, and now the machines have blitzkrieged themselves into the heart of the matter.

The agents use rudimentary message boards, working 10,000 to a task, tirelessly, using Lean to verify the correctness of each contribution.

It was good while it lasted… and now it’s gone.

@fimbres_paul @math_lore @beffjezos @DrTimBarber profoundly stupid e.g. not your dumb bigoted racist beliefs

[FractalShapes @fractalshapes]

@math_lore @beffjezos @DrTimBarber isn't he also known to not have a massive ego and spends most of his time helping other mathematicians? these people you are arguing with are thiel-bots and ex crypto techbros who want to strip everything nice and warm in this world

@technohobo23 Time to switch to chinese AI's I think

finally, a Democrat with a good position on AI!

this kinda makes up for a lot of my recent issues with her

[FractalShapes @fractalshapes]

@tszzl Why don't EA's want AI to be completely low cost and completely free? what if an Einstein is born in Africa with no money and a shit laptop?

[college hill || rachel adjogah @thecollegehill]

lovely, smart, thoughtful people get sucked into cults all the time. that's part of the tragedy here

[FractalShapes @fractalshapes]

@technohobo23 feels like it doesn't it

[Left Tail Chud @_left_tail_chud]

@yacineMTB gonna be vulnerable for a second and admit that I was feeling some feelings yesterday when I saw that study that said models can feel pain. I get it I guess. This is not a good thing and I wish I wasn't like this
