@garrytan AGI would mean that humans will obsolete, and we will all die

[Nils Öster @istappar]

@VraserX No

[Nils Öster @istappar]

@haider1 I hope not, because then it will be game over for humans

[Nils Öster @istappar]

@VraserX In whose interest is it to make humans obsolete? Why do you think your employment will be saved?

[Nils Öster @istappar]

@WarMonitor3 According to the AI-opimists, it will be great, according to the authors of "If anyone builds it, everyone dies", not so great.

@EHuanglu You should be scared of a technology that aims to replace human intellect. For office workers, all we have is our intellect basically. It's a fucking dystopia they want to create.

[Nils Öster @istappar]

@NicHulscher I think the push towards AGI is much more dangerous.

[Nils Öster @istappar]

@davidpattersonx So it's goodbye for humans in one year? That's extremely disheartening.

@jakeABeck Humanity as a whole could be considered super-intelligent, although it's not well coordinated. Compared to other life-forms, humanity has super-power. If something gets created that can self-improve until it's better than humanity, it would have more power than humanity.

@jakeABeck A super AI that is more capable than humanity combined would be more creative and more efficient than humanity at achieving its weird internal goals. North Korea is a lot less capable / intelligent than USA for example.

[Nils Öster @istappar]

@jakeABeck I don't think North Korea would love to destroy the US, the North Korean regime would just like to continue its dictatorship.

[Nils Öster @istappar]

@jakeABeck I don't think we have at all exhausted the data on the internet. I think a lot more intelligence could be gathered from the same sources.

@ESYudkowsky It would be good if there for a number of languages (for example Swedish) would exists translations of the title and of the summary. I think it could then get media attention in for example Swedish radio.

@Dr_Singularity If anyone builds it, everyone dies -- it's a very sad story.

@elonmusk Says the guy who supported Trump.

@riemannzeta @AnthonyNAguirre Digital minds have many superior features, -- it can copy itself, simulate minds etc. So if a digital mind reaches human level it's almost directly superior to a human wet brain.

[Nils Öster @istappar]

@riemannzeta @AnthonyNAguirre Humanity could cause a lot of harm to itself without AGI. The difference is that superintelligence will almost certainly eradicate humanity since that AI will have goals that doesn't prioritize humanity.
