  1. Would be funny if not sad

  2.  @41-Haiku  me too! Though a pause seems difficult to achieve with current race conditions. A joint effort like CERN for AGI (Demis Hassabis) might be the only way to sort of safely get there...

  3. 1) probably both

  4. One wrong prediction = all predictions wrong
    1
  5. Like Geoffrey Hinton?
    1
  6. Or the others are not so much earlier to get here yet... light speed would most likely be an upper border for ASI as well

  7. Exactly why worry about anything when you can be an ostrich
    1
  8. @DrD0000M  there's nothing dangerous out there if you're an ostrich... climate change, AI, atomic bombs, you can define anything as hoax

  9. Crazy to see how many "experts" are willing to attest LLMs a lack of consciousness, reasoning, thinking, etc., without having the slightest idea how these things actually come about in the human brain. Maybe start reading some brain research on it, guys!!

  10. That's why the government is now in with all the major AI labs, it's official US policy to be the first to reach AGI to dominate all future wars.

  11. Don't mistake criticism for defetism

  12. ​ @jeremiebelaid9070 Sure, it sometimes works, sometimes doesn't.

  13. Was the switch intended? But I guess you just meant being taken over by AI ;)

  14. Great then, we'll never have to bother about alignment or instrumental convergence... wait, recent studies show alignment faking already??

  15. Read up on orthogonality thesis

  16. If we're doomed, at least with good hair.

  17. Be releaved: since there's been so many wrong doom scenarios in the past, doom will never happen! We've pulled ourselves out of the mud just by inventing all of them ;)

  18. Still better than racing to the bottom like the other lampoons propose
    1
  19. We also didn't need to flap wings for propelling an airplane.

  20. Great then, we'll never have to bother about alignment or instrumental convergence... wait, recent studies show alignment faking already??

  21. It still can destroy us all without ever being "truly" intelligent
    1
  22.  @laberbla6466  maybe read up on instrumental convergence or some recent papers on alignment faking
    1
  23. I like your conclusion in the end :)
    1
  24. ​ @blackrack2008 if you actually read the paper, you'd see most of Sabines claims aren't even in there.

  25. ​ @spaniard13 you beat me to it ;)

  26. If this is sarcasm, it's not easy to tell.

  27. Great then, we'll never have to bother about alignment or instrumental convergence... wait, recent studies show alignment faking already??

  28. Great then, we'll never have to bother about alignment or instrumental convergence... wait, recent studies show alignment faking already??

  29.  @_Kid_Buu_  if we have the time left before turned into paper clips ;)
    1
  30.  @sstidman  you're welcome :) If i may share something else: alignment is going to be crucial to solve first. Instrumental convergence and the recent papers on alignment faking are important reads...
    1
  31.  @KayOScode  well just in case you're wrong, i'd still try to get alignment right ;)
    1
  32. Isn't it? Doesn't mean it's not coming.
    1
  33. I recently had a very bad food, so i don't think eating makes sense at all!
    1
  34. And the climate will never change
    1
  35. You still don't get it, do you? Read up on instrumental convergence and alignment faking.
    1
  36. ​ @Smurfette-v9l but humans do?
    1
  37. ​ @Smurfette-v9l humans do something "by themselves"?
    1
  38. ​ @Smurfette-v9l  No need to "think of a counter", it's no game here unfortunately. We're all gonna suffer the consequences if we don't solve alignment before ASI. Whatever you think they can or can not do "by themselves", it includes alignment faking and striving for the goals of instrumental convergence: self improvement, self preservation, resource acquisition.
    1
  39. ​ @Smurfette-v9l counter: instrumental convergence
    1
  40. ​ @SkorjOlafsen Have you actually read about instrumental convergence, or some of the recent papers on alignment faking?
    1
  41. It's called alignment, and recent studies show alignment faking already...
    1
  42. Pull the plug may seem like a trivial solution, but is not at all. Eg computerphile has a nice vid on that
    1
  43. ​ @diadetediotedio6918 before accusing other people being false, maybe read some actual brain research papers on the topic.
    1
  44. Let's hope it doesn't start to think then
    1
  45. Wrong premise. "Given the statement" gives a statement, it literally asks not to doubt that statement.
    1
  46.  @TheRealPaulMarshall  or maybe no point to miss
    1
  47.  @TheRealPaulMarshall  probably :)

  48. Like Sam Altman did...
    1
  49. Yes. Or would you argue germans live in the worst-possible world?
    1
  50. Literally? So i guess these maths olympiad medals and protein structure discoveries are just fake news...
