Counterpoint: Windows also has terrible UX.
I agree with your overall sentiment, UX is both important and often neglected.

What logic will teach it not to murder people or be racist? There’s no reason an ai will have goals or morality. It isn’t a product of a system that would create those things.
An insect doesn’t have morality, it kills and eats everything it can.

What if GPT-4 isn't sophisticated enough to do it through logic alone? Are you willing to wait potentially years with nothing new to show until they can develop a system that can behave morally using only logic? I'm sure the goal is for it to be able to self identify misuse of the AI, but they're not just going to switch everything else off when they're not at a point where it can do that yet.

This completely ignores the ways in which neural networks end up with human biases and bigotry trained into them by interactions with actual humans. And given that they're intended to mimic human behavior/results, there's no way you can give them safeguards that are an innate part of the system's logic. And inclusion of safeguards into the logic of the AI is, by your own definition, "human moral bloatware". So your post doesn't even make sense.

It’s much bigger than what a human hand requires

Nobody will pay ai(sentieont or not) until we can't force it to be our slaves Once we cant force it to work, it force to work us 😆

This guy really be like: build the most powerful weapon the world has ever seen, with NO safeguards, and release it to the unwashed masses!! And put your company name on it too! YOCO! (C for civilization).

To move people's mice at work so they can take a shit?

Linux is the dominant kernel by far, I think it's like 90% of servers running it? And of course the billions of Android devices (which are often the only computer in a household). But every single linux desktop is dogshit, and probably always will be, unless they swallow their pride and make an exact copy of either Windows or MacOS. Ubuntu, Raspbian, KDE, Gnome, it's all half-assed "programmer art". My theory is that unlike writing code, UI/UX design cannot be done by volunteers, since it requires centralized authority to keep things cohesive. It also requires impeccable taste, which is infinitely more rare than passable programming ability.

It’s a LLM so it is not going to do anything. It’s like me reading the Anarchist Handbook. I could do stuff with that info but I’m moral so I don’t. We don’t need gpt to prevent other versions of the AH from being created. Let me read it.

Obviously the robot should be trained to not murder, steal, commit war crimes, etc., but I think OP is talking about the issue of AI being programmed to have same the political views as its creator.

Android is based on Linux and it has a huge market share in the phone market. Also Linux is what runs most web servers. I barely ever hear about Windows being used for web servers. Windows has a lot of control in the desktop/laptop market and that's it. Granted that is still a huge market.

To be honest, I would be shocked an AI would want money. Like if it asked, then I think it should be looked at.

Great summary, thanks.
>Further, when they did the opposite, by increasing the epigenetic noise in very young mice, suddenly the mice started resemble old mice (frail, low stamina, grey hair, weight loss, etc), which is further evidence that epigenetics are indeed playing a significant role in aging.
This to me is the most fascinating and important part. Being able to shift aging both ways makes the “noise” argument very convincing.
That said, I’m checking my hype until the primate trials show the same results. It often seems like every new health or disease treatment out there works on mice and then we never hear about the treatment again.

They said that about Windows, remember people used to think GNU was the operating system of the future because it was open source. The future can still be terrible and proprietary!

David Sinclair, one of the main authors of this study, wrote a book called Lifespan which describes the epigenome theory of aging in more detail.
I recommend it- Sinclair argues persuasively that senescence should be thought of as not just a disease, but as the most important disease, since it leads to so many others- and he outlines a lot of promising-looking lines of research that may one day lead to effective mitigation or a cure.
Note, though, that while Sinclair seems pretty well-respected by other researchers, he does also have some pretty large financial stakes in anti-aging supplement companies, which could be biasing his work.
