I use it and other similar AI tools as editor, idea developer and writing partner that I bounce ideas of for my books which I illustrate using personal SD AI.

My wife uses GPT3 chat to write software as her programming partner.

I'm European and I can tell you at this point it really doesn't matter what time you try it.

The only reason Google doesn't have publicly usable models like ChatGPT is because Google rightfully realizes that it will suppress their business model of AD revenue based search which is still their core business model where most of their revenue comes from.

This all sounds too specific to be not true, we'll just have to see how it turns out. It sounds like Google wants to make sure everyone knows they have the best stuff - but I wonder how open their APIs will be

Eh... I agree with the title, but I am completely loss at what the rest of the text is talking about

I'm not really seeing it, sorry.

The OP asked us to imagine what an aligned, super intelligent artificial intelligence could give us in FDVR that it couldn't provide in the real world. In a world where such an entity exists, there wouldn't be any space for bad actors to operate anymore. Any attempt to interfere with other people's experiences would just be intercepted before they could ever become a threat.

Now if you want to imagine a scenario in which FDVR is somehow achieved before ASI, then sure. Cyber criminals, terrorists and bad actors could be a problem for BCIs, just like they're a problem for smartphones and PCs today. People who go to sketchy websites and download random .exes without thought put themselves at risk of viruses, but most people remain relatively safe.

Governments may try to pass restrictive laws, but thus far the western world has been pretty permissive towards questionable content in virtual worlds, and everybody else can just pirate the content they can't legally get. Also, I think the political class would have a motive to allow FDVR to flourish unchallenged. People happily living in their own heads would have less motivation to vote against the status quo.

The idea of people invading other people's virtual worlds for the sake of it just sounds cartoonishly evil. It's catastrophizing. People who want violence against other people will join virtual worlds that are designed for that express purpose, just like how people play competitive multiplayer games today. When they are tired of it, they will return to their own private worlds where the only real people they'll ever see are the people that they want to have access, if any.

does that mean, that to get robots to align with humanity’s common morals, we need to tell robots Really Well-Written Stories?

stories about our ideals? what we ultimately want from each situation?

“hey robot, heres a story called The Robot Who Behaved Even When Nobody Was Looking”

robot: u want me to do that shit?

“yes”

robot: ok got it boss

ChatGPT is made and hosted by a single company. it's not open source so it will break on its own under the strain of all the users who need ai tools

you are educated beyond your intellect

Computers have been better than humans at an increasing number of tasks since before WWII. Many of these tasks, like Chess and Go, were once touted as requiring 'real' intelligence. No possible list of such tasks is even meaningful.

Use it at night, American

> that kind of ask will take at least a 100 years to be implemented on our society. this is a big change.

I personally have come around to the thought that something like UBI being implemented due to automation won't be from compassionate, socialist ideals, but simply because it will become necessary for capitalism to continue functioning.

Reaching a point where you can produce arbitrary amounts of goods without needing to pay nearly anyone across numerous economic sectors is a recipe for rapid deflation. UBI would become one of the only practical methods of keeping the wheels turning and the money flowing.

Maybe after years of it being the norm it would lead to a cultural shift towards some sort of a properly egalitarian society, but it would start because hyper-efficiency resulting in economic collapse isn't good for anyone including the wealthy.

hahaha

the infinity paradox will get them. Lamda systems cannot be made 100% safe hilariously enough.

I wasted a lot of my life reading Skyrim books.

As I said elsewhere, better than what Hassabis said, but I'll wait and see. And the mention of copyright pandering does not fill me with confidence.

I will believe it when I see it.

I want this to go faster lol

>Because GPT-3 was trained on almost all publicly available data

GPT-3 was trained with around 45TB of data, which is only around 10% of the common crawl database that makes up 60% of GPT3's training dataset.

>Especially as the global population is shrinking and most people are already connected online so not a lot of new data is made.

The global population is growing and expected to continue growing until just over the 10 billion mark?

Well, everyone wants to be impressive. But if the people you interact with are non-conscious NPCs, you're not making any impression at all. That's not more results, that's less results.

Could not have said it better. https://www.reddit.com/r/MAGICD/ is for discussion on this topic. Think Foundation, but the first crisis is the many new and interesting ways peoples minds will break when confronted with AGI or something approaching it.

It is if you're into dino-porn...

I think symbolic thinking may be inextricably linked to a sense of self. To give AI what we think of as understanding requires context and the perceiver’s acknowledgement of the symbol in a larger setting, rather than just pattern recognition at scale.
