They become affordable if you have a job

/r/futurology

Have at it.

Considering the investments the OpenAI has going now, they ARE the startup. And GPT4 is supposed to be early 2023.. I don't see another company except maybe google, beating them to this release.. GPT5?

🤣

Anime therapy. Watch something happy like Nichijou. Don't watch something dark like Neon Genesis Evangelion; I'm afraid that show wouldn't be good for someone like you who sees conspiracies in everything.

Ha! I’m leaving it!

Yeah wtf is going on over there? They act as if high demand technologies don't eventually become affordable for working and middle class folks.

The larger a sub gets, the harder it is to moderate, resulting in the content becying the same as every other large sub on reddit.

Once a sub crosses the millionth subscriber, it basically becomes r/pics

AI therapy or human therapy ?

I recommend therapy.

We should accelerate this, I would rather retrain my career sooner than later.

You are on coke if you think we will be able to manufacture everything in the universe in our little pods in the 2030s. We gon be able to make suitable spaceships and fockin energy weapons right ? Sure, it’ll do awesome stuff but plz stop acting like it will run smoother than you think this early, there will be limitations as humanity matures but then limitations will shrink once we start terraforming and sucking energy outta stars. The rich are going to kill most of us AND mindupload us. Idk what’s it going to take to believe that. We won’t have to kill many animals anymore if humans die too. We save space and eventually turn ourselves into fucking wires and the process of evolutions starts back over again. Just ask Keanu. “By 2030 you’ll own nothing and be happy” is metaphorical. You’ll own anything you want in the simulations we create.

Lol. Hope you live long enough to get neural implants so you can read better. Or you can ask chatGPT to summarize for you.

LessWrong is still active.

Are those guys from LessWrong still around? I think they were super into the whole 2030 agenda business.

Definitely when someone dumps on the whole thing and completely misses the concept, definitely escalates the elevation of that shotgun.

Gotta be the dumbest comment

Or literally none of that will happen. Do you just sit around imagining increasingly more bizarre and convoluted ways rich people bad? Get a grip. Your inane speculation has so many moving parts it might as well be a ferris wheel.

Somehow you've taken the very credible concept of AI-driven existential risk and reduced it to a ridiculous conspiracy where AGI cooperates with a global cabal of Disney villains to do something untenable and pointless.

"by 2030 we will own nothing and be happy"

You've said that quote a million times, but people will be able to manufacture what they want with nanofactories, so we will continue to own things, regardless of the dumb claims made by elitists from the World Economic Forum.

And of course the top comment is some doomer saying the rich will use it to starve everyone. I fucking hate the futurology sub.

> We will be soon desensitized with art as we know it today (pretty looking photos, beautiful landscapes, renaissance work), because when things become too cheap to produce without requiring any expertise, it automatically diminishes in value and society will come up with new trend

I already kind of feel like this is the case. Not on an individual level, I can still be impressed and enjoy work, and I don't think that will really change.

But what were previously virtuosic displays of skill in many domains aren't remotely as novel as they used to be. Simply due to the mass proliferation of skill and material access, the number of people who posses the technical skill of those previously considered masters is fairly huge.

If you're an aspiring artist or creative in any domain, you already have to assume there are thousands and thousands of people who are as good or better than you will likely ever be. AI changes the economic paradigm to be sure, but I'm not sure how much AI will change the emotional paradigm of why people pursue creation.

The trillionaires billionaires at the World Economic Forum know and tell us by 2030 we will own nothing and be happy 😏

Sure. One idea I have had is :

1. Megacorps develop very capable AGI tools and let others see them

2. Have billionaire friends, get startup money

3. Use the AGI tools to automate mass biomedical research

4. Once the AGI system understands biology well, give challenge tasks to grow human organs or keep small test animals alive. Most tasks are simulated but some are real.

5. Open up a massive hospital in a poor jurisdiction with explicit permission to do any medical treatment the AGI wants as long as the result are good.

6. Some kind of Blockchain accountability, where patients before applying to go to your hospital register and get examined first and the conventional medical establishment writes down their current age and expected lifespan and terminal diagnosis. Then after treatment they return and get examined again. Blockchain is just so history can't be denied or altered.

7. Payments are on success. Waitlist order is based partially on payment bid. Reinvest all profits to expand capacity and capabilities

8. Use your overwhelming evidence of success to lobby western governments to ban non AI medicine and to revoke drug patents. (Because there is no value in pharma patents if an AI can invent a new drug in seconds. To an AI, molecules are as easy to use as we find hand tools and it can just design one to fit any target.)

9. The owners of the clinic would be trillionaires. It's the most valuable product on earth

It’s not “exactly the sort of simple fallacy” you imagine. The number of people who could be members of this group is fundamentally finite.

Intelligence is not, as far as we can ascertain, finite.

An AGI will not only have integral access to the billion-times speed up for basic operations (sorting lists, counting, mathematical functions, etc.) but it will be able to adjust its programming (or neural weights and connections) on the fly.

Human beings will be outstripped in no time at a level that will be incomprehensible to us.

I need to fix the breaks on my bike. What assumptions I'm searching for?

> The greatest cognitive skill in a post-ChatGPT world is going to be: Asking the right questions. And then, Knowing where to ask them.

Yeah it smart to know you chatgpt and this crop of generative models are not good for searching information - they might make shit up about the breaks that will kill me in traffic. I wouldn't knowing to Google the greatest cognitive skill though.
