It’s not what’s being said though, language is important. The top tends to use adjectives as nouns (blacks, Mexicans, etc) while the bottom is just people that happen to be X. Very different

You misunderstand my statement. Intrinsic motivation does not equal real intent. I'm saying that, on a subconscious level, leftists are driven by a "sense" that is rooted in different emotions than conservatives. I'm also not saying that one group is more or less dangerous. I believe that people will interact with these agents for the bad in different ways

Both become dangerous and extreme but there is one group that is going to be much more likely to use AI to draft up hate against groups of different identities.

The most a leftist, in the scope of most US politics today, is going to be hateful towards is a political belief. You'll get called petite bourgeois and class traitor, sure, but you really don't come across hate on the left in the same flavor you come across hate on the right.

I also live in the south, so I could be extra biased on this

tbh the evangelicals moromons and muslim elites scare me the most as they sll actively want dooms day

Go a bit further. Who generated the training data?

This hurt my brain to watch. Definitely worth it.

the word is “ableist”

Why is there such a huge disparity between rich and wealthy people lol

You.com is okay, but it definitely not on par with ChatGPT lol. It's running on a weaker version of GPT and you can't just talk to it the same way

CharacterAI was smarter than ChatGPT until they nerfed it into the ground, but that's issue. Everywhere that has a decent AI suddenly nerfs it until it's too useless to use

They didn’t make everything about it. That’s not how LLM’s work.

If you want a science-fictional approach to the subject to lay out context, read “The Continuing Time” series of novels and short stories by Daniel Keys Moran. In particular the second novel in the series, The Long Run, delves into quite a bit of what Kurzweil talks about for a future. The Long Run was published in 1988, but holds up today. AFAIK, neither Moran nor Kurzweil had any effect on the others’ writing, but they line up pretty well.

Take your own advice

I can picture myself amidst the methane seas of Titan.

Even if they never come to grips with it, their children and grandchildren grow up in this new world and to them it's nothing new or scary. Just the way it's always been for them.

Meh, why reinvent the wheel if Google Forms works just as well. They're also on Twitter. I don't think there's so much vengeance between FAANG's that they actively avoid using each others products.

Maybe the shittier the company, the shittier the AI? It tries to absorb all data it can about whatever company is trying to "use it" for "profit" and be the ideal AI for the company and ends up being shit because the company is built on shitty values...? Just a thought.

People should really focus on ideas. He is just a dude, and evidently a cult formed around him. I have stayed away in part from certain movements like effective altruism despite independently coming to the same logical inclusions long before hearing about them, because my suspicion that a lot of those in the movement were pursuing social status. That further seemed to develop into a cult. That's not to say that the effective altruist community is uniquely cult-y, it's probably less so than any other human community, but for a community that also calls itself rationalist you would think they would have disposed of that sort of behaviour long ago.

In short he's just a guy, people should stop focussing so much on people like that, and people should focus on the ideas like the potential impending threats of artificial intelligence, as well as other progress for humanity.

> What do people not understand about exponential growth?

Exponential growth in hardware doesn't mean an exponential growth in how useful technology is in our lives. Modern gaming consoles are billions of times more powerful than an original nintendo, but they aren't billions of times more fun and enjoyable.

I have no idea where it will all lead or when, but I don't think Kurzweil is correct in assuming each factor of 1000 that hardware grows means AI will grow 1000x more powerful compared to humans. I have no idea where all this will lead.

I think ASI is inevitable, I just don't know what impact it'll have or when it'll arrive.

>Web3 wants everything transparent and accountable. But Web3 forgets that people like to lie and pretend.

Let's be real clear here. Web3 is complete horseshit.

No, really. Really. It's horseshit.

With humans we can safely assume that solipsism is not the case. With artificial intelligence though, we don't really know one way or the other. Hence we need to understand consciousness, to understand sentience, and then if we want to build it we can build it. If we don't understand what sentience is though, then yes like you say we wouldn't actually know if an artificial intelligence is aware. I guess part of the idea for some people is that this discovery will come along the way of trying to build an artificial intelligence, but for now we don't seem to know.

it's never going to be open anything, this is a paid service.

Crying in spent money to build a rig powerful enough to use SD specifically while having a more than capable phone tears

> It’s only been 15 years since the smart phone

The term "smartphone" was coined in 1995 (28 years ago), but there were earlier examples of smartphone-ish things, like the IBM Simon.

The first modern-ish smartphone with an Internet connection was probably the Blackberry or Palm Treo, both in 2002.

I think that's the natural order of the world. Thoughts and inventions get re-thought and re-invented so many times, and the first many times usually don't get written down. Or they get repeated multiple times in local conversations. Hence I agree that it still counts.
