When AI is better at creating new technologies for developing AI than humans.

No I'm not the same person, nobody is.. but my continued conscious experience is still alive. Don't conflate the two. When I say pretend, I mean the copied brain or whatever apparatus thinks it's me but it will never truly be me.

I’m actually really socialist. I’m just being realistic. I do believe it will happen at some point. It’s just people saying singularity in 20yrs and we will have unlimited everything and live forever etc. but does anyone really believe that in 20yrs materials to build a whole house will basically be free and we will have ai robots capable of digging up all the roads and installing electric, water, internet and sewers and then connecting all the plumbing and electricity up inside? An ai wouldn’t even know where to begin to dig let alone tap into existing mains and distribute it and the dexterity to do it all.

Reply to comment by Surur in Man successfully performs gene therapy on himself to cure his lactose intolerance by [deleted]
Summary for those who don't want to watch the whole thing: the effects wore off slightly over time, but he is down to a more normal level of lactose intolerance, as opposed to the extreme level he was before. So there is still long-term benefit.

In all seriousness, we'll never see this as a reality. Law makers don't want affordable housing. But, if we're moving to a point in time when AI is humanity's caregiver, why couldn't this happen? A centralized spot where resources are abundant could make it a reality.

I see what your suggesting. Your saying if we can find away to extract the materials then the amount of materials is basically unlimited and will bring the price down. That makes sense. but then we’ve still got to solve the utilities and road and sewers costs.

We do that with brick and block. It’s still a very expensive refining process unfortunately. See uk housing market. And if you mean getting like dirt from the fields and turning it into clay. Maybe with 3D printing or something but not all dirt is equal and it’s still way off 20yrs for this to be reality.

Reply to comment by just_thisGuy in Likelihood of OpenAI moderation flagging a sentence containing negative adjectives about a demographic as 'Hateful'. by grungabunga
You are a complete idiot. That tiny pea inside your nearly empty skull tells you that it’s ok to discriminate against a particular race of people. So just_thisGuy go ahead and say this next line out loud “I’m a racist” . What fuck tards like yourself, who are completely void of any ability to process the garbage they consume from mainstream media don’t realize is that once society tolerates discrimination or racism based on specific criteria it opens the door for more discrimination and hate based on whatever criteria the masses excuse at the moment.

Where is the part that we all hold hands and dance in the sunset before eating vanilla ice cream sprinkled with cherry crusts? Anyone who isn't dwelling in overly-optimistic Pollyanna world will know how this technological cusp bridled by multionational conglomerates and governments will go about.

Nope. We have a crazy amount of resources. We lack the energy to extract and seperate it. We literally sit on the biggest rock of minerals in the solar system.
People don't need unlimited amounts of anything they ofcourse want it. But if something was unlimited and cheap most people won't use as much. It's like the corporate policy of unlimited leaves, if you give people infinite leaves they actually take less than the sanctioned leaves.
People underestimate how much land there is. Even if we want to limit our total area we can always give everyone more vertical space.

Yes but the problem is that there is only a limited amount of resources on the planet and we as humans want unlimited things. For example, if Walmart said tomorrow that food will be free, watch a massive stampede of people grabbing everything and leaving others with nothing. This is why we have a cost mechanism and supply and demand. This is the problem with housing there is only a limited amount of materials and land which is what is stopping everyone from having affordable housing. It’s an unfortunate reality but reality never the less.

If you are equally likely to be any one human throughout history, then you're most likely to be born in the time period that supports the most humans.

I agree as a Japanese person that speaks English it's funny how extremely bad even the best AI tools are right now into translating Japanese into English. English to Japanese is a bit better but still not very good.
I recognize that it needs AGI to properly translate Japanese into English. Because Japanese lacks so much context that current AIs basically just "hallucinate" the missing context like how ChatGPT bullshits code when it doesn't know what to do.

Okay so I’m big believer in offsite manufacturing for housing and it’s finally starting to take off. If you look into panellised walls, pod bathrooms etc. I 100% believe that will happen in the next 20yrs. I just can’t get my head around how the housing will be a lot cheaper as the main issues killing the cost of housing is the utilities and materials.

Money won't matter. It is very unlikely that society would tolerate some having an obscene amount of land while others don't when individual value addition is zero. AI is about to make everybody equal, equally pointless, and unlike the failed communist attempts at the same, forced equality now is not gonna be an economic disaster.

It’s not solved, modern CV is completely different and inferior from how animals perceive visually. Animals don’t do geometry->labelling, they do geometry->action.

Some people mistakenly believe that the technological singularity is synonymous with AGI and AGI by 2025-2030 is unlikely but not impossible.

Reply to AI that can translate whole videos ? by IluvBsissa
The technology to do all the individual steps is already there. It's just a matter of doing it yourself or waiting for some business to do the work for you. I expect such a service will be a available later this year either as a standalone or built in to YouTube Premium.

Look at Czinger Automobile and the vertical assembly line concept Kevin Czinger is propagandizing. If you have a car designed for 3d printing, and fiber tubes, you might produce some big portion of a car. However, I tried sesrching the videos of an assembly process of Czinger 21C and did not find any. So it is probably an overassumption (at least) at this point.

A recent approach saves past experience data and loads it back for in-context-learning. The model itself can be task generic. So it learns by collecting new data.
