Bad take, we will instead mix biological and technological strengths to maximize our abilities, because there's a reason organic brains are so fricking useful, we just don't understand the underlying infrastructure and are using technology to learn more about it and try to emulate it, albeit a much lower efficiency than a biological computer.

yeah but how can we train that. even if we show it the best anime artists that use certain technics. it can copy style and it may can follow up on animation. but real high end animations im thinking of are set together in your brain. if you look at them on how they are animated frame by frame they make no sense. for the coming years ai will do amazing things. but i think from the current transformer based, diffusion and reconstructing we may just get another style filter that looks cool but not 100% fitting. i think we may not be able to shake that unnatural feeling that comes with those ais for quite some time. but happy to be wrong

Well if I made an ASI, I wouldn't tell anyone about it, and just use it to trade the stock markets until I own everything, and no one would ever know it was AI related. I might become famous as being the smartest and richest man in the world, I'll have to start wearing a top hat and a monocle, but no one would suspect it's really thanks to the ASI, "because that can't be hidden".

On top of that I'd get the ASI to develop cutting edge technologies. The most obvious being software, I'd tell it to develop next gen viruses and crypto and apps, but to make it look like a human might have designed it. I'd use those to gain more control over the world, but no one would suspect it's really thanks to the ASI, "because that can't be hidden".

And with all those resources I'd start companies, and tell the ASI to design next gen technologies and products that my companies would build. I'd be considered the smartest man alive, creating things that no human ever thought of, but no one would suspect it's really thanks to the ASI, "because that can't be hidden".

And with my unfathomable wealth I'd finally create really advanced technologies in secret, where the ASI doesn't have to pretend a human could have designed it. Things like teleportation and telepathy, which I'd use in secret to become the ruler of the entire world. And people will wonder how I became so powerful, how I could do things that can't be explained, but no one would suspect it's really thanks to the ASI, "because that can't be hidden".

I wish OpenAI hadn't ever released ChatGPT. Also all those "democratize AI" guys screaming for research labs to release their AI for public use. What a mess. Now we're gonna end up with third party non-research corporations trying to use AI to make money to our long term detriment, and probably get royally rekt by some corpo money-making AI.

Are you saying they dont have English Data and cant scrape billions of pages from English content?

They did that 15 years ago and have been doing it ever since. With half a trillion dollars invested and the most smartest people in the world I can tell you they will compete and they will compete very bloody hard.

They want to show the world that they will be top dog for AI and you know who is going to help them? Westerners because they will hire the smartest people in the world.

The federal reserve absolutely creates dollars. Describing various open market operations it engages in changes NOTHING. You are just describing the general operation.

>However it's better characterized as an abstraction of obligation.

It spends as money, it's money. It's just plain stupid to suggest otherwise.

Once again US banks are no longer fractional reserves. I posted the link.

>can give you your 1000 dollars back when you ask for it even if the person they loaned 800 dollars to hasn't paid THEM back yet.

This hasn't been an issue since the vast majority of money went digital. They don't even consider it any more. The point of the reserves in the past WAS so you could they could hand out paper money and overall would have enough.

>It's a complex system and it's hard to understand

Not at all. It is when you want to be deceptive.

>The complexity and the abstractions all over the place make it seem nefarious until you understand it better.

That's just funny. A central authority with absolute control over everyone's lives that has the ability to create endless amounts of money with no one able to know how they spend it...nahh....not nefarious at all.

>t's not just the fault of the Federal Reserve it's our leaders across the board in corporate offices, in government, everywhere to blame.

No, it's just the central banks. That's really it. Good to know their sycophants are all over the place though.

>It's more of a tool that doesn't care one way or the other.

Cool. Let's audit it.

>It's better to focus on the political leaders as well as people in the executive and judicial branches because they can actually do something about it, and they haven't. They've been working for the very rich.

If you aren't working for the bankers, you should be! They'll pay you handsomely for this level of propaganda.

Wrong. IP is what makes the wheel of investment move to create more IP. Remove the incentive and you will find progress slowing to a halt. Who in their sane kind would put money into a venture they don't own?

They're just taking shortcuts. Watch them hoard and protect IP once they develop it. Everyone wants to be on top, that is the way of the world, no different for China than for the US, or any other country... Just don't use that to justify stealing...

>i do not think AI can copy that.

Back in 2019 Google said they'd make an announcement concerning their AI playing Starcraft. As we discussed what it might be, some people commented that it'd never be able to beat a top player, the game was just too complex. Then Google announced the AI had beaten the top world player in every game, several months earlier.

We're the transition between biological evolution and technological innovation. From us, there is no further biological development. Biological life is tied to the planet that birthed it, and we'll all die with our planet in a few billion years. Our technological children will scatter over the universe for trillions of years to come.
