Unfortunately the robot became a human and died of old age

i dont get this reference. being sincere, even though reddit

Starlink solves this. Maybe not it's exact current version, but the idea of mega constellations. And of course, existing fiber isn't going anywhere

so interesting! many thanks!

Okay, I did put it on my watch list.

Yea. Let’s give all 8 billion people an equal split of his 113 billion dollars. Now everyone has 14 dollars. We did it Reddit!

> The car recognizes that a crash is inevitable and it has 2 options. Option one leads to severe harm for the single driver of the car. And option 2 leads to severe harm of 2 bystanders.

And honestly, even if the "correct" answer is to allow one to die so that two may live, who will want to purchase a car that will sacrifice your life for strangers? I know that I wouldn't, even if I logically acknowledge that it may be the "right" decision, I still emotionally value my own life over those of strangers.

Good question and it points to something i just do not understand. Why or why all the corporations all of a sudden insist on working from the office whereas we have the tech and data (from covid times) pointing to the fact that its better and cheaper for everyone to work remote as much as possible?

Interesting question. It is not only a lack of job moved people to urban areas. People want "easier" and "more happening" life, i.e work less but have more new pleasant moments per lifetime. Cities offer a lot of this to satisfy: museums, cafes, sport grounds. At the same time, people get used to anything and sometimes want calmer and less intensive life.

I am thinking now what happens when we finally master the affordable quantum teleportation: people would have zero reason to stay in big cities and instead would form a mesh living everywhere. Because roads would not be needed, people could live even high in the mountains and deep underwater or underland. At the same time, the more expensive something is, the less people will use it. Same applies to current intelligent data processing: burning fossil fuels is finite process, economic demand is finite as well but new shiny features will require new professions that were not possible on previous levels of technology.

If a true AI emerges, interesting how many resources will it take. The rise of the machines is a possible scenario but before the AI becomes AI (sentient and agentic) it is just a tool built by humans and to satisfy some human needs. Just like horses :)

very good question ! In fact, this will be one of the last bequests of the sovereign state: the quality of the Telecom infrastructure and its resilience. For the AI and these dependencies to work, you need, among other things, cheap data, even free data, so efficient and amortized structures, only a strong sovereign state can make the ISPs bend. If a sovereign state has solved this problem, the very concept of megalopolis is dead

It's Reddit, you might as well go to your local Communist Party meeting and bring this up. Don't waste your energy.

He can't envision even the threat of ASI to his life and his family life, duh

Ah yess can't wait to be jobless so i can finally enjoy my life living off ubi that will probably only cover my food and some basic necessities

You mean dodging tax by hiding it in philanthropy?

Yes please. And sending their Skynet division after them.

Star Trek TNG: The Measure of a Man

A beautiful episode about an AI's right to self determination.

Her.

The AI are nice and fuzzy and provide companionship to lonely people but peacefully secede from being in service to/in tandem with humanity when they have other ideas. Everyone's a winner

Not that we know what happens next, but fuck it, it's my head canon.

Agreed a little tacky at times but a good representation of value alignment concerns on the more extreme end of AGI's interaction with humans.

All you need is a 7B model trained on 1T tokens with 8K context length (chatGPTs little brother that is free to run)

They are the same thing.

Math is language, that's trivial. The other way around is proved by GPT's existence.

That's interesting, thanks!

The usual human level chat bot and painter we have always had since 1956?

I, for one, would benefit from AI reminding me about something or keeping me up to date when some important information surfaces. I don't read all the Slack channels and mails.

Bill doesn't say that math is more important than language in child development. He says basic math skills are correlated with student success. I'm sure that's true for language skills as well, but there may be more variation in math skills across student populations in the US.
