you laughed? I put my head through a wall... It seems like AI is the new stem cell in terms of public attitudes towards the research. It isn't just lay people.

It seems like AI is the new stem cell in terms of public attitudes towards the research. It isn't just lay people. Elon Musk seems to have no idea what a neural net actually is and he is funding a private AI lab!
- backpropaganda 9y ago"It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it!" In Elon's case, it's brand/profit/investments instead of salary.
- aoeusnth1 9y agoElon is certainly not worried about the insect-level neural networks we have now. Have you read or engaged with the arguments in Superintelligence? Elon has. Your limited knowledge of the arguments behind AI-risk is more pathetic than the uninformed lay-person's enthusiasm or irrational fear, because you pretend to know what you're talking about.
- svalorzen 9y agoWhat limited knowledge? Just because some people like to play pretend with their sci-fi fantasies of AI omnipotence and omniscience with no energetical nor temporal limitations doesn't mean that researchers that actually work with the concepts at hand must engage with such crazy arguments.
