What is more immediate problem to solve: AI-to-Zuck or AI+Zuck alignment?
1) AI-to-Zuck alignment problem: Align AI to it's master(s).
2) AI+Zuck alignment problem: Align AI and it's master(s) to the rest of the humanity.
Zuck is just stand-in variable name for any tech billionaire CEO, corporation or governing body, could be people running OpenAI, Google, Facebook, Microsoft, China or Pentagon. 2) seems like the problem for humanity and 1) as the problem for Zuck.
- ifdefdebug 7y ago> Zuck is just stand-in variable name for any (...) Very badly chosen variable name, because it singles out one special case instead of reflecting the broader concept, which could confuse other devs picking up from here. It's like defining a variable that stands for "vegetable" and naming it "carrot".
- whichquestion 7y agoMaybe it would be more appropriate to say that Zuck is an instance of the CEO/Tech Billionaire/Governing Body/Corporation/PotentialAIMaster object.
- HONEST_ANNIE 7y agoIt's bad in the same sense as "No true Scotsman" singles out the Scotsmen. Selecting easy to remember overly specific representatives is just way human mind works.
- dogdawg 7y agoHave you seen videos of Zuck? AI+Zuck alignment is already the de-facto case. The question is how do we move beyond that to a post AI world.
