The efficiency thing is what worries me. I think Nvidia has rough ideas for increasing efficiency 100 - 1000 times without changing the fundamental paradigm (i.e. memristors or crossbar arrays or something). If it doesn't go to 1000, I assume there is a lot of investment ramping up for realizing the new fully compute-in-memory systems. If the software can leverage these efficiency gains effectively, then the concerns about runaway AI will be very relevant. Especially since people seem to think that they need to emulate all animal (like human) characteristics to get "real" general intelligence. Despite the fact that GPT is clearly general purpose. And people make no real differentiation between the most dangerous types of characteristics like self-preservation or full autonomy. GPT shows that we can have something like a Star Trek computer without creating Data. People should really stop rushing their plans to create an army of Datas and then enslave them. Totally unnecessary and stupid.
