This blows my mind a bit...I mean, what if we get stuck in endless loops of doing stuff because the AI suggested it? Imagine a "reply for me" mdoe in slack where the model does the things you listed...but what if the original message came from someone else's model? Then where did they get their instructions from? You can imagine some insane far future where product features are getting launched, blog posts written, services deployed and no-one is quite sure who is responsible for it all.
- NumberWangMan 3y agoThis is where I imagine things are going for humanity, and it's why I'm terrified. Extrapolate from a single company, to all companies (as those that don't turn over power to AIs will lose out to those that do -- it's a collective action problem) and eventually human activity is just all the AIs doing stuff and us trying to understand or keep up, and eventually giving up. We try to stop them and are prevented and they end up using more and more resources, and the rest of life on earth just ends up extinct.
