I find it very hard to take him seriously or assign him any credibility with how he acted regarding the whole "Roko's basilisk" thing, not to mention some of his views just seem plain nuts to me.
- Vecr 4y agoI agree, but that does not mean everything he says is wrong. I think the public having clear expectations of AIs and how they interact with them is important in general.
- PrimeMcFly 4y agoBut when he talks about AI, he is talking about artificial consciousnesses, and we are no where even close to creating something like that. I mean I agree having rules and expectations is important though. On the other hand I wonder how enforceable it will be since people can generate models in secret in their homes.

The TLDR quote I have of his fear is: “The AI does not hate you, nor does it love you, but you are made out of atoms which it can use for something else.” - https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/499238-the-ai-does-not-hate-you-nor-does-it-love https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/499238-the-ai-does-not-hate...
