It's very clear that a strong AI/AGI would vastly surpass all humans combined. We've already seen shades of this with Chess AIs(all humans combined still can't beat a 3000 elo chess engine e.g.), hell even Kasparov vs the world showed showed us that the rest of the world combined can't even match a single high end human.
>I think going forward we're going to need much more clarity about what "superintelligence" really means.
This was already well defined by Bostrom in 1997: "An intellect that is much smarter than the best human brains in practically every field, including scientific creativity, general wisdom and social skills"
>Currently it seems like AI is essentially mimicking collective human intelligence, which means it is probably constrained at that level, as that level is the source.
There are no indications at all that it is constrained to that level.
- NumberWangMan 3y agoI would add the caveat that Chess is a game where the nature of the rules mostly eliminate any advantage of numbers, which is not necessarily the case for other sorts of competition. I'm still quite concerned about the risk of rogue AI, as it's not even necessarily true that humans will have the advantage of numbers, or be able to bring our numbers to bear. And a smart AI will try to divide us and conquer, if it comes down to a conflict, including recruiting humans to its side.
