Define AI.
- vouaobrasil 3y agoThis isn't a math quiz. For practical purposes, we can start with a list of technologies that are clearly harmful. Generative AI like ChatGPT, AI image generators, AI text generators that write something based on a prompt, etc. all halted.
- usr8new 3y agoUntil when? The only way to avoid societal impact of AI is to either stop it for decades until we reach some utopia UBI state or lobotomize current generative AI to a point where it's useless.
- vouaobrasil 3y agoPersonally, I believe generative AI should be lobotomized as you said. After pouring over all sorts of possibilities, I think no good will come of it.
- evilduck 3y agoLlama and Stable Diffusion have proliferated already. Many countries view this as an arms race. Propose a plausible way to put the AI toothpaste back in the tube, because this stance seems profoundly impractical.
- singpolyma3 3y agoWhy would you want that? What is "clearly harmful" in your view?
- marcinzm 3y agoChange scares people. This has been the case for every single technological invention including writing. Predicting the transformative impact of a technology is nearly impossible (or sci-fi writers would have a better hit ratio) but thinking about how it will break what we currently have (versus what will replace the current status-quo) is fairly easy. Accepting ones own limitations and inherent ignorance about the future is something many people very much do not want to accept.
