Do majority of humans need AGI?
It seems the future of humanity is being decided by a bunch of folks with GPU.
AGI will have a potential to disrupt ordinary daily lives of humanity and other animals. It may have lots of undesirable effects on other humans.
Most humans might not even like the GPU folks consider cool.
So the question is who gets to decide the comfortable future of our children and grandchildren?
- dougmwne 3y agoToday we just passed 2C of warming. So possibly we very much do need AGI.
- dave4420 3y agoI don’t follow the logic. How does climate change increase the need for AGI?
- nothrowaways 3y agoAGI is unforseen it might even think humans are the force behind the warming, which they are. Other animals don't pollute like humans.
- dougmwne 3y agoWe certainly don’t seem capable of solving climate change on our own. If we built an aligned AGI, we could just have it invent cold fusion for us.
- dave4420 3y agoWho is “we”? It seems just as likely that an AGI would be put to work persuading us that climate change was nothing to worry about.
- nothrowaways 3y agoThe people.
- dave4420 3y ago“The people” are not building an AGI, mostly don’t have the skills for it.
- nothrowaways 3y agoIn the eyes of AGI humans will be a liability.

- nothrowaways 3y agoAs per my understanding AGI is general intelligence that can replace and outsmart humans in so many roles.
