No one can even say what “that” is that we shouldn’t build. It’s a wholly arbitrary invention, the product of a collective word game that is more apologetics than serious futurology.
- peddling-brink 3y agoThat's partially the point. We may not know it until it's too late. But it doesn't matter. If you gave everyone a button and the warning that pushing it would end the human race, we'd all be dead pretty much immediately. I think it's a given that on a long enough timescale, someone will create AGI and we'll no longer be the dominate race on earth. How that ends, in death, or slavery, I don't know. I do hope that every AI researcher does their work with a small bit of fear of becoming the pet of an AGI.
