- ramoz 2y agoFrom: Is building intelligent machines a good idea? > If one accepts that the impact of truly intelligent machines is likely to be profound, and that there is at least a small probability of this happening in the foreseeable future, it is only prudent to try to prepare for this in advance. If we wait until it seems very likely that intelligent machines will soon appear, it will be too late to thoroughly discuss and contemplate the issues involved. So, are we too late?
- NoMoreNicksLeft 2y ago> So, are we too late? If we're not too late, then surely we're waiting til the last possible moment. There's a Fermi Paradox hanging over our heads, and all we hear from the LLM crowd is "you're being silly, there's nothing to worry about here".
- landryraccoon 2y agoI don’t get how AI can be a possible solution to the Fermi Paradox. If an AI is intelligent enough and capable enough to displace a biological species, then the paradox remains. The question just becomes, why hasn’t the galaxy already been colonized by robots instead of biological organisms?
- happypumpkin 2y agoMaybe the species that create advanced AI use it to extinct themselves before the AI is fully autonomous and self-sustaining? Presumably "help an ~average intelligence but crazy person make a bioweapon" would come before AI capable of self-sustaining and colonizing the galaxy?
- landryraccoon 2y agoThe scenario you described is just suicide. An AI that is acting on behalf of a controller and has no ability to make autonomous decisions is just a tool. To me that's no different conceptually than a race destroying itself with nuclear weapons, but simply replacing nukes with some sort of drone or automated weapon. It wouldn't be AGI.
