What do you mean "wants to destroy itself"? Why does it "turn self-destructive"?
The best interpretation I can make is an allusion to how we're designed to be fundamentally unmaintainable (think Twitch's codebase), so living is synonymous with eventual ruin.
Fun biofatalistic fact: some evidence alleges that genes regulate our IQ to keep it within a narrow range, keeping from going too low or too high. :D
So, maybe, by just disabling some regulator gene somewhere, we could all be von Neumanns! But the true fix for all this is to rewrite the genome in Rust.
- irdc 2y agoIt would be fun to speculate what IQ escape velocity looks like. Just how much can we boost those neurons? How many Whetstones can your wetware do?
- shrimp_emoji 2y agoYeah! That's how I'm forecasting the first "superhuman AGI". We don't need a dozen civilizations' training data, either; just enough cheeseburgers. And we have loads of those already. ;D
