I remember reading a study which determined one basic property shared by people of low intelligence is the inability to reason about hypotheticals. Let me walk through this slowly for you, as you are the one who said this, “ I personally be

That is only part of the reason. Most people believe we live in an universe with regular behaviors, such that observable phenomena, such as consciousness, depend on regular physical arrangements. This is a good reason to believe brains are

I’m happy to supply the low IQ take so that you understand it friend. This whole comment thread is not asserting that uncontrollable superintelligence is the automatic outcome. It is that everyone should agree it is undesirable, hence why I

Are you aware that, conceptually, consciousness and intelligence a priori have nothing to do with each other?

You’re going to pedantic our way into the end of humanity. Why were the computers of 2010 not conscious if the ones of today are? It’s absurd to assert substrate independence, which is the strongest possible assumption here. And it’s not th

The other guy is right. They are as conscious as sand formed into any circuit board with electricity running across them. It is an insane mistake to conflate intelligence with consciousness. Substrate independence is a preposterous assumpti

You should read his later work called I Am a Strange Loop instead of GEB, as this is the author’s preference.

They’re not ever going to be conscious.

I’m guessing the marketing must mean the AI-shops-for-you use case is a pretty big market, much bigger than AI-makes-life-easier.

Well reasoned until the end, where it gets extremely short sighted. They’re not going to be bad at anything you can do in a very short amount of time.

I believe what happens in the aftermath of a capitalist-driven revolution is most people who were climbing the class hierarchy fall back down again and wealth inequality increases. Maybe things will improve in the future, but GP is rational

Nope that will be commodified in short order.

My opinion is that anybody who wants humanity to end is a traitor to humanity. Also I guess GP is your sock puppet else I wasn’t even talking to you. I don’t take your opinions seriously, yes.

You joke, but a bunch of people here actually want that.

Research is salesmanship.

The guy you’re replying to thinks this whole thread is about just any AI so it’s hopeless.

It’s ironic you pearl clutch over the state of US politics but can’t seriously engage with the actual politics.

Your AI utopia requires an independently acting autonomous agent? What is the purpose of that? And you are not seriously engaging with anything I’ve written I’ll add. The definition Bernie Sanders has for superintelligence involves it havin

by GPerson 1mo ago
We can do that without superintelligence. There’s no reason to have an independently acting AI which is out of control.

by GPerson 1mo ago
You actually support an intelligence beyond human control. Yes, you are evil. Anyone who supports anything that will obviously end humanity is evil. Notice I did not comment on pausing AI and I said ‘in principle’.

That’s just a weird rationalization to continue being angry or something. I’ve been there too, but it’s not good.

In his memoir Stephen King says not to write your ideas down since the good ones stick around anyway, and that a notebook is a way to immortalize bad ideas.

I’m not sure about this. Anthropic’s AI constructed complex structures on S^6 and wrote a 108 page paper about it, and a few days later there was already a 250k line lean program claiming to verify it.

You actually think using Google translate in conversation means you understand the language. This is your position.

It sounds like you’re fixated on people on the internet. Lots of people do great things in private.
