I understand the arguments for Anthropic barrelling ahead while simultaneously advocating for pauses and regulation. I also understand how individuals can desire a slowdown but have good reasons to keep working at an AI org. But if everyone

Sorry yeah, I understood that they're not the same company or system, but I couldn't think of any way it could be done (aside from, as you say, parking already on it) so it was nice to see at least one solution.

Ah, that answers something I was wondering about that the article didn't answer, which is how you can lift a car by its tyres without starting already under the tyre and without friction or forcing them to rotate. Looks like the answer

Speaking of Douglas Adams, Starship Titanic would be the perfect game to try reimplementing with a modern LLM. It already runs on a primitive chat AI system.

In a way the intelligence of the AI itself allows them to offload responsibility to the AI. As you say, if one was simply writing software that did all this due to some insane programming decisions you'd be in big trouble.

Funny how in their front-and-centre example of placing an ad, the user wants to build a fence, ChatGPT responds with instructions on how to build a fence, but the ad suggests a small pre-made privacy panel. Why make your fake example show a

It's just a funny little thing but I love how in a world of "megapixel" and even "gigapixel" space images we have here a "multipixel" imaging of planets, due to achieving a resolution of several pixels. Th

Looks like there's no difference in men, but a huge difference in women? What a weird situation.

Discs of this era are frequently marked with a specific, unknown sequence of symbols: FCKGW-RHQQ2-YXRKT-8TG6W-2B7Q8. Archaelogists believe it may have religious significance.

Yeah ultimately society really relies on the fact that most people aren't actively trying to be evil.

I'm surprised how much of the discussion here is taking the angle of "Anthropic pretended this model was soooo dangerous for months as marketing, and it seems like someone decided to believe them!" First, Anthropic was founde

Most people want to spend time with others in the same kind of way they want to eat food or sleep or watch a movie. It just seems to be built in. People who appear to have ulterior motives are treated suspiciously. Some people seem to need

I used to have saving turned on for my MSN Messenger chats back around 2001-2004. I didn't lose them. 10-15 years later or so I had a look through them and the cringe was so powerful that I deleted them all anyway.

I want to share a post from the Red Hand Files blog written by musician Nick Cave, because I think he explains it more eloquently than I could. --- From: https://www.theredhandfiles.com/considering-human-imaginatio... In Yu

I feel sure thechao knows this, and is just joking in both comments here.

When I came across your comment it was voted down to the point of being [dead]. I've vouched for it to bring it back; I thought it was very clever!

Yes indeed, I'm aware of it, though I admit I never finished the whole thing. It did make me notice this situation even more acutely. It's funny that the part everyone quotes from the book (namely the Borges fable and the 'de

Ah, thank you very much for this reply, because I haven't watched Community myself so I didn't realise the confusion between a show that's intentionally about a meta situation vs. ... well what you've written explains my

I don't know if I have a good argument for it myself. I have seen a lot of people saying specifically that they based their {thing} on {prior thing} rather than something from life, but I haven't exactly kept a list. Beyond that i

I have really noticed recently that a lot of modern media (film, TV, videogames, etc) seems much more based on prior media than on the author's experience of the world. Like everything is now operating at a meta level. It's a litt

I'm all for packaging nice reusable libraries, but someone has to actually do it. A lot of them just don't exist (yet).

With the level of ability that AI is at right now, I've found it useful personally to think of it something like a very good search over existing knowledge. Another step up in searchability in the lineage of reference books, stack over

Yeah, look at the parent comment I was sarcastically responding to. Of course top of all that, even if human morals were perfect, it's still a dubious claim.

We'll have to disagree here. My feelings are more in line with Nick Cave's recent essay on AI generated music: https://www.theredhandfiles.com/considering-human-imaginatio...

A superintelligent AI will be safe though, because it learnt its morality from us.
