'exposes "minors to absolutely unsuitable answers compared to the their degree of development and self-awareness."' So do (certain) books. That's another issue right? If you let your minor access stuff, they.. acces

Yes, they added a dialog saying "we care about your privacy" and you said "SURE!".

And I get it and usually agree. Some things are dangerous, like toxic materials I don't know about and cannot know about. I expect some agency to protect me, because in this domain I am too stupid. Oh wait.. the whole world is not a de

This would be more believable if giant companies weren't already choking on every detail of every part of our lives just because you put a checkmark somewhere. Going after OpenAI seems like a move to pretend to still be relevant.

The user is doing it. They are literally typing it. They are consenting to this. We don't need "watchdogs" "protecting" us from stuff we want to do ourselves.

If that was all they were doing, sure.. but if they wrote language parsers, understood computing from the nand-gate up and worked their way up and down the stack over-and-over.. these types of guys will blow past all of us. The understand

My first encounter with GPT-3 messed me up too. Interesting. I'm all over the place with this. Some days I think it's no big deal, but sometimes I'll get angsty about it. Today, for example, I'm using it to generate some

I don't think humans can do this either. What's the problem with producing a result and then fixing it? It's exactly how we do it.

You have a patent on having a button on a phone?

I guess you are right about AGI. I think (hope) that is still off in the distance. We’d have other problems than scaling crud apps, I think.

I understand, thanks for the clarification. What I like to add is that our reality is a competitive one. If everybody can say “do this general thing”, what is the competitive edge? It’s all relative. We as humans are not just in the busines

If the machine is that clever I would worry about other things. You definitely wouldn't need to ask anything of it anymore. Besides maybe.. "make all these entrepeneurial types obsolete." Poof!

by SanderNL 4y ago
That just.. doesn’t work that way. Edit: besides, if it could work you lose the competitive edge. I could describe a much faster more cost effective system which the machine can implement. And we are off to the races again..

What makes us think that encoding all functionality using natural language is somehow more compact than using code? Sure, describing a website with a button is easy, but I don’t quite see how you would describe Kubernetes or a device driver

Think 50 LLMs with different personalities and focus points talking to each other, mixed with stuff like Wolfram. You can instruct them to “invoke” tools. An outside system parses their “tool use” and injects results. You can get quite craz

Do not underestimate the enormous amount of dysfunctional logic in the non-dev population. You don”t code what they ask, you code what they need. That doesn’t change with AI, it gets worse.

You did not answer a single thing and maybe I am those things. You don’t know me.

If you “sample” this enough to be reasoning in a general manner, what is exactly the problem here? Magic “reasoning fairy dust” missing from the formula? I get the argument and I think I agree. See Dreyfus and things like “the world is the

What makes you so sure we are capable of it? Gut feeling? How do you reason, exactly? This answer is worth billions so why not enlighten us. You don’t know? But you feel you have “it”, this magical substance, this substrate of reason itself

To me it is most useful when I have a singular issue with a bounded piece of code. Like a method, a single algorithm. A nasty SQL query too sometimes. I don’t use if often (once a day maybe) but when I do use on problems I know it is good a

A lot of people are messing around with React and web-dev in general where you can fuzz component logic until it kind of looks OK. I can see that working out. If you want to do anything new or - god forbid - know of a better way to do thing

I think so too. I see room for different types of AI having a seat in this "collaborative structure" as you say. I think I'm going to call companies that from now on by the way. Some AIs can specialize in "prompting&quot

AGI is not human intelligence. Cats are generally intelligent for example. A cat level AGI is worth billions. Humans certainly have context windows. Try asking your CEO about some lines of code in your work. Humans have a fairly large one,

With LLMs you say “you want to do X” and voila, personality. What is indeed missing from current implementations is continuous looping. Doing actions and taking stock of the results. I guess that’s kind of expensive right now. We’ll get the

I don’t remember Google being this interesting. Ever. It was a good service and very useful, but nothing like this. It was not astonishing. The tech was mildly interesting, but most of all very useful.

I think what we call "role-play" might be more integral to intelligence than we tend to give it credit for. Now I think of it, a "job description" could be a good prompt. If you start with a CEO-like job agent, that can
