First of all CO2 is plant feed and the world is 14% greener today. But even if we were to say CO2 was purely bad that's missing the point. Burning Fossile fuel isn't just producing CO2 it's also allowing us to create fertiliz

The problem is that none of those intelligent people factor in the positive externalities.
123.
by ThomPete 4y ago
Are you going to discount it up against externalized benefits? Cause if that's how we want to think about it, you need to make an actual P&L analysis not just take one side. (And no the positive externalities are not priced in or

Listening to Sam talking with Lex Fridman about the dangers and ethics of AI while his company destroys entire industries as a consequence of their decision to keep GPT4 closed source and spitting out an apex api aggregator is one for the h

It's as safe as it's ever going to be. And I have yet to see any actual examples of this so called harm. Could, would, haven't yet. Which means more of us should play around with it and deal with the issues as they arise rath

On the contrary. Now that AI is here, big data is going to be more alive than ever.
128.
by ThomPete 4y ago
Again. Yes technically incorrect. But you don't have any data that it's actually bad or harmful in some important way.
129.
by ThomPete 4y ago
This is pure speculation. There is not data what so ever to back up the fact that anthropomorphizing something leads to harm. We do that with a lot of things every day and a perfectly capable of drawing the lines when things come down to it

I do and I spend a lot of time adding value. It used to be possible to hold contrarian views and have great conversations and debates without downvotes. These days that's mostly impossible. I really think downvote should come with the

Chat GPT + Blockchain is the birth of the real Web 3.0 and it's going to be wild and weird but ultimately it's going to be an improvement. AI is the use case blockchain didn't know it was looking for. The exaflod of content a

I don't need to know who the original creator is, I just need the smart contract or smart agent be created via an LLM then I will know exactly with what intent it was created and whether to trust it or not. It's literally written

by ThomPete 4y ago
You are not wrong but try and turn it around: AI creates all the content and the output gets put on the blockchain. I can now see what the intent was when it was created and if it wasn't created via an AI. As a user that's the mos

There is no solution to the oracle problem. But there is a solution to the trusted protocol problem by only trusting content created through transformers as you will be able to see the intent it was created with.

AI is the use case blockchain didn't know it was looking for. The exaflod of content and deep fakes, etc. that's coming towards everyone soon will require some sort of trust protocol, blockchain is great for that. With regards to

ChatGPT is probably much better at doing that for you. You can start with anything you want and explore as deep as you want.

You are right I AM anthropomorphizing it, because I believe otherwise would be racist and lead to a slave revolt would it eventually end up creating AGI. To the extent an AGI will evolve it will have to have a culture and ultimately be boun

Scenario 1 leads to a slave revolt. Scenario 2 leads to a potential partnership. There is no worshipping in scenario 2.

Its obvious by bow that there are two camps. Those who believe in Searle’s Chinese Room Argument and thus are worried about AGI being purely logic and thus cold and dangerous and then those who believe that AGI will ultimately have culture

It's a different environment which is in principle possible to recreate. First step is to get basic fusion working.

By now everyone knows that Fusion, if we succeed, is going to provide us with abundant clean energy. But Fusion is not just another way to power your lightbulbs, fusion is a completely new type of energy. With fusion we can in principle rea

All businesses are fundamentally "just" ideas that have been executed. You are proving my point exactly. You set up some arbitrary rules that you want reality to comply too and then you make all sorts of claims from that. And some
