he may have deleted it but… around 2020 or so there was starting to be a lot of hype about llms. elon musk responded to a “doomer” on twitter saying that he “didnt see the potential for that” referring to LLMs achieving AGI. it was a 100% d

hallucinations are literally the finger in the dam. if these models could sense when an output is well-founded and simply say “i dont know” otherwise… say goodbye to your job

what if india had programmers that were just as good? that would be a more apt comparison to what we will be facing in the near future. an alien country where the supply of programmers is infinite and they are better than any human. i bet f

i believe that this man just asked you what will happen in 2 years, with ai that is more advanced, not about today and todays limitations. this conversation would seem unimaginable to someone just five years ago. you are refusing to confron

in a world where human labor is worthless, moats and other nonsense will be the last of anyones worries. you can take that to the bank whipper snapper

you are objectively wrong because you dismiss out of hand the possibility that AI will not continue to improve. the heuristics are against you and you have no reasoning or evidence behind your assertion that we have already hit the ceiling.

the AI will happily do all that for you…

circular argument. literally “heres why you will regret it: 1) you will regret it” lol. nobody will regret firing their high-salary programmer within a year or two. its over. what happened to all the enthusiasm for the idea that technology

AGI and AI weapon systems lead to certain annihilation of the human race regardless of who is first to implement. the only winner is the country who abstains until the very end because at least that country will perish with its dignity inta

yes, now anyone who points out human obsolescence will be marked as a zizian. would love to see your road map for human labor at zero dollars per hour

the discussion is about what will happen, not the value of human life. even if human life is worthless, my predictions about the outcome of AI are correct and theirs are not

any violence that is adjacent to rationalism will see a media response like this and a healthy dose of astroturfing to support it. the cia is very eager to make rationalists persona non grata because they provide a cultural nucleation poin

correct. there isnt a single well founded argument to dismiss AI alarmism. people are very attached to the idea that more technology is invariably better. and they are very reluctant to saddle themselves with the emotional burden of seeing
