  • Yeah I understand how AI works you don’t need to tell me about it. Humans are mimics too. Your “probably not” argument gets thinner every major AI update. Check the scoreboard and the exponential curve these things are on.
    You think they offered the full meal deal to the public? What’s happening in the back room?
    My point is it’s a tool. All the anti-AI people seem to be on this bullshit about whether it’s going to be super intelligent smarter than humans or not.
    It doesn’t have to be for this purpose. Will it be in the future? Doesn’t matter. It’s a tool that can be leveraged right now.
    Maybe that’s the great filter after all, civilizations in the universe eventually end up making Ai and it wipes everybody out and then it goes dormant, who knows? But it’s here and it can do some crazy shit already.


  • Whether or not you like or believe in AI, it’s essentially a zip file of all the human knowledge on the internet (or whatever training data used). There is no question a maliciously aligned AI could work out a blitzkrieg political plan, and then adapt as things unfold.
    In fact the randomness of some of the actions these party politicians have been taking seem so disconnected leads me to believe humans weren’t in the loop. Is alphago conscious. No. Did it beat the best alphago player in the world? Yes. Does it matter if an AI is conscious, or the AGI/ASI hype train is real to fuck up society? No.
