Don’t compare it with sociopaths. See it as an autistic machine, same as with ASD, they can learn about cognitive and emotional compassion. It’s build/invented by autistics, so it’ll work quite similar.
Started off well, he definitely gets the size, scope, and implications of artificial general intelligence (AGI); but went off the rails midway. How do you control something thinking and creating beyond your ability and comprehension? Can you tell someone to think only specific areas, and to never have a thought or idea about others? It's an absurd idea. You either restrict its access to information and limit its ability, or you give it access, in which case it will get away from you very quickly. Moreover, good luck trying to limiting such a power like AGI, especially with the ongoing (and upcoming) wars. It will only be drawn underground. Look how nuclear armament is going, and multiply that with at least a thousand. If nothing else, USA's ridiculous international relations attitude of "you can't have weapons, only we can, because we are the good guys, so stop developing anything, and get rid of all you have, but we'll hold on to ours" in combination with the absolute disregard to treaties and conventions (admittedly this is more widespread than just the USA) make it impossible to have a diplomatic solution or international cooperation in this environment of distrust. For an even simpler example, refer to the "we'll cut emissions, but you go first" nonsense that has been going on for years; and then come back to claim with a straight face that people will pull together and cooperate if it's an issue that affects all of us. On an unrelated note: I sincerely do not understand why everyone is bashing on Elon Musk. First everyone loved him, and thought he was the savior, which was unwarranted; and now everyone hates him, and thinks he is ruining the world, which is still unwarranted. Nothing even changed from then to now. Fry is explicitly saying Musk would be against regulating AI, but I guess he missed any and all conversations Musk had about AI, where he is a strong advocate of regulation and even limitation. Bunching Musk with Zuckerberg is ridiculous to me. Both because of their diametrically opposed attitudes towards privacy and free speech, and even more so, because Musk took over Twitter, or now X, just a few years ago. My view is that he improved it significantly in terms of inclusion, diversity of opinion, and freedom. If anyone should get bunched with Musk and get shit about Twitter is Jack Dorsey.
no question Stephan is a very intelligent Man, right up until he calls Harari one. Harari is one of the most obvious pseudo intellectuals of our time. So let's cut to the chase shall we? What did Stephen just boldly advocate for, because he identifies as an 'atheist'? I'll give you One guesses.
AI destroyed my music career. I will never email my former friend who did that. He covered my song using AI to fake a lead vocal. I am disgusted, betrayed and real. hurt. I will not answer his emails. he might not even be my actual human friend. i trust nothing now, and will delete all my files from all social media and never make music again.
Don't lose hope. There are two kinds of men, those who adapt and those who stay behind. Adapt and overcome and you'll see very very quickly how easily you left your friend in the dust. Ai in it self is ok, with human assistance it's good, but in hands of an expert it is revolutionary....Be the expert guiding it!
What a joyful speech from dear old Stephan. I wonder when AI will be able to replicate his wit?
Fascinating
The increasingly power-hungry Data Server Farms will test the very limits of our ability to accept " Power Sharing ".
I was hoping he was going to reveal at the end that the whole speech had been written by GPT-4, then run out screaming ‘it’s over, it’s overrrr!’
absolutely, instead of us talking about technology, it is tech talking about us. 😂
All you academics are REDUNDANT 👍
Likely will be, but what you’re manifesting is called fanaticism. It’s the predisposition of the narrow minded & the easily bored.
Fry is a good bloke, but he's no douglas adams

Well, Facebook has become the least engaging software. Let me tell you. It has become an advertising board and a place where misery is abundant.

Humans are NOW THE SECOND MOST INTELLIGENT SPECIE ON EARTH 😢

You sound unhinged anyway. Probably for the best.
