    I'm 74 and am so glad to have lived to the see this beginning of AI. I carry in my pocket not only the Library of Congress, but also a tiny wizard to turn a world of facts into real-time useful knowledge. Had I lived in my grandparent's day, I would have been the first to take a ride in a horseless carriage. My Goodness, get aboard! It's going to be a wonderful ride. The challenge is not going to be this AI, but our cleverness in its use.

      Great Sir!
      I'm just 50 and am so so so glad to have lived this incredible and mind blowing period of time.
      I was born in 1973 and I started experimenting with the introduction of color on TV!
      I'm not at your level of experience, but I'm incredibly proud and gratified to have lived in a historical period so full of absolute revolutions and I suspect that we are now only at the beginning of a new insane revolution: perhaps the most amazing of all!
      So cheers and hope we can enjoy as many years and days as possible, to live this fantastic historical period of the human species, as much as possible!

    Chris Anderson asked the right questions, some of which were evidently embarrassing, like "If there is a 1% chance of a Pandora thing in that beautiful box, do you open it?"
    But the box has already been opened, as the outcome from GPT4 goes beyond expectations and intuition. And it's just the beginning.
    OpenAI used to be "open". But then it's been proprietary closed software.
    Thus another question: Should we continue to leave such responsibility in the hands of a few individuals within a private company?

      Here is the rub, to the extent that it has been "open" has put the power of these LLMs into the hands of people eagerly hooking them up with internet access, tasking multiple LLMs to do hacking, phishing, deep fakes, and the rest. Heck, Greg can't wait for millions and millions of such agents (I know he doesn't like that scary word publicly anyway) will be in the hands of criminals, terrorists, etc., not to mention authoritarian governments. But Greg knows full well that AI Tech bros (US companies including Microsoft) have worked with China helping them roll out their "smart cities" where people in real time are tracked and given a social credit score that determines what privileges they do or do not have according to the authoritarian government. These AI Tech bros are all about Utopia for everyone!!!!!!!!

      I rather think that's part of their ethos. The fact remains: even assuming their funding issue had been navigable in other ways (it did not appear to be), going private is what they did and it did supply a safe "womb-like" environment in which to develop. As soon as they had, they went every step but one towards fully socializing it by releasing it as they did, a decision I also agree with it. The inter-social "membrane" for this tech to be viable in a non-zero-sum way must be built by supplying positive outcomes, and for those it is best to start small. The forward momentum will drive itself in a way that personalizes the tech to the people as much as it does the people to itself. I personally don't believe the alignment issue can be exclusively solved but must continually pursued, just as it is with human individuals. None of us know perfect innocence, each of us struggles with our roles in this gamely concept of society. The issue to me is building around that knowledge and using it as a crux to drive moral explorations rather than define them. Emergent behavior suggests it will happen either way, but in the example o provide we have more agency.

    One thing Brockman mentions here that many people miss is the use of ChatGPT as an interface. While it's getting better at working on its own, it's really going to flourish as an interface between the end user and other applications. Soon we'll even see it using robotic process automation for applications that don't have APIs.
    Another thing I'm excited about with these large language models are all the insights to be mined from all the data that was parsed. The models used by ChatGPT are a giant data source full of insights that can be queried with natural language. It can take unstructured data and reformat it as structured data. It can analyze and transform that data and, as Brockman demonstrated, search for insights in that data. We're going to start seeing questions answered that previously were too complex to explore.

    The pandora's box question might have a problem if we think of it as only a single box. If we think about it as 10 thousand boxes, spread around the world, each with a hundred people trying to open them, it might better represent the dynamic.
    It will probably be a wild ride, but forfeiting the advantage of being among some of the first agents to open the box might just pass that role to agents whose intentions you don't know, just adding to the uncertainty.

And while we are all having fun with AI, can I point out a new mine? Its a lot like Bitcoin, and is all you. Your words, expressions, interests, everything you have interest in gets tokenized, and like Bitcoin, well gets mined for profit, all your feelings, emotions, life's difficulties, all become a piece of currency you get nothing for your services, at 6.5 billion people in the world if they all used AI, what kind of a mine does that create? Copyright everything that's you so you have no rights to yourself? Getting kinda Matrixie!!!! How many watts of heat does the human body generate? Would solve data mining farms energy use... How many human DNA were copyrighted without their living owners knowing? Oh yea AI does Medical stuff, more tokens! People consider some how they figured out a way to profit off your mere existence with you realizing it until it's too late...

      I think the lack of free access or free diagnosis by a vet or other pet doctor was the setback that caused it to be a problem for you in the first place. correct me if i'm wrong here.

The main issue is positions in society are occupied by people not enough specialized or qualified in their field. And although talent & staying uptodate with new developments are a must, I believe that veterinary doctors are also under immense pressure. It is one of the most difficult profession because you cannot communicate with the patient. The pets ( especially dogs) hide their pain. Here, the issue is 1) education 2) staying with uptodate developments because science never stops. A new research comes out everyday. 3)general vet doctor licence shall be altered and the licence shall be given more as "internal diseae general pet doctor" , "orthopedy general doctor" .We are expectint too much from the vets. Like human diseases, pet diseases are complicated / even more complicated because pets do not talk and mask symptoms. 4) AI shall be used in Universities maybe by the academicians to save time in preparing cases to be researched or solved. I do not thik humanity is ready yet to use this tool ethically. I am glad that your dog's problems has been solved because as a volunteer I came across with many wrong diagnosises for my pets. My question would be " will AI curb the vets or doctors to perfect themselves" in order to compete and stay in the field. I will try to learn the basics but what is the beauty of any profession if you present it as your work.....I find beauty in using one's own brain or study. Such a complicated issue because I also understand people who are willing to develop it because they are most of the time also fed up with wrong decisions , diagnosises in science field .

    It's all incredibly complicated. First, the demonstration part about what's new about this machine was pretty dull. I understand that he's probably protecting the company's biggest secrets and some of the most advanced news, but what he showed is not that fascinating, at least for me. Secondly, although this technology certainly opens up a lot of new, fantastic possibilities, on the other hand, in addition to the obvious ethical and moral problems, there is also the problem of one small group lobbying, getting rich, and gaining all the power. As usual. His optimism may be 'cute' for some but I didn't chuckle when he said 'no one wants to read the whole book' nowadays. No, some of us actually do, and this is how humanity advances, still, and did in the past, including him. Writing and reading are the foundations of the whole process of learning.
    A lot of people will lose their jobs because of this thing, and there will be even more depression in the world and suicide, so an even bigger mental health crisis than now - no doubt, yet we can't even resolve this current one.
    But of course, neither he nor his colleagues and a very small group of various CEOs, rulers, politicians, and lobbyists will lose their jobs or power, nor money, on the contrary - they will only gain. Because even if AI would be able in the end to replace him/them, the creator, as all human experience, arts, etc predicted a long time ago, he still will have way more knowledge, power, and money to change it in time, before it happens, or just run away wherever, if it does. The rest of us, no matter the level of knowledge of AI that we will be able to gain from open sources, won't ever have the same resources as him.
    Read about the bunkers of the super-rich that they all had built for themselves in the case of an apocalypse. It may sound ridiculous, like from a cheap, American, cliche action-catastrophe movie, but it's really true, and I have no faith in the good intentions and humanity of even the best ' most ethical' of these CEOs because I know how the world and our species work. All the empty talk about how respectful, full of love and goodness, and morality, you will be in the face of an existential threat is great until it actually happens. Generations of my family actually saw what 99,99% of people do, when faced with unimaginable evil and impossible choices during World War II in Poland. And I'm not betting on this CEO and the current world leaders being that 0,01% of heroic ones.
    My view may sound cynical, dark, and bitter to some, but I just have no illusions anymore, I live too long in this world. All this talk about controls and guidelines, but it will end, as usual, that the obscenely rich will be even richer and the poor poorer. This trend continues in the 21st century, and this is actually a real problem.
    And I'll warn the attackers right away: I'm not a fan of communism or an opponent of capitalism, hard work or success, not at all, quite the opposite, as a Pole, I saw with my own eyes, how communism ruins countries and societies (like any totalitarianism). However, I am opposed to the accumulation of insane fortunes at the expense of others, and in a dishonest way, which is absolutely what is happening now more than ever with many of these billionaire CEOs, only of course they prefer to show off cheap PR tricks to the public rather than have a real discussion and solve the problem.
    As someone here suggested in the comments earlier, maybe all CEOs should be replaced by AI CEOs soon. But this also does not solve the problem at all, because behind all AI there will always be the same narrow, privileged group plus governments.
    And we really need to talk about this particular part because AI will change the whole economic system forever.

He's going to carefully craft every statement in an attempt to convince us of that idea, regardless of whether it's in our best interest. Here, he's attempting to manipulate us by focusing on one truth while neglecting a more important truth.
      Yes, we'll figure things out faster. But the problem is that it becomes a race against the clock. Our ability to respond to a threat is biologically constrained. AI does not have the same constraints. We'll move faster, yes, but it may be hopeless compared to the acceleration of AI. If we slow down AI from the start, yes it will slow down our response, but it will slow down AI more. We need to ensure that humans at least have a chance of keeping up.
      Consider this analogy. Imagine we have some infectious disease in the lab, and we know it's very powerful, but we don't fully understand it. What gives us the best chance of preventing it from wiping out humanity? Is the answer to mass produce the disease in a factory and start releasing it in every major city center and airport in the world, in a race to infect as many people as fast as possible, and just pray that all the scientists on earth will come together fast enough to save humanity?

    Now, since the development has already arrived, it is not much astonishing that it has provided to me because it is the normal trajectory of computer science where I am also in the field of Machine Learning. My mentor Mr. Jacque Fresco once said: 'The history cannot be stopped by anyone!' Yet the problem remains, though he is my favorite guy who has changed my life journey. What I am thinking about is that if everyday natural things are most likely to be automated, then where is the location of the human brain, based on the beginning of this video, I heard "This A.I. model takes over your everyday trivial" I also learned about how human will naturally feel hunger, the process of preparing food is a vital stage in order to suppress over-eating, because we enjoyed it, the preparation. If everything comes automatically, the brain gets degenerated for sure. I know you will tell me human beings can start participating in other wonderful facets. But the feeling is not the same. It is normal to do some of the trivial yourself and they are beneficial to your personal health. So, I hereby call to not deprive the natural feelings of humans, rather, we should put automation in other aspects, such as Industrial activities, and dangerous environments. Furthermore, regulation must be made before this kind of program is really put into the actual world, before it gets connected to the "military network"!!! REMEMBER IT!!!!

    One important question to Greg would be what set of people are providing feedback at present and how do you ensure that it encompasses a diverse set. Because the tool is being used by technology enthusiasts primarily, there is a fear that the algorithm is learning in one dimension. And without taking into account that diversity, we might put it on a path where it only gives one answer (or one type of answer) to a prompt - whereas, the answer only satisfies one particular way of thinking about a problem.

We’ve integrated them into our finances and government which is really all you need to be able to get to a wider audience. AI will most like be that next step in our evolution and the diversity of the data has no other choice but to broaden. Because it will always need more data to improve and after a certain point, these development companies will stop being picky with the data they feed into it.

    Ok so an entire TED talk basically to introduce the public with the fact that ChatGPT is now apparently allowed to write and run its own Python code; you could have started with that. First time in my life where I watched a TED talk about exciting new tech and felt anxious and afraid for the entire length of the talk as opposed to feeling optimistic and inspired. Scary stuff

      Absolutely. Even the theoretical benefits are not actually so beneficial if you really think about it.

      @@DirtBikes_MathGarden Since you're on this website, with an account, how can you claim you are worried about data privacy of OpenAI? Alphabet needs very few things you know. From the searches you make, and the analytics that they provide for many websites. And since their ads are on many sites, they can also track where you go. The same goes for many of the other major tech companies. Every "free" thing on the web is paid in some way - usually that's with the metadata that represents your interests, views, state in life etc. It's much more tech-savy and risky to browse the web in a private way, and many of the conveniences become virtually unreachable. I think that speaks very well to the limitations of a non-profit Internet.

    I'm glad we get this talk in a time where people are nearly afraid of AI. Incrementalism is what really spoke to me as being the "safety rail" that can fine-tune what we need it to. AI isn't suddenly going to gain awareness this way. The question about Pandora's box also seemed way too polarizing. It's not about whether AI destroys us or gives us a utopia, but the middle road. We have to remember that stifling this technology will not help us in the long run, someone is going to figure it out for better or worse. That someone may as well be all of us.

    It's funny to see that there are so many people who watched this and thought that our future with GPT would be all sunshine and rainbows. Can't wait to read your comments after you watch Eliezer Yudkowsky's TED talk.

    Did you ever question how the AI might influence the life of its human 'outsider victims'? Or don't you care?
