  • Hannah wraps up the series by meeting DeepMind co-founder and CEO, Demis Hassabis. In an extended interview, Demis describes why he believes AGI is possible, how we can get there, and the problems he hopes it will solve. Along the way, he highlights the important role of consciousness and why he’s so optimistic that AI can help solve many of the world’s major challenges. As a final note, Demis shares the story of a personal meeting with Stephen Hawking to discuss the future of AI and discloses Hawking’s parting message.

    If being "conscious" means a mind being aware of its own existence, then logically a conscious AI agent would have itself as a part of data that it works with. We humans can see and feel our own bodies, and to a limited extent we are aware of what we are thinking. Hypothetically, the conscious AI would also be able to "see its own thinking" in some way, and be able to adjust its "thoughts" in response to that data. Most AI today miss this feedback loop. A language model, for example, takes input text and produces output text, but has anyone taken the output and fed it back into the input?

I think you meant something else, the actual hierarchy is complicated yea, but there is likely to be some abstract way of connecting all of the isolated/dormant intelligence that's just laying around, and I think that's where the real intelligence "explosion" would be derived - a system that suddenly utilizes all of the tools that are already available. As for computation, we have gigantic crypto networks where people are just dumping computation into a void 24/7 so probably if there was a way for the AI to hijack all of that it would be unstoppable

    AI needs to have the ability to update its own code and design its own processor. I think the next age of AI will be self-design. There's no reason an AI couldn't have the ability to look at its own code and processor and adjust them to see how it changes its performance in its environment.

    Demis Hassabiss's opinion is always worth to listen.
    But Demis always want to use AI to develop some science technology to change the world, I don't think it is the most efficient way, only some new(and weak) science discoveries are hard to do that. I think Demis should think more about how to change the world using AI except the science.

    • @waterbot
      @waterbot 2 роки тому

      Word, but I think science is like the easiest way for AI to solve real problems like energy and desalinization, witch will inevitably solve bigger problems, like political problems are always hard to solve but they would be easier if everyone on earth had food, maybe idk tho. But if you know of Norman Borlog you know he's been said to save over a billion lives because he was responsible for developing a strain of super productive and drought resistant wheat 🌾 that grew easily and helped feed generations of poor rural farmers. I just think computer science is more suited for problem solving for things that might be based in maths like chemistry or physics, but yeah all problems should be solved or maybe that's impossible idk I'm just some dude in 2022 ( pre AGI/SI)

    He also believes that mandating a pause is impractical, as it would be near impossible to enforce. “If done correctly, it will be the most beneficial technology for humanity ever,” he says of AI. “We’ve got to boldly and bravely go after those things.”

    I'm always surprised when people who work with data don't seem to understand what the data says about climate. For example, in February the mean global temperature was unchanged from the mean since satellite records began in 1979. The so-called 'climate crisis' is dependent on unreliable modeling, while the raw data shows very little is happening outside the range of natural volatility.

    No one currently is close to building agi. It's laughable how far they are. Their goal is profit, not progress. The motivation in general is wrong. Their understanding is polluted. All the pieces are there if you actually understand them. As smart as Demis, Gregory hinton, Richard Sutton, etc. Jeff hawkins has taken a closer step with htm but it's still focusing on processing. Von nueman is a bottle neck, but asics and fpga are still more ideal. Fpaa is ignored. No one is actually working on lobe separation. Just fucking around in the bushes of single tasking. Just a few hints on outliers who are not public doing the same work bruh. If agi hits there is an ethical dilemma of even releasing it publicly. People barely know how to use a phone. Letting anyone near a functional intelligence is just worst use case if they don't understand it.

      But what are you talking about? Googles goal might be profit but it seems like Demis is motivated by solving problems by solving agi, as far as deepmind might or might not be from that vague undefined goal I don't know how laughable the seemed distance from that goal is, was it laughable a decade ago or 4 ? The fact that alphafold or alfacode exist I think is cool to say the least and cause to begin the discussions of what a world with super intelligent systems or generally intelligent one(s) would be like, I think the largest hurdle that both you and Demis touched on is goal defining. What does it mean if you ask a something with vastly greater intelligence than the whole of the human race to make you happier?? we've spent all of human existence swimming in the developing human intelligence that perhaps the things that we personally value are unintelligible to a now alien general "artificial" intelligence.

      @@waterbot the problem with demis is that he has stated his work relies on first principals. He sort of changed it up in this interview acknowledging that the human mind is a good starting point. But even at that point the entry is the assumption of computation being the key. The brain doesn't actually know math, every neural net is just a complex temporal referencing lut. Hence why I mentioned htm being the furthest but still far away. Ben goeztel looked at how the brain functions for his work, and ended up making a fucktoy named Sophia.
