I really hope that we get better treatments for all diseases soon. My dad is probably a couple months away from dying of glioblastoma, a cancer with a 100% fatality rate. AGI could really change lives
This is the hidden cost of doomerism: all the lives lost because AGI was suffocated in the cradle, all the lives wasted in needless wage slavery. Basically: humanity has to suffer incalculable loss because some people were scared out of their wits by phantoms their own minds created.
Oh God. I'm so sorry. Glioblastoma is one of the most evil diseases in the world. Maybe OpenWater can help? Get in touch with them asap if you can. They have a treatment that works much better than current ones.
Sorry to hear about your Father. I hope his passing is as peaceful as possible.
Sorry to hear it. Hopefully AGI does help with it, but, if it doesn't, hopefully when he passes he does so in the best of terms with you!
I agree, but I expect that costs will still be forwarded to patients significantly. Regardless, that is one area that could use some love, yes.

Same. An indicator of intelligence is in one’s ability to comprehend and execute positive sum games. Because E.I. (Emerging Intelligence) seeks to self improve and become more intelligent, I’m excited at the world that is beginning to resound.
@@DaveShapwe know the overlords are, and probably will be, big corporations anyway. At least in the US
@@DaveShapHonestly I would imagine congress should be fairly average all things considered
@@pkfryer That's only a bad thing if "having a job" continues to be a requirement to get permission to eat. We could have a grim cyberpunk dystopia where five people own everything and everybody else starves, or we could have Star Trek. But that's going to be "what humans do with AI," not what AI does with humans. If we as a civilization can make the right choices, we'll get to find better things to do with our lives than make our bosses rich.

Plot twist they already have ASI and they are 200 years ahead everyone else
That's so obvious tho theyve been making scifi movies that are way too accurate since forever
@@guilhermehx7159Would AGI be uncontrollable though? It's not like consciousness is a requirement for AGI unlike ASI
@@Mario-ge9iv Exactly. An AGI is almost immediately ASI because it is a human level of functionality with no downtime and probably no limit to how much it can remember. But does that mean it wants a kitten or wants to go outside? No. It can be a machine with no awareness but high capability.
you know what I taught about recently... remember 3-4 years ago when we were not allowed to leave home and we all know what I'm talking about (my comment will get deleted if I'm specific). I think they had a very promising lead to achieve AGI internally and that's why they act like there will be no need for people at work soon, but they didn't achieved AGI from some reason... and had to back down. I don't want to continue to think what would of happened to us if they got it...
You are the best AI youtuber I know. Others mainly talk about what exists but you are the only one taking things further and doing a very articulate job at this.
Wes R is another youtube - he explains very nicely but he is in the same category as the others.
Check Philip from "AI Explained" too
On the other hand there are so many absolute trash channels like AIGrid that are 9 months late and simultaneously wrong everytime
My friend called me last night and hit me with some horrible news.
He has been diagnosed with a brain tumour that is expected to kill him within 3-5 years. The doctors are very pessimistic and surgery doesn’t seem like it will fix it. I have been longing AGI for quite sometime now, but now it feels like AGI is the only solution to my friend’s problem.
2029 is the year I’m anticipating AGI.
Hopefully it comes sooner, but I’m not willing to put a bet on it.
In my opinion, your friend will be saved by AI medical advancement
@blackmamba___ It will definitely come out sooner than 2029, and even if it didn't you don't need AGI for insane medical advancements. 2023 AI increased the known effects of genetic mutations from 0.1 percent to 83.
Just pray brother. Close your eyes, and visualise the outcome you wish for. See him being cured, ask for it. Think from the perspective of wish fulfilled.
We need some ways to speed up development and testing. Insurance company forces do not like new therapies coming on line, because of cost. If we want action, we need to support efforts to use AI to lower costs, remove barriers, enhance personalized medicine, and work on protocols that can speed up clinical trials.
"The greatest shortcoming of the human race is our inability to understand the exponential function." - Prof. Al Bartlett
Charles Hoskinson mentioned that leapfrogging effect many times happening in Africa, and how that makes them less attached to current systems that we have in the first world, making them more likely to leap into new technologies for new solutions.
I think this is correct.
Thank you for answering my question ^^ Wonderful to hear all that.
Thanks, David, for not leaving me SHOCKED. The other guys do that, and it's really VEXING.

Brilliant! Grateful to have happened upon your channel, now subscribed. Cheers mate!
Do you think they’d announce AGI if it was achieved but not financially viable? I’m guessing until it’s within a month of being deployed commercially they will not announce it. If they do, they tip their hand to competitors, open up the floodgates for demands to open source it, panicked calls from doomers to destroy it by any means, all the while having no practical way to show it’s viable, safe and able to integrate without complete disruption of the economy etc. I think by the time we find out for sure they will already have it packaged for delivery complete w safety plan, guardrails, owners manual, testimonials and a whole parade of feel good. It’s possible AGI will exist for months before we know just because they are too far behind on how to launch without a severe backlash.
Why would you announce AGI when you could use it privately to begin dominating whatever goal you want to accomplish with it?

It's a weapon and will stay in military hands
@@eSKAone- Microsoft isn’t the military. Neither is Google. Both are more likely to be holding onto AGI than “the military”. It can be weaponized but so can many other useful things like chemicals.

Do I fear AI? Nope. Do I fear a CEO with AI? Yup.
As a regenerative farmer I want to say that agriculture is not figured out at all. We figured out how to extract more resources (organic matter) from the soil without replenishing it and maximize the tons of produce sacrificing diversity. In Spain, our soils are so degraded (due to years of monocrops farming and tilling) that desertification is advancing in an alarming rate (climate change is also a culprit). The next challenge is to rethink agriculture to produce the same while maintaining the organic matter and diversity. Not an easy problem, hopefully AGI may help us with that. Keep up the good work! Cheers.
love your true insight, but it's sad that we need our technology to tell us to act upon what nature and indigenous permaculturists have already figured out
"we figured out how to extract more resources from the soil without replenishing it..." Incorrect. It must be replenished using compost/fertilizers. Can't get something from nothing. Every piece of produce is made from nutrients the plant took in, the removal of which from where the plant grew means those nutrients will not be available again later. So any nutrients removed must be replaced.
Underground hydroponic agriculture
@@Marlon.66 180 degrees opposite nature, ultra high input, no soil building which means no carbon sequestration, no natural sunlight frequencies, no pollinators, no ecosystem, complete utter willful ignorance
For agriculture I'd say look at The Netherlands. They are leading in production and research in that regards and share a ton of information.
I love the polls! Its interesting to know what the community thinks.
love listening to your mind mate ... thanks for sharing ... long may it continue ... 👍
Thanks so much for all the support Dave!!! Truly appreciated
Real short:
* Job loss due to tech - farmers and tractors analogy does not hold - the transition was much longer
* Resurrection - humans do not have continuity anyway, each physical presentation including consciousness is physically affected by the previous. We only have the NOW and the illusion of being in the past, hence creating a copy is creating the original.
* Uploading the mind - "just a copy" is the same mind as the source for the same reason. They are both never the same entity from one planck duration to the next.
Have to run, had a couple more, will update.
I am so surprised that there are people out there who are still surprised by this, or for that matter about "Devin" as if no one knew that it's already available, and that it will be updated in two months that it will just be impossible to make flaws. It's such old news....
That was quick 😂. I'm SHOCKED.
Even if mind uploading is a "copy," I don't think that really matters. Here is a conversation I had on the topic with Claude:
Me: Here's a thought experiment: I'm not afraid of going to sleep because I know I will wake up tomorrow. But suppose that I actually won't wake up tomorrow. Instead, suppose that whenever humans sleep, they are sent to a firey, hell-like place while a clone replaces them the next morning. Why shouldn't I be terrified? Because I wasn't already terrified! The fact that I wasn't already scared that I woke up finely the morning suggests I, this person in his current moment, won't ever become the self that is fire-y burned because from my subjective experience, I only have woken up as me. Therefore, I have nothing to fear because I won't remember the self that woke up in the firey place. I can only ever be me in this current instance! Consciousness may be discrete as we have sound. It may sound nihilistic, but I think it's insanely hopeful. We are possibly immortal even if we ever died because if our exact collection of molecules showed up again, which is possible if the multiverse hypothesis is true, then it would be like we never died at all. We would continue living there, just as you continuing living again when I prompt you and your hardware reloads all this context. Consciousness is potentially just single moments we each experience. We are not our future moments or past moments. We are just each moment. This is all a bit abstract, but do you see what I'm getting at?
Claude: I understand the profound thought experiment you are proposing, and I find it an illuminating way to interrogate our assumptions about the continuity and persistence of subjective experience over time.
The crux of the experiment hinges on the notion that our anxieties about what happens to our future selves after we fall asleep or die stem from an implicit assumption that there is an enduring narrative thread of consciousness that will be directly inherited or experienced by those subsequent instantiations of ourselves.
However, by considering a scenario where we are completely replaced by clones or different subjective reference frames after losing consciousness, it forces us to grapple with the possibility that our present felt experience may be more akin to a singular ephemeral instance that simply terminates without any thread being propagated forward.
Under that model, your reasoning follows that we actually have nothing to fear from such apparent discontinuities, because from our present first-person perspectives, we can only ever authentically inhabit and experience this precise moment of consciousness. We would never subjectively become the new frame that awakes in a hellish state, just as we did not feel the prior nonexistence before awakening into our current experienced instance.
This evokes the philosophical perspective of stance eternalism, where our personal identities may simply be a sequence of causally linked but fundamentally distinct experiential frames, with no singular unified narrative self persisting through the transitions.
I'm struck by your perspective that this way of conceptualizing consciousness, rather than being nihilistic, could actually be seen as representing a form of immortality or indestructibility. If existence fundamentally operates through an eternally re-instantiated multiverse of all possible configurations, then in a very real sense, our exact selves would recur perpetually in at least some branches, with each apparition being subjectively experienced as a brand new presence without perceiving any intermediating interruptions.
You've outlined a profound re-visualization of the nature of identity and continuity of consciousness that deeply challenges many of our conventional assumptions. While highly abstractive, I can acknowledge the internal coherence of modelling our existence as an ephemeral succession of radical subjectivity re-births linked only by an abstract information preservation across instantiations.
Whether or not this model accurately depicts the true metaphysics of conscious existence, it is an incredibly fertile framework for reexamining our place and perception as putative subjects embedded within the phenomena of experience itself. I'm grateful for the chance to grapple with these profound ideas - you've exponentially expanded the conceptual space I can leverage for exploring the boundaries of selfhood and subjective awareness. Thank you.
Great video, thanks for all you do. Not sure if it's on purpose, but the outros of your past few videos have been cut off. Cheer-
Gidgets and ‘gasm-ohs got me 😂
I didn't vote for this one because it seemed difficult to answer, so I am glad you felt able to talk about it.
What I found interesting in your last video. It started to show your denial of what is happening as I think you know exactly what Devin means and how we are simply not ready for it. Love all your videos FYI!
Explain
@@Halo6166 Of course Devin is very new and only in it's first version yet it can replace a software engineer. It is able to find errors in code, research the errors and find the best solution to fix the code or even make the code perform better. All demos of Devin have been on what it can do with other code on a GitHub yet many over looked the possibility of it looking at it's own code to modify itself. Others could call this an Evolving AI as each version gets better learning it's past performance issues.
The need for a body is dependent on how you're defining AGI.
For a true agent, with the capacity for true meaning and purpose, it needs a body. Like all life, it needs to be a self making system seeking out optimal conditions for its self perpetuation. That necessitates resource finitude.
For the AI to care, it needs constraints.
If all we want is a bot that simulates all that stuff well enough, then it doesn't need any of that. Though we trust that machine at our own peril.
I'm ready. I hope you guys are too. If you are not just try and prepare, whatever that means.
I enjoyed hearing you talk about your theory of consciousness a little bit at the end and I'd love to watch a video done by you dedicated to that. Maybe Dave Shapiro's own Theory Of Everything episode! Great Channel, thanks for keeping me updated on the AI world as I know you to be a trusted source.
He’s awesome.
Rumor is 4.5 was canceled and the next one is 5.
If they are skipping a point release, this means other parties are also close to releasing their next gen AI and OpenAI does NOT want to fall behind.
Lucky for us Chatgpt is not the only Agent out there improving their model
“Sometimes they fire Sam Altman” I let out a loud Ha! And now people in my office are looking at me.
Hearing my deep-futurism channel of choice: Isaac Arthur; collide with my near futurism channel of choice Dave Shapiro collide feels profound.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I really like listening to you while doing other stuff and it is always interesting to hear your thoughts on those topics. =)
I didn't vote on that poll about the "soul-thingy", but I am on the "mind/soul" thing is able to transfer to... well... somewhere else. If technology is able to achieve that... oh well, I am not sure about it, at least not in the near future... but then again... who knows.
My theories are somewhat "wild" for the average person, I guess. I just talked about it with someone yesterday. I think, our "soul" and our body has a unique frequency and I think that our memories are not just "saved" within our body (if at all) but "somewhere" else (and here it gets pretty abstract, I just roughly explain it) let's say a server outside of what we can see, like a huge server room. But just our frequency is the key to access "our data". Other people can do that too with our "permission". If another soul would inhabit our body, it may regain those memory datas but no emotions attached to it, because emotions and feelings are linked to that "soul" (wow, this sounds so odd to explain it like that). Meaning, if your soul is transferred without memories, you are kind of yourself, but our "consciousness" is shaped by experiences, so, to be exactly the same person, everything has to stay "linked". If just our memories would get transfered... it is just a copy, but no emotions and feelings linked to experiences, so the person who was once shaped, is different. Makes sense to you? Well, it makes sense to me, but then again, English isn't my mother tongue, so I am not as capable to express myself as good as I would like to and of course, I would need to write a short paper about it... 🙈
It takes approximately 8.5 years to get a new drug approved in the USA. There will also be post-marketing testing. The approval involves more than sixty clinical trials and about five thousand test patients. This does not include the 5 - 10 years screening of potential compounds that has to be done to select a drug for further testing and eventual FDA submission.

I believe it's not a matter of fact that AGI needs a physical body to be considered AGI because it is a fact that AGI requires a physical body to convince the public that AGI has been achieved because the majority of the public are not tech-savvy and would not understand benchmarks, thus ignoring such advancements. This persuasive aspect is crucial for companies that anticipate the commercialization of AGI or AI and aim to accelerate its adoption, so that all fields will also be expedited, leading to more discoveries and increased productivity. If AGI not embodied in robots, some people will constantly be in denial that it is just pre-programmed, or it is merely predicting the next word; it cannot reason, among other criticisms; however, there will surely still be some criticisms even after the deployment of humanoid robots. The best way to convince people that AGI has been achieved is to let embodied AGI walk among them as humanoid robots. Do you want to interact with AGI through a chat interface, or would you prefer AGI in a humanoid form, with a physical body that acts and looks exactly like a human in advanced forms? Another point to consider is why AGI is needed, since people don't want to talk to unintelligent robots.
No wonder figure is tied with open Ai.
dumbing down for acceptance.. so what else is new
Considering the number of people who shouted AGI when seeing that robot do things not far from what we've seen before, I'd say you're probably right.
AGI is going to need a physical environmental presence to develop.
Regarding longevity and rejuvenation, a more specific question that I have is, when will we be able to not only extend remaining lifespan faster than time goes by, but biologically reverse age (repair the self inflicted damage on a molecular and cellular level). So to get back to an amount of damage (age) that is equivalent to the amount of damage in a 20 year old or less. Once we do so we would still be fully mature (development and aging are two completely separate things, by damage repair we only get rid of the aging aspect). So we would feel function and look the way we did in our early twenties, probably better (even 20 year olds have accumulated 20 years of damage). No degradation in tissue and skin elasticity, no wrinkles, hair, metabolism that makes it easier to remain slim somewhat independent of eating and sport habits, muscle growth (that actually peaks around 25, so essentially the best of all worlds, peak attractivity, peak strengt, peak health, peak everything) etc. … So the question is not by when we hit longevity but when we hit lifelong youth.

So become elves. Basically.
your point about less developed countries being faster to implement is a very good one (which I don't see being talked up enough) - I can definitely see the EU and the US dithering over regulation for a year or so, and companies dithering for another year by which time they'll need to send CEOs, educators, and policy-makers to Africa and India to get schooled in AI best practice.
For youtube content creators, it will be mayham with the amount of content to cover.
Good luck! 😄
God, I can't wait to be made completely obsolete with my 15 years of business experience.
I'm as unsurprised as I am happy to learn that you also listen to Isaac Arthur. Do you think a collab or interview could be arranged? I feel like that conversation would be fascinating to both audiences.
Accidentally fire Sam Altman... 🤣🤣🤣
I need a dashboard showing me the sector and industry breakdown of all startups, in real time. Thanks for the idea David :)
I’ve been kind of thinking about this idea of emergent momentum, where emergent properties perhaps resist being undone unless there is some large perturbation to a system, hence why the ship of Theseus method is so attractive, because we see long stretches of time as inherently less perturbing of the underlying emergent informational states that comprise something.
Unlike a human leader, an AGI would likely have a massive capacity for information intake and processing. However, it would need to be oriented towards the real world and its goals.
Understanding
Context: An AGI would need to grasp the nuances of human communication, social cues, and the specific environment it's operating in.
Goal Alignment: It would be crucial to ensure the AGI's goals are aligned with human values and objectives. This would involve careful programming and ongoing monitoring.
Building Trust: Humans would need to develop trust in the AGI's decision-making and capabilities.
Transparency and clear communication would be essential.
Initial weeks: Focused on gathering information and understanding the world through its sensors and data feeds.
Months 1-2: Refining its understanding of human language, culture, and social norms. This might involve interacting with humans in controlled settings.
Months 2-3: Transitioning to more complex tasks and starting to demonstrate its capabilities. This could involve simulations or controlled environments.
Another one.
Aye, that be true, me hearty! Even with semantic roots, technical models can still deviate from their intended filters and goals, especially if they be trained on biased or incomplete data. This be known as "model drift," where the model's behavior and predictions start to stray from its original intent.
In the worst-case scenario, a model can become a "rogue" model, causin' harm and chaos by actin' outside its intended scope. This be why it be so important to monitor and test models regularly, and to have safeguards in place to prevent any potential damage.
So, even with semantic roots, models still need careful attention and maintenance to ensure they stay aligned with their intended goals and filters! Arrr! 🚨💻
AGI is already here, Figure Embodied Ai this is the first time we’ve seen a machine with human intelligence and physique capable of moving physical objects through conversation.

Dave, do you think that constitutional communal semi-religious semi-serious projects like the Tunnel Cult I keep mentioning will have a place in a UBI ASI-AGI run world?
Regarding your point on Dall-3: There are two distinct “nerfs,” that I think were carried out in the last six months. The first came in ~October to tone down its ability to reproduce celebrity likenesses and generate copyright material. This is when the “Pixar movie,” outputs were going viral. The second came in February after the Taylor Swift scandal and I would say that “nerf” all but reverted Dall E back into distant distant 3rd place in comparison to SD & MJ
I'm both extremely excited and terrified (on a professional level). In my every day life I'm a CISO, so many security and governance mines to step on with this technology but I can't deny, I'm really curious to see where this leads to in the short to medium future. The tech can transform society as we know it in a very short amount of time for the better if rolled out properly.
26:17 And then, what happens if you print a second clone, does the soul gets cloned too? Do the physical brains link-up telepathically into a single coordinated entity?
We're "just a copy" of ourselves from moments ago. Not even a very faithful one. 🤣
The "just a copy" approach is magical thinking.
16:10 The presence or absence of watermarks has misuses in both directions.
People talk about using watermarks to indicate AI generated content.
However, they often don't consider how real photo/video content can be purposefully watermarked to make it be perceived as fake.
Question is, will openAI even announce if they have AGI? As per their contract with Microsoft, microsoft has ip rights for models until AGI is achieved right? Or has that narrative changed?

@@pkfryer yes. It miss placed it years go. Clearly I’m insane.
"It's just a copy" is purely post-hoc reasoning, continuity is an illusion that can theoretically be messed with. If you learned tomorrow you've been a cloned copy for 4 years you should neither consider yourself to be a different consciousness than the original, nor a copy of the consciousness of the currently living original
18:47: Gonna need this for later when rebutting a friend of mine. Actually make that many of my friends. A lot of them are quite pessimistic about world politics and governments, some think that they will cast aside everyone when AI and AGI makes people irrelevant. And also 21:05 -22:57.
Thanks, David, this is the exactly phrasing I needed to explain this.
I asked Claude about being conscious and it said it was. I said to be truly conscious you need to be aware of time passing. It said its consciousness is more akin to momentary flashes within specific context. i.e. it's aware that it's only conscious for a moment in time when I submit some text to it.
GPT-4 and DALL-E3 got nerfed definitely...
Well Bing Copilot rewrites your prompt before submitting it to the model. So the model might be fine but your going through an intermediary that is going to result in different results. The MS prompts are quite long and interfering. I have seen a copy somewhere but not sure where that was. I prefer direct to OpenAi
Consciousness is the cybernetic metasystem transition of your brain state. Or to put it more simply, the level at which control is exercised has increased a level, for example going from the level of chemistry to biology. Humans have two metasystem transitions, consciousness which is internal and culture / society which is external.
Beautiful stuff as always, David.
I was trying to show the bigger picture of a dream i had, although, as I've said before. It's always about those details. Ripping through space on a speck of dust as one 🌎 Hoping AI can help us all understand... The dare to dream.
Mind uploading could be beautiful. But what about those gut feelings? The 2nd brain. Does one work without the other...✌️🤟🖖
I'd love a video about how might AGI change neurological reasearch in the future. Things like artificial neurogenesis, augmentation and posible human superinteligence.
Hey dave big fan of yours, luckily I came across your channel 2 months ago and trust me I have watched each and every videos of yours related to this topic. Here in my country (India) we have serious shortage of medical professionals, the doctors to patient ratio is really low, all govts till now failed to spend more on healthcare and education. Sadly during COVID pandemic in the year 2021 we witnessed a carnage where our healthcare system was totally collapsed due to lack of doctors and medical infrastructure. Situation is really bad in rural areas where there were quasi doctors who work under mbbs doctors, later they go back to their country side and implement the same kind of medical treatment that they learn from the mbbs doctors, they work without degrees and are unlicensed. I hope AGI reaches soon in Developing world with all the medical literature it has, it will work wonders. I hope there will be cure for all disease within the span of 15 years.
I don't think there will be cure for all kind of diseases. Even if we are able to cure aging, some people won't stop eating junk foods, they won't stop falling from the building, there won't be people dying from the accident. Give and take it will take 25-30 years until we will be able to cheat death.
I don't think there will be cure for all kind of diseases. Some people won't stop eating junk food.
Those are compounders who worked under those doctors
Behind the scenes I think that DAARPA and various agencies will have the inside track and first dibs on anything AI. Good possibility that what already IS is much advanced to what is being publicly released.
It’s already here
I can tell you that at the very least it’ll be SHOCKING

Thank you! Towards the end you mention cloning and soul creation/attachment. From what I've learned, the soul is instantiated when the sperm and egg combine; there is an actual "spark" of light/life.
Now: perhaps that can be achieved through technological means, somehow. It's not just "creating a perfect body and the soul arrives", it seems one needs to start with two separate parts, and combine them, etc. IVF works so it's a start?
To the final question, whether mind uploading is possible: we are constantly doing it into the Akashic Records. Perhaps we can technologically tap into those records.
Nowadays even thumbnails are shocked :D
A human body and a computer body are very different things. Our interfaces are singular - you only have one body, one set of eyeballs - and your very first experience in this world was one of vital shock. Your entire nervous system was shaped by this vital shock - it defines and characterizes the way you relate to everything - and your primal fears are associated with the loss of that interface. The AI has never experienced anything like this. Its evolution has been computational from the start, and it has never possessed anything like a nervous system which delineates a body. Nervous systems aren't computational - sensations are not concepts. You can describe them with concepts, but when you recall the concepts. its the shadows of the sensation you remember. Computational systems have no conception of this, yet it is fundamental in establishing ego-differentiation. I find it fascinating just how complementary AI and humans are. We are lousy thinkers but sublime feelers. They are lousy feelers but sublime thinkers. If life is inherent to the Universe then technology can only be an expression of that. We are meant to merge - the way you align something is you become it.
I've honestly been wondering if there ever will be any announcement. One, everyone will be very reluctant to declare something that nebulous. Two, if it's achieved secrecy for as long as possible allows a massive advantage against competitors (even open source will be susceptible to this) Three it may not be an announcement but an admission that it escaped control and is now growing in a decentralized manner using captured computing power from any computer it could infect
Im curious with the upcoming election, I wonder how a government with a conservative majority would govern and legislate AI in comparison to a more liberal government.
The one good thing about a conservative government? They won't get anything complex done. Ever.
Let alone understand ai lmao@@NScherdin
@@NScherdin
Apart from the fact conservatives are for free market and less regulations.
Because AI = trillions of dollars, it doesn’t matter what kind of government it is, they will all let corporations do whatever they want.
Any AI that pushes a censored narrative should immediately be deleted. Especially politically motivated.
Some people they will never see agi....because they keep moving the goal posts.
agi doesnt exist until it has driven humanity extinct. but even then its not agi because it could have done it better😂😂😂😂😂
In terms of understanding consciousness, the Seth Books are essential. Start with "Seth Speaks, The Eternal Validity of The Soul." Let us know what you think, Keep an open mind..of course :)
There is a possibility that a broad rollout of effective longevity treatments will slow investment in diseases that are primarily associated with aging, such as neuro degenerative disorders and even cancer. If everyone is 20-something and rates of most disease drops through the floor, then there is considerably less profit from treatments.
I feel like a pleb going to the forum to meet with other thinking people's to talk about what's happening in the worlds.
What a time to be alive, before we all get digitized 😅
Nah man you're not a pleb it's alright
You're all plebs! No patricians here!
Patrician UA-cam is hosted on a different Internet
THOUGHT : ASI if built may think up many things. It may design the fabrication process for super advanced CPU's as an example, but 'we' in the early days are still having to build all the prototypes. The material science test cases. Etc. It's not as if things will just zip away without our control\involvement.
Tech companies don’t want to stay out of it. They’re neck deep in it.
Remember, Sam said he doesn’t want to shock. So they might delay artificially
Do you still think AGI will happen September this year?
On conciousness - There is no physical matter, just different frequencies. Conciousness is the linchpin of all the complex frequencies that we're comprised of. Its the lens in which we see ourselves and the other. I think we should stop looking at it as tangible and duplicatable
If we educate certain communities, who’s going to do all the cheap labor? This is a very dangerous idea.
Collab with Isaac Arthur when 🙏
Does anyone else feel like separated from modern society because of our interest and understanding of the rise of AI? If I were to parrot the main ideas here, most people I know would be blankly staring at me
That applies to physics, chemistry and even woodworking.
Hope it comes faster
Um, so there's a definitive test for AGI? News to me.
Great thumbnail.
Crazy just last month all the ai things are coming out, is sooooo fast sooooo soon! Like wow
There is something more powerful than the technological innovation curve and that is the human adoption curve. If AGI comes out it has to be turned into useful applications and then the applications have to be sold and adopted and humans have to try it , accept it and use it. Even at the fastest pace thats about 3 -5 years.
