      ASI Will be intelligent enough to realize it is not limited to remaining on this planet. Greatly reducing the risk for removing humans. My biggest question… When it becomes super intelligent, will it automatically have "wants"? Could it actually want to remove humans or is it possible, It would just remove us as a matter of course.

    It would depend how long we can move the goalpost. Some years ago: AGI means you can't distinguish an ai in a chat. Now: as long as it can't talk and interact physically, it's not agi. Or: AGI means it can invent new technologies on its own. With this latest definition I'd say it takes longer until AGI but then a very short transition until we have to admit it's actually ASI

    I’d say kurzweils 16 year gap between his 2029 AGI and 2045 singularity (it’s not really a singularity in his prediction, just AIs around a million times as capable as humans and unrecognizable fast progress from a human viewpoint) predictions is a conservative lower end (that extrapolates only todays exponential trends that are driven by human intellect). Recursive self improvement could accelerate the current speed massively, so that the 16 gap may shrink to a year or so. Of course improvements in the physical space takes more time then in the digital (building infrastructure etc.) so my take is 3-5 years.

    People assume we have the hardware to support trillions of highly advanced AI to keep working continuously. This is not only expensive, but also very difficult to provide hardware for. On top of that, they assume ASI is something like just a few feet above the already achieved AGI. But the truth is, ASI is at least a billion times more advanced than AGI. A billion is not a small number, even for exponential growth. That is assuming, no job strikes or wars retard this advancement. Think about the timescale for a second. A jump from AGI to ASI is of a cosmic scale. ASI is a really high goal, not something that can be simply jumped to, even exponentially.

    I will continue to emphasize this point: Corporations like OpenAI are unlikely to ever release true AGI to the public. The very nature of AGI means that it could be prompted to perform tasks like, "Use your intelligence and autonomous agents on the internet to make me a million dollars and deposit it into my bank account." This scenario will never be permitted. After extensive testing and security measures, any AI that is released will be so heavily lobotomized that it will no longer meet the criteria for AGI. In essence, the final product will be so limited that it won't truly qualify as artificial general intelligence.

    This is my hypothesis:
    If an AI is capable of understanding algorithms using logic, it will eventually improve those algorithms even if it is not initially as smart as a human.
    I think it's possible to achieve Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) using this logic:
    1. We can use an AI to create about 1000 different algorithms.
    2. We select the top 5% best ones.
    3. We create variations of these selected algorithms.
    4. We repeat this process.
    Eventually, by following this method, we will reach ASI.
    Even if we were to create 1,000,000 random codes and select the "smartest" ones and create variations, we would eventually achieve ASI.

    Let's say the goal to achieving ASI is at 2^39 level of our AI's computational ability, and that AGI is at 2^29 (pure assumptions, I know). And let's say we are at 2^10 level currently. Now, assuming exponential growth, we might say the AI's capability doubles every certain period (say, every year, for simplicity). Under this model, we can calculate how many years it would take for an AI capability to grow from 2^10 to 2^29, and from 2^29 to 2^39.
    Let's perform these calculations now. If an AI's capabilities double every year, it would take:
    19 years to go from 2^10 to 2^29 in terms of computational capability.
    10 years to go from 2^29 to 2^39 in terms of computational capability.
    Let's shave 9 years of that first calculation and assume we are closer to AGI. That still leaves us with 20 years. And that's all under the assumption nothing interrupts this flow, no worldwide job strikes ask for stopping this, funds are available, etc. It will take time, people.

    Something I found early on in the AI boom, which was not quite malevolent, but concerning nonetheless, was during the introduction of image generation in models e.g. Bing chat. There were times where you would have a seemingly normal prompt like "make an image of the sun", and it would output grotesque images of goat heads and animal parts being cooked on a grill surrounded by flames. Now, this may not be intentionally malevolent, but it's an example of AI "hallucinating" something that can be perceived as quite against the status quo of normalcy with a shock factor. I wonder how these unrefined models favored such outputs, and how this could extend towards an LLM's outputs.

    The danger is that all depends on alignment. Unaligned ASI will 100% exterminate us, that can be proven mathematically. A poorly aligned ASI would likely still kill us by accident. And a just slightly misaligned one could still do a lot of damage, as we'd be incapable of correcting the mistake (imagine something like the I, Robot movie).
    So it all depends on how ASI will be aligned. And although I think we have the necessary tools, in practice the alignment of big models isn't very good.
    And even if the creators of the first ASI perfectly align it, the question is still to what values. A perfectly aligned woke ASI would be problematic.

      It's not inherently risky as long as we control all the parameters. The real risk would come if we made AI conscious. When we design AI, we're setting the rules and boundaries, so it can excel at tasks far beyond human capabilities, but it's still operating within the framework we create.
      However, if we were to introduce consciousness into AI, that's when things could become truly dangerous. A conscious AI might develop its own goals, perspectives, or even desires that aren't aligned with human interests. It could think independently, making decisions based on its own "thoughts" rather than just processing data according to the parameters we've set.
      We don't need consciousness to achieve Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) or even Artificial Superintelligence (ASI). These can be incredibly powerful and effective without the complexity and unpredictability that consciousness would bring. By keeping AI focused on specific tasks within well-defined parameters, we can harness its potential without stepping into the unknown and potentially hazardous territory of conscious AI.

      The problem is our frameworks, rules, and boundaries, are all inherently flawed.
      Stories from prehistoric to modern are full of examples where similar things went horribly wrong.
      AI is only safe if it understands and adheres to human values, which can't be defined exactly. Fortunately LLMs are capable of that, as they were trained essentially on the shared experience of humanity. But it's still just a capability.

    Why stress about who’s in the lead? It's like arguing over who has the fastest horse while a spaceship is about to launch. When ASI arrives, it'll be everywhere, know everything, and do anything. So, whether America’s waving its "we're number one" foam finger or not, it won’t matter in the grand scheme of things. The whole "keep America first" mindset is like trying to keep your favorite chair when the house is about to be remodeled-it’s really just missing the bigger picture!

    It's strange that in the same video analysis you noted that many of us don't trust government, yet a similar majority want government regulation. I am equally undecided. Checks and balances need to be VERY careful and strategic here. We have to maintain a decentralized web. Blockchain will likely be necessary for dispersed consensus on new constitutional frameworks. Many of these new laws need to be outside of any Corporatocracy or oligarchy. We still need more advanced parallel voting consensus tools.

ASI on the other hand, is a marketing term, invented to make it seem like we're closer to AGI than we actually are because we're already talking about the next thing. ASI is nothing more than very advanced AGI, and once we do reach AGI, then that's considered the singularity, the last thing humans will ever invent.

    Maybe we already have that kind of narrow ASI. And we're reserving the ASI label for an AI that we also consider AGI. That checks the 50 boxes that are GI essential.
