we are living in a shitshow already so why prepping to something you are living daily? Only amount of shit varies in this show, there will not be utopia.

Reply to The naivety of arguments on both sides of the AGI debate is quite frustrating to look at by Particular_Number_68
From ChatGPT itself:
>GPT, or Generative Pretrained Transformer, is a type of language model developed by OpenAI. It is not considered an Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), but rather a specialized AI system designed to generate text based on patterns learned from large amounts of training data. > >GPT uses deep learning techniques, specifically the Transformer architecture, to generate text based on patterns it has learned from a large corpus of text data. The model is trained using a process called unsupervised learning, where it is exposed to a vast amount of text and learns to predict the next word in a sequence based on the context of the words that came before it. > >While GPT has achieved remarkable results in generating text that is coherent and semantically meaningful, it is still limited in its capabilities. It does not have the ability to reason, understand the world, or perform tasks that are not directly related to generating text. These limitations are a key factor in why GPT is not considered an AGI. > >In summary, GPT is a predictive model that is specialized in generating text based on patterns learned from large amounts of training data. While it has achieved remarkable results in its domain, it does not have the general intelligence capabilities that are associated with AGI.
Take the bot's own word for it

Money is just distributed voting for what we prioritize (prices) so resources can be distributed efficiently. Society can choose to endow people more or less money, there will always be things society wants and will give the people that provide it extra “votes” to spend

Well for starters I'm getting into cs. I think the 2 most relevant jobs of the future will be machine learning and prompt engineering, and I'm already working towards those 2. Even if ai codes ai we still need ml engineers to manage what will make up our future.

Prepping for what?
Better search engine results? An alternative to copy-pasting from StackOverflow?
Yes. I'm already doing these things.

That’s fundamentally different than a digitized copy of oneself. When I die, I’m dead. Sure my memories, patterns, emotions, etc can be replicated. From an outside perspective, one might view the copy as “me”. However, that would not change the fact that my biological self would be permanently detached (assuming there is no afterlife). I’d have no consciousness of the copy, completely and utterly detached. We may even exist simultaneously, however we would still be separate.
Unless you’re describing the act of actual uploading, but somehow converting biology into binary seems incomprehensible to me and may not even be possible. Even if it was, it’s probably impossible to discern the dilemma I just described (it actually being you vs merely a copy).

Still doesn't mean that there is an unlimited amount of beachfront property in southern California.
Any resources not on earths surface are really expensive to get, and better AI isn't going to change the laws of physics.
I do agree with your earlier idea that mining landfills will become a very good source of resources.
When talking post-scarcity it helps to define scarcity of what. We can eventually hit a point where all basic needs, and many luxury wants are inexpensive enough to be essentially free, but that doesn't mean unlimited everything.

It is I promise. We have barely broken the surface of what AI can do with human designs. Right now the main limitations are compute power and data. Any explorations into alternative architectures and whatnot come with a massive opportunity cost because of these.
OpenAI alone has probably spent a billion on compute up to now. Insanity
I don’t think you guys understand, but every single week we’re improving leaps and bounds with minor tweaks and modifications to existing architecture. It would be extremely inefficient to allow the AI to try and improve itself when we have almost guaranteed improvement by humans that is only limited by how much GPU we can muster

It's no different from the arguments that "you" aren't "you" after you go to sleep. How can you be sure that the you that wakes up is the same one that went to sleep?
You would have the same memories and the same body and same brain chemicals etc, so you would be mostly the same, but your personality would change slightly every day and . . .hey wait a minute, that literally is what happens and why people have moods and "bad days"!

True, but to the recreated being it will feel exactly like the same person. I don't want recreated me endlessly checking 33 times a second for a signal, without rest, on and on, like that poor person in the Expanse.

I definitely think it’s plausible for AI designed with malicious intent to wreak havoc in the ways OP mentioned. We’re entering into a phase where there’s thousands of new and competing AI’s popping up. At least a handful of them will undoubtedly be weaponized. I’m actually terrified of the new cybersecurity threats that will emerge (of course there will be “good” AI’s working against malicious actors, but we’re entering uncharted territory).

This is exactly my worst nightmare. If I'm ever threatened with digitization/uplift I'm going to find a way to pulverize my brain so nothing can be recovered and enslaved. Better oblivion than digital servitude.

"Is It Worth Being a Prepper? A Lighthearted Cost-Benefit Analysis"
In this calculation, we aim to determine if it makes sense to be a prepper by performing a cost-benefit analysis. The calculation takes into account the subjective value of life as a prepper and a non-prepper, as well as the estimated probability of a disaster occurring.
The equation used in the calculation is as follows:
Value of being a Prepper (VP) = (Value of Life as a Prepper if Nothing Happens (VLN) * (1 - Probability of Disaster (PD))) + (Value of Life as a Prepper if Something Happens (VLS) * Probability of Disaster (PD))
Value of Life as a Non-Prepper (VNP) = Value of Life as a Non-Prepper if Nothing Happens (VLNN) * (1 - Probability of Disaster (PD)) + Value of Life as a Non-Prepper if Something Happens (VLNS) * Probability of Disaster (PD)
In this calculation, the probability of disaster (PD) is expressed as a decimal between 0 and 1, representing the estimated chance of a disaster occurring. The value of life as a prepper if no disaster occurs (VLN) and the value of life as a prepper if a disaster does occur (VLS) are rated on a scale of 1-10, taking into account factors such as peace of mind, self-sufficiency, and the satisfaction of being prepared. The value of life as a non-prepper if no disaster occurs (VLNN) and the value of life as a non-prepper if a disaster does occur (VLNS) are also rated on a scale of 1-10.
For the purposes of this calculation, we assigned the following values to the variables:
PD = 0.01 (1% chance of a disaster occurring)
VLN = 5 (value of life as a prepper if no disaster occurs is rated 5 on a scale of 1-10)
VLS = 3 (value of life as a prepper if a disaster does occur is rated 3 on a scale of 1-10)
VLNN = 6 (value of life as a non-prepper if no disaster occurs is rated 6 on a scale of 1-10)
VLNS = 0 (value of life as a non-prepper if a disaster does occur is rated 0 on a scale of 1-10)
The outcome of the calculation is as follows:
Value of being a Prepper (VP) = (5 * (1 - 0.01)) + (3 * 0.01) = 4.95 + 0.03 = 4.98
Value of Life as a Non-Prepper (VNP) = (6 * (1 - 0.01)) + (0 * 0.01) = 5.94 + 0 = 5.94
Based on these calculations, the value of life as a non-prepper is higher compared to the value of life as a prepper. However, it is important to note that these values are subjective and may vary greatly depending on the individual's personal beliefs and experiences. This calculation is meant to be taken with a grain of salt and serves only as a lighthearted illustration of the cost-benefit analysis of being a prepper. This has been a collaboration between bortlip and chatGPT.

Gonna make a giant leap here and assume you meant to type

This is already done and it's already been implemented in the most popular web-ui for stable diffusion too. Granted the results aren't perfect yet.
