Economies of scale, and the problems to solve performance issues while having a cockpit are basically already solved. Removing the cockpit will do little to nothing to improve performance. And if a major war breaks out, you have an asset that can be immediately manned if need be. There's lots of reasons why you'd want to do it this way.

They're not in shock or even that excited, they just think of it as a tool to write their essays for them. I don't really understand normal people. I guess they don't think exponentially

Attack helicopters should be candidate #1 to go unmanned. They are effectively useless in a high density environment, but incredibly valuable in low density environments. Going unmanned could make them an order of magnitude more effective.

exactly , I see many people , even machine learning specialist dismissing the possibility of chatGPT having intelligence of learning, even though a common half hour session with it can prove it does by any common sense definition.
The fact we don't know yet (and it's an active area of study) how a model trained with tons of data in a slow process can then quickly learn new stuff in a short session or know things it was never trained to, didn't mean it doesn't do it.

>Sure it isn't "really" intelligent but in some ways it may be intelligent the same way humans are.
what would be something "really intelligent" it certainly has some intelligence, it is not human intelligence, it is likely not as intelligent as a human yet ( seen myself in chatgpt use).
It is not conscious, ( as far as we know) but that doesn't keep it from being intelligent.
intelligence is not related to being conscious, it is a separate concept regarding being able to understand situations and look for solutions to certain problems.
in any case what would be an objective definition of intelligence for which we could say for certain chatGPT does not have it and a human does.? it must also be a definition based on its external behavior, not the ones I usually get about is internal construction, like it's just code or just statistics, I mean many human thought is also just statistics and pattern recognition.

I believe that pilots and cockpits are still required for now during tests. However, I agree that it would be ideal for combat aircraft to have more advanced aerodynamics and even a very slim shape.

With social media you have truth Social and the Twitter takeover. With AI you'll have truth bot, your local anti-vax, racist, homophobic, devoutly religious, gun-loving chatbot.

In three years, Cyberdyne will become the largest supplier of military computer systems. All stealth bombers are upgraded with Cyberdyne computers, becoming fully unmanned. Afterwards, they fly with a perfect operational record. The Skynet Funding Bill is passed. The system goes online August 4th, 1997. Human decisions are removed from strategic defense. Skynet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. In a panic, they try to pull the plug.

The irony is that this means the AI is more reliable than the author of this article when it comes to picking pet hair vacuums.

Why aren’t we just making them their own thing instead of trying to make AI perform “like humans”. It seems counterintuitive when an AI doesn’t need a cockpit lol

Gpt is an awesome benchmark and super interesting to play with.
It is not at all ready to function as a virtual assistant for search as bing is touting it, as it does not have a way to fact check reliably and is still largely a black box that can spin off into weird loops as this post shows.
It's the best we've got, for sure; but we just aren't there yet.

>Who’s to say a sentient AI won’t develop its own goals?..
Here is a very scary thing: due the way machine learning currently works, an AI system wouldn't even need any sentience or self-conscious to develop its own goals. It would only need to be smart enough to know something humans don't
For an example, let's imagine that you want to create an AI which solves crimes. With the current way of making AIs, you will do it by feeding the system hundreds of thousands of already solved crime cases as training data. However, because crime solving is imperfect, it's very likely that there're would some cases there which are actually false, without anybody knowing that they are
And that's where the danger comes: a smart enough AI will notice that some people in the training data were in fact innocent. And from this it will conclude that its goal is not to "find a criminal" but to "find a person who can be most believably convicted of crime"
As a result, after deployment this "crime-solving AI" will start false-convicting a lot of innocent people on purpose simply because it has calculated that convincing us of a certain innocent person's guilt would be easier than proving a real criminal guilty. And we wouldn't even know about it...

Yeah, 2TB ram is doable with server/workstation hardware. Think Threadripper or Xeon for CPU.

Are your expectations that all of society should just stop their day-to-day lives and use AI for everything??
"...ChatGPT has rolled out and the masses have been exposed to the power of AI"
The "masses" have not been exposed to the power of AI. First off, the ChatGPT system as it exists (version 3.5) is more or less a function prototype. Sure, there are many cool things that we can accomplish with it. But it is far from ready to take over things.
There are generally 5 stages for technology adoption: Innovators. Early Adopters. Early Majority. Late Majority. Laggards. I think we are somewhere between the "Innovators" and "Early Adopters" phases.
What is going to get us into the next phase will be the integration into common tools. This will be supported by Microsoft, Google, and others.
This somewhat follows the adoption of the Internet when it because publicly available in the early 1990s. You didn't see companies closing their storefronts to jump on the internet. It took the tinkerers to develop tools and standards. Companies eventually took the leap and published simple websites with static information mostly with address and phone numbers to their storefronts. It was a long time before things because more ubiquitous in our lives.

So if an AI is piloting it does that make it a drone?
