Reply to Proof of real intelligence? by Destiny_Knight
I personally couldn't care less if it's "intelligent" or not. My own concern is mainly whether what comes out of it is useful or not. Whether a conscious mind produced that output or whether it was the result of a complicated dart game, as far as I'm concerned is an interesting question. But a more important question is - at least for me - is what it produces useful? It's less academic, and somewhat more objective. I can't tell if it's conscious. I CAN tell whether it's properly summarized a paragraph I wrote into a particular format, or whether the list of ideas I asked it for are worth delving into. I can't evaluate its conscious state, or even its level of intelligence, but that doesn't mean I can't evaluate its behavior, and I have to say that in those areas where factual knowledge isn't as necessary (summarizing text, creating outlines, producing lists of ideas, etc.) it behaves usefully intelligent. Does that mean it IS intelligent? To an extent, to me at least, that may not even matter except as an academic thought.
I almost want to look at these systems from a Behavioral Psychology point of view, where internal states are simply discounted as irrelevant and external behavior is all that matters. I don't like applying that to people, but it does seem tempting to apply it to AIs.
ChatGPT is not a calculator, it's more like a young, well-educated but inexperienced intern who wants to do a good job, but who still makes mistakes. I understand that I have to check ChatGPTs work. I can work with that.

Makes sense to me. It’s the same effect behind journaling, people are judgey and cruel but you can feel safe writing and chat gpt also has logic which can be comforting to know it won’t randomly get emotional about a topic so that you can have calm consistency where most people can’t

Kind of like nuclear fusion. Or AI before ChatGPT.

This. The lack of news relevant to people outside the industry does not constitute a lack of news

That’s a good point. There accounts for 2021 are here:
That works out at just under 2 billion USD in 2021. Given their own and the industry trend we can probably assume 2022 is higher and 2023 will be higher still.
OAI gave no timeline over which their 10B injection will be spent over, but presumably more than 1 or 2 years. So these two are definitely in the same league.

Not only is work progressing, but it could best be described as a mad rush. IBM, Intel, Microsoft, Google, Amazon and others are all working on the problem, approaching it from slightly different angles. Anyone of them might report a breakthrough at any moment.

What about a machine master with training data curated by Elon?

i think most intelligences will be virtual and humans that don't end up uploading themselves will be amish (or equivalent culture) and live on what is essentially equivalent to a modern day indian territory or historical re enactment farm.
you wont have to go anywhere to get your brain re wrote if you broke the rules.

Not that it’s not cool, but there’s a gulf between having proof of concept and having an actual product/service in production.
I think lists like these would gain more traction if they just stuck to things that the average consumer can use today.

The way to deal with stress and anxiety is to face it and not be avoidant. Go outside and get into bikes or something

I actually bought Google stock last week cause I think that was an overreaction to a small mistake. That's not what makes or breaks Google's position as a leader in AI development.

Maybe "crimes of passion" could still be attempted.
Although you could view these as "crimes of emotional dysfunction"and be very hopeful that interaction with a post-singularity AI would help identify/cure these before they happen.

Having stock dictated by performance of AI text generator is very much hardcore cyberpunk territory.

Yeah, exactly. I almost edited it to say something like that.
Also the Trinity of remote technologies, probably.
I imagine AI will always be cloud based because there's so much more efficient and dedicated competing per available. Quantum computing will probably also always be remote because of the cooling requirements.
Nuclear fusion? We already have it. Look up. Just, remote access to it.
