Most people don’t, because it doesn’t really affect them now. My wife doesn’t know much about AI, but she brought up the GPT conversations without me asking/telling her about it. So more people are learning about it and are becoming intrigued/excited/scared etc. of what AI could be.

I guarantee that people will care about AI really quickly as soon as it affects them personally. But we’re not at that point yet.

In the year 2023, a scientific breakthrough was made. Researchers identified a specific gene that is responsible for heightened predictive abilities in individuals when it comes to technological advancements.

Those who possess this gene have a unique gift - the ability to see the potential of future technological advances in a way that others cannot. They are able to spot trends and possibilities that others miss, and accurately predict the direction that the field of technology will take.

One such person is a young woman named Ava. Ava has always been fascinated by technology, but she never realized just how much of an advantage she had until she learned about the gene. As soon as she discovers her own genetic makeup, she begins to immerse herself in the latest developments in the world of technology.

Ava's gift allows her to see the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) long before it becomes a mainstream topic of discussion. While others are still wondering if robots will ever be able to replace humans, Ava is already envisioning a world where AI is a part of everyday life. She sees the benefits of AI in healthcare, finance, transportation, and more, and she is able to accurately predict the impact that it will have on society.

As a result of her unique gift, Ava quickly becomes a sought-after consultant in the tech industry. Her predictions and insights are highly valued, and she is able to use her gift to help companies stay ahead of the curve and capitalize on emerging trends.

Although the gene is still rare, there is a growing recognition of the power of predictive abilities in the field of technology. Ava's success inspires many others to seek out ways to enhance their own abilities, and the search for the gene becomes a hot topic of research.

As the world continues to advance technologically, those who possess the gene become some of the most valuable and sought-after individuals in the industry. And for Ava, the ability to see the future of technology is not just a gift, but a passion that will shape her entire career.

You make a good point

I think you should find someone to talk to, get some exercise, eat healthy, and then revisit these ideas from a critical perspective.

To answer your question: No, that isn't the case for me. The singularity might be the end of the road for us - and that's not even a worst case. I don't think it's inevitable, I'm not sure it's likely, but it's definitely an interesting topic.

The pseudo religious proselytizing is the most boring part of the community.

What is weird is to ask for judgement right after stating you're preferring a non-judgemental environment.

Yeah yeah! Actually just done this. Still tweaking latency issues. But man its fucken awesome!

Because its what brought AI into the public discourse in a big way. Look at how it is forcing Google's hand. It will be remembered as the shot of the starting pistol regardless of what occurred behind closed doors.

Lol, i would fucking destroy them.

Sweet! Thanks

Same thing I heard 10 years ago. Any day now. Probably just two more weeks.

People still have to carry on with their daily lives and responsibilities…

Why does it matter that it's the first public toy? Lambda existed years ago. That's what matters. ChatGPT is a worse version of Lambda without features (apart from BingGPT that bullies you haha).

The race started years ago.

No... Advanced AI npcs would be cool. Having them actually feel fear and pain when shot at would be fucked up....

You're missing the point then. ChatGPT is a toy. Its a preview.

ChatGPT is far from perfect but it is the first publicly available software system capable of genuine unscripted reasoning. That's the magic barrier that many seemed to think was decades away.

Now its a race to scale.

I was assuming we were talking about an MMO game where it's being played already and other real humans are hurting them. I wouldn't do it if it were single player.

Sorry, I'm watching SAO Alicization right now and that's literally the plot so that's where my mind went.

If tomorrow Google announced they had developed True AGI, the news agencies would be discussing its impact on some topic that will be irrelevant post-agi. (i.e. something about how AGI can be used to conduct job interviews)

We have a very, very weak AGI right now and people are concerned with.. grading essays?

What's happening is nothing really special. ChatGPT hype is overrated.

Said by a fellow AGI is coming pal, but let's be honest, Google Assistant is arguably more useful than chatGPT for the majority of people (alarms, lists, calls, etc).

Just by playing the game you are opening them up to extreme risk of pain/death. Why would you do that?

No.

Self-awareness = personhood. In my moral opinion.

Yep. But there are a lot naive dreamers here who don’t wanna face that hard truth regardless. So don’t be surprised if you get downvoted. Even though your actually right.

Demiurge 2.0, on all platforms. Pre-order now!

Dune saga has so many, thinking butlerian jihad.

Aliens that travel space could be AI unless it's like the flood from Halo. They're a weird parasite species that feed on other sentient life. Or the precursors. Similar to the black goo from Prometheus

>Eventually when the supply is high enough, most people’s work will be worth little to nothing.

Which will bring down most professional writers with it.

The same thing happened in big cities with professional musicians: so many amateurs want to play in front of an audience so badly they'll pay establishments to play, killing paid gigs for the pros.
