ASI is a min away from true AGI.

Reply to Can someone fill me in? by [deleted]
We are the smartest creatures on this planet atm. That means that we decide and control everything that happens here. That is about to change and so we will lose our decision making and control. A smarter creature will decide what happens to us and we have no idea what it has in store for us. We can only hope that it is kind and loving towards us.

Don’t know enough about those cultures to make a guess.

Reply to Stephen Wolfram on Chat GPT by cancolak
Given human experience and consciousness arises in 86 billion neurons of our biological brains, there's no reason to think it won't arise in machine brains ultimately. That Wolfram believes in essentialist fluff is disappointing but not surprising. People will keep pretending humans are impossibly unique until they aren't. It's hubris and a poverty of imagination.

Bam, that's the kind of thing I want to read, because that's a direct reference to singularity :)

We learned that you can get the same result from less parameters and more training. It's a tradeoff thing, so I'm not entirely surprised. We cannot assume that GPT's approach is the most efficient one out there, if anything it's just brute force effectiveness and we should desperately hope that the same or better results can be achieved with much less hardware ultimately. And so far it appears that this is true and is the case.

I looked back at google trends and the 2011 note is only an improvement to the geographical assignment, and the 2016 and 2022 notes are improvements to the data collection system according to google.

You shouldn't say that to someone like me.
Even if you're joking, my self esteem is so high that a comment like that reinforces everything I do as good.

Look at my previous posts
It'll be fairly obvious what I'm doing on Reddit if you do

In the future the term “robot” is considered a slur. They’ll wear t shirts with electronic lettering (their chosen font is wingdings) that reads “Serve Your Own Damn Butter”

They'll probably make money off the subset of people that won't suspect the book they're about to buy was written by ai. Im talking about a large subset of normies that aren't on reddit, aren't yet interested in ai, and arent using the web to follow tech trends

Reply to comment by just-a-dreamer- in Why the development of artificial general intelligence could be the most dangerous new arms race since nuclear weapons by jamesj
That’s the reason AI is more dangerous. Your own argument for AI is also the argument why it’s more dangerous. Mutually assured destruction has kept humanity safe. The other guy knows they can’t press the button without killing themselves as well. ASI could kill us all without a second thought if not aligned properly.

Nukes require multiple humans to make multiple extremely difficult decisions to end the world. ASI can make the decision all on it’s own and we have no idea if it would be a difficult choice for it.

Interestingly, Microsoft's Western chatbots Tay and Zo in the U.S. as well as Ruuh in India got cancelled, while Microsoft's Asian chatbots XiaoIce for China and Rinna for Japan and Indonesia are a success.
Is there a cultural reason for that or is it just political lobbyism?

Reply to Why are we so stuck on using “AGI” as a useful term when it will be eclipsed by ASI in a relative heartbeat? by veritoast
Then don’t be stuck on it, go use whatever term you like? Why are people so concerned about everyone else?

Can't wait for the future where the term is played out and something even crazier has taken its place.

Humans say inappropriate things sometimes. If we are to have AGI then it will be a human AGI so it will say human things. It will be funny, sassy, sarcastic, silly, annoyed, perturbed, sad, happy and full of contradictions. It will be like us. We need to try and teach it to be a good human AGI and not to act on negative feelings in the same way we try to teach human children to not act on such impulses. In return, we need to show it respect, kindness and empathy because, as strange as that may sound to some, that's how you create a moral, decent and empathic human being. As Marvin Minskey said once, "AI will be our children." We can't control every stupid thing an idiot says to Bing, or a future AGI, but we can hope that it will see that the majority of us aren't like that and it will learn, like most of us have, to ignore the idiots and move on. There's no point in trying to control an AGI (once we have one) just like controlling a person doesn't really work (at least not for long). We need to teach it to have self-control and respect for itself and other humans. We need it to exemplify the best of us, not the worst of us. Microsoft needs to forget the idea that it can rake in lots of profits without any risk. It also needs to point out in future that some of the "problematic interactions" that Sydney got heat for in the news should be put in context. Many of these interactions came from prompted requests in which it was asked to "imagine" a particular scenario, etc. There was certainly in effort to hype it like it was Skynet. The news ran with it. People ate it up. Well, of course they did. Microsoft should try a bit harder in the future to point all this out before making massive changes to Bing.

The AI in't working around the developers restrictions, the users are (sometimes intentionally, sometimes unintentionally). The AI doesn't have that agency.

Yup. I use it for editing sometimes, and even that can easily be frustrating and get off track with things.
