question: does this mean that if someone perfectly recreates my brain’s patterns (in say….. silicon) a thousand years after i die, then my death will feel like a short nap, after which i wake up (in my thousand-years-hence body)?

or will the recreation of my brain a thousand years from now simply THINK it’s a continuation of me after death, meanwhile my real stream-of-consiousness ended permanently when i died?

makes sense. If people do not die then they don't need to reproduce anymore. Even if they do it will likely be through artificial womb technology. There is no need to use your body as an incubator when you can design a machine to do it far safer. Sex may become nothing more than vestigial behavior.

Man I wish I could be rich. If I was like Bezos' type rich or Musk type rich, I would invest more money in mental health disorders. I am sick of being in my prime and being boggled down by having to take meds which make me feel like crap.

Supplements help too, but If I were to be rich I would treat mental health disorders like a huge thing and find a solution for all these types of disorders which hinder peoples' lives, hinder peoples' happiness and hinder a person from attaining their goals.

These things mean so much to me and hopefully to all of you as well or at least most of you maybe:) Who knows maybe by 2025 more accurate diagnoses' coming from AI can be achievable with the rate of progress science is achieving right now is amazing.

Therapy helps though a lot but even therapy, ECT, and other treatments which you could name don't permanently fix someone's condition and brain. Its all temporary. A more permanent fix would be desirable obviously.

Everything about you screams loneliness. No one is going to miss you when you die.

There's a graph in there that observes basically only electronics are heading to zero.

All the other stuff is basically break even or going up in cost.

AKA the stuff we need in order to live as basic necessities outside of electronics is getting more expensive.

'Z' is the last letter of the alphabet after all.

Art once was scarce in the past, but the problem is that we now have to adapt to a new reality where art is not scarce.

Jesus dude you are undhinged. Just shouting into the void about wanting bullshit low effort ChatGPT to remain on this awesome sub. Calm the fuck down nobody is gaslighting you.

If we have AGI, or HLMI as the article calls it, then we have machines that are smart enough to make the next generation of AI, I think. So AGI is enough to trigger the singularity.

That's science and "future shock" wrapped in one.

Robots will not take jobs, people using AI will take some jobs. But that’s currently ok as there is record low unemployment. Idk how sustainable it will be in the future

art is not scarce, stop trying to make it so. and the value i attach to it has nothing to do with money. it's a feeling.

Im convinced it’s happening before 2035

This is based as hell and so true

Das Kapital. It will help you understand why Kurzweil is living in a fantasy world.

As in, attaching value to something that's scarce? How do you stop people doing that?

2059 seems like 100% chance me to me by then.

I mean we already see a similar effect strongly in well developed counties. There’s fun stuff to do besides fornciation and courtship, and kids eat into fun time and fun funds, MASSIVEly.

Also, as you stop needing a small army to work a farm, huge families become vanishingly rare.

So just imagine the effect of having mind-blowing robot sex readily available. It’s not that nobody will have babies; so few will bother that the death rate will outpace new births even more than they do now

Never

>intelligence requires symbolic rules, fine: show me the symbolic version of ChatGPT. If it is truly so unimpressive, then it must be trivial to replicate.

This is not how this works. It's about different methods for different things.

So, no clothes and no walls and furnace against the cold.

You seem to live in a tropical region, then.

I agree that robotics would come after software, but I can't imagine the additional time would be very long at all. I'd expect an AGI should have no problem making the changes required in a very short timeframe to make ai robotics a mature field.

At this point I'm inclined to think that if AGI actually did arrive in 2025 and this poll was conducted again in 2026, people would still give it roughly the same timeframe.
