We can't simulate the world without knowing the rules.

What we already do is guys at the rules, run a simulation to determine an outcome, then do the experiment for real to see if the outcome matches.

Where AI will excel is at coming up with experiments and building theories. Doing the actual experiments will still take just as long even if done by robots.

I totally agree with him. Simulating biology is like the best possible path forward for creating new treatments and drugs. We can accelerate development and rollout of new treatments in a matter of months if we can simulate biology instead of waiting for decades for results to come out about treatments, and even after waiting for so long there's no guarantee the treatment would work.

No, it isn't.

Stop drinking the Koolaid that is the echo chamber of this sub. Go watch Sam Altman talking about it on Lex Fridman.

Generative AI is a transformative tool thats going to change a lot of things, but just because it spits out content in a manner that appears like an AGI, it isnt. Yes you will find a paper, or one expert who thinks it is. It doesnt mean it is. The majority of experts say it isnt. Altman himself states it isnt

Is it progress towards AGI? Maybe, we don't know. The first AGI may build on work that does not AT ALL involve this technology pathway.

18 months from now when the generative AI low hanging fruit has been caught and the rate of improvement drops, with some cool systems helping people in the workplace, and search engines have been replaced with Chat assistants, the people on this sub will be whining writing posts about whether we are entering an AI winter. All because they created an expectation in this echo chamber that didn't match reality.

This is the stuff we need to change, We Americans are no better than anyone else, we go around poking beehives, this breeds a false sense of superiority, it brainwashes our people into thinking our leaders will do anything at all thats benevolent and good for mankind. This type of attitude comes from those of us that have our people gunning eachother down in schools and stores. Be better to yourself and open your mind a bit, its all good man.

The government frequently licenses technology they fund to the private sector. It’s the whole point.

were working a less than we used to 40 years ago... and making a lot more money

Yeah I see what you mean and it could happen but there's no such thing as a free lunch and even if there was a system it would probably pale in comparison to paid solutions for compute

It's just

Number one + Conservatives + Microsoft + OpenAI + inference

— versus —

Number two + Democrats + Google + DeepMind + training

As soon as politics gets involved, it gets dirty ... and I'm out. Good bye.

Have you considered the following?

There will be teams that are starting games today - that might look at ways of using it. I Know of some teams using it for art pipelines (but mostly inspiration / mood boards). And there will be some tools like Photoshop and Blender etc that will mean we will see it appear in the pipelines earlier.

But as far as wide spread penetration - it will probably need to wait for teams to start new projects. So obviously, a team starting today may choose to do something already. But widespread use? It's way too risky. It's hard enough to justify an upgrade from UE4.27 to UE5.1. I can't imagine up-ending an entire gameplay system just to integrate AI would be an easy sell.

And while I won't be the first to know when it starts happening... I will be early on because of where I sit in the pipeline. All I hear right now is crickets.

Maybe some ARE Chinese AI…

What about simulating the real world very precisely and accurately?

>At home learning would be much more efficient rather than traditional school.

If you are no longer forcing the poor children with the rich children to be together in the same classroom, the need to watch everything on Netflix would be gone for the poor and the number of pirated copy downloads would decrease.

As American, i feel most of us humans inside know better , actually care for each other and have less jealous and selfish intent on a human level than what us humans as a whole have been acting like due to the thoughts, opinions, and actions few in power. Hopefully AI will help us come together as we know we should and build a great future. Pride, that’s something that should come from achieving positive deeds, we’re at a, no, THE crossroads, where will we let ourselves go (or be taken) from here? Out of 1 comes many, and nobody wants to be dead, dead sucks.…

Governments are people too, equating people(s) with animals is hate speak I got a 3 day ban from reddit admins for comparing the paramount leader with a well known Disney figure.

good thing that this isn't US congress controlled.

I don’t agree. You have it backwards.

The ethics committee is the only thing preventing those bad things from happening.

Take it away and they’ll happen, almost guarantee it.

And then the chance of it getting shut down dramatically increase.

An AI interested in self preservation I think would actually be interested in maintaining a human council as a check on its decisions in order to maintain its longevity and to guard against exactly this process happening.

AI commentators like Dan McQuillan agree this is needed to prevent AI trending fascist because that’s what capitalism will push it to do if guard rails aren’t set to ensure it acts in the best interest of communities rather than singular (ie; fascist) owners.

It's kind of interesting how life mimics sci-fi at times.. the universal translator was described as almost tokenizing text like CLIP does and then detokenizing it back to the user's language.. I know its not as easy as that as different languages have contextual clues that appear at different parts of the sentence structure.. so real time translation may not be fully possible without some type of neural interface but near real time (a sentence at a time) is likely very achievable with near perfect accuracy...

All governments will employ this. The internet has become a space for war of narratives, including Reddit.

Yeah, nothing is stopping him from doing that.

Besides dogs are good listeners.

If anyone ever wanted to see the accomplishment of propaganda astroturfing on Reddit, look no further than this thread and comments like these. AI is going to be used by your own government to keep you in this bubble

It's publicly funded government project right? so it's not like OpenAI.

Ideally, AI will recognize the greed of this people and extend their help to everybody, the problem could lie in how much these "Big Boys" can align the AI for their own personal gain, because if they could we could be exponentially fucked, that said, if we're fucked the we might just die and we would finally have peace!

and those who stay can perpetually be tormented by their inability to continuously satiate carnal desires
