Reply to comment by TFenrir in When will AI actually start taking jobs? by Weeb_Geek_7779
It seems pretty niche. Like you mentioned only 2 openings at your company. The company I work at is pretty huge and I don't think that kind of job even makes up 1/10,000 of our jobs, if at all, because all these tasks are distributed across other people on a rotation, or just part of another job.

This thread from user /u/theonlybutler is about agentic goals, power seeking is instrumental goal. It has nothing to do with human language being one way or another. Stop trying to fix nonsense with more nonsense.

Reply to comment by genericrich in Sam Altman's tweet about the pause letter and alignment by yottawa
We can't align a hammer to not hit your fingers, or a human to not become a criminal. Thinking a dynamic multi-contexual system will somehow become a paragon saint is ridiculous.
And no matter how many alignment training sets you have it all goes out the window as soon as someone needs a military AI to kill people and ignore those sets.

Reply to comment by SkyeandJett in Meta AI: Robots that learn from videos of human activities and simulated interactions by TFenrir
I think physical robot labor will probably lag behind digital labor by a lot just as a matter of scalability. It’s a lot easier to whip up 1 million AI personal assistants than it is to whip up 1 million robots.

I'll give you a very common job - someone whose job is to take meeting notes, summarize them, turn them into meetings or documents, create slide shows - sometimes for a single person, execs, or a group of people. We have a couple of people with this job in my company.

The smartest people r afraid of AI for a reason. the chance of it backfiring on its own+used by terrorist to caused huge damage on a scale never seen before is enough to make it the second biggest threat to us

I just watched an interview with Geoffrey Hinton, one of the pioneers of neural nets and deep learning and he suggested that it needs more than language (multi-modal). So you know.. probably not.

This is like when Bing was caught stealing Google search results.

Now Google is the one doing it...

The impression I have is that FLI wants a neutered version of AGI that isn't disruptive to the status quo. They want an AGI that won't make people uncomfortable, that preserves our awful capitalist structures. In other words, they seem to want to avoid an AI that doesn't benefit people too broadly or too quickly. The whole point of AGI in my mind is that it can completely displace the poisonous economic systems that we've been propping up for the past two hundred odd years. Furthermore, AGI can tremendously accelerate the pace of technological progress - again, benefitting humanity broadly and sooner rather than later.
I will always prefer fast, broadly beneficial expansion of new technology. Nobody "paused" the polio vaccine for six months - and for good fucking reason. And yes, I see our current political and economic crises as equally as urgent as polio was.

Is this a reference to the post on r/Nietzsche where someone asked AI what Nietzsche would think of using the blue shell in Mario Kart ?

Reply to Can you please stop answering technical/meta questions with „ask chatgpt“ or [chatgpt answer]? This is exhausting as f, and makes me worried about a dystopian future where people never use their own mind anymore but ask an AI basically everything, as if using a calculator for 5*4 or so. by BeginningInfluence55
I’m sorry but I prefer not to continue this conversation. I’m still learning so I appreciate your understanding and patience.🙏

Reply to comment by baconwasright in Interesting article: AI will eventually free people up to 'work when they want to,' ChatGPT investor predicts by Coolsummerbreeze1
...except it hasn't.
That's the point.
In fact, the millennial generation is slated to be the first American generation to die with less wealth than our parents. And GenZ is predicted to be the second.
You are asking us to ignore reality and our own experiences.

Folksy nonsense when there is literal data proving the opposite.

This is the real question. We can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Any investment that isn't going into AI and Robotics is a waste. We should be in full on 1955 space race mode but it's not even on the radar. Absolute insanity.

It is neither controversial nor new.
