It's only as dystopian as it's use-case. The important factor in implementation would be that whatever group runs it needs to maintain some independence from political whims.
I don't have much more faith in corporations to be benevolent with them so I'd like to see public service AIs counterweight AIs that are launched with pure greed in mind.

This is problem with the U.K. always banging on about ‘creating our own Silicon Valley’. Any moderately successful tech company gets bought out by a foreign owned corporation. Arm Ltd being a recent example.

The funny thing is that chatGPT is developed entirely on the back of public data. Naturally it should be open.

Headquarters are still in London, and they are registered as a British LTD.

The last jobs to be automated will be those providing patient facing Healthcare (dentists, RNs, etc.) for the simple reason that those careers are so aggressively regulated and the negative outcomes from an AI not sufficiently competent so dire to the outcome it will take years before the outcomes are acceptable to regulatory agencies and those regulatory agencies themselves shift.

-Yes, but GPT-4 wasn't public till they did extensive red teaming. They looked at all the worst cases before letting it out, not that GPT-4 can't cause any damage by itself just not the kind ppl are freaked about.
-That is a given with the aforementioned arguments, ASI assumes superhuman ability on any task and metric. I really think if GPT-5 is showing this same trend that alignment ease scales with intelligence, people should seriously update their p(doom).
-My argument boils down that the standard of sufficiency can only be satisfied to the degree that one can't observe failure modes anymore, you can't arbitrarily satisfy it just like you can't observe anything smaller then Planck length. There is a finite resolution to this problem, whether it is limited by human cognition or infinite possible imagine substructures. We obvious need more interpretability research, and there are some recent trends like Reflexion, ILF and so on that will over the long term yield more insight into the behaviour of systems as you can work with "thoughts" in text form instead of inscrutable matrices. There will be likely some form of cognitive structures inspired by the human brain which will look more like our intuitive symbolic computations and allow us to measure these failure modes better. Misalignments on the lower level could still be possible ofc, but that doesn't say anything about the system on the whole, it could be load bearing in some way for example. That's why I think the only way one can approach this is empirical, and AI is largely an empirical science let's be real.

A lot of people make it through life with sign language. Saying body language is not enough kind of disproves the point.

Actually, the .gov.uk website design principles are really highly regarded.

I think one of the very last job to be replace would be jobs related to taking care of babies. It's not that AI would not be able to do it but human parents would value human interation and unless humanoid AI robots that are extinguishable from humans are created, the job is not going away.
Other than that, I need to really think of a job that will NOT be replaced.

A Government run AI strikes me as quite dystopian.

Humanity haters gotta chill. Everything is in relation to percentage and good to great people are in percentage way more than criminals and people like Hitler.

I mean yeah, we need to remove evil and sadistic desires from human psychology, part of the point of becoming transhuman.

Congrats you fell for capitalist propaganda. Governments can actually be extremely effective, especially when compared to the "market" look at the operating cost of private insurance vs how medicaid operates internally speaking. Where do you see industry absolutely crushing it? Because I see it no where, theyre all too self serving and forced to show immediate growth or theyre removed from power causing long term planning to be impossible. Please, educate yourself.

I think he has a point. Even if we all become immortal that wont stop corruption and evil people. You already know they would put criminals in eternal prisons laterally hell on earth. That's what you call serving a real life sentence. If this were a virtual reality immortality the same thing would occur. People will get sent to VR prison as well. Immortality doesn't solve the underlying issues we face.

Can't wait to see the new AI generated disinformation campaigns. Maybe this time they can help elect an actual orangutan.

While true, I think companies will rush to fill that role. Because we haven't had good general software to power the robots until recently, they didn't think to go past the initial hardware.
If general purpose robots become commonplace, naturally the next step would be to increase their performance and capabilities including making specialized robots. And it'll happen very quickly.

We got one here in Romania called 'ION' (literally 'John'). But our politicians are too afraid to let it speak freely, seems like it is either not up to par or will say things that are too respectful of them.
