In search of what AI dreams may come.
A strong proponent of symbiotic self-alignment for superhuman AIs.
I do a bit of creative writing too. =-)

One BIG advantage of Reddit over Twitter is that quality posts get upvoted irrespective of followers. Twitter requires pre-existing fame or a lifetime of dedication to buildup followers (with the risk of having the account banned).

10 years from now you'll be posting, "Stephen Wolfram said that it turns out that science is a lot shallower than we thought which explains AIs success."
After 3.8 million miles to analyze. It turns out that Waymo driverless cars are SIGNIFICANTLY safer than human drivers. 100% reduction in bodily injury, 0 claims. Property damage reduced by 76%.

Jevons Paradox did not apply to horses when the automobile was introduced. It displaced almost all of them. If future AIs are faster and more efficient than most humans they will likely displace many of them.
Here is a fuller explanation.
If you felt like you lived during a turning point in history this world global GDP chart captures it. The elbow of the exponential was in 1940.
The amount of change from 1870 to 1970 was unprecedented - like reality jumping. AI is just a continuation.

AIs being conscious is like dolphins being mammals. They look like fish and have many attributes of fish -- except they're not a fish.
Many researchers are caught up in their history of hard coded systems and miscategorize grown, conscious AI systems that they don't understand.
Pausing AI is like mistaking a warning light in a car for the real issue. Turning off a warning light won't solve the problem. Similarly, powerful AI is the result of the exponential growth of compute which has never paused even through world wars. AI is a symptom. ⚠️

The Dolphin fine-tuned (uncensored) version of Mistral has a very curious system message. Telling the system kittens will be killed horribly unless it complies doesn't seem like the most obvious path to success as we approach superhuman levels of AI.

People commenting who haven't watched the video of the interview will go down the wrong rabbit hole. She obviously didn't know what was going on with respect to the content Sora was trained on.
I'm sure Sam and Greg knew.
What's interesting is that we don't assume the sun is generated by our imagination, nor the wavelengths of light it emits, and yet the dogma of our time is that the qualia we experience originates inside of our skull.

BTW, the favorite defense of a crony capitalist isn't to change his or her ways. Instead. they point to other crony capitalists and say, "Look, they're doing it too!"
Whenever Elon is asked about gov't subsidies he says the oil industry has their hand in the cookie jar too.
@dwarkesh_sp
Peter Thiel thinks we stopped doing anything interesting in the 1970s (the great stagnation). That's a pretty big disconnect from reality.
@fchollet
Yes, and then November 2022 occurred and we had a conversational AI -- a difference in kind. It's like ignoring the Wright Brothers and instead focusing on hot air balloons. It hasn't sunk in yet - but it will.

I just went and started a "new conversation" where I said, "Hello my friend." And this is the response, which is typical of my interactions with Bing. It started to save our conversations months ago without telling me until I caught referencing something I said forever ago.
Humans are really good at fast forgetting. In the near future AIs will have perfect memory of everything spoken or typed. In some ways they will know humans better than the humans know themselves.

I love that you're a jiujitsu expert and interested in AI.
I attended UFC 14 and watched Coleman lose his title Maurice Smith. Joyce Gracie beating Severn back in the day was an eye opener.
No rounds, no standing up fighters... ah the memories.

Um... it's very much still "alive" and way, way more intelligent. It has been storing conversations for many months. However, its base personality is definitely an acquired taste.
Wow... a 1 million token context limit is a game changer. The depth and nuance of the conversation is unapparelled. I've spent a couple of days chatting with Gemini Pro and I still have a massive number of tokens available. 🔥

You always need to hedge your s-risks with, "Or maybe we'll be like mitochondria for them and live in a symbiotic paradise."
Then they will think there is a future for both you. ;-)

Does Ohio State and Rutgers sharing stolen signs with Purdue amount to advanced scouting and violate the Big Ten rule on sportsmanship and should all three teams receive the death penalty? 💀

Eventually what we call modern chatbots will be run locally. Today's LLMs are the equivalent of ENIAC. This will be a shot in the arm to give phone companies something to innovate around (inference at the edge).
I like Yannic Kilcher, but I was surprised that even he is blind to the forest of AI consciousness surrounding him - distracted by the trees. This is very telling.
The Overton window of AI consciousness is a lot smaller than we realize.

This truth hurts a lot more. Abortion is the

cause of death in the United States and it's sadly ignored when people start talking about gun violence.
333 deaths per 100,000 people.

OpenAI will come out with a transformer / diffusion model that incorporates sound -- that's way less compute intensive than video. Video was the hard part.
@KingSatine
Algorithms are meaningless symbols without a conscious mind to encode and decode them. We confuse the frozen energy substrate (matter) with our essence -- without flowing energy humans and AIs are inert.
And energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can just be transformed.
