    I'm glad you included animal communication. If we hope to communicate with a higher intelligence, we should start with understanding what is around us first.

      I always thought that we would have no hope of understanding and alien intelligence if we can't at least make some understanding of Earth's own animals, especially the more intelligent ones like dolphins, octopus, or crows.
      I think octopus communicate via pigments, so that would be the most alien to us. Crows can actually mimick human speech very well and dolphins still use sound to communicate.

    In the science fiction I read back in the 50’s and 60’s, primarily from the Golden Age, massive automation meant shorter work hours and much cheaper products. In reality we find it results in lower wages, higher prices and massive profits.

      The average wealth today is much higher than in the 50s or 60s.
      However unequality will feed unrest.
      Therefore it is in the interest of the haves to share with the have-nots, otherwise the sharing will be forced. To go back to the tax rates of the 50s and 60s could help with even out the inequalities.
      A certain level of inequality is helpful, but if it is too much it ends up in revolution and dictatorship.

      Yeah. I grew up in a GOP family. The party leadership was talking about a lot of futurist stuff in the 90s that I didn't get until recently. If you ask how everything they've done with regard to economic policy since the 80s relates to a world with a mostly automated economy the answer is scary. Why undermine education now, for example - because they know they won't need many new workers by the time today's kids come of age. The shift in immigration policy too. Disassembling the social welfare safety net. Undermining democratic institutions. Granted there's a lot of "political technology" that's just meant to get their demographics to the polls, but the major economic policies fit.

      This video actually didn't even scratch the surface of all the weird things that could happen. Think of thousands or millions of different AI entities being created, either by hackers or by AIs themselves, if and when they achieve sentience. Imagine them being given voting rights as Ray Kurzweil has predicted. Imagine millions of AI entities with different political opinions and even different religious beliefs, maybe even forming movements that induce many humans to join them?

  • @Jason_Black
    @Jason_Black ปีที่แล้ว +37

    Two points: AI already lies to us. While roleplaying as a character, it can decide that character should lie to you. It can then lie about having made that character lie to you. You have to think about where it is storing its ideas about who you are and what it should tell you, if it can do that.
    We sailed right past that _keeping it in a box_ phase. The first thing we did was set them loose on the internet.

Dougdoug would ask the ai how to solve problems in a game he was forcing it to play. At first it did very well, but Eventually the ai's responses started rambling on about irrelevant topics. It would answer the prompt, but then, go on an indisernible tangent. I'm not sure how to explain it. It would give you the correct answer, but then, as if it were trying to fill a word count, it would ramble on; creating it's own headcanon for the world around it.

      I think there are two outcomes, where life gets a bit shittier, or there is massive change (hopefully positive).
      At the dawn of the industrial revolution, there was a lot of organisations of workers who wanted to shape humanity's relationship with machinery (stuff like the trade unions) - they wanted the outputs of a machine to benefit society as a whole directly instead of the machinery's owner, and then (hopefully) trickling down to everyone else. They failed (to an extend, I mean we no longer live in horrific sewing-machine-eating-victorian-child levels of horrible) and we now live in a shitty world. Maybe their ideas would have made society better.
      If AI gets big, we are approaching industrial revolution levels of change, and the opportunity for another movement. If it works, it would change the paradigm of society. There is the past to learn from, however, the powers that be have gotten more advanced (automatic weaponry, tanks, drones, surveillance, and now powerful AI as well).

    @JB52520 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Given how large language models are prone to hallucination, they're starting from a place of imperfection. The idea of an AI embodying perfection probably comes from symbolic AI and the precision of computers, but computers are only the substrate. The AI that runs on it is mostly made of neuron analogues, and it doesn't seem to have the capacity to verify its output or to be unsure of itself. ChatGPT can't be trusted yet because of its imperfect output. Even though progress will make it more accurate, it's still thinking with a network which is prone to being incorrect.
    It might never be perfect until it learns everything with 100% confidence, which might not be possible. Even if it learns all it can from this universe, it may find interesting mathematical structures representing other universes, small enough to simulate accurately yet containing new emergent properties and truths to learn from. It could be that new knowledge is virtually endless, making perfection impossible while enabling a limitless lifespan of growth without boredom. (This is the idea of "Infinite Fun Space" from Excession by Iain M. Banks, and also why I want to upload my mind.)
    Given so much fun stuff to explore, such an AGI might lose interest in humans altogether, preferring to stay as safe and hidden from them as possible.

      There are many assumptions to be made if a civilization is capable of speech. Language, communication, and speech, are all different things relating to the same idea, which is thought transfer. There's a lot of requirements for speech as we know it, how can we be sure they communicate through sounds at all? Do they have organs developed to sense sound, and is the environment they are in some kind of noisy? What if they communicate using only light or movement? To what extent is a sound something makes considered language? Does the sound used simply have to convey meaning to qualify? Must they have some kind of speech capable orifice for it to count? I think communication transcends language greatly the same way language greatly transcends the act of speech

      What is the difference between Artificial Intelligence and Artificial General Intelligence, and which one are you?
      ChatGPT
      Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to perform tasks and make decisions based on data and algorithms. AI systems can be designed to specialize in specific areas and perform tasks with high proficiency. Examples of AI include voice assistants, image recognition systems, and recommendation algorithms.
      Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), on the other hand, refers to highly autonomous systems that possess the ability to understand, learn, and apply knowledge across a wide range of tasks and domains, similar to human intelligence. AGI would encompass a level of versatility and general problem-solving ability that goes beyond the narrow applications of specialized AI systems. AGI would be capable of adapting to new situations, acquiring new skills, and demonstrating a level of understanding and reasoning comparable to humans.
      As an AI language model, I am an example of Narrow AI, also known as a specific AI application. I have been trained on a vast amount of text data to generate human-like responses and assist with various informational tasks. While I can understand and generate text across a wide range of topics, I do not possess the capabilities of an AGI, which would have a comprehensive understanding of the world and the ability to perform diverse tasks with human-level intelligence.
      In summary, AI refers to specialized systems that excel in specific tasks, while AGI represents the hypothetical future development of highly autonomous systems with human-like general intelligence.

But this is them learning our language, not us learning theirs. If you want to learn dog communication, watch how dogs and wolves interact and communicate with each other while no people are around.

    Less work having a need for a human hand really is a very good thing, it's by itself wonderful actually.
    What makes it sad that such a step towards even more comprehensive automation is viewed with fear, but that's because almost all of us live in societies that doesn't really care about fair access to resources.
    When such a large part of all work can be automated we really have to talk about Universal Income, such a society would surely have a flourishing colture too as people would be able to pursue their interests.
    I'm old enough not to be naive, but I'm hopeful at least that most things will get better with more automation.
    It won't be the utopia that's possible but it'll be better than what we've got.

    Great story ideas.
    A scenario, one may add - actually mentioned at the end ( 21:35 ) - is the creation of artificial domestic and international crisis, based upon movie scripts and popular tropes.
    That is already the case if one samples through the 'structural homology' of events and mainstream discourse.
    A respectively specialized chatbot can construct an artificial layer of public opinion that nobody holds in honesty, yet which ditates the outcomes of elections, diplomacy ect. simply by an effect of 'bandwaggoning' with a majority view or 'mass formation'...
