First They Ignore You, Then They Laugh at You, Then They Attack You, Then You Win

>I'm hoping though that inference costs will come down by the time the game is finished.

Genius. This is exactly what will happen, and I'm glad someone has the forethought to develop the product, before the underlying technology is ready, because it will be there.

Yea I've had this thought also. I think a multimodal LLM will be the "brain" of every complex AI system we create. The fact that our brains have multiple compartments make me think we may need a bunch of different AIs. Although a lot of that is to do with our biological mech walkers.

Seems like it's going that way for sure, but I guess anything can happen.

The human brain proves there's a hell of a way to go.

Remember, you're judging this based on people who are dieing in their 80s today, think about what life was like 60 years ago when they were in their 20s, open coal fires, smoking and passive smoking, little to no understanding of health and fitness (general population), little to no health and safety at work regulations, little to no enforcement of FDA regulations, little to no understanding of the effects of alcohol, obesity etc. Not to mention the effect of caloric restriction, intermittent fasting, Metformin, yamanaka factors, resveratrol, these will have a compounding effect to the point I believe anyone born 1980s+ will probably have an average life span closer to 100 than 80. That's assuming no further medical advancements between now and then.

Breaking speed of light?

Not yet.

But yes, eventually.

😂 love this, might include it in a new dystopian drama

Yea, could be wrong I suppose, anything can happen. Just seems a lot is changing right now, and most people don't experience change like we will.

Either UBI, or what my AI pet will make for me. failing both of those ideas, 99.9% of the rest of the population will be in the same boat, so I'm looking at a world wide violent revolution, where we take the wealth created by AI for ourselves.

Third option is looking less and less likely by the day (most people actually want to look after others, and the democratisation of these technologies is forcing prices down), but I'm ready to fight for the survival of myself and family if necessary. I do believe abundance is not only possible, but exceedingly likely in the near term.

"And since your going to live forever, you can pay that off over 100 years at 12 grand per year"

I'd take that deal all the live long day.

Even if it is 50, and that's pessimistic I think, you will get life extension therapies before actual longevity escape velocity, so I'm expecting someone like myself 38 years old, to live atleast another 80-100 years.

Who cares anymore, let them say what they want, meanwhile gpt4 will actually be solving problems.

That delay kills me, far too long. I'm guessing gpt5 will have to be multimodal with sound so can recognise words and doesn't need to process into text

If it repeated training data nearly verbatim, hallucinations would not be an issue.

This is not how it's working.

>Because in the end, consequences are what matters not what they are called

This is is all that matters. Call it what you like, it's not going to stop it taking your job

This is the answer.

Considering life on this planet went through atleast 5 major extinction events and took 4 billion years to create creatures intelligent enough to leave the planet, it's likely that space faring civilizations are extremely rare. Now let's give a low range estimate that the first intelligent creatures arrived approximately 4 billion years after the big bang, that gives them at the very maximum, a 9 billion light year sphere of radio broadcast. Given that the observable universe is 93b light years accross, that first civilization would have only sent out radio waves in 10% of the universe, which means we could very easily be in a part of space that it hasn't reached yet.

This all falls apart if FTL is achieved, but I suspect if that's the case, then it won't really matter.

Hahaha nice someone else has figured it out 😂

Great post. I was about to counter that religion would require some kind of worship, but there's religions such Buddhism that requires no such worship.

Atleast AI can make accurate predictions for the next character in a line of text, which is better than any religion has predicted 🤣

Fucking wow!

My guy, correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't it outperform humans, in everything but social sciences?...
