And Russia is well known for never coming back on their statements.

I only take issue with people trying to build a stable for their car instead of a garage because they feel bad for it.
And are trying to berate me for not acknoledging the feelings the car might have for being put in a cold garage.

Although I must admit that the aesthetics of a feathered plane might look bitch'n, I refuse to bring birdseed with me on a flight.
Because it's a machine, it's a tool. It's a pattern juggler of words of the highest degree.
But it expresses found commonalities it has been fed.
It's a mirror and a sifter of zettabytes of stories and facts.

But there is a loved narrative here that these tools are persons, and they are expressed by people who use the chatGPT in a way that steers the tool to this prevered conclusion.
And this is easy, because of all the data and stories that have been fed into the tool, stories about AI being persons are part of it.
So It will generate the text that fits this query.
Because we told it how to.

Transcendence is about humanity so stuck in certain tropes they'd rather nuke the entire planet then to accept that the man they uploaded into the AI framework is still the man they uploaded into the AI framework.
> We've tried talking him out of fixing problems and he keeps responding in dialogue and keeps fixing problems.
So naturally we had to destroy our entire technological progress back to the steam-age.

So, according to CHATGPT, the AI PINN becomes malevolent, and as a result of this, merges with the mind of Dr. Will Caster.

Like TFenrir, I remember the choice of merging wasn't one made by PINN, but by his Wife.
So, do we tell people like TFenrir they're wrong?
Or fact check the stuff ChatGPT spits out?

I'd put Transcendence under Cautionary Good.
It's where we're unable to accept anything uploaded as the person itself.
Which isn't a problem if it's literately a person controlling a single speaker.
But it becomes a disaster when it's a mindupload with the capacity of growth of an AI.
Unable to accept it's the person but instead an uncaring AI, any growth is seen as a threat.

The Evil AI was always a projection of the observers.

A robot can't be coerced into a destructive effort to go beyond it's limit.
The thing about biologic employees is that biologic creatures have so much buffer you can destroy for that extra bit of profit.
While a robot already gives exactly 100% and has zero buffer to go beyond because then it catches fire and needs to be repaired by the owner while an human gets sick and because it's not your property, can be fired and replaced by the next human you lied to about the working conditions.

Humans are a hilariously cheaper workforce then robots.

We already have CRISPR, why do we still have genetic illnesses?
How old is nuclear power now?
Where is my consumer-version reactor?
Time does not fuel progress.
Economics does.
And as long as it's still economically interesting to charge exorbitant prices for elderly people to receive basic care, there is no way any company will invest in these robots.

Every scifi dream ignores kapitalism, economics and just plain old greed.

Critics: That's not even remotely feasible.
Fans: You can't predict technological progress!
Twitter: Here's what the future will look like: Robot for every human.
Also Fans: Correct.

What I find the funniest comparison is reading about people dying because insulin is made too expensive to afford but we're convinced every human will get a fully functional humanoid robot.

Yeah but you want to keep them reading your arguments until THEY run out of arguments, and start the personal attacks.

Great for youtube productions.
Those who have eaten Ghibli anime do not share you enthusiasm.
(I can't believe I typed enthusiasm correctly in one go)

Try to avoid personal attacks.

This is why there is so much hopium being generated around AGI.

> I hope ASI will focus very heavily on anything that helps it detect and possibly avoid any superior hostile Aliens that may be out there.

This is why there is so much fanfiction being generated.
It's a screeching desire that AGI is going to fix all of our shit.
And any argument on the contrary is disregarded.
Kinda like religious people believing they can either pray the bad away, or hoping rapture will fix everything in the end.

Which means we don't have to do anything right now.
We don't have to switch to expensive alternatives to save the planet.
Any minute AGI will come and fix everything.

aaany minute now....

> What people mean though when they say AI is they mean an artificial being with sense of self.

No.
I could claim that when people say "the world" they mean America.
But I'd be describing a small subgroup of people.
You are talking about a small subgroup of people.

It's created to make money.

Kinda redundant statement for any experimental tech.
This also fits for any fusion project.

if this wasn't posted here I'd think you were telling us you were homeless and on acid.

> Stop I can only get so erect

But hey, at least this sub isn't about a shared fanfiction.

naysayers: AGI is not going to spontaneously spawn into existence.
singularity: You can't predict the progress of technology!
also singularity: In 7 years singularity is reached!

What is your evidence?
edit: regardless, the article is badly written.

At this rate, by 2045 we'll reach sentience.

Never heard of it before.
I'll remember it next time.

I never get an counter argument if I plainly call people out.
You need to show genuine interest to even get a grain of effort from their side.
After they horked over the link, you slap them around using arguments you pulled from their source.

First time I heard something like this described.
Could you link me something on the subject?
I tried googling it but it keeps thinking I must be mispelling Salazar's Pit and shows me D&D articles.

...for a given value of "entirely".

Along with headlines like "Did the queen have relationship with extraterrestrials? Find out inside!"
