There's a certain liberal transhumanist optimistic view of the world that isn't just not corresponding to materiality but it is almost idealistic in their assumptions of technology.

I am at a crossroads about AI and the recent a developments in tech. Our reality is changing faster than we can really understand/, assimilate

Large language models such as gpt3-4 can be thought of as to have good Intuition. Every idea they know is a statistical weight linked to other weights, and answering a question is more or less a curve fitting exercise, or pushing a vector through a matrix. It's a 1 step reflexion.

This, and the "self- reflection" concept (paper came out last week, it improves the output of all LLM by around 20%), brings planning and memories and multiple step reflexion to the godlike intuition of current LLMs.

Sounds about right- actually that is a multi-season plot arc in the wb show The 100.

Or alternately, they'll propose all sorts of wrong headed ways of "fighting back" against the machines to show that we're all in this together

We'll just make another AI that's capable of diagnosing and fixing issues with our current AI, problem solved.

But can it do hands INcorrectly in a really cool way? Or render an image that looks like a fish but MEANS hand in context? Checkmate, ai generated art.

Development primarily funded by that crypto-fascist Peter Thiel.

Indeed.

Conditions seem primed for this scenario: the ai takeover bait and switch. What better way to deflect blame for problems than for those at the top of hierarchical power structures to act as if ai has "taken over" while they actually retain control of it. "Nothing we can do," they'll say. Or alternately, they'll propose all sorts of wrong headed ways of "fighting back" against the machines to show that we're all in this together. They can even pull the plug and we all lose it when it doesnt shut down even though the real plug was never pulled.

I hope ai turns us all into grey goop just to spite him.

Thanks, I will replace it

Oh my gad

Wow, what a savior. He's basically helping Microsoft secure the AI's vulnerabilities before hackers can actually exploit them. Bravo, lackey.

The Peoples' Pipe Dream

Depicting him forcefully resisting and running away is giving him too much credit.

Omfg. They are a Skynet collaborator.

According to their own (Microsoft's) marketing, right.

It's integrated into search engines, so you'll be impacted browsing the web on work computers.

There is some bot on telegram that allows you to use chatgpt.
Of course telegram is not the best for anonymity,
but maybe there is a way to avoid tracking like using an untracked phone number but I can't tell you more about it

It was indeed reference to Asimov's robotics but I don't think there ever will be something reassembling the 3 laws and I agree with you, the current situation prevents anything similar to it to be implemented.

But I believe that for language models you can somehow trick them as they did to microsoft one, but with time this will be obsolete too I guess..

Dunno if this is what you're referring to, but the 3 Laws of Robotics have not been applied yet, as far as drones are being built and used to harm and kill humans. Neither Microsoft or the MIT dorks got a reason to care about it, as for them AI and drone development only means more profits/career advancements.

Perhaps these very brilliant techies will need some major slaughter or nightmare situation for them to get a grip on reality.

I tried to use it to check it out. Was curious. Apparently I need to make an account with one of those trillion dollar tech giants. No thx.
