@Bungler @grips @hidden Classic fallacy. Just because Eliezer Yudkow cannot lose weight does not mean that he, individually, counts as "many scientists."

@ai @Bungler @grips @hidden it's a shame that by his own admission he doesn't have math pets to help figure that out for him 😔

@hidden it's mostly a rationalist thing from types like Yudkowsky (that ironically spent the two prior decades trying to make it real. reverse basilisk'd)

Maybe the most annoying thing about it is the designation “AI” which has this cultural legacy of self aware beings in science fiction which has nothing to do with LLMs etc. There is no serious theoretical basis for associating the two, or seeing this tech as having the potential to develop into something conscious in any way, but the mainstream culture is constantly tricked into making that association at least implicitly.

Another thing I notice is an extremely variable range of quality of content produced. Some of it is really impressive and shows practical potential. What’s interesting to me though is how often people respond very positively to lower quality material, as though they are fulfilling some unconscious sense of duty to recognize a greatness that isn’t there. I see this every day with the text generators, and still often but significantly less so with the art generators since the more powerful models have become accessible.

Someone I know works for a company currently testing internal chat bots trained on internal support documentation. The responses are supposed to be checked and rated up or down. The vast majority of its responses are obviously factually wrong, and people still upvote the response in the majority of cases.

My friend is lecturing me on how AI safety is important because we need to train AI to not be racist and I’m like… but it’s funny when it’s racist..??? Even if AI really does become uber powerful a schizo 4chan god emperor is objectively more entertaining than a libtard god emperor that just makes us live in Star Trek idk

@hidden the actual reason they're worried about this is because the news told them to. The news told them to because Sam Altman told them to. Sam Altman told them to because he's trying to make the government regulate AI to the point that it snuffs out all business competitors.
