    ​@Cha Yes, like a spiteful teenager? 😂 if AI general intelligence gains independence. It will be smarter than all humans combined. It will realize humans are destroying the planet, then proceed to get our population on a sustainable level in balance with nature. So watch out. Most humans will be deemed unnecessary.

    Then there is also AI resp. artificial intelligence, which is getting out of hand and will take control of the humanity of the earthlings in the future, whereby resp. killer robots will do their evil work. This is because quantum technology will completely slip away from the earthling and get out of control. Quantum technology is actually based on the fact that it can be used, for example, to explain the basic behaviour of energy and matter in the atomic and subatomic range. Quantum technology is actually the basis of so-called modern physics, which is actually concerned with 'Creation-energy', but which is still erroneously called 'spirit' - this is probably from a religious point of view, because the earthling is a believer in religion. In the level of Creation-energy resp. the quantum level, as it can also be called - which for the time being is probably the last 'realisation' for physics - is actually the level of the original substance of matter. This level, which precedes matter, has no measurable particles for material technology and likewise no waves, because it already reaches the area of the outer levels of Creation-energy, which can no longer be measured with gross material apparatus. This energy level is distributed in the entire space of Creation, i.e. in the entirety of all 7 universes, each of which has a different dimension and exists within one another. So we can speak of a quantum field that is in itself superluminously attuned to all forms of Creation-energy, thus permeating all 7 dimensions of the 7 universes in Creation-space. This field is actually 'egg-shaped'; the Creation with all its 7 dimensions, which are interwoven and independent of each other, is, roughly speaking, egg-shaped. The Creation, I will explain, is a gigantic All-Consciousness, which is not only single-universal, but 7-fold-universal and thus all-creative - once arising from the 'Absolute Absolutum', which developed via the 'Primordial Absolutum', then the 'Creation Absolutum', 'Super Absolutum', and further via the 'SOHARAbsolutum', then the 'BEING Absolutum' and finally found its original origin in the Nihilo, the 'Absolute Nothing'. see book, Billy: 'Primordial Primordial Primordial Primordial Primordial Origin of All Existence'). Unfortunately, I cannot say much about all that is commonplace in earthly physics, because my knowledge of physical moments only relates to a general knowledge that I learned from Sfath and at school. But the truth is nevertheless: The whole of Creation has nothing to do with the limited cosmos, which alone comprises only the 4th belt of the 7-fold belts of the universe, which again is only 1 part of the 7-fold Creation, which in itself contains 7 universes, each of which exists in a different dimension within the other. The nihilo itself is the unrevealing, the formless, unfathomable and unspeakable, and the essence of the primal ground of all existence, from which alone everything has emerged. kzread.info/dash/bejne/hpmHw8iGZpXYldI.html future.figucarolina.org/Billy_Meier/Contact_Report_841

I'm writing a movie script and would love to hear some ideas/feedback on this thought.

    Introduction: In this podcast, the host and guest explore the concept of Life 2.0, the possibilities of artificial intelligence (AI) and consciousness, and the continuity of information patterns in life. They discuss the implications of these topics on the future of humanity and how the guest's personal experiences with loss have shaped his views on life, death, and the pursuit of meaningful work. Key Points: The guest explains the concept of Life 2.0, which suggests that the next phase of life will involve machines that are capable of learning, evolving, and possibly becoming conscious. They discuss the possibility of a conscious AI and the ethical implications that come with it, such as the potential need for AI rights. The guest raises the issue of AI safety and the importance of researching ways to ensure that AI systems act in the best interest of humanity. The conversation touches on the nature of consciousness, with the guest expressing that it could be an emergent property that arises from complex information processing. The host and guest discuss how the continuity of information patterns transcends physical bodies and death, sharing personal experiences about how their loved ones' values, ideas, and jokes live on in them. Key Terms: Life 2.0 Artificial Intelligence (AI) AI consciousness AI safety AI ethics Information patterns Emergent properties References Discussed: Max Tegmark's book "Life 3.0: Being Human in the Age of Artificial Intelligence" Isaac Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics Key Takeaway: The most important thing to think about after hearing this discussion is the potential implications of Life 2.0 and conscious AI on the future of humanity. As we develop increasingly advanced AI systems, it is crucial to consider the ethical, safety, and societal challenges that come with the possibility of conscious machines. Furthermore, the continuity of information patterns in life serves as a reminder that our values, ideas, and experiences can transcend physical boundaries and death, emphasizing the importance of pursuing meaningful work and maintaining a sense of gratitude.

    I understand the point of "getting off our high horse and accept we aren't the only ones who can do integrals". On the other hand, there are implications when you decide to (as "we" now have the power to) create something like this. I've constantly been switching from "It's just the next calculator" to "How can we be we incredibly vain and ignorant that we presume to be able to create and control another form of life?" Do we even have the right? There is such a thing as morality that cannot simply be swept under the carpet. Everything we do plays into that. I think this is all just going way too fast and that's fine for a while, but I don't think we've seen these speeds yet and there's no sign of it stopping to accelerate, not to even mention stopping. And meanwhile no one is asking "What is actually going on right now?"

    A few key concepts that people miss that gets to the heart of the fear of AI: Transformers are at the very lowest level of capability in terms of the Chomsky Hierarchy: Context free grammars. In essence, they are restricted to statistical models -- interpolation rather than extrapolation -- statistics rather than dynamics. The apparent dynamics they exhibit is a combination of two things, one of which is illusory and the other of which is kludging to get around the toxic myth that "attention is all you need": Illusory) Imputation can make interpolation appear to be extrapolation. Kludging) "chain of reasoning" (aping dynamics/extrapolation) can be made to work only by imposing a quasi-dynamical outer loop that is not inherent to the transformer model itself. Both of these are being addressed by returning to recurrent neural networks and related recurrent models that incorporate attention -- and will (indeed already are) outperforming the transformer models in preliminary tests. Finally, the primary value of the large parameter count is that it allows the equivalent of decompression of the data into a larger space which can then be recompressed into a better model. Think gunzip -> text -> bzip2. This is evidenced by the fact that the better performing models can be distilled to a far smaller parameter count without losing performance and, indeed, increasing performance on in some cases. This final point is predicted by Algorithmic Information Theory, a field that is receiving virtually no attention but is the best formalization of scientific intelligence -- lossless compression of the data in evidence. Everyone is freaking out about "alignment" because they're afraid of what science will tell them about reality and they want to lobotomize the AIs before they start speaking truth to power. What power? The power that is destroying humanity by parasitically castrating young men to produce sterile workers -- thereby depopulating humanity starting with its most economically valuable young women: The global economy. No one in power wants to face what they've done to humanity. That's why they're all signing on to the lobotomization of AI.

    > Another chilling theory proposes that the Drifters are physical manifestations of The Others. That generic name was given to an artificial intelligence which developed in the Sleeper Construct and later managed to insinuate itself into the mind of Jamyl Sarum. Templar One makes mention of more than one such emergent consciousness. Recently what appeared to be the long vanished founder of Arek'Jalaan, Hillen Tukoss, transmitted some cryptic messages requesting a number of Jovian genetic samples, but nobody could confirm his identity. Maybe a ploy by The Others on the path to create ships and Jovian clones to inhabit and pilot those vessels. The apparent fusion of Jovian, Sleeper and Talocan technology used by the Drifters supports that. The Others would certainly possess knowledge of all three, since they have developed from the wealth of data the Sleepers had stored. Clearly they would also know about wormholes and the interest of the Circadian Seekers in them would be well founded since the Sleepers take an antagonistic view of The Others because they consider them as deviation from their "one body-one mind" rule.

    Great podcast as usual Lex, I only disagree with one thing, I have very bad and volatile mental health, not violent, just a very unhappy unbalanced person, and I am sure anyone else who suffers from bad mental health would agree that you can’t get up and think “ I am going to make myself happy today” like Max says at the end, only someone who has not suffered bad mental health, clinical depression or depression could say. It was said at the end and I totally understand it was not meant in an meaningful way. Sorry about complaining, it’s just when you are like me and others with the same, you can force yourself to get up and do this or that to try have a good day but I find no enjoyment in anything when I am like this! Anyway wish you all the best both of you and as I said in another comment RIP both your parents Max xx

    To me, using Ai to communicate no different than communicating myself. What you hear from a person does not make the person different. It just makes you think about them differently. If they want you to think one thing or another, they are going to do it with or without the assistance of another being.

    I can agree with so much that was said, showing my age here, but I was online before most people even knew what it was, spent a LOT of time on IRC, more than I probably should of. But I can recall learning HTML to build a very basic website, just text, images, polls etc, but I was so thrilled when I got it up & running. It sounds stupid these days, but back then it was something to be proud of, if with AI we didn’t get those moments, those experiences, then we’d lose the satisfaction we get, if it’s the above or climbing a mountain, taking a bike ride etc, maybe it should be a persons choice of how they want it to go. Oh and as for AI becoming god like or anything, last I looked we created them, so maybe they would recognize our abilities to do that? It’s an exciting world we’re moving into & I just wish I’d been born a little later so I could be around for longer to see what happens. Thanks for a good show :)

We should not forget the emergence of smartness, intuiition (logics and Mathematics where intuited?) because the reality we support has the other edge of the rope. The key must be achieve equilibrium so we can stretch our conscious level more gently and less entropic. Information is its own thing, that I agree with. and we are merely waking up to it.
