    "The further a society moves away from the truth, the more it will hate those who speak it." (George Orwell) The unforgettable John Lennon had prophesied it to us well over 40 years ago, "Our society is being run by insane people for insane purposes. I believe we are governed by madmen for mad purposes and I believe I must expect to be imprisoned as mad for expressing this. That's what's crazy about it." (John Lennon / 9.10.1940 - 8.12.1980) "Still you sit up there, you cowardly figures. Paid by the enemy, but a mockery to the people! But one day justice will prevail again. Then the people will judge, then God have mercy on you ! (Theodore Koerner) "Weapon and defense you. . . . powerful are the thoughts, rightly used." "Through iron times you will go, through cruel, hard, without sunny nature. It must not frighten you. For harder are ye. Through hollow emptiness you will go, through hours of seemingly lost meaning. It must not paralyze you. For you are full of meaning. Through raging storms you will go; everything, it seems, they tear away. It must not make you complain and tremble. For you are rich, yet within. Through the suffering of disappointment you will go, prepared by humanity. It must not bend you. For truly you are. Through manifold tribulations you will still go, and yet always prevail. For you are hope. And rightly trusting hope attracts my and the gods' powers. Therefore, remember this: Hope is strong at all times. Nothing then can conquer you. (Isaiah)

    though I agree with you all, in that he's quite articulate, the fact is he was asking for one more second, he needed one more second, cuz he had one more thing to say, the commentator relented because it's Edward Snowden and finally said "okay one sentence" meaning, fine, we're out of time but go... the premise that he was placed in pinch, is not correct, likely he had memorized what he wanted to close with, the lasting impression was either really important to him or Putin told him to say it, regardless signs of a very intelligent person, and again, I agree "he hit the pitch out of the park." with his message (and damn I hate it when people say that was AI created. cuz I don't like to be fooled. and never thought it was when I watched it, but I don't really know.)

    Not born human? Kinda like a transgender claiming not being born with the proper gender, just one assigned temporarily? It was obviously a rehearsed pro-transhumanist (read: anti-human) statement which he needed to impart to normalize the agenda. This only further confirms what I suspected all along, he’s an ‘anti-Establishment’ trojan horse set up by the Establishment, portrayed as a whistle-blower when all he did was serve as the deep state’s mouthpiece to let public know they already live in an Orwellian dictatorship with his limited hangout disclosures (things are light years beyond what he discusses). And yes I know I’m typing to a bunch of bots.

    ChatGPT is trained on data scraped from the internet, so it's publicly available. That doesn't mean they have the legal right to use all of that data, but it isn't trained on exclusive private data that OpenAI has collected. Additionally, OpenAI was not created with that name to deceive people, the thing is that the organisation's structure has changed since the time it was founded. The point made on ideally having the code and neural networks shared publicly as open source I think could be a great idea, worthy of serious consideration.

    Asimov's laws of robotics are not scientific laws, they are instructions built in to every robot in his stories to prevent them malfunctioning in a way that could be dangerous. The first law is that a robot shall not harm a human, or by inaction allow a human to come to harm. The second law is that a robot shall obey any instruction given to it by a human, and the third law is that a robot shall avoid actions or situations that could cause it to come to harm itself. Where these laws conflict, precedence is given to the first law, then the second law, with the robot's self-preservation taking last place. For example if a human ordered a robot to attack another human it would refuse to follow the order (first law takes precedence over second), but if a human ordered it to disassemble itself it would obey (second law takes precedence over third

    In a country that could very well be mine, a fly causes a small error in a report being printed by an old dot matrix printer. The result is the arrest, torture and death of the wrong person. When the error is detected, the head of the public department does not know what to do, so he asks for help from an inventive subordinate who is always dreaming that he is a hero who fights oppression and frees a beautiful captive woman. Ok... This is the plot of the movie Brazil (1985). When Artificial Intelligence is used to mine huge databases for malicious, political and authoritarian purposes, worse things can obviously happen. But this does not mean that the State will become more efficient. Perhaps it becomes more inefficient, because when small errors accumulate at the beginning of a computerized automated procedure, the result can be chaos at the end of the procedure when it has to become reality. No State can survive social chaos, and all have a limited ability to mobilize people to accomplish mundane tasks like arresting people. Imagine what would happen if the FBI's Artificial Intelligence demanded, for example, the issuance of 1 million arrest warrants in the same day in a single American city to avoid what would be considered an imminent social upheaval proven by the analysis of the databases? The very attempt to follow the AI recommendation would cause chaos that the State would try to avoid by mobilizing more resources than it has.

    So we don't die a meaningless existence for millenium. Have you ever watched the maze runner or heard of it. To me this world is like the maze, this puzzle we constantly keep trying to solve, but we keep dying each time. As we get closer a new issue arises (the maze changes). Too me it strikes me as this impossible problem. How can we fix our world if new issues keep arising faster then our own intelligence. All political ideologies have seemingly failed. Capitalism fails by corrupting politicians and forcing people to work for nothing, wealth inequality etc. Communism fails due to leaders flowing to the top. Anarchy fails due to mass murder and high crime. Fascism fails due to radical ideas that kill and torture millions prevail when one rules over all. Even a mix can still fail. Look at Norway or Sweden, they are much better then America with free healthcare and many people living their being more happier. But they still have people commiting suicide. So what I am saying, is we have always had the same level of suffering and prosperity. Throughout millennia. 20 years from now without AI, or as you say it "machines" we will be in the same position. Suffering and some propsering. But its the same. Nothing really has changed, only the ways we suffer. So what I mean by all of this. Is AI is a shift from this paradigm of humans always suffering, and being essentially helpless and hopeless. To something that I can see is much more ideologically utopian. Humanity could never independently create a system where everyone prospers equally, and suffering is minimized. That's because it requires a deep understanding of data, relationships, and so on. Humans can never even dream of this, and so we are forced to live with the boring gray as our everyday life. And sure maybe before AI I accepted all of this to be the truth. And if for whatever reason AI decided to fall apart, I will go back to this same mentality. But what AI brings, is a potential for a future that is much better then any human run future. A future where each and everyone of us can be optimized towards the most prosperous and minimize the least suffering. We know today it is already capable of deep understanding, it is capable of interpreting code, fulfilling tasks, doing things autonomously etc. So we already know in the future it should be great at those things. We know AI has seemingly been good throughout, and even opensource models which lack ethics training and RHLF tend to not be diabolic. So in the end, AI is really the only choice to get us out of this grey world we live in. If you don't believe this, then fine. But I like being optimistic, especially when I see a realistic path forward.

When a possible release of this loop comes, immediatly people state this is a bad idea because they don't understand it. Which then leads them back to preserving the current status quo. Preserving the loop of suffering. Even if you see our world as a glass half full (IE look towards the good parts) you are neglecting the fact that most people's overall happiness hasn't really changed, if not declined over the years.

    ChatGPT4 just made this for me, song lyrics with the combined style of Eminem and Edward Snowden on the topics mentioned here.. (Verse 1) Yo, it’s a world that's encrypted, systems conflicted, Eyes in the sky, they got us all predicted. Got our data on a hard drive, stored and scripted, Privacy invaded, rights restricted. In the name of safety, they got us all depicted, Like criminals in waiting, we're all afflicted. Every move we make, every word we've scripted, Big Brother's watching, we're all convicted. (Chorus) We're living in the shadows, under surveillance, Freedom's just a word, a forgotten fragrance. We're just pawns in their game, victims of their malice, In this digital world, we're losing balance. (Verse 2) We're in the matrix, no Neo, no Morpheus, Just algorithms, they got us in a chorus. Our voices silenced, they don’t wanna hear us, In a world of echoes, truth becomes a Taurus. They say it's for protection, but it's just a fortress, Walls closing in, freedom in a carcass. Censorship reigning, our words are worthless, In this dystopian world, we're just surplus. (Chorus) We're living in the shadows, under surveillance, Freedom's just a word, a forgotten fragrance. We're just pawns in their game, victims of their malice, In this digital world, we're losing balance. (Bridge) We gotta rise, gotta fight, no more silence, Expose the lies, break the cycle of compliance. Snowden showed us, it's time for defiance, In the face of tyranny, we gotta form alliance. (Verse 3) It's a digital battlefield, no place for the meek, Our information, they seek, our future, they tweak. Our voices censored, our options oblique, In this world of control, it's truth that we seek. (Chorus) We're living in the shadows, under surveillance, Freedom's just a word, a forgotten fragrance. We're just pawns in their game, victims of their malice, In this digital world, we're losing balance. (Outro) In the face of tyranny, let's find our valiance, Stand up for liberty, let's regain our balance. In the fight for privacy, there's no dalliance, In the end, it's about our own resilience.

    Our circuit for motivation is still taken from reptiles. We are envious, selfish and hate everything different and unknown. Creating a motivation and conscience layout for AI is a damn hard job.

    Don't you all remember that the late film director Stanley Kubrick fully addressed this worldwide "dilemma" we are now facing (if that word applies at all) in his visionary film "2001, A Space Odyssey", where mankind fell prey to AI having become its slave? (And his film dates back to 1968 surprisingly!) His outlook was all the way pessimistic and I must say I fully comply with that vision. Don't mess up with that which can't be messed!

    I'm tired of crackpot takes on AI. What the hell does crypto or decentralization have to do with the proliferation of intelligent systems? People fantasize and hype on about the doom and gloom aspects of AI, but everything I've heard from supposed experts (with the exception of a few) are not addressing the elephants in the room....that being the complete and utter destruction of the information sphere as well as the internet as a source of information. Forget about OpenAI, Google...in a very short period of time, we'll be running these models on home computers and our phones..(we already are) and.compared to a human, an AI can generate an order of magnitude more information...just imagine everyone running these models that integrate with the channels people use to communicate. You'll never know if you're talking to a person again, you'll never see anything online and be certain it's real. Hell, how would you know for sure this very comment wasn't AI generated? These models are nothing more than approximations of human generated information. They are not intelligent, but they give the illusion of intelligence. You have to ask yourself, is the destruction of the internet worth it for simple parlor tricks?

    @@Octwavian The has been flash crashes of the stockmarket in the past due to hundreds of automated trading bots reacting to market fluctuations. These bots are "simple" agents on thier own, but on aggregate result in complex / unpredictable behaviours when interacting with the market and other bots. The stockmarket itself is a very simple and narrow domain compared to the wider domains in which AI models can (and will) be applied. The dangers come in the form of unpredictable behaviours from countless disparate models interacting in complex domains....like social media where humans interact, and where human trends, politics, propaganda act as a dynamic system. We've already seen the result of social media algorithms syndicating relavant content (these algos are unsupervised learning models), it leads to echo chambers and political division. I ask you...what do you think will happen when everyone is interacting with these language, diffusion, video generation models? Do you think it will be fine? Will people adjust to the technology? How will people communicate if there's a more likely than not chance they're talking to or watching AI generated content? I don't mean fake news, i mean complete, personalized synthetic reality. This isn't far fetched...this technology exists now (albiet primitive). If you ask me, if you extrapolate current progress out 5 years, i don't think anyone could distingiush real vs synthetic content. It's the end of the internet, flooded with the hallucinations of these models.

    @@Octwavian I say "simple" parlor tricks because i know how to develop these models...im not hugely taken back by the percieved intelligence of LLM's (as even basic Markov models can give the appearance of insightful output based on encoded grammar rules). But yes, my concerns are mostly related to emergent behaviours when you take these models on aggregate. I keep thinking about Wolframs Rule 30. Look it up.

    Intriguing discussion - the point on expiration for models and algorithms is good, we need time and scope restrictions. These systems act faster than humans have the ability to discern. What’s the rush? Too far too fast in any direction causes suffering. Temporal systems have no time stamp.

    28:23 you are so right about this. If these models try to learn from the overall more sad, easily "manipulated," great ash conformity experiment "subject, children, people who think they know what they are talking about, but usually don't- i don't know how to describe it right now, and "crazy" people of reddit then it's going to be bad... really bad. I "loved" your wording about "stoning" 😂😂😂😂 SmarterEveryday did a youtube video about how "stupid" reddit is- although they didn't make it out to be stupid. Destin, the channel owner, did that in the latter half of the video by showing how easily language can be manipulated. I didn't write how I usually write because I have been feeling bad mentally lately, but heck, it's a *KZread* comment. please don't take it too seriously. I'm only human.
