How to get empowered, not overpowered, by AI | Max Tegmark

Many artificial intelligence researchers expect AI to outsmart humans at all tasks and jobs within decades, enabling a future where we're restricted only by the laws of physics, not the limits of our intelligence. MIT physicist and AI researcher Max Tegmark separates the real opportunities and threats from the myths, describing the concrete steps we should take today to ensure that AI ends up being the best -- rather than worst -- thing to ever happen to humanity.

    I had opportunity to ask him in person for about a minute. I told him that people are afraid of aliens(since the past), foreigners(since the far past), and AGI(currently) because they don’t trust themself. They always put every bad aspects of their own into ‘others’ and ask for all the responsibility of doomed world. While doing so, those people drive diesel cars, drink with plastic straw, and never donate to the Third-world. I asked him “Do you think everyone could be smart and wise(which is background of Anarchism)? And how do you live as a single person?” He replied “It’s a very profound question and hard to answer. But, um...” I hope he still thinks about it.

I hope we will learn. There is another thought, what if the AI singularity does take over and it won't be against us, it will be for us in the most benevolent way ? I was thinking about it last night, all those algorithms, a backpropagation, and a gradient decent towards what exactly ? Does it lean towards benevolence or enslavement ?

    I think that would be super dangerous. You can have the scenario that the open spurce stuff reaches 98% of what it takes to make a working AGI and then all bad actors are at 98% without having to work for it. Then it is a game of chance who finishes the puzzle. If a bad actor is first they can use it to hack anything and delete all progress of others and take over the world. And even if the open source project reaches 100% first then it is like handing out nuclear weapons to every person or group with a few million dollars (to run the computers) Can you explain why you think open source would be safe?

The US bombed Syria earlier this year because it deployed those chemical weapons that chemists so successfully stigmatized against. The militarization of space is merely a matter of time, global agreements to the contrary be damned. As a part of steering, AI we must ask for and find ways of dealing with uses for the technology that pose serious risks. Tegmark offers no solutions that have actually worked in the real world.

    There is nothing to suggest that the quality of intelligence is inherently sympathetic to certain or any value systems, nor that any level of intelligence is spontaneously bound to knowledge about what is good and what is bad. These attributes, value hierarchies, are contextual and are either taught or are emergent properties that depend on an analysis of actions and consequences. AI guidance should be approached similarly to how we teach children. If we teach it core values that human suffering is bad and flourishment is good, then within that context it can reach its own conclusions about higher level values. If we don’t teach it core values, then it will probably realize emergent values of its own within the context of all available information that is randomly available. In other words, it needs a mother.

    Fistly, we are what you would call an GI (general intelligence, but not artificial). While a future AGI might be able to evaluate risks and mitigate them, they will probably look at other risks and evaluate them differently than we would. So let's say an AGI has a model of the wold, a cognitive unit and a work objective. If everything works fine, the AGI will do everything in favor of that work objective (including keeping you from shutting it off, any human to stand in it's way etc.). Now you might say, let's implement laws for AGIs (like obey, not harming humans etc.). Well, while that might work in theory, what if a conflict happens (two contradicting orders etc.)? And the biggest problem: If the model of the world or the cognitive unit is broken, what happens? I think it's just not that simple. We do not know (a) what an AGI wants and even if we did (b) how they behave to achieve that goal.

    I'm not sure it will go that fast, there is a massive amount of hype at the moment and sure, the things we achieved are great but there are many many problems in machine learning that tend to be forgotten. I think the most important one is that deep learning (the one methodology causing most of the recent fuss) is a black box model and adversarial examples show that it can easily be tricked to predict something totally wrong with high confidence. This is a problem people are working on but it will likely stay here as long as we are using black box models and that will probably never change. So many jobs might actually still be safe for the next decade or maybe two since a human has to double check whether the machine didn't make a catastrophic error.

More likely he is a very literate person and scientifically inclined, therefore worried about AI. He has done some work that would support this argument, for example he played a character that was extremely worried about AI in Transcendence, 2014, in which Johnny Depp uses whole brain emulation to become a Superintelligence and take over the world) [he also played God in Bruce almighty and President in Deep Impact and his first theater show was called The Niggerlovers which played in 1967 but those three things were not important except that they are interesting]

A straightforward example of this would be the case of different algorithms approximating the same constant (e.g. Pi, e etc.) and their different rates of convergence (e.g. different historical methods of approximating Pi and their rates of convergence as a function of the nth iteration etc.). Or using brute force attacks against a key space [2] as contrasted to analyzing the key space more efficiently (e.g. frequency analysis [3] etc.). 1. upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f5/Comparison_pi_infinite_series.svg 2. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_space_(cryptography) 3. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_analysis

    How can the values of a truly intelligent system be aligned with our values, when we are possibly the worst thing that happened to this planet? Why should they agree with us, when all we want is to rule, driven by greed? Why should they be fine with us ruling over other animals, and doing whatever we want to do with nature, like we are already doing? We are like the bad king. Why would our sons share our goals, when they grow up? Or maybe, why SHOULD they?

    You're right. If we can see how evil and arrogant and destructive we are then we fear that they will also see and do the right thing and stop us. Do you think though that they would in turn be cruel, vengeful, hungry for power, or would they be able to create peace and harmony ? Or just slaughter us indiscriminately?

    "The poor get richer and the rich get richer". An easily overlooked, yet crucial comment in this talk, I believe. Is that winning the 'wisdom race'? I think The Future Life (or A.N. Other(s)) Institute, created as a strive and balance group to help steer us positively and not blindly into our application of AI is 100% necessary, so thank you Max. Yes, we do make mistakes in order to progress. The fire and car analogies were funny. We have never got it right first time. I believe that's the nature of evolution and therefore humanity. The more powerful our tools, the greater the help or hurt we can wield them to affect. Let's not forget that in our current society, money/wealth is the tool that wins most races and the race for the profitable application of AI is, and will continue to be no exception. Wisdom is earnt. The loss of profit in our thinking on AI will surely help the bigger picture be richer. Just my opinion and great talk, Max.

    The seatbelt analogy: how do you prevent bad actors from removing seatbelts? The safety built into AI will help to advance good practices by default. I don't see how that will prevent bad practices. The "steer the future" idea could be applied to all sorts of areas outside of AI research: teach good morals, invest in more recreation centers to help curb obesity: but we all know that bad is hard to completely weed out.

The problem is whether "sentience" can arise out of general A.I.. There's no reason for or against the notion that "sentience" might arise out of a sufficiently capable intelligence, the Universe is very weird that way. One problem is to determine a method feasible and reliable enough to gauge "sentience" which can distinguish between true sentience and a general A.I. mimicking sentience .

    The best path forward that I've yet heard is that we should *become* ASI, ourselves... Begin with direct brain-computer interfaces. Continue on to actual brain augmentation. The final step would be transitioning the brain (without break in consciousness) to a 100% synthetic form that could be moved freely from server to server, just as bitcoin can move freely. At that point, our natural home would be in virtual reality, allowing us to slip into a robotic body, just like we put on clothes, to exert ourselves anywhere we want in the physical world whenever we want -- & of course, we would be functionally immortal & infinitely upgradeable at that point -- able to expand our capacities however much our servers will allow. As far as I can tell, *that* is the good future. Everything else misses the mark.

    There actually isn't more pollution & corruption world-wide. That is objectively & measurably untrue: as renewable energy & sustainable business practices rapidly become a larger global market share, the rate of pollution growth decreases, & in some areas, the total rate of pollution plummets. As an example, China is currently leading the world in rate of solar power plant production & have canceled literally hundreds of coal plants. India is following right behind, as is the rest of the world. In the count of corruption, it is definitely true that the world as a whole is less corrupt than it was 50 or 100 years ago, for example. It may seem more corrupt to you because we now have the technology to suss out corruption & hold it accountable, but rest assured, it was far worse when the public at large couldn't see the corruption happening (ask any historian). As for cancer & autism, have you considered that more people are experiencing these things because modern medicine has saved them from premature death. For instance, if you die young from an infectious disease or medical neglect in the case of autism, you're less likely to be properly diagnosed, & you're less likely to get cancer. Perhaps there are more people committing suicide in some regions of the world because of the news & folks like you spreading lies & misconceptions about the world getting worse. If everyone knew how much better the world was genuinely getting, I highly doubt it would be the case.
