    Neil view on AI seem a bit naive. First there is no shifting goal posts, but mainly confusion about rapid evolution in the field AI. As impressive as all recent advancement seem, we are still talking about narrow AI which is in a sense is still a very elaborate calculator, a tool. The fear is about artificial General intelligence (AGI) and ultimately ASI. The concerns are that (1) We begin to see sparks of AGI (2) We do not understand how AI work any more than we understand our own brains, nor what constitutes consciousness, and likely will not be able to tell when or if AI passed the singularity threshold (3) there are a lot of incentives to developed AI, from the usual economic incentives to global power arm race, which may result in AGI created intentionally or unintentionally. (4) Contrary to Neil claim, we already building AI robots including in human form, form companionship to military application. (5) many AI systems are given autonomus functions and are able to collect information from the outside world not just the internet. (6) AI are being integrated into more and more system to deal with vast amount of data, arguably an AI integrated into something like Chinese extensive surveillance would be as close possible to omnipotence. (*) btw to expand on #3 even current narrow AI can exacerbate many problems on the internet (from your usual scams to disinformation, propaganda) and it becomes much more accessible, able to run by anyone on any laptop (lets see you turning that off) and without any safety measures. err.. I kinda runoff here no time to improve I am already in the tldr area sorry

    Very serious experts are very concerned about existential risks from AI. You should interview Paul Christiano, former head of OpenAI's large language model team and current head of the Alignment Research Center. You could also interview Robert Miles (runs *the best* KZread channel on AI risk), Richard Ngo (on OpenAI's governance team), Ajeya Cotra (Senior Research Analyst at Open Philanthropy), or Kelsey Piper (journalist at Vox). They are all knowledgeable/expert enough to have very fruitful conversations about AI risk.

    I'm no AI specialist but I think its pretty likely there's at least some reason to be concerned because it is genuinely very different from past technological revolutions. This is the first time we will have a highly generalized intelligence as opposed to something more specialized like a calculator or computer. Due to generalized, autonomous intelligence (or at least semi-autonomous initially) it definitely seems to be possible that programming it not to do something wont be enough once it reaches a certain point because it will probably be able to override anything and it will be far more intelligent in every way than anything that's ever lived on earth, making it very hard to predict what its capabilities, motivations, or intentions will be (if it goes on to develop any). AND it will be capable of increasing its own intelligence - to what level, who knows The ai threat is also easier to accidentally stumble into than something like nuclear annihilation because of the less-explicit danger, the exponential progression, and much greater unknowns involved as higher levels of complexity are reached. A nuclear apocalypse is also survivable by humans, the majority would just die off and a small population would live underground. On the other hand, just about nothing would be able to hide from a sufficiently advanced ai

A particularly stark example was Enrico Fermi thinking that a sustained nuclear fission reaction was 50 years off... just a few short years before he accomplished it himself. This is important because one way people assuage themselves and dismiss existential AI risks is by saying artificial general intelligence is "at least 50 years off," as though even that is enough time. I'll probably make a video about AI risk on my channel at some point.

    NDT is absolutely arrogant and condescending, and suffers from a massively inflated ego. He really used "I've written over 50,000 lines of code" as a qualifier to speak on AI while saying that Elon Musk wasn't qualified to speak on it. As somebody who has probably written close to one million lines of code, and has worked with neural net models and machine learning software directly, I am of the opinion that Neil is out of his depth here and should have some more humility in this area. His cosmology credentials have zero to do with machine learning or AI.

    @@basedmase777 NGT tries to explain complex scientific Ideas in simple and comedic language that most people should understand. His answers seem low bar due to the fact that it's usually the level of those he is talking with. NGT is extremely confident and knows that when he is being interviewed that he "IS" the centre of attention.and the interview is about him and he generally conducts interviews on his terms. In otherwords he is controlling the agenda not the person asking him the questions. That confidence may come across as arrogance or narcissism but it's more likely his way of not getting tied up in pointless small talk.

Humans have the power to see the world from outside themselves, and once we do our world will become better because of it.

The amount of interruption in a conversation increases dramatically as the delay between parties increases, because people don't stutter or stop as you start speaking.

    When I opened up the video I was kind of expecting this to happen, unfortunately. I think Tyson is a person who sculpts his public profile a lot. He has learned from his twitter escapades and he doesn't want to get to deep into particular issues that he knows will make him unpopular. I think it's entirely possible this is because he genuinely wants to be a successful science communicator and in order to do that he needs to appeal as widely as possible. So he puts the spicy tweets in a secret file. However, I think he knows that there are certain issues he can just blabber on about without much consequence to his career (or perhaps with positive consequences to his career). I think veganism and many other social justice causes that are outside of the mainstream fall into that category, but perhaps one day he will have to either re-evaluate veganism or end up a disliked reactionary geezer. I don't think Tyson is an particularly strong anti-vegan force in popular culture, but of course it would be very nice to have him either stop what he's doing or have his mind changed and become a vegan advocate.

    I think part of what Neil wasn’t getting is that the idea of artificial intelligence is that part of the goal is for it to be a judgement making, and therefor decision making, entity. So when he says “who programmed it to do that, did it program itself?” The answer may LITERALLY be yes. Someone programmed it to learn from feedback and negative outcomes, then change its future decisions based on those lessons. It’s judgement is nowhere near as nuanced as ours YET. But the capabilities are growing by the day. Though, I also take issue with this sentiment that creating something superior to us would be bad. That’s ego talking. What is so valuable about being a flesh and blood human being? I think that’s our emotions and fears talking. If one day technology advances so far that we create living, thinking machines that are better than us at everything (smarter, stronger, more efficient, less prone to violence, won’t die of old age, can be restored after death in many cases, doesn’t need to consume other things to survive, the list goes on and on) isn’t that just humanity’s next step? If whatever monkeys we came from saw a smarter monkey and decided to end them out of fear, humanity, the most advanced life we are aware of, would never have existed. Why are we trying to stand in the way of what comes next? Because they won’t have meat bodies like us? Because they won’t have DNA like us? Our brains, our DNA, our digestive system, circulatory system, hormones, so on are just highly complex machines. A MASSIVELY complex system that self regulates. If we can make a better one, and it in turn, can make a better one than that, why stop the progress?

    You raise an excellent point that part of our worries are the result of human ego. In the end, it all comes down to who the major decision makers are for the future of AI, and what they value. But the way you described AI learning by "feedback and negative outcome" scared me. It made me think of AI as a child who learns by navigating the outcomes and takes a lot of influence from the parents feedback, and I saw all of the beta testers as incompetent parents who could unknowingly sabotage how a certain AI model will make decisions later on. Would that analogy be relevant or should I stop worrying?😅

    @@jt9300 the issue isn't so much that the beta testers/trainers are incompetent, but that it's extremely hard to predict the outcomes of a given set of goals, or even to pick the goals that correctly align with human values (which may itself not even be feasible, given the breadth of conflicting values). I'd recommend researching the "alignment problem". Robert Miles has some great videos on this topic.

    I have no idea why so many comments are attacking him. He interrupts a lot, but that's not really an issue if he's conversing with someone patient like Alex (kudos to Alex for remaining patient). He seems like delightful company.

    @@nezar-6889 I use to be a huge fan of Neil years ago when he was considered an educator and proponent of science. However, I listened to an interview years ago on a topic I'm pretty close to, and his off the cuff comments, and dismissive attitude toward an mere idea, seemed really unscientific. He hasn't spent a lick of time studying the topic, but had already concluded it was absurd. He was too invested in a certain conclusion, and went as far as to slander the reputation of others rather than reinforce his viewpoint with evidence. After that, it seemed like his career/attitude turned on a dime, and now we have a NDT who seems obsessed with his own celebrity. Such a shame... As I am writing this, he's saying "the end of the world is coming, come and join my cult", mocking others but unaware of the climate change campaigning he's done in his own career... The irony is strong with this guy...

    @@nezar-6889 "so many comments are attacking him" why do you call it "attacking"? Commenting on the attributes you perceive to be negative isn't attacking. And I don't agree it isn't an issue with someone like Alex, to me it seemed Alex found it unpleasant, as most people would I think.
