From a purely journalistic point of view, Peter is the best interviewer I’ve ever encountered. He’s also very sharp and informed, although he doesn’t let his knowledge get in the way of letting his guests speak.

Perer Robinson is a superlative interviewer. Many thanks for this conversation expertly curated.

They misunderstand Ray Kurzweils argument.

Every leap feels like a heap. Our task is not to make it cheap. Watching all the way from South Sudan. Thanks, Peter and your Guests.

Regardless of what you think of Elon Musk, he is right that we need to get our collective minds around this "tool" we call AI. Pandora's box is open. Nefarious activity is already leveraging AI, similar to the advent of the internet but much larger in impact.

I'm so sorry... AI and its Impact on Society Oct 31, 2023, updated on April 11, 2024 We must ask ourselves, "What will happen when AI has taken 85% of jobs present in 2020? What will we do? How will we eat and survive without incomes from jobs or other means?" What is disturbing is that while AI is taking these jobs, the gov't and the corporations have not done ANYTHING to prepare us for an AI'ed civilization. They have not said anything about major retraining of an entire economy to something else, and they have not followed up on a discussion of universal basic income. This is supposedly supported by a lack of information in the latest government budgets submitted and approved as reported by some KZread videos. It appears that the US gov't and the corporations intend to kill off the majority of Americans passively, through starvation from lack of income to buy food. (check and see if farming production is declining or will start to decline ahead of the "starvation phase") (also check to see if the "makeup" of robot equipment allocation would change to reflect a trend away from retail and services for the masses, possibly indicating an extinction of the American public - this means taking a robot from Chipotle and repurposing it for some other job not related to the public, or scrapping affected robots to be remade for some other purpose that has nothing to do with the public) It appears that the decline of farming has already started with the state of Maine buying farm land under the pretext that there are "forever chemicals" present at around 20 parts per TRILLION (safe level is said to be only 4 parts per TRILLION), which does not make sense, BUT this would rope in a LOT of land across the US. Other states may follow suit in addition to the ten states that have similar laws in place. This way, there are only enough people alive to get some things done, and the rest is done by AI, and the survivors who planned this can claim the whole country for themselves. Imagine having an estate mansion half the size of a mall on several dozen thousand acres of land, and robots would be used to maintain and clean the estates and do the farming FOR THE ESTATE OWNERS. The White Man's wet dream of civilization. What will the Native Americans south of the US border do when they see this coming, especially when they can buy firearms legally now? Hopi prophecy...

@23:00 I think this really shows one of the big issues with very smart people. They don't think about the experience of dumb people. Each time we develop a new technology that "changes work" the new jobs are always ones that require more intelligent, creative, and/or competent humans. In other words, the jobs that get replaced are the lower skill, or lower prestige, jobs. We are starting to have AI powered general-purpose robots. "General-purpose". Depending on who you ask, we already have between 5% and 15% of the population that unsuited to any type of productive work for various reasons. What happens to our society when that becomes 50%? I suggest CGP Grey's video "Human's need not apply".

This is refreshing, anything but more on the Middle East or the Central Banking / markets / Economy complex!

A philosopher should know better than use a term in its definition.

I went to high school in Minnesota with a gentleman who does high-level AI work for Microsoft. He is an extremely capable person but I doubt that even he can ensure that AI can be contained within the "intentions of the programmer/creator". No one can give that guarantee with any true certainty.

Extremely illuminating

22:45 yes! Obesity, anxiety, social media addiction, processed food etc

‘We have to do another show on that one I think’ Peter!

25:00… I think this is a key point often glossed over in the debate on the emerging cognitive power of AI. The debate has already polarised: If you suggest that AI will not have a HUMAN cognitive quality, you are labelled as speciest, if you suggest that the human condition is unique, you are labelled a dualist. But let us stand back from this for a moment: Why would it be plausible to expect machine intelligence to be exactly like human intelligence? Machine intelligence will be DIFFERENT, it is likely to develop a richness that has human-ANALOGUES, there will be machine-analogues to emotion, creativity, experience, taste etc. It seems to me that those who allege the machines will be able to do everything a human can do cognitively are limiting the machines to cognitive processes that humans can do. But why would the human condition be a valid benchmark in the first place. It seems to me that we are creating the first non-human intelligence. Let us not limit it by putting human constraints on it. If we are able to solve the problems of control and alignment, the chances are that we will be able, for the first time in human history, to communicate constructively with a non-human intelligence, an intelligence that will complement us in some ways, compete with us in others, and yes, presumably threaten us in yet other ways.

Don't have confidence in human nature. Every power will use it to their own benefit, no matter what is moral. The only safety is in competitive checks on power.

John is in for a big surprise regarding the superintelligence question.

You've got serious acting chops!

39:25 John's answer (not being pshycologist or behaviour expert) sounds kind of short as for explaining the Ray's expressions of *Singularity* I think Ray's perspective is *right on path of very possibility* of decoding humans as beings. Yes, all possible dimensions of humans as beings can be sorted out & then interlinked with tremendous possibilities of combinations. Cognitive & rational or whichever- whatever. (Though costly) He fears of very possibility of birth of this framework of huge logical design & that's why he is on the *philisophical path* but yet wish to be rational. 😅 But primarily it's philosophical. So will always lag behind on factual speeds of random happenings. The voice of 'Let the humanity exploe its own limits' will always reman & has remained loud & powerful. No one knows where & how it will end up on large scales. (Lot many will surely survive out of this chaos too) It's also true that systems of regulations on this will keep on evolving parallely. Well, Course he teach is having tremendous value though, because, it teaches, rather provides scope for learnes to generate & develop the self awareness & self regulations in their journey on the path of AI. (Those will act as defenders in all odds of AI in future) That's great. 👍 In this sense, Peter, role of academic institutions is important & *they are still relevant* 😊 Nice & insightful discussion. Thank you all. 🙏🌹

Love your work Peter. However This conversation , the guests to me precise looked more philosophical than having nuanced takes or clarifications.

Bonjour

The guests both appear to be humble, cautious, intelligent and openly share their insights and wisdom..they appear to me to be humane people. The interviewer on the other hand appears to be taking a provocative and very ignorant perspective, perhaps just to drive his line of questions. I'm willig to grant him the credit to be simply representing a patron class out there, some of who may have great means, but who remain in great ignorance - perhaps through defending their perspective in a changing world. The only way forward I've learnt, is by developing personal insight and compassion for all humanity. This is necessarily not an easy nor comfortable process. These tools are available to all no matter what world you live in or your means. If used to help others and improve understanding they can be a key to freedom from resistence or fear of the 'other'. 'Dominant' regious philosophies have been behind most wars of mankind; that and greed ... clearly if we ever want to solve for ourselves we need to head toward that which brings us together.

Pattern recognition? Of course. If we could see in IR and/ or UV, we'd see different patterns, too. Anyone ever been to a chalk talk where the presenter draws on the chalkboard in chalk and then turns on the "invisible" light to reveal images that were there on the chalkboard but not visible to human eyes without the "invisible" light? Also, how different creatures see the world would be quite different. Dogs see differently from squid. If we can't even or perceive a pattern, we would probably not think of making advantageous moves in that pattern's, or set of patterns, framework.

I've been thinking about alignment some recently, and I can't help but frame the question of meaning, so, to oversimplify. the idea that there is a collective vector of all our alignments interacting, any divergence from this idealized imaginary vector is inefficient, the money serves it, the self serves it, even contrarian forces serve in defining it.. so, nothing new.. maybe a difference perspective

Or A.I. that can write code and hack and design RAD hardened chips or such. Censorship is something you see all over. The bigger questions are who chooses? Who's ethics or morals is being dictated through the A.I.?

In a way commendable that they didn’t use the words GPT or Generative, which is all the fuzz now. They did mention Alpha Go but no props to OpenAI. Weird.

Such a bizarre flavour to the comments section here compared with most Uncommon Knowledge episodes. Either bots are attacking or the 2 guests have attracted a new set of viewers who are unfamiliar with Peter and his style.

Whether GAI can become conscious is a question that cannot be answered unless we know what conciseness is. We do not. As such, the question is premature.

Instead of saying Why do we need sitcom/ movie writers, the better question will be Why do we need Hollywood? We can get the final product.. video and all with Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt whoever we wanted.. on our laptop!

no machine could do what you do, peter

The unexpected move by the AlphaGo reveals that AI is fundamentally different: The anomalies it will cause may be by design due to machine learning. This, other than its intelligence, might be the true human part of AI. If looked at from an evolution perspective, mutation of AI is the key issue mostly missing in current discussions. For machines, automatic was yesterday, but autonomous is tomorrow. If autonomous machines inherently and unmistakenly act unexpectedly, who's liable to the consequences? Can machines commit crimes in a human way? Or we should blame the creators and owners of the machines on these autonomous yet criminal acts? The legal system of human society is not ready yet, and may stay unready as AI may advance faster. To think ethics as a cure of the problem might be too optimistic.

you are approaching this topic from a tainted government perspective. Elon is right, the AI is more dangerous than nuclear weapons because it can hack the computers that control the weapons. The reason the government needs to be involved is because there are topics in AI that need to be completely inaccessible to AI, such as programming viruses and hacking things. Facebook just released Llamma 3. Who checked lamma 3 to see if it allows you to ask for directions to build an atomic bomb? Who checked to see if it lets you create chlorine gas? The safety of AI's needs to be guardrailed by the government because they are a risk to humanity in a way that no other systems can present. The reason they want a researchers, and not Ted Cruz to create the rules for AI is because researchers will literally just spend their entire day asking the AI for directions to destroy things, create gasses, and all kinds of hazardous things all day, and with more creative ways than Ted Cruz can do. This is the one time. That for your own good. You really need to make sure the AI is safe.... because AI will be more powerful than the USA government eventually. Now when AI reaches that point, do you want the AI that everyone has access to, it took everyonoes jobs, it cured cancer because cancer is a DNA disease, do you want that AI to accidentally explain how to make chlorine gas if you tell it your mother is sick, and the only thing that will make her better is the recipe for chlorine gas? THe way you asked the question indicates that you don't understand the role AI will take in the future.

Because of Turing. Plain and simple. Turing compared computers to humans and based its future on becoming so much like a human we cannot tell it apart and thus, it is human.

It's called artificial because it does not arise in nature without human interference. It is crafted by humans. Also it need not be digital. Digital means based on discretized information. The word comes from the digits i.e. fingers of your hand. AI can be done using analog and continuous computation, in fact people have built these kind of computers in the past and there are people working on analog hardware for use in AI.

Lifespan is reliant on genetics, not work. Farmers can die at a young age and people behind desks can live into their 90s and live well.

Exerts in AI pretend that the are experts in social engineering and economics. This is not the end of horse power for the internal combustion engine. AI will ultimately take all jobs. It is amusing that it didn't come for truck drivers (advised to take jobs in haute couture or learn to code) first, it came for white collar.

Peter talks too much and does not allow interviewees to answer the question.

For AI to NOT be an interdisciplinary pursuit would be gatekeeping a discussion that should involve everybody; Ultimately it's not a lot different than humanities. We have a huge capacity to screw this up.

IIRC Elon has said as a youngster he inhaled all the science fiction he good find where he must have been intrigued by asimov's three laws. And likely believes that if an AI can learn GO by observation it can do the same with the three laws. Aristotle's ethics. So we need not fear an AI that knows it must not injure a human by direction or inaction. It must obey orders from a human save where these orders would conflict with the First Law.A robot 3:21 must protect its own existence as long as this does not conflict with the First or Second Law. Which another AI will be able to test in a Sim. Using zero knowledge proofs. And only after passing a series of tests and challenges by other AIs may the AI be released into the wild. And as protein needs a reason to live Give meaning to their lives rather than a UBI what's needed is a universal basic job. Fiction becomes Fact. Arthur C Clarke.

Historically, the West has utilized new technologies for military or imperialistic purposes before finding broader applications. The West primarily used gunpowder to create weapons of war, such as cannons and firearms, allowing Western powers to expand their military capabilities and dominate other regions through conquest and colonization of the Americas, Africa, and Asia. The steam engine was instrumental in expanding colonial empires, as steam-powered ships facilitated easier transportation of goods and troops, enabling Western powers to exploit resources and establish control over distant territories. The first use of nuclear technology was dropping atomic bombs on the civilians in the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. The same pattern will emerge with AI. The CHIPS Act, high-end chips, and EUV sanctions imply that the US is already working on the weaponization of AI. Following its historical pattern, China will mainly use AI for commercial and peaceful purposes. Papermaking revolutionized communication, education, and record-keeping, spreading knowledge and culture. Gunpowder was used for fireworks. The compass was adapted for navigational purposes, allowing for more accurate sea travel and exploration. Printing facilitated the dissemination of information, literature, and art, contributing to cultural exchange and education. Porcelain was highly prized domestically and internationally as a luxury item and a symbol of Chinese craftsmanship. Silk was one of the most valuable commodities traded along the Silk Road and played a significant role in China's economy and diplomacy. The West is dominated by a scarcity mindset, characterized by fear of losing something, anxiety about not having enough, insecurity about lacking security, and greed for more. This mindset always strives for a win-lose outcome, where one's gain is someone else's loss. As Obama's Pivot to Asia suggests, "If over a billion Chinese citizens have the same living patterns as Australians and Americans do right now, then all of us are in for a very miserable time. The planet just can't sustain it." This scarcity mindset often leads to war, military action, colonization, slavery, and exploitation. Constantly making military alliances and creating enemies. However, these divisions can be mitigated by adopting an abundance mindset, characterized by cooperation, resource-sharing, and win-win outcomes. Avoiding war by using tools such as trade, commerce, diplomacy, and connectivity is possible. It is the difference between mindsets. Each thinks that it is acting rationally and is on the right path. Humans will not be able to control an ASI. Trying to control an ASI is like trying to control another human being who is more capable than you. They will be able to find ways to circumvent any attempts at control. Let's hope that the ASI adopts an abundance mindset of cooperation, resource-sharing, and win-win outcomes, instead of the scarcity mindset of competition, fear, and win-lose outcomes. If we treat ASIs with respect and cooperation, they may be more likely to reciprocate. However, if we try to control or exploit them, they may become resentful and hostile.

What a bunch of biased nonsense. Cannons were invented in China and were in full use by the Yuan dynasty (who also invented GUNS) in the 13th century and brought west by the Turks who used them to conquer the rest of Islam that was also using colonization to spread its religion. As for GUNPOWDER, China was using it as a WEAPON by the SAME PEOPLE who are credited with the FIRST RECIPE in the Song Dynasty less than 100 years before the Cannon and gun was invented. Take your CCP propaganda and shove it. No one outside of China is going to believe your nonsense unless they are uneducated and too lazy to find out how wrong you are. P.S. The Chinese dynasties murdered in MASS to keep how silk made a secret, because of how rich it was making the corrupt emperor's and they did that for over 1000 years. The who were killed is near uncountable. and it has been accepted as OK by the Chinese people because of several thousand years of being kept under the boot of the government is ingrained into the hearts of its people. The differences between China and the rest of the world can be easily mitigated by freeing the people of China, from the chains of the government that keep them bound in captivity. This is why Chinese people living outside of China, would never return. Once you taste freedom, you will never willingly go back.
