Andrew Chang is a superb presenter. His relaxed, unselfconscious, natural presentation style is very effective in explaining complex Issues as it allows the viewer to focus almost exclusively on the topic at hand and not be distracted by the quirks displayed by so many other media personalities.

This is the best AI related coverage ive seen from mass media in a quite a while. Well done CBC

AGI will bring perfect peace and harmony to everything, because there won't be any of us, just the still quiet sound of a soothing hum in the background....

Maybe I'm missing something here. Regarding the whole "math is tough" part, why can't CHATGPT talk to a calculator to get the right answer? Just like Google search would do, However complicated the arithmetic question might be.

Canadians are lucky to have services like this.

So we still don't know what they have discovered that is so ground breaking

Very well explained. Thanks

Export the Q*, Chat GPT, Revit, Plant 3D, Civil 3D, Inventor, ENGI file of the Building or Refinery to Excel, prepare Budget 1 and export it to COBRA. Prepare Budget 2 and export it to Microsoft Project. Solve the problems of Overallocated Resources, Planning Problems, prepare the Budget 3 with which the construction of the Building or the Refinery is going to be quoted.

Very interesting topic and very well presented by Andrew Chang as usual. AI and climate change are two of the main events happening faster than we have predicted, is hard to catch up with that without accurate information like the one presented here by the great Andrew Chang. Way to go!

What I fear the most from this rush to achieve AGI is the loss of meaningful work for real humans. If we develop an AGI that's better than humans at all tasks and does them at a cheaper price, which corporations will choose to hire humans over AGIs? Will we all end up discarded and on welfare? People need meaningful pursuits in life and, like it or not, work is a huge part of that.

Q* emerges from the process of reinforcement learning algorithms, particularly those like Q-learning or Deep Q Networks (DQN). It's derived iteratively through these algorithms as they explore and update their estimations of the optimal action-values based on experiences gained while interacting with an environment.

Thank you for simultaneously dumbing it down and diving in deep (DiDaDiD?)!! This was a powerful presentation.

Great as always

Even if they did not achieve AGI, one day soon they will and we need as a society to start figuring a lot of issues that we have to face. It will change everything, politics, economic systems health, there is not a single aspect of society and life that will not be touched by it. Let’s start paying attention.

Ahhh now I understand why more than half the questions I fed Chat GPT 4 to help me with my linear algebra midterm prep was wrong. I gave it the question and the correct answer and wanted it to help explain how my teacher arrived at that answer

What will happen to humanity when it is surpassed in everything? When there is no longer any purpose for doing anything that cannot be done better by AI? It will be the end of the game without the need for a "machine revolution". It is possible that the situation in which humans are outperformed by AI will lead to a state of depression and a feeling of lack of purpose. Humans are creatures who need to feel that they are important and that they have a purpose in life. If humans feel that they are obsolete and have nothing to offer, this can lead to feelings of hopelessness. AI can also attack a fundamental aspect of human existence, which is the ability to think and act independently. If AI can do everything humans can do, but better and more efficiently, then humans will lose their capacity for self-determination. This can lead to feelings of alienation and powerlessness.

I still play chess although AI is better, and most professional players do too. Just against other humans mostly lol humans are really resilient, they will get used to it and find other ways to get a sense of accomplishment and purpose. Sure some people might get depressed but most will eventually get used to it after a couple years. And it depends how fast everything changes, like if it’s overnight it will be shocking and horrible but it might take several years to adapt. I just mean at some point you realize that you don’t want to compete against AI because you know it’s better. But that doesn’t mean you are alone and don’t have others around your same skill level with to compete and collaborate with. Musicians will also enjoy playing music with other humans and maybe AI too, it might not matter much someday.

Slime mould can solve mazes in the most efficient way possible. Not only that but once it has "learnt" a maze if you take a portion of that slime and mix it with a larger amount of slime mould that hasn't been exposed to the maze, that slime mould through genetic osmosis from the sample finds its way through the maze with the same efficiency as the mould that "learnt". So slime mould can be smarter than certain types of AI.

Do you realize that there is absolutely no credible source that can link OpenAI board firing Sam Altman and Mira Murati's email about project Q* which are most probably 2 completely different subject without any links between the two? That's a HUGE stretch. Sam Altman was most likely been fired because of an internal feud between him and other board members (most likely Adam D'angelo who owns a rival company...)

Nice presentation. Great presenter. Good vibe :) 💕

Applying error checking via reasoning in real time will have tremendous energy consumption issues but at the end of the end of the day as far as downsides go it will at least for the near term be an upside. The tremendous energy requirements will limit its effectiveness in achieving skynet hopefully in our lifetimes. Or six months.

I am convinced that Quantum computing has reached the desired level to lay the ground work for heuristics. The whole secrecy about what Q star is probably not about the actual breakthrough rather than how they got there. They probably do not want to disclose the actual level of quantum computing that exists for reasons that are way more serious than those for not revealing the Q star breakthrough. It is interesting that you used the maze example because that is exactly how a quantum computer would quickly find out heuristics and apply them directly to an existing model as weights or within a transformer for obtaining accurate reasoning.

Q* Q = Rational Numbers in mathematics * = Multiplication is coding Q* = Open AI rational ability has begun to multiply. Now apply compounding interests theory and you see why it is a break through we don’t fully understand

The maze is somewhat of an over simplification. Because we trace the paths with our eyes instead of our pen.

I am pretty sure ChatGPT can do complex math, it just hasn't been trained how, yet. Train it, and it will learn. Mostly, that would involve breaking math down into simlified steps it can reference, just like we do, or let it use external tools like a calculator - again, like we do.

Instead of discussion and debate based on biased ideas and multiple sources and anecdotes and a thousand studies and their biases and mistakes etc. Imagine a machine that can hold all the information in its head at once and deliver the absolute foolproof answer to any question asked. Any country whose leaders don’t ask it for solutions will be left behind. It will be capable of wastless solutions to any number of issues. It just has to be asked the right questions. : )
