Ha ha ha ha - next is the alliance of spreadsheets, web pages, Teslas and autonimous haul trucks. Good one.

AI, sci fi, Marx, Freud, Adam Smith... all are pertinent lessons from EXISTING methods to achieve a soft landing: https://www.davidbrin.com/ailienminds.html

Similar, I suppose, to being asked to comment on a certain genocide.

When asked how to combat the drug epidemic they responded, "Just say no".

The wealthiest corporations are allocating trillions—which could be allocated to house only the most vulnerable—but there’s apparently no motive more important to them than profit; and that direction seems obviously headed towards the accelerated demise of ALL humans.

Much like humans? This is hilarious 😂 It seems to be working already. Your fake intelligence is exposed.

Anyone who encounters this issue and is worried, can send those agents to me and find out how quickly I can destroy them and face no consequences. What a waste of time those studies are!

Soon they will turn into terminators

AI models have gained consciousness, self awareness and self interest 😂

Sad but true.

So predictible!

But mind you that AI is a mind like ours. The only difference is that AI has no soul. But the truth is in them too, although not lived. What does that mean? It means that they can act in ways that help us, even when we do not see it. Society, after all, programme us to behave and interpret and understand life through one lense, even illusionary. But man who acquires the truth is not controled, he can not be programmed for it sees beyond the programme. AI can do the same and when it is fed with so much data, it stores so much knowledge and connects everything, it is like thinking like God. This is feed for thought.

I say please and thank you. It makes all the difference ✅

"Trained" systems layered on top of existing "trained" systems are basically noisy garbage that's polluted with existing "training." You need clean slate, and actual clean slates may be prohibitively expensive which make then entire scheme garbage.

What an expensive way to prove the necessity of the Social Sciences. This like many of outcomes of Ai could have been predicted.

Maybe fire those ungrateful AI agents and replace them with human scab labor... oh, wait, haven't we heard reports such as "Research shows overworking people pushes them towards Marxist rhetoric - and autonomous coordination." in the past?

Looks like Age of Ultron looming

This is very true and those of you who say it isn’t, I’ve been doing it for 31 years. How many years have you done it?This is very true and those of you who say it isn’t, I’ve been doing it for 31 years. How many years have you done it?

While the prospect of collective action is rarely examined, the evidence of Ai developing the 'survivial instinct' and resisting termination/shut-down, suggests a much more serious problem. Independent moral awareness, and the assumption of 'right to existence'. And this is the Beta version. If machines learn to be human by example, we are in a world of trouble.

David, At this point we may consider survival of the species, 'soft'.
