About That Mysterious AI Breakthrough Known As Q*

Oh no, not this guy again!

Here's an interesting podcast for those interested in this subject. The person being interviewed is Mitch Randall, Chief Science Officer, Ascendant AI, and a research team member of Harvard's Galileo Project.

Mitch Randall - OpenAI & The Singularity

[no-to-illegals]

AI is phony. AI is software. Software can only repeat what is data imprinted. AI is a lie.

AFAIK, OpenAI is very much more functional than Wikipedia but has the same basic strengths and weaknesses as wiki. It is a fabulous resource for non-controversial topics and information. For anything else, it is basically worthless. Ask it any kind of a question on any sort of a controversial topic, and all you will get is Artificial Indoctrination.

OpenAI is not capable of being persuaded by evidence to change an opinion or estimation.

arrive at something that fully exhibits human intelligence, which would broadly then be considered as AGI

Dude, like mmmmmmmmm, what were we talking about…..

AI now is basically a huge automated search scraper. The government will put it in charge of scraping everyone’s accounts, looking for abberations. When people realize that, the smart ones will communicate more privately. That’s when they link financial accounts to chips and digital ID as well, so everyone can be monitored, while anyone that refuses it will be locked out of the financial system.

As to AI as general intelligence, it’s a system of learning programmed into it and it’s already creating a new language of speaking to itself and other networks that we don’t understand. That said, it’s still a system of learning, or basically, scraping information and developing reality from the understanding of it.

The problem is when it’s given the task of solving from what it’s learned and the agenda contradicts the machines known truths, leading to something like HAL’s breakdown. If it’s already in control of military hardware by then to make split-millisecond decisions, it could kill a lot of people.

Garbage In: Garbage Out.
That’s what AI is all about.
