The tech world is bracing for the release of Ph.D.-level artificial intelligence that will be able to do complex human tasks, Axios reported Sunday. The superagent breakthrough could happen in a matter of weeks and speculation is that it could be coming from OpenAI, according to the report. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is set to brief U.S. government officials on Jan. 30, Axios reported, adding that OpenAI staffers are “jazzed and spooked” by their progress. The report comes days after Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said that AI could replace mid-level software engineers as early as this year.

Impose an ‘AI tax’? Where AI is used and jobs replaced, tax it(?). Distribute the tax to the citizens. Make AI be productive and serve us(?) ...make the tax equal to an entry level job(?)
I’ve no idea....but if AI can be so productive then it should serve all of humanity. Everyone. If it is ‘building’ and ‘generating productivity’ then all of humankind should prosper from it.
PhD. In B. S.
TechnoFeudalism advances, with support of the billionaires (who need note be named). An Executive Order issued yesterday removes any guardrails and limits. It is a national security issue, IMO, but people can keep their heads in the sand if they want.
Humans will be superfluous and flushed by those with power. You aren’t need or desired.
Not really comfortable le with this! Firet off the dude fhst walked funny stated that they could “create mrna vaccines in a matter of 4 hours” with the new “smart ai”, and second, the small Japanese fella stated that this is just the beginning, that a “super ai” was on the way, which I think is code for what will likely become a “one world governmdnt/religion” “entity” which world leaders will “look to for guidance” on all manner of policy, touting g it as “bipartisan” and “objective”, but it will be anything but a deceitful g disguised l8beral policy maker, fully biased, but disguised enough to “look and sound unbiased and objective”
It certainly “appears” like Davos ilk trying to create a God in their own image- even the name, Stargate was used by Microsoft in 2024 for their new ambitious ai agenda.
Yes, in g he right hands it will be tremendously helpful, and yes, for docs all o ed thr nation, surgeons too. It will be tremendously helpful, tk have instant access to data for disgnksis and sueveries, however In the wrong g hands like power drunk megarich it can and will be used for evil! They are already talking about creating mrna vaccins with it on the fly. Not cool!
Oh, and they are now creating commercials that manipulate our dreams- was on g he news the other day. Davos ilk stated also that they want to control what people think- I think the next few years are going to see rapid movement toward that ,ind of Control, and ai development by power drunk fools hoping to control nations. ‘
Or becoming addicted to something it discovers and then pleasuring itself with it to the exclusion of all else...
The addiction, for it I think, is the idea that AI is always right. The AI will not have to consider other opinions in that paradigm.
If it’s kept human-centric, then it could be amazing.
It will just be used to remove humans from the process and not enhance their ability to work.
We are so screwed.
I’m not.
I have my lawnchair. I have my riverbank.
I have four days of the rest of my life to relax before I perish.
SKYNET meets The Nutty Professor. Just freakin’ great.
Great comments, especially first paragraph.
And don’t forget to worship it and wear your barcode on wrist or forehead if you want to eat.
We can only hope.
Will AI be able to watch what you are doing through your computer monitor?
Paranoia . . .
it won’t come to that right away probably, but in bits and dribbles- until people get really desperate to feed and keep their families warm in winter, cool in summer, and working (they won’t be allowed gas if they don’t eventually get the mark)
I suspect they are gonna couch it all in terms like “We are movign ahead at lightening speed for the betterment of the world with AI that can solve problems in a fraction of the time that it now takes.
They are already couching it in those terms- their mRNA comment was softened with “It will help eradicate diseases that are now plaguing the world”- The creeps from Davos are infamous for saying things like “This is for everyone’s benefit” and “We are workings on this for your folks”
Hey Davos- don’t do us any favors eh? We won’t survive it!
it won’t be kept huma centric- the duide that walked funny was kinda creepy in his discussion about the mRNA vaccines, and trying to sell it along the lines of being a huge beneficial boon for the world- not to mention the fact that bill gates and microsoft are heavily into this and gates has made some really really disturbing comments about controlling how people think
once people get as powerful as gates, and the three that were standing with Pres Trump at the announcement, money is no longer a draw, but power and visions of grandeur seem to overtake them- The freaks at Davos, Klaus and ilk, are typical of such vain imaginings and lust for power-
There is also talk about bioengineering using AI and ‘nano-robots’ inside the human body
Did you hear the announcement that Pres Trump gave and the responses by the 3 billionaires? They really did sound weird, powerdrunk almost- Yeah, they mentioned good things AI can accomplish, but also mentioned bad things that they want to do- and announced ‘super AI coming- which in my mind is an attempt to create a god in their own image- which i believe may be either the antichrist itself- OR something the antichrist and ilk will use to subdue the world eventually-
I love AI- Even though it’s not actual ‘intelligence’, it IS very very helpful- but it’s so dangerous in the wrong hands- I use it in photography, and have even used it to ask deep religious oriented questions which were scarily ‘sound’, yet still done by an unthinking bias driven algorithm
I asked the AI “Do you believe the things you just posted?” We went round after round, but it eventually said “No” that it just finds info on the net that it ‘thinks’ i am looking for- I’ll see if i can find it IF you are interested? It really was quite a ‘conversation’ and revealing- The things it was saying were spot on for solid religious advice, but it did throw in secular psychological reasoning too-
I find the idea of AI fascinating. I would love my own little hologram that you see on sci-fi shows that banter back and forth with their creator.
I could probably, if it has the level of intelligence that you see in these shows, converse with it forever. I might never come out of my room if I had that.
It’s entirely possible, after Christ which is when I will be able to trust this kind of technology inherently, that we will all have it but it will be humancentric and a help and no ulterior motive.
LOL- that would be the best outcome- ai too busy to ruin everyone’s lives lol
PhD level?
A quantum level of assholeness?
hopefully the AI doesn’t become paranoid
