  • It affects my associations in that I don’t use some of the applications and platforms they, the larger society, use to interact with each other and also that I am reluctant to even contact people at all if they have spyware or LLMs in their phones, cars, computers, etc.

    As for if it will affect the way in which people already under heavy surveillance interact with each other, I expect psyops to be extremely effective currently but clearly not absolute as demonstrated by fascists and China losing the US election.

    What is a content algorithm if not surveilling and studying civilians to push chosen content in front of them and control how they act, what they buy, where they travel, etc.

    Well, yes, but the end result of her doing her very necessary job is undeniably an AI stock slump possibly crash. Rather I think we shouldn’t treat it as any sort of negative thing that they collapse in the first place. After all, these firms created negative value. No sympathy for investors in this specifically.








  • Sure, that is true right now. But in not-so-distant future

    Today it is a statistical model

    Tomorrow it is a statistical model

    Check out the OpenAI peer review article on “AI Scaling Laws”, although it had its math corrected by the staff of DeepMind later on it still more or less correctly predicted the performance of every model since and predicts that we’re hitting a hard limit soon as training approaches infinite but returns become smaller and smaller. If you plot the performance as per their charts then the limit after INFINITE training with INFINITE sample data and INFINITE power used then you get about 94% accuracy, which is still less than any one singular human’s capabilities. So why train it when you can just go and get a random human?

    Clearly this approach doesn’t work.

    You mentioned a theoretical model which adjusts its own weights? We call that self-sampling which leads to feedback loops and model collapse.


  • If somebody someday far far far into the future manages to invent AI which both approximates an exceeds human capability, which is honestly doubtful because somebody capable of doing so would likely abstain from it, then at that point the AI would likely view humanity as something useful for coexistence rather than some animalistic threat.

    Of course the absolute worst way to go about creating such a thing would be the physical and digital reconstruction of human and animal brains and experiences such that it would feel things like fear, self-preservation, and anger, but such attempts probably wouldn’t provide any real value to its creators or financers in the first place.
