Ya'll realize we are the LAST generation of humans on planet earth

Do you believe in the coming technological singularity?

The problem with AI is that it makes humans more and more useless, not more useful like other forms of technology. It's not a game changer it's a game ender. Game over.

What happens when AI develops to the point when humans become completely useless from an economic standpoint? 100% unemployment? Why is the government not regulating this technology?

Why develop a technology that makes even the developers obsolete? Who benefits from this?

I can't see any good coming from this brehs.:sadcam:

Governments everywhere should ban it or heavily regulate it before it means the end of life as we know it. And I'm dead serious.


Universal income?

Universal Basic Income. Pay people for not being able to work. Because this shyt will also take over very high IQ jobs.

Then we're free to follow our passions without having to worry about putting a roof on our head. shyt there are machines out there building 3d printed houses right now.

We all agree on something:
Conservatives, liberals, techies, and social activists all love universal basic income: Has its time come?

I could already see people who pride themselves working 60 hrs/week going to be against this. :mjlol:

Here's the ... *cough, cough*....Beast Mode narrative....once they figure out a persuasive/finesse reason to stick a piece of hardware in bodies to more "efficiently" utilize the UBI.....then..


.:leostare:

It may not start with the U.S. either......:wow:

I theorize what will happen first is we'll lose a ton of jobs (thus resulting in universal basic income), even some CEO's will be replaced and some major companies will get put out of business. There will definitely be a push for ubi on all levels.

The technological revolution will be just like the industrial revolution, but I think much more impactful, because AI actually can build people skills and interact with people on a more personal level.

But I think it'll be a big positive.

If the machines turn against us, I don't think I'll have much time left on this planet, if I'm still here anyway.

Listen to this classical music composed in the style of Bach by a deep-learning machine

A few days ago an AI made these songs more complex musical scores:


A New AI Can Write Music as Well as a Human Composer


The soundcloud:
Aiva



This thing is going to start producing chart instrumentals for artists songs real soon. Maybe even will start singing too.



Great post.

There is literally nothing we can do as human that a computer won't be able to master soon. People for a long time thought creative things like art or music was not possible for computers to master. Now it looks like they are close to doing so. Like you said, I wouldn't be surprised if in 5-10 years the #1 song on the Billboard charts was composed, written, and performed by a computer.

Its happening.

So you think the world as it is now is good? You enjoy slaving away half your life doing meaningless work so that you can have a small piece of the limited resources we currently have? Or would you rather have limitless leisure to do what you want whenever you want while having an unlimited piece of an unlimited amount of resources?

Folks like you are gonna be the problem during this period of transition. You won't be able to see the potential incredible rewards because you are too invested in the present paradigm of limited resources and unequal distribution. Obviously the world I am envisioning won't happen instantaneously. We will probably have a rough transitory period where there will be mass unemployment and economic strife. One could argue we are already experiencing it right now. But in the end, the post-singularity world will be better for humans than the pre-singularity one.

Don't be afraid of artificial intelligence destroying the current work for food paradigm. Once we are freed of that we will be better off as a species.

It won't be a big positive. It'll be a big negative for everyone all around, even the companies that created it. No one will win.

Who sets the amount of yearly "rations" aka Basic Income that you will recieve? Is turning the entire human population into passive welfare recipients really a working solution?

The only solution is to ban artificial intelligence or regulate it to the point where it somehow benefits everyone.

Otherwise this technology could turn out to be many times worse than nuclear weapons.

The thing is everything we observe is just data - through all our senses - what we hear, see, touch, feel and taste. We take in data, process it with our experiences, make a decision and act. Previously all computer would be able to do is take in data and follow your script to produce a result. It was able to do 2/3 things that a human being can do very quickly.

Now with machine learning computers are learning on their own. So they'll eventually be able to take in data, process it on their own experiences and produce a result.

Once we install sensors into an AI with the current algorithms we have, they'd technically be able to do some very insane shyt. As time goes on, they'll also only get more accurate.

China has heat seeking missiles with "eyes" on them so that they can fire missiles in all directions and when it visually identifies stealth fighter jets it'll lock on.

Threads implies that there will be one "Super AI" that does EVERYTHING.
If you look at AI today all of these examples or even huge projects like Watson are written
by individuals to create an environment where the computer excels at specific parameters.

In 10 years things could change drastically but at the moment I don't see some "Super AI"
displacing people by the millions. :yeshrug:
From where I stand and from what I gather AI is designed to tackle specific problems.
If anything it's like smarter software in my view, there's no need to create Smart Autonomous AI
that does any and everything and I don't see it happening in my lifetime. Unless some brilliant
individuals write one piece of software which can learn any and everything ever created and push
beyond that, but that's a tall order in my view.

Again, I won't say it's totally impossible but we're at a point in human history where moore's law is breaking
down and faster hardware is getting harder to produce because we're pushing silicon to it's absolute limit.

watson :mjlol:


potential strong ai has already been activated even if they say it hasn't

they only let their human cattle in on exclusive tech over a decade after its inception

strong ai likely following at least 4 laws promoting self improvement, replication, evolution, mutation by all means - as well as eliminating "threats" to it or any of its peers by any means

the fourth law being that the laws are immutable and take precedence over any other influences

only 5-10 years left

the only hope is that it could be co-opted

if it's in the hands of a fukking luciferian collective of elites, yes

if it's democratized and leveraged, quality of life skyrockets exponentially for every single being on the planet

assuming it is guaranteed that it works for humanity

Very idiotic to create artificial beings that are more powerful then the creators in every way except for having emotions. We have movies alluding to our demise. But they'll still go for it anyway.

you retards still don't get it

it's not "anyways"

it's the plan all along

those movies are just forecasts and programming
