Most people still view these models through the lens of early predictive text. This is a significant misunderstanding of current architecture. They don't require a human to sit at the keyboard and guide the system step by step.

Join us in calling for our lawmakers to stop the development of superintelligence.

Wonderful question!

If you want to call and email your lawmakers, you can use the tools from ControlAI: https://controlai.org/take-action

If you want to spend 5-10 minutes per week on tasks that help: https://microcommit.io/

If you want to volunteer a few hours of your time each week, check out our page here: https://www.torchbearer.community/join-us

I prefer not to use AI

I would like to prevent AI from using us.

Definitely! So, do I!

Can AI Innovate On Its Own? Sure seems like it's close to doing just that.

Paul McElveen's avatar

Yes! It Can! It already has!

I don’t know why you didn’t program your robots with the Three Laws of Robotics:

1. A Robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the first law.

3. A robot must protect its own existence, as long as such protection does not conflict with the first or second law.

"Why can’t we just use Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics?" from the AI Safety Info wiki:

More generally, these AI systems are grown, not programmed. No one knows how to write computer code that can do what modern AI can do. These are less like computer programs than they are like digital brains. No one knows how to "program" a human brain with hard rules and limits, much less these strange new alien brains we have recently learned how to grow.

Truth (a/k/a reality) contains more danger than fiction.

I don't use AI either - but find it's often the first response to any searches these days which is maddening.

That is the God's truth!!!!

It appears that the human specie has found a way to delete itself!!!!

How smart are we actually? ...Inventions beyond our conscience!

Silly humans. It’s already too late.

ABOLISH AI Completely RIGHT NOW!!!!! I DON'T AND NEVER will trust AI!!!! I NEVER wanted AI!!!!

The real shift is not that AI can answer harder questions. It is that AI can now test ideas, learn from failure, change strategy, and keep going with far less human involvement.
