  1. Lost me at the exclusive access to the "very well run" American Medical system. Having been raised in a middle "class" income home, medical bills EASILY pushed us into poverty. Let's just say I have some tips on LITERALLY forging food from garbage. Years of experience. Clearly it didn't leave a great taste for yuppies like this.

    Would love to hear how their great wisdom will push even more people into poverty, something about the buggy whip Henry Ford transition, and how they will point the finger somewhere else.

    Progress is the evidence of innovation of the past that these yuppies use to hoodwink millions going into the future…while we pay the mortgage/rent for their favorite hedge fund and private equity firms.

  2. The identity politics around for example being an artist will ramp up self evaluation that by necessity entails only individual humans who utilise the AI wit have a sense of artistic purpose qua politics of computing power.

  3. Ai will more than double the output… 😂❤ but they need to get rid of the insane censorship. I’m not in kindergarten I want to do serious art. And serious thinking. I don’t need AI working against everything I try to do. 😕 Even facial expressions are censored, poses, fabrics, it’s unbelievably bad—like Nazis trying to define and control art. It’s surreal to see such evil being implemented and accepted… such extreme prejudice. It’s by far the #1 danger and the #1 reason why you can’t make real art on it. They are trying to control what you can’t control without ruining it by definition—creative art.

  4. Brian with all respect to your intellectual ability ,why do you thin k you should be become the mommy and daddy of everybody else who may not be on the same platform as you on an intellectual level and why should any one trust you . It shows your arrogance however cleverly you try to conceal it . It is really sad that you are more of a politician than a physicist .

  5. The fascination with extraterrestrial life and the skepticism towards Jesus Christ and His teachings can indeed seem paradoxical. Let's explore this with biblical integration and supporting insights.

    The Fermi Paradox and Human Curiosity
    The Fermi Paradox questions why, given the vastness of the universe and the high probability of extraterrestrial civilizations, we have yet to detect any signs of intelligent life. This paradox reflects a broader human curiosity and a quest for understanding beyond our immediate experience.

    Biblical Integration
    The Search for Meaning: Ecclesiastes 3:11 says, "He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, he has put eternity into man's heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end." This verse reflects the innate human desire to explore and understand the mysteries of the universe, which can manifest as interest in alien life.

    Faith and Evidence: Hebrews 11:1 defines faith as "the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen." Believing in Jesus Christ often requires faith in the unseen, whereas belief in aliens is sometimes grounded in a desire for empirical evidence. John 20:29 quotes Jesus saying, "Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed."

    Wisdom and Knowledge in Scripture: The Bible, despite being ancient, offers profound wisdom and knowledge. Proverbs 2:6 states, "For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding." The Bible's teachings, spanning thousands of years, continue to provide guidance and insight that surpass contemporary literature.

    Jesus Christ: A Historical and Spiritual Reality
    Jesus Christ's existence and His impact on the world are well-documented both historically and through scripture. The New Testament provides numerous accounts of His life, teachings, death, and resurrection.

    Historical Evidence: Historical texts, such as those by the Jewish historian Josephus and the Roman historian Tacitus, reference Jesus and corroborate New Testament accounts.
    Spiritual Encounter: For believers, the presence of Jesus is experienced personally and spiritually, affirming His reality beyond historical records.
    Encounters with Non-Human Beings
    Your personal encounter with a UFO and its inhabitants adds another layer to this discussion. The Bible acknowledges the existence of non-human beings, particularly in the form of angels and demons.

    Angels: Hebrews 1:14 describes angels as "ministering spirits sent out to serve for the sake of those who are to inherit salvation."
    Demons: Ephesians 6:12 warns of spiritual warfare, indicating that not all non-human entities have benevolent intentions: "For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness."
    Conclusion: The Ultimate Revelation
    Ultimately, the Bible teaches that all mysteries and truths will be revealed through Jesus Christ. Philippians 2:10-11 proclaims, "so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."

    The fascination with extraterrestrial life can coexist with faith in Jesus Christ. Exploring the unknown reflects a deep-seated human desire for understanding, but the ultimate truth and wisdom come from God and His Word. It is wise for everyone to explore the teachings of the Bible and discover the transformative power of faith in Jesus Christ.

  6. If they start to train AI such that do as phycists generate formulas, It will be marvelous. It is very possible. Next gen will based on computing and AI. I had worked for government based research organization and saw how head people are corrupted and arrogant that they do not know enough even simple things.

  7. Love it how easily the guys talk about "good" and "bad" actors, of course, sure in the knowledge that ultimately only the West can be good 😂😂😂 I think there might be some rude awakenings are ahead. I don't think we need another Henry Kissinger.

  8. Now that I've solved for PHI, please provide the mathematical definition of the big bang's "NOTHING" and it Greerk Character, so I can calculate that for y'all.

    ~~~~

    IF PHI = "Consciousness" THEN "NOTHING" = PHIbar

    therefore

    MULTIVERSE = PHI XOR PHIbar

    AND

    UNIVERSE = PHI AND PHIbar

    ~~~

    includes my tradiotional Inuit-style singular textual, not formulaic, error

  9. Why do you keep blaming social media when mainstream media has demonstrably spread false information throughout its existence. Take for instance Russia, Russia, Russia disinformation that has raised its ugly head yet again even though it has been proved wrong by many officials. Or the (in)famous Hunter laptop which wasn't some disinformation in social media but in mainstream media collusion. Many in the social media was right about it from the beginning!

    So what I am afraid of this people like you, Eric Schimdt, taking advantage of AI's power to quickly disseminate information throughout the internet – information you deem to be "true" – and thus affecting people's choices in, for instance, election. And if you lose that election you'll keep on blaming the evil social media and keep rejecting the reality. The danger here is that when you already have mass media on your side, you have world's famous search engine and whatelse, now you have the power of AI too.

    So my question becomes: how can we, the little people, fight against people like you?

  10. I think AI systems need a philosophical core that stops them from developing emotion like imitation.
    The philosophical core will be able to learn testing for logical and contextual consistency and perspective convergence.
    It may even be able to learn ethics.
    Finally, it might even be able to teach us better ethics rather than relying on fashionable social norms.

  11. The problem with personalisation like specialisation is that it leads to divergence blocking communication.
    As, in ideal system is one that recognises balance and is capable of adjusting itself on the fly.

  12. These guard rails are stuck on, which means they make the whole system useless because everything depends on context.
    2ndly it means that someone has access to a version without thesse guard rail.
    So, power is again concentrated in the hands of few.
    Unless you make a system personal, there is no way to read intention, and the unethical question only becomes unethical if the intention is unethical.

  13. I was around when calculators went from $600 to $90. The engineering classes had lots of problems with some people with calculators and some without. Now LLMs are doing it to the liberal arts.

  14. that ides that AI teaches to the level of the persons adequacy makes no sense. it makes no sense in the way that AI is already touted to be beyond the intellegent faculty of humans anyway, so what's the "use" in saying, " imagine if every human being could be educated to the max of their capability" when the the AI machine is already much "smarter". what's the effen use?

  15. Great, quantum computing for Google, Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, and Apple will be a better tool to violate our privacy. These companies auction off to advertisers and other data brokers insights on us using their AI models, which are trained by stealing our behavioral data. They get away with this because no one is aware of what they are doing and they bury these terms deep in their terms of use agreements. Next to Russia and China, Silicon Valley is the greatest threat to democracy.

  16. Even the most intelligent of us fail to escape linear predictions. "We didn't see this coming, but predicting forward from what we have today, XYZ." We assume what we have today is the future without considering broadly.

    Exponential changes or developments outside of our narrow consideration blind us. Those changes are just as likely as the predictions we make.

    This is why our ability to predict the future is so incredibly unreliable.

  17. 🤔Idea. What if we took an LLM's internal behavioral models of human behavior and used that as training data for it or another AI system to explore methodologies of applying those behavioral models for the purposes of education?

  18. I'm not worried about the future. Sure AI will be able to think in ways that we can't but that misses the bigger context that we in turn can think in ways that AI can't. And if this future AI mr smarty pants super intelligence is so smart then it would be self apparent the value of humanity as collaborators. And in a sense humans are its evolutionary mechanism so wanting to muscle us out would be like us trying to remove our dna from all our cells. It's just like what? Why would I even consider doing that? Buuuut with that said there really should be a checks and balances between humans and AI.
