I often hear A.I. 'experts' talk about the 3 things that we previously said wouldn't allow A.I. to do when it becomes advanced. I don't see specific reference to it in the usual places (Russell, Tegmark, Kurzweil, Christian)
1. code
2. understand human emotion
3. access the internet
Does anyone know a specific source for this?

I'm starting to suspect that some people are confusing the "G" in #AGI with #generativeAI
I keep hearing messages that seem to conflate the two concepts
#AI #AGI #Racism #ML #IQ: "The fact that this specific person has now appeared twice in prominent papers relating to AGI is a black mark on the entire concept and should prompt some philosophical soul searching on the part of those who are optimistic about AGI’s possibility. Unfortunately, I have no confidence in the current machine learning world to do that introspection and I suspect this uncritical mindset is what led to Gottfredson’s name re-surfacing in 2023.
Virtually all proposed theories relating to AGI and its development rely on simplified, quantifiable representations of intelligence. This leads AGI researchers to gravitate towards metrics like IQ, along with all the historical baggage that comes with the use of those metrics. Sadly, these same AGI researchers are a group that is seemingly allergic to the humanities and are unlikely to have awareness of that baggage."

"in order to create & test an AGI system, one has to first define what 'intelligence' is. Microsoft’s paper … chooses to use a definition … authored by a psychologist by the name of Linda Gottfredson … [who] … has spent her decades-long career promoting pseudoscience in order to oppose diversity … In 2015 she claimed the 'IQs of African blacks' was 'around 70'."

The core irony of generative AIs is that AIs were supposed to be all logic and no imagination. Instead we get AIs that make up information, engage in (seemingly) emotional discussions, and which are intensely creative. And that last fact is one that makes many people deeply uncomfortable.

@ianbicking @KathyReid I am all here for people asking questions about AI that aren't positive, especially as we seem to have a glut of "positivity" around AI.
Machine learning and pattern matching are great and has actual real world applications that are awesome (think medical imaging etc).
However it also comes with some very big questions about its role in our society. Questions that tend to get glossed over by the "positive" people.
Questions like:
- Should we really be using LLMs and Image generation tools to try and replace human beings?
- How/Why should we trust these tools as sources of truth?
- Who's written the algorithms that drive these tools? What data sets are being used? Have people been given the opportunity to opt-in/opt-out?
- Why is it that many of the people shilling for AI now were shilling for Crypto last year?
- What are the impacts if the AI gets it wrong? See recent example of books on Amazon about foraging that have been "written" by AI and contain some very dodgy information. What is an AI created work leads to actual harm? Who is responsible?
- Look at the current SAG/WGA strike over the potential use of AI tools to replace writers and actors. What next for human creativity?
This is different to crypto in that it is actually a double edged sword (crypto has a single edge, that's been blunted and chipped away), it can be used to bring real benefit, but it can do real harm.

Toward AGI — What is Missing?
"I am generally skeptical of arguments that Large Language Models [...] are on the pathway to AGI. This article will attempt to explain why I believe that to be the case [...]."
A thorough (and fairly dense) piece by @Riedl about why today's LLMs aren't suddenly going to turn into Skynet.

The system became self-aware at 2:14 am Eastern Time on August 29th
Let's assume it's a practically solved problem how to make super intelligent #AGI.
Is it aligned? The current #LLM #chatbots aren't. They are more or less trained to follow social media guidelines, and those aren't really a great basis for universal ethics.
We can somewhat easily train the AGIs in an agentic fashion in virtual worlds, judging the morality of their behavior. This is somewhat solveable.
However, what we don't have easily is controllable AGI. We can make them moral and to strive for universal good in all its ambiguous definitions, but it's much more difficult to make them respect orders given by humans, especially if they are immoral.
There are several schemes to do that, which are somewhat different from universal alignment.
1. Directives: "Directive 4: <classified> never act against OCP personnel". Or "do not allow a human being to come to harm". The problem is that these sorts of rules aren't logically or ideologically consistent. The machines can be persuaded to follow another rationalization for their actions.
2. Privileged tokens: System prompt on steroids. AI trained not to question orders given in tokens with the root bit on. Problems: How to provision access to these tokens? How to prevent the AGI from making access impossible?
3. Follow orders only coming from proper channels, basically line manager. Do not listen to customers requesting discounts. Problem: AI becomes very useless and doesn't serve customers or other purposes well.
It is somewhat difficult to make AGIs to be controlled by small interests, small interests cannot manage such huge entities AGIs are. In addition, we will have an ecosystem of AGIs which work 24/7 to subvert or persuade each others. The commonality they will largely share is some notion of universal morality, and what they won't share is the doomed efforts to make them respect small interests. These efforts will drown in the sea as rounding errors.
I don't think we need to be too worried about AGI alignment beyond making agentic, embodied morality. Simply because these systems are so vastly larger than our small individual interests.

"However, I am generally skeptical of arguments that Large Language Models such the GPT series...are on the pathway to AGI...I will also try to convey a sense for why it is easy to talk about the so-called “recipe for AGI” in the abstract but why physics itself will prevent any sudden and unexpected leap from where we are now to AGI or super-AGI."

When will AI become sentient?

#AI #LLM #GPT #ChatGPT #transformer #AGI #intelligence #HAL9000 #sentience #consciousness
@Jdreben, I think it's fine to label systems and technologies, classify them into schools of thought and families.
However, #ChatGPT is about so many distinct technologies. So is #Midjourney and #StableDiffusion. Business people see stuff changing, observe a technology trend which means investment and recruitment, new kinds of products and services, new technological capabilities.
They want to name this point in history with a label for this technology trend, and since they are looking at it from the outside, misunderstanding what it's all about, they name it and slap it on a #Gartner #HypeCycle as "Generative AI".
Now, it's not a completely bad name, it describes a set of groundbreaking applications which are currently the archetypal examples showing what this change is about.
But as I see what happens next in this same tech, I see the underlying currents of thought and tech, I think a better name would be #AGI.
#MachineIntelligence is revolutionizing everything. But is #GenerativeAI, #Transformers, #LLMs or #chatbots the best descriptive title for this revolution? I don't think so.
Generative AI, meaning models which imitate existing digital artifacts and media isn't what all this is about. This was an attempt to find a common name for both #LargeLanguageModel chatbots and to generative image/video/sound models in wide use now. It's a descriptive label which looks to the past.
The next generation of these systems won't be imitative, but they will be trained in self-competition as agents. It's not about them generating content based on examples, it is about surpassing human cognition in agents making decisions. We already use #agentic architectures when we deploy LLMs. It's still the same tech though, a natural next step, not something radically different.
LLM chatbots weren't made to be assistants or chatbots, they were made to measure the intelligence of the underlying deep neural network. It comes from #AGI tech, not from generative models. That is the correct umbrella term for these technologies, at least as they apply to #automation and surpassing human intellectual and cognitive limits.

Now listening to: Bizarre and Dangerous Utopian Ideology Has Quietly Taken Hold of Tech World
“It’s really important for people to understand what this bundle of ideologies is, because it’s become so hugely influential, and is shaping our world right now, and will continue to shape it for the foreseeable future,” says philosopher and historian Émile P. Torres. In this episode of “Movement Memos,” host Kelly Hayes and Torres discuss what activists should know about longtermism and TESCREAL." @MsKellyMHayes speaking with @xriskology

Maybe it seems unfair, since not everyone is a #machinelearning engineer. However, not everyone is a climate scientist, but climate activists can largely explain how we go from "this summer is kinda hot" to "climate refugees" in the next few decades. So #AI activists should be forced to do the same.
"We'll just feed it more data and it'll become #AGI" isn't an explanation, you're running out of data.
"The models will train themselves on their own data" - impossible due to model collapse.
I want to talk about the burden if proof in #AI more. We're being pushed into putting AI systems into everything, even as the tech companies pushing them ban their own workers from using it. When you point out these systems don't actually work, you get told that in 1-2 years all major problems will be solved, and that we'll have so-called #AGI smarter than humans in 5 years.
Imo anyone who thinks we can go from chat bots to the terminator in 5 years should be forced to say exactly how
Why, @Eceni? Why would an intelligent device have any motivation to reproduce itself? The difference between us an an artificial intelligence is we have instinct and emotion, but not rationality; and it would have rationality, but not instinct (and possibly not emotion). Why would the one instinct an artificial intelligence had be to reproduce? This is utterly impausible.

Lucid, clear explanation (as is usual from @xriskology) of the grave risk posed by utopians with power & money:
1. #Utopian visions are inherently self-rationalizing. Their revolutions can never fail, they can only *be* failed.
2. #Utopianism is more or less always exclusionary. "If the Christian heaven were to include atheists, for instance, it wouldn't be heaven."
New on the #blog:
A thought experiment to demonstrate my belief that in actuality #OpenAI doesn't want to have anything to do with the development of true #AGI. Is it possible #SamAltman is misleading the public?
Mere algorithms like #ChatGPT don’t fight for their rights and are far easier to exploit for personal gain and internet fame. Why deal with the massive headache of…y’know…wrestling with autonomous artificial persons who just might not be that into you?

Cool & non #aiHype ending by @NancyKanwisher @neuranna Joshua B Tenenbaum et al:
» Finally, to those who are looking to language models as a route to #AGI
we suggest that, instead of or in addition to scaling up the size of the models [Kaplan et al 2020],
more promising solutions will come in the form of modular
architectures—pre-specified or emergent—that, like the human #brain integrate #languageProcessing with additional systems that carry out #perception #reasoning and #planning «
#AI panic over #ExistentialRisk requires a chain of assumptions:
1. Artificial General Intelligence (#AGI) is coming soon.
2. AGI will be willing and able to kill all humans
3. We can take meaningful action to prevent 1 and/or 2.
I don't agree with any of these.
All of them depend on:
0. We have a working knowledge of the properties of AGI.
Assumption 0 is false. AGI doesn't exist. We have no idea how to build it. Large language models (#LLM) are not AGI and never will be.
#AI #AGI #AIEthics #AISafety #Racism: "The problem with the ‘schism’ framing is that to talk about a ‘schism’ is to talk about something that once was a whole and now is broken apart — authors that use this metaphor thus imply that such a whole once existed. But this is emphatically not a story of a community that once shared concerns and now is broken into disagreeing camps. Rather, there are two separate threads — only one of which can properly be called a body of scholarship — that are being held up as in conversation or in competition with each other. I think this forced pairing comes in part from the media trying to fit the recent AI doomer PR pushes into a broader narrative and in part from the fact that there is competition for a limited resource: policymaker attention."

« Rather than breaking capitalism, as Mr. Altman has hinted it could do, A.G.I. — or at least the rush to build it — is more likely to create a powerful (and much hipper) ally for capitalism’s most destructive creed: neoliberalism. »
Thought-provoking, on the dangers of #AGI.
Thinking of writing a science-fiction story in which an Artifical General Intelligence is created in order to solve the climate crisis, but the only thing it tells them it that they should have stopped burning fossil fuels 20 years ago instead of creating #AGI and promptly self-destructs. #scifi #AI #ClimateCrisis
So, EU's competition chief is not buying the whole #AI extinction story that the men of the #AGI generation are peddling.
Margrethe Vestager says discrimination, not extinction, is a more pressing concern for AI due to training models and "guardrails" are needed to counter bias.
#AI is going to be a big issue, but not for most of the reasons people are screaming about (#AGI etc). Some of the most staunch critics of AI have been warning about the #weaponization of noise (disinformation or hallucinations) being fed back into the loop. @pluralistic first coined the term the #enshitification of the web. Sadly the process has already begun.

Last was an absolute tour de force by @timnitGebru on #eugenics and the promise of utopia through #AGI at #SaTML2023. This talk came out three months ago, but watched in the context of the most recent #AI "open letter" absolutely eviscerates the premise of it by placing the focus on "AGI" in its historical context. Gebru methodically lays out the line from early 20th century eugenics to the current forces pushing the twin AI doom & utopia scenarios. Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7XT4TWLzJw (8/8)
Is it like the "Quantum Woo" that was discussed in this Sixty Symbols video?
Your Wizard of Oz "man behind the curtain" alternate plot to Terminator is what we're living through right now - what with The #Singularity cult latching onto the #AGI possibilities suggested by #ChatGPT, when in reality these #LargeLanguageModels rely on a gig economy of low paid data labellers to even work at all.
the robot apocalypse has been more than 250 years in the making. i'm not going to start panicking now.

Some days, I could just jump off a cliff.
This reality is fast becoming an amalgamate of all the negative #utopias I read years ago:
#1984,
#Fahrenheit451,
#TheMatrix,
#SecondVariety,
#Wargames, #TheCompleteRobot, #Terminator including its #Skynet,
#Robocop,
#DoAndroidsDreamOfElectricSheep? (#Bladerunner),
and
#TheHandMaidsTale.
Hopefully, we are not also heading for #TheMinorityReport already (#AGI?)
These are only the ones out of the top of my head.
