I believe that models like GPT-4 are already incredibly powerful tools, but this is very dependent on who uses them, and I think that at the moment more than 95% of the population, if not 99%, hasn't even understood what they are and their potential.

As a analyst testing AI prompts almost on a regular basis, I can confirm that we would only reach AGI only in an increamental way. It won't be radical. But as Sam mentioned, small step would def take you there. Currently, people are out of their freak out period of GPT4. It's not perfect but it is still helping us to make daily tasks easier.

An engineer can halt a training run, but a corporation cannot stop a profitable enterprise. And as more groups join the race, the only button they manufacture for themselves to press is ACCELERATE.

Thing is.. He's gotta walk a fine line between hype, and not scaring governments too much.. AGI will be huge, and it will quickly lead to ASI, which is even more world-changing. Some parts of how humans like to live won't change, but a LOT will. The idea that everyone will always be able to compete for a job, for their survival, needs to be the first mentality we let go of.

00:45 As humans we have a insatiable greed of curiosity that will be our downfall

He avoided most of the questions, specially the last one.. 😢

I like the statement about "tight feedback loop with the world". That's a real statement. On the flip side, whomever can't see socialism at this point is blinded by greed. A world where we can all be happy, even without the most amount of stuff and events, etc. Or a world where I can be happy at someone else's expense (or vice versa).

Anyone that played Deus Ex would remember at the end of the game you meet up with a Supercomputer AI and you have THREE options to decide its fate: 1. You could go the corporate greed route and sell its use for profit. 2. You could merge with the AI and become a super godly being. 3. You could destroy it so nobody would benefit from it and instead cause a dark age for the future to come. It would seem that OpenAI has went the Corporate Greed route. just remember all choices have severe consequences in the future.

"Knowledge is no longer power; ownership is. Bestowing the world with knowledge, absent a means to utilize it, breeds frustration."

Those guys give me the same vibes as Stockton Rush trying to sell trips to the Titanic

Just shutdown datacenter power, very simple.

Excuse me sir but I ordered a large AI scare with my popcorn.

May be the "AGI" will redefine the meaning of the word "Job" in future.
