> When [...] all outputs are formally verified based on exquisite architectures and standards
replyand we all live in a green utopia of flying cars and peace upon the world.
I like to think,
(it has to be!)
of a cybernetic ecology
where we are free of our labors
and joined back to nature,
returned to our mammal
brothers and sisters,
and all watched over
by machines of loving grace.
if all the resources spent in useless wars were poured into working towards this goal, we would be there for some time already
replySure, but we should probably plan for what’s actually going to happen
replyI like how you haven't wagered which exquisite architectures and standards. I am sure we will all agree on what they are and follow them the same way :)
replyWill never happen, for the exact reason that we’ve almost never done that for human output either.
replyit is required now, or all civilization collapses.
replyCivilization collapses unless people stop being short-sighted and greedy, trying to cut corners whenever possible?
replyI know which outcome I'd put my money on.
You're going to have to expand on this one.
replyThey are expressing the idea that AI is so effective that it will make human work redundant necessitating a decoupling of resource allocation as a reward for performing work.
replyI don’t agree, but that’s the thinking
Another argument for less human-like AI then, I guess.
replyThat’s literally just software though.
replyThere was not a renaissance to move back to Assembly when Java sucked. Instead more Java developers were created.
replyThey are being developed, but it takes over a decade for this to happen normally
replyCan't come fast enough
replyWell a 2008 and a 2000 level financial crash is required for this. It is always during euphoric levels of delusion such events then occur.
reply...and it also needs more so-called AI companies present in the wreckage in this crash.
AI psychosis is undeniably real.
The entire stock market is undergoing AI psychosis.
replyThis is the new normal. AI will continue to reduce the need for human workers until a Universal Basic Income is established.
replyAt the end of the day robots can do the vast vast majority of jobs better and faster. If not now, very soon.
I only worry our economic systems won’t keep up
Because of the concerns you cite, I think working out the basic economic systems and incentives for paying people is a much more pressing concern than building magnificent machinery that we don't even own. There has been no effort on their end to demonstrate good faith nor to uphold their end of the social contract, which is why it's in our hands to demand the fundamentals to lead a life of dignity.
replyThe exact same thing was meant to happen when the desktop computer became prevalent. Then the internet. Look at us now.
replyYou’re forgetting the energy part of the equation.
replyHumans can already have 4 hour work week without productivity loss.
replyBut I only see mass layoffs and those who are working - are working longer and harder then before.
Most CEOs in my feed are convinced that AI makes people the equivalent of entire departments. AI should make your life easier, but instead it’s the opposite for a lot of people in the work force, which makes me really sad.
replyI think that’s called "hopium". Or wishful thinking, in less trendy language.
