[@kinngrimm]

Especially about a technology that is not yet(maybe never) complettly understood. A statement several AI experts currently are still holding. We have approaches to remedy that, but it takes time for them to come to fruition and having market pressures urge companies to be the first and win, could turn out counterproductiv. Already economists warn about a bubble where 500 billion were invested in a short period of time while maybe 10 billion in revenues are flowing. So many are stepping up their AI game, which in terms of competion may seem a good thing, but are they all going about it in a safe and secure fashion? The military and its equipment has very tough restrictions on how programmes need to be coded and i think AI companies need to have at least such strict regulations for the building of AI systems.

[@kjshy]

​@@arab6745he was asked which he admired Edison or Tesla more? He responded Edison. I was genuinely surprised because I thought of Elon as a dreamer. His reason is because Edison was a better marketer. At first, this I minded, but when I thought of actual achievements, Edison did far more while Tesla was a genius. To humanity, Edison was more helpful. I don't know if Tesla was not stopped. He should have done something to protect himself. IMO. By the above reasoning, I understand why you don't like the I'm, but it made me understand his motivation more. What I find more interesting is that while his short term goals change all the time as technology is always changing, his long term goal never changed. In my opinion, his ability to market is part of him like it or not. I don't think it is a bad thing. I think being able to persuade people to try new is incredibly hard thing to do.

Don't think that most people really understand what Tesla is. Most of the folks who listen to Lex do, but that accounts for the minority of the folks who own Tesla stock. I've tried to explain it to investor friends and they tout headlines rather than evidence, claiming anecdotes like "Company X is closer to getting higher level autonomy clearance", or other non correlated data. They don't realize the immense training data that Tesla's AI ecosystem has been building since 2013ish, and that's even if they comprehend that Tesla is a spatial AI and robotics company and not an automotive company in the first place.

I think certain technological advancements, such as AGI, should be developed outside of the capitalistic structure and should be a globally collaborative and beneficial effort.

[@ZappyOh]

Humanity couldn't even begin to debate exactly who should/could work on such a project. Development of AGI is extremely political and deeply militaristic in nature. We would either go to war over it, or just never get anywhere, while everyone develops in secret. This technology can only bring us closer to the abyss.

[@AlteredVisioned]

A partnership could be formed between the best universities in the world, in regards to computer science, physics, philosophy, etc. I think a conflict such as a war would create a great sense of unity for this project. unfortunately/fortunately there is no outside factions for humans to compete with in this pursuit so the competition has to be between ourselves which will lead to inequality, as the group to figure it out will not willingly share it for free. Ultimately this technology, like the exploitation of the atom, will be developed unless we lose the ability to develop it. I just hope precautions are taken to avoid social and economic disasters.

[@disgruntledwookie369]

I think the focus should be on deduction rather than "truth". Mathematically speaking there is no absolute truth, all truths are either 1. derived from other truths by implication 2. Tautologies 3. Axiomatic. There only reason there appears to be absolute truths in physics is because there are certain things which are axiomatic to our existence, that is, if they weren't true, you wouldn't exist. So when you ask the questions, there are axioms from which other truths can be derived. But a la Godel, there are also true statements which cannot be proven from the axioms. As Elon says, we can *aspire* for truth and we should but that's the best we can do. And any super intelligence would know that. If we want to avoid long term idiocracy, the general public needs to learn to appreciate the subtleties of logical deduction, and when an AI gives an answer to a question it should list all the assumptions and deductions it used to arrive there. Each individual logical step, just as a mathematician would when presenting a formal proof.

You need about halve a brain and the whole nervous system to control your body. Compared to that a interface seems rather simple.

You’re supposed to overcorrect when you call for indirect fire too. We called it bracketing. It’s cool to find multi-disciplinary principles. I’m going to have to remember this. It reminds me of the Pareto principle. Which kind of seems to apply just about anywhere you look.

I wouldn't write them off. The company was hobbled together very, very quickly and the models they've released so far weren't trained with that much compute. I think k we'll have a clearer picture of things when Grok 2 and 3 come out later this year.

Thats Polydactyly. It's actually a quite common case if someone is born with a gen-defect around it's hand. It's usually a really tiny pinky that has the muscles you have inside your hand. But it's not linked to the forarm. So people can feel with it but it can't generate a usefull force.
