Max Tegmark | On superhuman AI, future architectures, and the meaning of human existence

[@stephengreene8774]

What a great privilege to hear Max puzzle out the future of humanity for us all to listen in.

[@zdenekburian1366]

not so much intelligent answers, he cannot solve human mankind's problems with equations or ai, you have to make a social revolution beyond the capitalistic system, and ai cannot help, since it is a property of the ruling class; also, physics equations are full of scams: virtual particles, entanglements, superpositions, singularities, dark energies, material points with zero extension, and every sort of math fudges and tricks totally disconnected from reality.

[@ConnoisseurOfExistence]

I currently study data science. When we were learning about the different types of neural networks, I immediately thought why do we put so much effort in developing feed forward networks, while clearly the recurrent neural networks are much closer to how the human brain works, being able to bounce back and forth the data many times. Now I hear Tegmark thought of the same thing. This is not the first time this happens, we actually think very similar. That's why he's one of my favorite modern scientists, together with Roger Penrose and Stephen Wolfram.

[@yeahyeah410]

[@lycakito1814]

Like listening to Max, have been listening to him for years, since I was studying Philosophy and consciousness. Max, David Chalmers, Andy Clark, Derek Parfit (Of course Sadly passed Daniel Dennett). Not sure I completely agree with his views here but it seems silly not to follow his advice. If he's wrong and we follow his advice, we just end up on a slower timeframe. If he's right, then we end up with an existential issue. Logic dictates that we listen to this rather than ignore it, even if his view is not entirely agreeable. However Max Tegmark is one of my favourite philosophers and I like that he's out challenging views - it's great to have all opinions.

[@kreek22]

I agree, but this logic conflicts with multiple incentives for acceleration: personal greed, fear of death (eg, Kurzweil), the structure of corporate competition, the logic of international competition (AI may be the ultimate determinant of who rules the world). I suspect that if things moved really slowly hereafter, AI would spawn new religions, which is another potentially dangerous incentive environment.

[@lycakito1814]

@@kreek22 Yes agree with what you said also, a slow take off could cause all types of issues and obviously like you said, that requires everyone to agree (and if there's one thing we know about humans, we rarely agree). Although people have pointed out that we managed before and (to some degree you could argue) slowed down nuclear weapons proliferation. I'm not sure the two comparisons are equal though - comparing might be wrong. I'm on the side that great intelligence doesn't require or seek power or control, creating AGI-SGI usually points to a dystopian future. However, imagine a world with hundreds or thousands of Einsteins, Da Vinci's, Galileo's etc... Plato's, Socrates. Might it be so bad? Maybe new more moral beings ... able to see more ethically then we are! Of course the counter argument to that is imagine a world with 1000s of Lenin's, Hitler's... and what we'll probably end up with is a combination of both types of AI's Good and Evil, Moral and Immoral because 'Men' will corrupt it for their own power and religions etc.

[@steveflorida5849]

​@@lycakito1814the proliferation of AI information/propaganda will challenge humans to ethically progress. Therein, the collective morality of the human condition/nature will be the determining factor of global peace, prosperity, and cultural unity. Unity of goals not necessarily uniformity -- including within business, politics, race, religions, and family.

[@skierpage]

​@@lycakito1814we already live in a world with thousands of Lenins and Hitlers, and a few of these sociopaths are running big corporations that have the most advanced AIs. We need to worry about the goals and alignment of future AIs, but it's far more important to immediately worry about the goals of the tech titans, which seem to be: hook people on a stream of divisive inflammatory content to learn everything about you to sell to advertisers, resist any attempts to limit their power, and avoid taxing wealth.

[@kreek22]

@@lycakito1814 The temptation to analogize advanced AI to humans should be resisted. It's a form of religious thinking. These systems are far more alien to average humans than geniuses or psychopaths. Historically, these categories of humans were difficult to predict, especially the geniuses, since they brought new things and ideas into the world. Advanced AI is likely to be even more unpredictable. We don't want to live in the same galaxy as unpredictable entities with superior cognitive reach, much less on the same planet. Humans have different values from each other. AIs, that is, alien entities, will likely have values which are severely disjoint from humans. There is another philosopher who has written extensively about AI and consciousness, and was unmentioned in your OP: RS Bakker. To get a sense of his approach I recommend two book reviews he wrote: "Visions of the Semantic Apocalypse: A Critical Review of Yuval Noah Harari’s Homo Deus" and "Enlightenment How? Pinker’s Tutelary Natures." He also engages quite frequently with Dennett's work, including a long multi-part review of From Bacteria to Bach.

[@maxtroy]

I agree with you. I’ve loved science and technology my whole life, used to watch tomorrow’s world as a kid and I loved imagining “imagine the possibilities!” For the first time ever, when I imagine what’s possible, I see a LOT possible, the bad greatly, greatly exceeding the good. And not just in a traditional disaster way, but in an insidious way that pervades every nook and cranny of our lives and souls. Metaphorically speaking, it feels as though we are creating power and ability previously only available to God, and handing it over to the devil, and once the deal is done, we can’t go back on it.

[@maxtroy]

Dan Dennett said we will see the proliferation of an unlimited number of “fake people”. Up until now we haven’t really had fake people, just people pretending. But at least those people pretending had to live in the real world, slept, got sick, and were limited in number. An unlimited army of programmable fake people all working for the shadowy forces of evil that currently control the world? God help us, and please forgive us

[@FigmentHF]

Maybe, but I think it will be apes using the AI in nefarious ways, I personally don’t think they will ever be conscious, in the way a dog is, but it will be intelligent, like a 10,000 IQ virus. I see dangers in allowing it to prompt its self in some way, and that leading to a cascade of undesirable actions. I can see revolutionaries trying to erase our financial systems, delete the internet. My number 1 concern with regards to technology, is how we’re making it much easier for a very small group of people, or even an individual, to ruin almost everything for almost everyone. From symbio threats like engineered pathogens, to cheap explosive drones making commercial flights an easy target for any terrorists. We’re going to enter a future where you can order some vial of matter off the dark net, and microwave it to cause a huge explosion. War will be fought via AI jets, drones, quadrupedal and bipedal robots. Serious attempts to gain contrail of earth, will resort to synthetic biology weapons and chemical weapons. These dangerous and unstable regimes and democracies, (this includes most on earth, in some hierarchy) know that WW3 will be all about cyber warfare, AI autonomous warfare and potentially synthetic biological attacks. Covid reminded the world how weak and vulnerable we are. It’s also incredibly easy to spread cancer in our systems, to make individual cells of society, a person, work against the interests of her own nation. Misinformation, culture war, popularism, divisive rhetoric. You can make a nation eat itself from the inside, by exporting your hyper-normalisation via social media. This can all be avoided, though! :) It’s easy, we are just little Bayesian boys trying to predict stuff, people are more predictable when they believe what we believe, so we have to make our narrative framework win. That’s why we do war. Kill unpredictable people. So, we need to find a basic shared narrative and let each other live, in our own ways. We need tolerance and understanding. We also need loads of money and food and shelter. We need AI to make us resource abundant so that people have something to loose. Everything will turn out sunny and happy and perfect :) ✨

I reckon the argument, also maintained by Stuart Russel, that the AI companies should be given permission to publish subject to safety proof provided to the regulators, is fallacious. If these guys are not allowed to publish for whatever reason, they will be developing it in stealth. They can afford to, plus the army will always be interested and investing. Therefore drug-style regulation will have little impact on the problem, which is the safety standards of the technology under development.
