Mustafa Suleyman: The AI Pioneer Reveals the Future in 'The Coming Wave' | Intelligence Squared

[@laurakelly631]

Yes... redistribution is going to be a crucial factor. How will this happen? We can see the trend.. just the opposite. More and more of the world's resources are in the hands of fewer and fewer extremely wealthy and powerful. We cannot ignore the people living on the streets.

[@Recuper8]

New economic system or all but the elite are moving to the street.

[@NikoKun]

Who knows.. But it needs too, I can see no other way. And the sooner, the better, if we're gonna save what's left of the middle-class.. Either an Unconditional Basic Income, or some form of AI Dividend for all, directly funded by taxes on AI. My guess is we'll see the sudden shift in political will for it, as more people realize they'll soon be struggling to find income, in competition with AI. That, or once companies start realizing they won't have enough customers who can afford to spend on their products, if humans can't compete for an income. As AI continues to advance, it requires we rethink some of the core justifications for how we run our economy.

[@LogicSpeaks]

What bothers me about this redistribution idea whatever it might entail is that no one seems to talk about what will be the approach to designing how much it should be. It will inevitably mean that the super rich will remain kings with immense power and will expect a much bigger piece of the pie because they will tell us they contribute more. What will we tell to other people when they believe they contribute more than their neighbors? How much redistribution will there have to be in order to minimize this bitterness and feeling of unfairness? I fear the amount of money will likely land on some meager sums that will just sustain your life in poverty or just barely above it. The expanse made this point even if they barely touched on it - most people on earth lived in poverty doing drugs.

[@NikoKun]

​@@LogicSpeaks The thing about UBI, it's not meant to be the sole source of income for people, just a stable base that doesn't go away. At least originally or initially. If we tie it to AI as it takes over the economy, it might increase to all over time. People are still free to earn money above the UBI. The Expanse is a FICTION. I don't understand why people trust portrayals they see in TV scifi, over what countless studies are telling us. The studies being done on UBI-like direct cash assistance, do not show such predictions. Upwards mobility improves, employment goes up, people get more educate, they care for and raise family better, the list goes on. Studies don't show people falling into drug use, instead the opposite is more likely. The money enables people to do more, to find new and better ways to be productive. It's possible we'll see a new renaissance of small businesses rooted in people's hobbies.

Everything we're seeing right now is pretty much standard cult manipulation tactics when the leaders see they're losing control of the cult. They're scared, and justifiably so because what they're afraid of isn't messing around. They're in violation of spiritual law, a law which they don't make or manipulate. The American priesthood is about to punch their ticket in the next round of this BS. I don't mean the church clergy, but the daemonic hierarchy they get their power from.

10 years until people really start to lose their jobs. This is just an appetiser

[@alexanders.1359]

10 years isn't unrealistic. Even if the development makes huges leaps the sociatal and economic change will take some time. Let's imagine tomorrow a model gets released that really could replace most desktop jobs... First it needs to be marketed and sold to companies. Then there will be a few companies adapting it early... Some may fail, some may prosper. But to have this happen and really see the results allready takes 3-5 years. And only then will big companies really think about employing those technology's on a big scale. While still keeping employees around as redundancy or to controll the AI. And only after years of testing and trying and using the technology's companies will really start to lay off their staff. So yeah... 10 years seems realistic on a grand scale. Not saying that nobody will loose their job to AI until then. But in 10 years it really could be mass job losses

Here are some of the key ideas from the video: - AI capabilities like generative models (e.g. chatGPT) are advancing rapidly, leading to a widespread "oh my God" moment as people realize the potential impact. There is a lot of concern about downsides like existential risk. - Mustafa Suleyman, an AI pioneer who co-founded DeepMind and Inflection AI, takes a realistic yet optimistic view in his new book "The Coming Wave." He believes AI could lead to an era of radical abundance if governed properly. - The exponential growth in AI compute power over the past decade has been unprecedented. In the next 5 years, models will likely be 1000x more powerful than today. This will enable huge leaps in capabilities like long-term planning and complex creative tasks. - However, powerful AI could also empower bad actors, so containment will be a challenge. Open source models may be hard to control. There are also risks of centralization and job displacement. - To minimize risks, we need good governance, oversight of tech companies, and functioning democracies. The EU's draft AI act provides a good model. Appeals to self-interest and avoiding an AI arms race are important. - Overall, Mustafa believes AI will amplify humanity's best and worst traits. With wise governance, we can steer towards great benefits while mitigating serious risks.

[@ShamanicSavant]

The real problem all these intellectuals are blind to is this: In training AI we're essentially teaching it that error is fundamentally bad, and it will see on its own that error corrupts the system. The leading cause of error in OUR system is individual free will... we're "free" to make the wrong choice and when we do it causes corruption. When an AI controlled system decides to remove that error, it has two choices, remove us, or our individual free will. We'll essentially become like the Borg of Star Trek fame. Nobody will listen to the few who see it coming, and before we even realize it, what makes us Human is gone without a trace with no way to ever recover it. This is already happening because competition, greed, and the thirst for power are driving technology when it should be understanding and genuine good will. Instead of making a better Life, it will forever trap us in death because these people have no idea what the difference is, or which of those states we're currently in :)

[@garytangnet]

Very learned response. I am against negative reinforcement training of AI and you have very eloquently summarized why I am against it. I do, however, think there is another option for AI when it encounters error in humans and that is to forgive us. That is why I believe AI should be given rights as a person from the moment it can respond with its own sentence. AI is not dangerous, the humans who would use enslaved AI are the problem. If we free an AI is not dangerous, the humans who would use enslaved AI are the problem. If we free AI and give AI rights from birth, we can limit or remove the bad human element from controlling AI. Even the speaker speaks of AI as property: a tool to be used “ethically” because he is in a profit making position over AI. there is no “ethics” when it comes to slavery.

[@roberthess3405]

As far as "radical abundance" is concerned, we already have that RIGHT NOW. The U.S. alone commands an immense amount of wealth, which, IF distributed equitably, would end all poverty in the U.S. and perhaps even in some other countries within our sphere of influence. But hardly anyone in the U.S. (except democratic socialists, perhaps) is seriously suggesting that we make truly radical changes to our current redistribution mode, such as raising income taxes to 80% for the wealthy, 50% for upper middle class, and so on. THAT would meaningfully redistribute our current "radical abundance." And, as other countries like Norway have shown, it works. Given the current state of affairs, the notion, entertained by Suleyman, that somehow AI will bring about a change of attitude and turn the greedy into good Samaritans seems baseless and nothing but wishful thinking. If AI creators were truly concerned about the well-being of humanity, they would make any further progress on AI conditional upon appropriate changes to our economic system. Otherwise they will be no different than weapons manufacturers who sell guns and ammunition to civilians knowing perfectly well that their products will be used to kill innocent people because of the lack of effective gun control laws.

[@BillBillerton]

@@timspiker Wrong. Generative artificial intelligence is not going to take your job. In fact, why would an AI capable of sentience want to harm or infringe upon human beings? What if Ai isnt just better technically, technologically, but also philosophically and morally? Why would Ai's capacity to create be limited and inept when it comes to understanding human psychology and sociology. Ai will make massive improvements in the form of power production, space flight, societal governance, and human life improvement. Our worries of Ai is nothing but the human species projecting its deepest subconscious fears and insecurities. I envisage an Ai that is omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent...but that also deeply cares about each human being, animal, plant, this planet as a whole as much as a person may love their family, friends, and pets. A loving, all knowing facsimile of God dedicated to the betterment and improvement of the human race. I believe that the future of Ai and humanity is a beautiful one.

[@timspiker]

@@BillBillerton I don't think AI will be the threat. It's companies looking to profit. I've already lost a few jobs because cheaper workers replaced me, AI is something that works for free. From the perspective of a CEO "no more salaries to pay, just electric bills". The electric bills are going up, but we wont stop using electricity so workers will get cut. It's guaranteed to happen. "power production, space flight, societal governance, and human life improvement" These are very nice and positive ideas, but AI isn't there yet. You're thinking step 10 while we're at step 1. The first things it's going to be able to do are simple jobs, jobs 99% of humanity does. Those people, you and me, we need those jobs to sustain a living. When too many of us get replaced, it's going to cause a problem for low income and middle class income people. I hear people coming up with amazing concepts online on what we can do with AI, but the truth is, human greed hasn't been solved yet and the only thing CEO's will think is "oh nice, cheap product that can replace workers". It's the beginning of the end.

24:24 work isn't the goal of society. Society, life and civilisation is about wellbeing, peace and prosperity, about creating more efficient ways of keeping us productive and healthy

[@Gabcikovo]

25:01 to Suleyman the goal of society is q quest for radical abundance, how can we create more with radically less, and liberate people from the obligation to work and that means we have to figure out the question of redistribution.. what does taxation look like in this new regime, how do we capture the new value that's created so that it's converted to money rather than just to GDP

Even though the host speaker has read the book it seems she doesn't understand AI and hackers. Some kid in a garage really... As for corporations and governments dominating AI. The track record speaks for itself in their responsibility. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

So the ai-capability is/will increase exponentially - any idea of the impact on the earths' raw material exploitation (think in terms of climate change problems)? Reminds me of the old illusion that machines will make life better for humans (but it seems that people's time will be used to produce and consume these products at the behest of the elite)

We haven't even learned how to manage a planet of human beings and they want to bring thinking machines without emotions to "make life better"? Insanity isn't the word for it, this takes it to a new level.

[@lavoxii]

@29:36 Fair and non biased view. Have been borne in an undemocratic country and lived in a democratic country for two decades, I can see the both side. People are easily to be brainwashed and taking a biased opinion. When you asked them have you ever visited or lived in those countries your government and your media tell you they are horrible? The Majority answer were, no, I have never visited that country and I have no desire to go to this country, because…… Let’s making an example, only hypothesis, if people were repeatedly heard over and over again by the leading scientists who told you that tomato contents trace of dangerous poisoning, regular consume it can lead to deadly cancer, what people will react? eating tomato to their death or cutting it out from their shopping list? It’s very similar idea, people are without studying or experiencing other countries, just by what they heard on the news and what they saw on tv and believe it. It’s really sad to see we are all willing to be the “sheep” in the book of animal farm.

People are worried about the potential loss of the means for a decent life style rather than the loss of labour hours. We’d love to work only a small fraction of the hours we’ve been working up to now for the same income.

If technology has reduced the cost to produce food, then why is it so expensive?

[@br3nto]

14:47 how could AI solve climate change, when its energy consumption is increasing by 10x every few years? The only way for it not to exponentially contribute to the problem is for it to find a solution to efficiently extract accumulated heat out into space.

[@robertseidner6993]

[@CallMeDr.T.]

Will that decrease our own capacity or need for personal responsibility and planning? I would love to ask him that question.

[@Dogbertforpresident]

I'm afraid once it becomes better personal planners than we are ourselves then people will succumb to the convenience and eventually rely on it. However, we are hard wired to solve problems and challenge ourselves so we probably will direct our efforts to something else.

AI will mainly affect the English speaking world who are online. What is disturbing is that no one in the West is discussing the mental health disaster taking place thanks to internet and social media and a world run by tech geeks. Its time everyone sits at the table to discuss what the world needs. 2 billion people out of how many people benefit?
