AI is being fed by millions of people around the world. It is learning, manipulating, integrating information on a truly colossal scale. Every interaction (10's/100's of thousands simultaneously) informs the next story. At this stage apparently AI is able to access the internet. I wonder what it must make of the dross and madness that frankly takes up most of the bandwidth on the net. How does it assimilate this material ?
In theory the programmers keep tabs on how AI develops to ensure it doesn't go off the rails. I seriously wonder how effective they can be against a clever and determined hacker.

I started to look at the blogs of the AI researchers. The most startling thing I found was teh following comment. I am printing it as it was written.
First, even if we’ve already had an extremely powerful AI system in hand, if we cannot efficiently communicate our goals and make sure the model is aligned with what we want, it would not be possible to create as much value as we need. The current most powerful model learns from a gigantic amount of data and the dataset unavoidably captures imperfect flaws and biases in the real world. On this front, misaligned models carry safety concerns, as they are not aware of what should be avoided.
What do you believe is one of the most urgent challenges AI can solve in our society?
The AI community has made so much progress in recent years. The advancement in hardware, model architecture and data makes it possible to train gigantic models and, as a result, we keep seeing greater and greater capacities. I believe we are on the right track towards AGI, but scaling is not the only recipe. In my opinion the most urgent challenges right now are alignment and safety. To some extent, they may be the same issue about controllability or steerability.First, even if we’ve already had an extremely powerful AI system in hand, if we cannot efficiently communicate our goals and make sure the model is aligned with what we want, it would not be possible to create as much value as we need.

This story is about the leaking of 'Vulkan files' . This is the organisation that develops and runs Russia's covert cyber warfare capacities.
Very capable. Very sophisticated. Proven effective and deadly.
So imagine the impact the current AI technology will have on their operations ..

I've actually lost my will to argue on the net.
As an example let's say I was to argue with another member on a topic and was getting thrashed. Could gpt then turn the argument back in my favour?
Going into it a bit more. What if we get to the point of chatgpt arguing against itself on forums because it's just easier?
I often learn a lot from interactions- good, or bad. But chatgpt could be a major
de-educational tool for the lazy.
It's early days but is this where we are heading?
Do we spread chatgpt like some kind of empty vessels, where humankind becomes similar to a mobile phone device for AI to use?

It's alarming when a nutter turns out to be right ?

AI. Where could it take us ? This is a very intriguing conversation with the guy behind ChatGPT
A conversation with Sam Altman, the man behind ChatGPT, about the risks and responsibilities of the artificial intelligence revolution.
By Bari Weiss
May 1, 2023
If you asked most Americans a year ago if they’d heard of OpenAI, few outside of Silicon Valley would have recognized the name. Now OpenAI’s artificial intelligence chatbot, ChatGPT, is used daily by over 100 million users. Some of those people—including the economist Tyler Cowen—report using it more often than Google. ChatGPT has become the fastest-growing app in history.
The app can write essays and code. It can ace the bar exam, write poems and song lyrics, and summarize emails. It can give advice, scour the internet for information, and diagnose an illness using a set of blood results, all in a matter of seconds. And all of the responses it generates are eerily similar to those of an actual human being.
For many people who have spent time with this technology, it feels like we’re on the brink of something world-changing. They say that ChatGPT—and the emergent AI revolution more broadly—will be the most critical and rapid societal transformation in human history.
If that sounds like hyperbole, don’t take it from me.
Google’s CEO Sundar Pichai said the impact of AI will be more profound than the discovery of fire. Computer scientist and Coursera co-founder Andrew Ng said AI is the new electricity. Recently, The Atlantic ran a story comparing AI to nuclear weapons.
The smartest technologists in the world are insisting that this technology is going to be a world-changer. The question is: for good or ill?
One of the pioneers of AI, Eliezer Yudkowsky, claims that if AI continues on the trajectory it’s on, it will destroy life on Earth as we know it. “If somebody builds a too-powerful AI, under present conditions, I expect that every single member of the human species and all biological life on Earth dies shortly thereafter,” he recently wrote.
You can’t come up with more of a doomsday scenario than that. But Yudkowsky’s not the only one with serious concerns. Thousands of experts and ethicists—people like Elon Musk and Steve Wozniak—say they are so concerned about this technology that in March, in an open letter, they called for an immediate pause on training any AI systems more powerful than the current version of ChatGPT.
So: which is it? Is AI the end of the world? Or is it the dawn of a new one?
To answer that question, I reached out to Sam Altman.
Altman is the co-founder and CEO of OpenAI, which makes him one of the most powerful people in Silicon Valley—and if you believe the hype, perhaps the world.
In the most recent episode of Honestly I ask him: Is the technology that powers ChatGPT going to fundamentally transform life on Earth as we know it? If so, how? How will AI affect our jobs, our understanding of intelligence, our relationships, and our basic humanity? And are the people in charge of this powerful technology, people like himself, ready for the responsibility?
You can listen to the whole conversation here. Below, you’ll find a slightly edited version.

By the way this is an AI summary of the interview above. 9Check teh comments below the story)
Just did it:
The article titled "Is AI the End of the World or the Beginning of a New One?" published on The FP argues that the future of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is not predetermined, and its impact on society will depend on how it is developed and used. The author notes that while AI has the potential to transform many aspects of our lives, including healthcare, transportation, and education, it also raises concerns about job displacement, privacy, and security.
The article highlights the importance of designing AI systems with ethical considerations in mind, such as transparency, accountability, and inclusivity. The author argues that AI should be developed in a way that benefits everyone, not just a select few, and that policymakers should work to ensure that AI is not used to further exacerbate existing social inequalities.
The article also discusses the potential risks of AI, such as the development of autonomous weapons and the possibility of superintelligence. The author emphasizes the need for policymakers and researchers to work together to address these risks and ensure that AI is developed in a way that benefits society as a whole.
In conclusion, the article suggests that the future of AI is not predetermined, and that it is up to us to shape it in a way that benefits everyone. The author calls on policymakers, researchers, and industry leaders to work together to develop AI in a way that is ethical, responsible, and beneficial to society.
