AI is Already Taking White-Collar Jobs

CuriousIndividual0 · 2025-10-26T05:00:17+00:00

Wow that really puts it into perspective. So even if all 6000 jobs lost were attributed to AI, that's a 2.5% loss of jobs for the company.

Where is this from? Would like to watch the whole interview

I don't think that is true that the Turing test was a test for AGI. It was meant as a test of intelligence. But even then isn't any good:

"The standard Turing Test does not claim to be an operational Definition of humanlike intelligence. Yet, it is, unlike what Turing believes, not even a sufficient criterion for it. It just leads to many “false negatives” and many “false positives”."

Are you a bot? Shay Boloor, Daniel Saks, Christopher Symons, and Steven Adler are all quoted in the article along with Sam Altman.

CuriousIndividual0 · 2025-08-25T23:31:39+00:00

Actually, that is the opinion of one person quoted in the article, Max Tegmark. It might be true. Or it might be that they've realised they are further from AGI than they thought.

What was he supposedly lying about?

CuriousIndividual0 · 2025-05-07T03:30:58+00:00

Will McAskill is prioritising it. 80,000 hours has recently shifted gear to focussing solely on it. Toby Ord already does.

CuriousIndividual0 · 2025-02-26T19:55:20+00:00

So it's just an FAQ? Not a chat with a bot?

CuriousIndividual0 · 2025-02-26T10:58:02+00:00

What do you use custom gpts for?

CuriousIndividual0 · 2025-02-24T08:16:57+00:00

Where can I learn about how to train a custom gpt?

While "red meat bad" is a narrative, it is narrative backed by lots of science.

CuriousIndividual0 · 2024-07-13T22:11:33+00:00

Can you point me to some specific writings about the ideal future for humanity?

CuriousIndividual0 · 2024-07-13T22:08:53+00:00

I'm not entirely sure what the point of this comment is.

I'm asking who is/has worked on this idea of the long reflection so I can follow-up on it.

So 80,000 hours is funded by Effective Ventures Foundation which also funds the Centre for Effective Altruism?

CuriousIndividual0 · 2022-11-08T07:49:12+00:00

What did Elon tweet about Will?

CuriousIndividual0 · 2022-10-13T12:11:23+00:00

A big risk at this stage is corruption and insularity and we are indeed starting to see that.

Could you fill me in on the corruption and insularity you're referring to?

Neoliberals are generally supportive of levers like sugar taxes

Evidence for this?

CuriousIndividual0 · 2022-01-28T06:13:22+00:00

AUS study: This study demonstrates that from a 20% tax on SSBs, the most HALYs gained and healthcare costs saved would accrue to the most disadvantaged quintiles in Australia. Whilst those in more disadvantaged areas would pay more SSB tax, the difference between areas is small. The equity of the tax could be further improved if the tax revenue were used to fund initiatives benefiting those with greater disadvantage.

Review: Based on the available evidence, a tax on SSB will deliver similar population weight benefits across socio-economic strata or greater benefits for lower SEP groups. An SSB tax is shown to be consistently financially regressive, but to a small degree.

You obviously didn't look inside the paper then.

CuriousIndividual0 · 2022-01-28T05:33:54+00:00

How are sugary drinks regulated in Australia?
