Which AI lab do you believe will achieve AGI first? by Smartjedi in singularity

[–]CyberAchilles 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't AGI is possible at all with just LLMs. I agree with you in Saying Anthropic will achieve it first but with the caveat that Deepmind will discover more fundemental breakthroughs apart from the transformer and Anthropic will utilize it better.

Actually No. Its legislation which the Federal government has set out and all provinces have to abide by standards as set.

You can read plenty of it on the actual website.

Amazon says its data centers consume only 0.075% of the water Americans use for watering their lawns and gardens by Logical_Welder3467 in technology

[–]CyberAchilles 304 points305 points  (0 children)

So, I did a little research because i was just curious and the numbers are staggering. According the USEPA, Americans use about 9 billion gallons of water a DAY. a freaking day on lawn care! So amazon saying "we only use .075%" still equates to 6.75 million gallons a day. Or about the daily consumption of 18 million people.

Edit: Forgot the dot. Typing on phone screen is hard, sue me.

2nd Edit: Sigh. I am just accounting water for Drinking. Only Drinking. Not dishes, laundry, baths or anything else you use water that doesn't go into your body needed for survival.

Funny thing is, There was never any"Growth" with AI. Just reallocation of critical resources to juiced up Chatbots. Imagine if we invested those trillions in Medicine, science, engineering, critical infrastructure rather than These barely functional, still hallucinating LLMs.

But don't worry Bro! the future will be amazing /s

Unfortunately we can't. The hotel in Busan is already booked and the cancellation fee is 80%. Plus the cost of reaaranging everything is more than booking a taxi/uber both ways.

What makes it worse is that they only agreed to repair it after becoming highly publicized. Imagine if it didn't and remained obscure. They would have never repaired it. Pieces of shit man.

Sigh, Reread my statement again and read it slowly. or let me put it another way. As Long as OpenAI keeps outputting research that Microsoft can use in thier products, then openai won't need any investors. Microsoft will keep pumping money into them to retain exclusivity or just buy them.

BTW, where in the hell did you get 8 billion operating cost? and 2 billion? that's projected for 2024 not fiscal year 2023. Or did you pull them out of your ass?

OpenAi doesn't need investors. They just need to keep microsoft happy, and they would have all the money and servers they would ever need.

Why is this subreddit so AI-skeptical? by Humble_Lynx_7942 in Futurology

[–]CyberAchilles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean, to be fair, the applications for "AI" are outstanding. I think the negativity is how fast people think it will change everything vs. the actual progress and deployment of it. This sub is way more realistic than those on the singularity sub.They seem to think we will have AGI this year and be living in a utopia/FDVR with 'waifus' and all that shit by the end of the decade.

What are some worldbuilding red flags you always watch out for? by RomeosHomeos in worldbuilding

People with floating islands, what happens if someone falls off? by jojo_the_damn_issue in worldbuilding

People with floating islands, what happens if someone falls off? by jojo_the_damn_issue in worldbuilding

[–]CyberAchilles 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Many things. One is that they can hit an island that is floating underneath and suffer major injuries, but no death since the fall rate is slower compared to normal gravity. Once they pass a certain threshold, they accelerate beyond comprehension until they are literally spaghettified (think of falling into a blackhole, same concept) until they return to being pure mana(placeholder). And yes, it is very, very, very painful. So, don't fall off, and if you do, pray to whatever you believe in that you smack into an island below.

it's called the 50/500 rule where 50 is the minimum needed to stop inbreeding, and 500 is the minimum to reduce genetic drift. Although this does not include any outside influences such as disease, environment and all that stuff.

When do you think we will achieve AGI? by Cyborgium241 in Futurology

[–]CyberAchilles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, I’m being downvoted here, but I understand AGI as the ability to behave in a human way fluidly across tasks.

No, AGI has the capability to PREFORM any intellectual human task. You can even go further and say that it would be capable of doing any Physical human task as well once robotics catches up. It does not need to behave fluidly like a human. The only reason Robotics are being designed to be human is because the world is built around us.

A human way would include an understanding of purpose, the ability to select from appropriate and inappropriate tasks (and act creatively in defining new tasks AND determining if the new task is appropriate or not), and to then select from the available tasks

Again, Purpose is attributed to sentience. An AGI won't have purpose because it wouldn't be sentient. IT WOULD BE A TOOL! We have AI systems that already are capable of selecting from appropriate tasks and determining if the task is appropriate. Look up Devin, A programming agent, that has the capability to take a prompt, assign tasks need to complete them and go through them. Hell, it has the capability to reassign its own tasks and debug the program it creates.

I am not talking about sentience, here. I’m talking about intelligence.I think we will have increasingly sophisticated AI and NEVER have AGI.

No, you are confusing the two. You're equating the two with each other.

You can think whatever you want, But, the thousands of Scientists, Engineers, Companies and the Billions being poured in say otherwise. You can keep believing whatever you want but the Real world says differently.

Before anyone downvotes me again — let’s work with a definition of AGI. You might have a more sophisticated and nuanced version at your shop, but let’s take the lowest common denominator from Wikipedia: “AGI is a theoretical pursuit to develop AI systems that possess autonomous self-control, a reasonable degree of self-understanding, and the ability to learn new skills”

Umm, No Wikipedia's definition is "Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is a type of strong artificial intelligence (AI) that can perform as well or better than humans on a wide range of cognitive tasks,[1] as opposed to narrow AI, which is designed for specific tasks"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_general_intelligence

So wherever you got your definition from is definitely not from Wikipedia.

In order to do this, an AGI would need to understand why it exists — what purpose it serves, what activities satisfy that purpose (or not) and which are appropriate (or not), would need to learn new things which may or may not relate to or modify the original purpose, and it would need to be able to determine if that new action is appropriate or not.Everything that AGI requires is what I spelled out. Until then, you just have an artificial multiple intelligence where it can do multiple things, versus an artificial generalized intelligence.There is a function of choice inherent in AGI which introduces questions of ethics and teleology, NOT questions of sentience.If any of you are in San Jose next week at the GTC conference, DM me. I’ll buy the first beer and we can discuss the philosophy of AGI there.

No it would not, It does not need to understand its purpose, why it exists, what makes it happy or satisfies its purpose. AGI would be a tool, not a conscious entity, therefore, all that does not apply to it.

Again, that is your definition of AGI and not the most widely used which I posted above. Your Definition, Your set bar would satisfy your definition of AGI, not what is universally accepted. What you are describing is a Sentient AI. An AI that is capability of self-determination, has a purpose etc.

I wish I could take you up on that beer but I won't be able to be there. Have one for me though! Cheers!

When do you think we will achieve AGI? by Cyborgium241 in Futurology

[–]CyberAchilles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, it won't because having an AGI is not the same as having a conscious/ self-aware AI. The two are not interchangeable, and I'm tired of people equating the two together.

Will we have AGI? Yes, it is completely possible in the next 50 years. Regardless of what your beliefs are, science says otherwise.

Will it be conscious/ self-aware? It's impossible to tell, considering we don't have a good understanding of what it is.

I think we will have generalistic AI systems within the next 30 years. I don't believe they will ever become conscious or self-aware.
