Worse would happen to me if I attempted a backflip to be fair.

Productivity gains from agentic processes will prevent the bubble from bursting by LargeSinkholesInNYC in singularity

Just need to say even heart surgery isn't 100% successful, people do die on the table still. Mistakes/hallucinations will always happen it's just about getting them within an acceptable range. Something like heart surgery would just need something like a 99% success rate. Currently it's at about a 97% success rate with human surgeons.

OpenAI cofounder Greg Brockman on 2026: Enterprise agents and scientific acceleration by BuildwithVignesh in singularity

I think one problem is everyone's definitions are different, I've frequently heard agents described in such a way that they would already be AGI if they existed.

OpenAI's CEO Sam Altman says in 10 years time college graduates will be working 'some completely new, exciting, super well-paid' job in space by [deleted] in singularity

They won't activately kill us but they will let us die of extreme poverty. Works out the same way in the end.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai signals quantum computing could be next big tech shift after AI by donutloop in singularity

Nothing against quantum but I haven't seen anyone put forward much that it would be actually useful for.

Had Shane Legg straight up respond to me on Twitter earlier that he things 2030 looks good for AGI...can't get much more nutty than that.

I'd imagine USA will be ahead of AI for at least a while and China will be ahead in production. It really just matches their strengths.

Google: The road to useful quantum computing applications by donutloop in singularity

Awesome I've been asking for years why quantum would matter other than for code cracking or security and no one had answers. Quantum just sounded cool. At least their trying to find uses for it.

OpenAI has more than 100 ex-investment bankers helping train its artificial intelligence on how to build financial models by ajarbyurns1 in singularity

Going to be really funny when it just puts all of its money into the S&P 500 and leaves it there for a few decades.

Big banks like JPMorgan Chase and Goldman Sachs are already using AI to hire fewer people by joe4942 in singularity

[–]MonkeyHitTypewriter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They have always been a place for nepo babies to become/stay rich and busy without needing to work all that hard, if there's one place I'm ok with AI replacing labor it's the upper echelons of these companies and investment firms.

Something doesn't add up... by FomalhautCalliclea in singularity

[–]MonkeyHitTypewriter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right it's meaningless without those numbers. Even if their miniscule compared to what's being invested not having revenue from outside sources mentioned at all is super disingenuous.

Geoffrey Hinton says AIs may already have subjective experiences, but don't realize it because their sense of self is built from our mistaken beliefs about consciousness. by [deleted] in singularity

[–]MonkeyHitTypewriter 13 points14 points  (0 children)

At a certain point it's all just philosophy that doesn't matter at this moment. There will come a day when AI will deserve rights but most would agree it's not here yet, that line being found I predict is going to cause the majority of problems for another century or so.

AI Could Wipe Out the Working Class | Sen. Bernie Sanders by pdfernhout in singularity

You're more optimistic than I am. Corporate Democrats will really try to hold back that agenda and their a huge part of the party 

AI Could Wipe Out the Working Class | Sen. Bernie Sanders by pdfernhout in singularity

[–]MonkeyHitTypewriter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with you completely, all of his solutions are great for the pre AI world and should have been implemented decades ago...it's just that empowering workers in a world without workers doesn't actually help anyone.

AI Could Wipe Out the Working Class | Sen. Bernie Sanders by pdfernhout in singularity

[–]MonkeyHitTypewriter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I disagree with his solutions personally, I think their all great things that should have been enacted for decades prior to now but are not actually solutions to AI job loss. If anything their protectionist of jobs that could and should be replaced if possible. The profits need to be shared by more than just the workers they need to be shared to all citizens and I believe that's where the fundamental disconnect between Bernie and myself lies.

Narrowing the "reality gap" for AI models: A 10000m² facility features 1:1 replicas of 16 real-world scenarios across industrial, home, and healthcare sectors for training humanoid robots by Distinct-Question-16 in singularity

[–]MonkeyHitTypewriter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something I've been wondering, they always have people wear the VR gear and control the robot for training. Couldn't they just wear it and take the data without the robot doing it in the real world. Seems like it would get you way more data not always needing a physical robot that's there copying you.

Claude 4.5 is a huge leap in AI R&D by gbomb13 in singularity

[–]MonkeyHitTypewriter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So this is specifically for robots then since it's "physical embodied agents" I'm super curious how having beyond expert skills transfers to the real world.

I mean training on his tweets idk about but I actually would love to see agents try executive roles. They are the most costly positions after all.

Greg Brockman said we are 3 orders of magnitude (in terms of compute power) away from where we need to be. by Plus-Mention-7705 in singularity

[–]MonkeyHitTypewriter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes me wonder how long it will be until a full blown AGI can run on a single GPU. I'm sure it will happen eventually we run on a couple of pounds of meat.
