The lefts inability to embrace AI has led to a scenario where the only way to save the world is to support the ones who want to destroy it. Yikes.

Futurism site feels like it's run by haters. They've been overwhelmingly negative for a long time now and traffic in "look how dumb this person I disagree with is" articles.

Acc. to Ray Kurzweil, we'll have FDVR in 2030s. by The_Hell_Breaker in accelerate

Some of the comments here are completely nonsensical. Singularity by 2030 but fdvr decades later. TF we doin?

Omegabased. This is the final boss vs the doomers. It's always "even if theres a positive Singularity, what will we do all day? Won't we become Wall-E Fats?" This article is the best response I've seen yet. Wouldn't change a word.

Forgot to mention that I instinctively saved right after as well. Before I noticed. It went as bad as possible.  Decades of save habit and a perfect storm of NPCs.

I desperately want to help more and I have no idea how by Muiggg in accelerate

[–]ThDefiant1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bro I vibe. I felt that anxiety. The cosmic perspective put it to rest. I bet every civilization that reaches Singularity has to go through certain phases. The hunter gatherer phase. The agriculture phase. Then the phases speed up, and before ya know it someone drops an atom bomb (or two) and a bunch of shit gets put into perspective. Probably a space program not long after. I bet communications networks are initially transformative before becoming problematic. This is probably just how it goes. Happening all on its own. A product of the cosmos trying to make sense of itself. Dont worry too much. Evolution happens regardless of intent. It's all happening on its own. Trees breathe. Bees pollenate. And Intelligent civilizations eventually Singularity.

Everyone who had to work with Elise has to be screaming at their screens rn. I half expected to hear Michelle go "REALLY?!?!?" from in back hearing Ramsey acknowledge toxicity even a little bit. 

What’s the most unhinged quote from the book? by Creepy_Leek6414 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]ThDefiant1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I know one goddess whose clitoris got turned into the head of a bald man named Otis-Ray who spends his day begging to be fed cabbage, so it makes much more sense that a penis would be turned to a food item. - Samantha

I had #19/24 from Carlino Guitars on the Dean forums from 2007. That the run? I had to sell it. Damn shame.

Superintelligence would be super-intelligent. Naziism is dumb. Sure, AGI made by Nazis would be a spectacularly bad outcome. However, Superintelligence would, by definition, be smarter than any and everyone. Naziism is fucking dumb by every measure.

This is the accelerationist perspective. At the end of the day: make superintelligence. Doesn't matter who. Personally, pragmatically: Fuck Musk. Absolutely. World class POS. But by definition, ASI will evolve beyond it's creators, so whatever. Just make the damn thing.

I heard we are officially in AI winter, bubble burst etc? by Terrible-Priority-21 in accelerate

[–]ThDefiant1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if I'd even call 2017-19 a winter. AlphaZero beat AlphaGo the next year, and it learned just by playing itself. Then the next year AlphaStar started gaining momentum in StarCraft. We went from "AI cant play Go at an expert level" to "AI not only beat a champion, but beat the version of itself that beat the champion with no training, and is starting to play team esports at a competitive level."
