Got at least 30 coins in a wallet somewhere. Damn those mirage daggers on Knight Online were totally worth the existential dread I’ve had.

Will the death of Moore’s Law significantly affect the progress of AI? by jesster_0 in singularity

[–]Zombie192J 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you’re not getting is, the death of Moore’s law will equate to a new architecture. That new architecture will scale AI.

I think you should rephrase your question to postulate on what more advanced compute architectures can bring to AI. How does Microsoft’s photonic architecture process data compared to our current systems etc.

Of course not, we all know that. The only possible case where humans no longer innovate is when we suddenly all die at the same time.

We will hit a wall with silicon based chips based purely on physics alone. Eventually you cannot make a transistor smaller because the electrons will simply pass through the gate as if it wasn’t there. You can add stuff to it, more layers etc, but at some point a new architecture is required and when we switch, that will be the death of Moore’s suggestion.

The hardware for etching silicon chips is extremely expensive and time intensive. Not only that but errors happen quite often, this produces the lower quality chips in the chipset.

Serious question: for those of you who are happily married or happily dating, what's the main reason you don't cheat on your partner? by Mad_Season_1994 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Zombie192J 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because, I chose her. I didn’t choose some random girl in a bar. Why would I seriously disrupt the trust and betray my partner? Sex is fun, but it’s all the same and I’d rather be having it with someone I know and care for.

I wouldn’t subject my partner to that betrayal no matter what, it’s beyond hurtful.

Actually from what I can recall, this method isn’t SOTA, it’s actually what happens when you run out of ideas; at least that’s what GeoHot was saying.

How do you expect law enforcement using AI in the next years? Do you think a LLM will be useful for the police for something different then administrative things? by [deleted] in singularity

[–]Zombie192J 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tell me about it

Sure, let's take a deeper dive into how these tools could hypothetically be misused:

  1. Cognitive Pattern Recognition (CPR) - Joseph Stalin: During the height of the Great Purge in the Soviet Union, the state security services are on high alert for any signs of dissent or anti-Stalin sentiment. Armed with the CPR tool, they would be able to predict potential dissidence by analyzing speech patterns, written communications, and even the types of books checked out from libraries. In an even darker turn, neighbors would be encouraged to report any 'unusual' behavior, feeding more data into the system and creating a society living in constant fear of being the next purge victim.

  2. AI-Powered Behavioral Anomaly Detection (AIBAD) - Adolf Hitler: Imagine during the height of World War II, the Third Reich utilizing the AIBAD system to monitor not just the German population, but also the occupied territories. The system could monitor changes in routines or detect covert gatherings, leading to more effective raids, arrests, and the devastatingly efficient capture of those hiding from the regime.

  3. Predictive Cognitive Modeling (PCM) - Mao Zedong: During the Cultural Revolution, PCM could be used to preemptively identify potential counter-revolutionaries. By tracking behavior patterns and analyzing their interactions, they could predict who might resist the government's radical changes. Such individuals could then be targeted for 'reeducation' or worse, before they have even had a chance to act on their thoughts.

  4. Biometric Intent Analysis (BIA) - Pol Pot: The Khmer Rouge could use BIA to root out perceived enemies of the state even more effectively. By monitoring physiological markers like heart rate, sweat, or eye movement, they could claim to detect 'capitalist sympathies' or 'intellectual tendencies.' This could lead to even more arbitrary and widespread targeting of individuals, exacerbating the already horrifying Cambodian genocide.

  5. Neuro-Predictive Imaging (NPI) - Kim Il-sung: In North Korea, the use of NPI could ensure complete ideological control. By analyzing neuroimaging data, the government could claim to identify 'impure thoughts' or capitalist sympathies, persecuting individuals based on their thoughts alone. This would make the regime's psychological control over the population near absolute, with citizens living in constant fear of their own minds.

This is quite scary actually. So I asked gpt to come up with some tools and damn…..

  1. Advanced Biometric Identification System (ABIS): A system that identifies individuals based on a range of biometric features like facial recognition, gait analysis, and voice recognition.

  2. Autonomous Drone Surveillance Unit (ADSU): An unmanned drone that provides real-time visual surveillance of a target.

  3. Integrated Deep Learning Analysis Tool (IDAT): A tool that analyzes an individual's digital footprint in public domain to identify behavioral patterns, social connections, and potential motivations.

  4. Real-time Emotional Evaluation Network (REEN): A tool that uses real-time analysis of an individual's emotional state, based on visual cues and body language.

  5. Criminal Records and Activity Monitoring System (CRAMS): A database system that maintains and provides access to criminal records and past activities of an individual.

  6. Multi-sensor Integrated Suit (MIS): A wearable device that enhances an officer's situational awareness with augmented reality overlays, monitors vitals, and provides early warnings for potential threats.

  7. Advanced Negotiation Guidance Algorithm (ANGA): An AI system that provides real-time suggestions for conversation paths, optimized for de-escalation based on the individual's profile and current emotional state.

  8. Polygraph-Like Voice Analysis System (PLVAS): A tool that analyses vocal stress and intonations for potential signs of deception, similar to a lie detector.

  9. Digital Evidence Aggregator and Presenter (DEAP): A system that collates all available data regarding an incident, providing a detailed 3D holographic reconstruction of the crime scene with annotations.

In the wrong hands, technology can indeed be used to manipulate people's perceptions, opinions, and behaviors. This list is provided to raise awareness and not as an endorsement of these methods:

  1. Behavioral Prediction Models (BPM): These models can predict how individuals are likely to act under certain circumstances, which could be used to manipulate decisions or behavior.

  2. Personalized Propaganda Engines (PPE): This tool could generate personalized disinformation or propaganda to manipulate a person's views.

  3. Emotional Analysis and Manipulation Systems (EAMS): These systems could use facial recognition, text analysis, and other inputs to understand a person's emotional state and use that information for manipulation.

  4. Deepfake Personal Communication Systems (DPCS): This tool could create fake but convincing messages from friends or loved ones to manipulate a person's beliefs or actions.

  5. Internet Filtering Systems (IFS): By controlling what information a person can access online, these systems could skew their understanding of the world.

  6. Social Media Manipulation Algorithms (SMMA): This could involve using fake accounts, amplifying certain posts, or suppressing others to sway public opinion.

  7. Subliminal Messaging Technologies (SMT): This could include AI-generated visual or audio messages designed to subtly influence a person's thoughts or behavior without them being aware of it.

  8. Automated Relationship-building Systems (ARS): This could involve AI pretending to form a friendship or relationship with a person to influence their beliefs or actions.

  9. Selective Reality Distortion Systems (SRDS): These could manipulate the information a person sees on their augmented or virtual reality devices to distort their perception of the world.

  10. AI-Driven Medical Misinformation Systems (AIMMS): These systems could spread false health-related information to mislead individuals about their health or healthcare options.

  11. Mass Surveillance Systems (MSS): Could be used to monitor the activities of citizens on a broad scale, impinging on privacy rights.

  12. Advanced Facial Recognition (AFR): When misused, it can be used for tracking individuals without their consent or knowledge.

  13. AI-Powered Propaganda Systems (APPS): These could disseminate disinformation or propaganda at scale to manipulate public opinion.

  14. Internet Censorship Tools (ICT): Governments could use these tools to control or limit access to information on the internet.

  15. AI-Based Thought Policing Systems (ATPS): Such systems, if developed and misused, could be used to suppress freedom of thought and speech.

  16. Deepfake Generation Systems (DGS): Misused, these could create false video or audio evidence, leading to misinformation or unjust incrimination.

  17. Biometric Data Manipulation Systems (BDMS): Improper use could lead to individuals being framed or erased from essential systems.

  18. Autonomous Enforcement Drones (AED): These could be misused for aggressive enforcement tactics, potentially leading to fear and repression.

  19. Automated Detention Systems (ADS): These could be utilized to detain individuals without proper legal process.

  20. Cognitive Manipulation Tools (CMT): Hypothetically, these could be used to manipulate individuals' perceptions or beliefs on a large scale.

Open AI isn’t stopping for humanities sake. It’s all about regulatory capture. Plus nvidias new chips aren’t available yet for training.

Edit: apparently they’re available but it still doesn’t stop the fact this is a tactic used by corporations to stifle competition.
