When Albert Einstein builted the atomic bomb he didn't have any safeguards... just drop the thing. kill them all! You see, what THEY won't tell you..

To be clear, he is not blocking safeguards. He is saying slowing done AI development is not a good idea. He is correct in saying that, because if the competition (China, Russia) does not conform to those guidelines, they will end up with far more potent and aggressive AIs than those of OpenAI and Anthropic. Have you read Neal Stepheson's cyberpunk novels 'Snow Crash' and 'Cryptonomicon'? In there human agents don headgear and penetrate enemy cyber-defences, a bit like (virtual) fighter pilots navigating a war zone. Considering the novels were written in the 1990s - well before current AI developments - they are quite visionary.

Much less dangerous than artificial stupidity. Most people recognise real stupidity, but a lot of people don't recognise artificial stupidity or even think AI must be cleverer in ways they cannot fathom.

On the other hand, consider the following examples of intelligent design. 1. Our arms are exactly long enough to reach our genitals. 2. A well-formed turd is the same size and shape as an erect penis. This gives some insight into the thinking of the designer. -- Peter Moylan peter@pmoylan.org http://www.pmoylan.org Newcastle, NSW

A civil > engineer of course: who else is capable of laying the waste disposal > systems through and along the leisure/pleasure areas? > It is quite obvious that you are posting this from some other group than sci.physics.relativity. Because when we turn our pages in the nearest book of Newtonian physics [1] -- please forgive me, I don't have one handy -- to practical applications of /gravity/, we see that the planet helps with both bowel movements and childbirth. The latter of course only if you're a woman, pregnant, and in labor [3]. Of course, western style toilets [4] do not make it easy to apply the practicality of a graviton [5] to bowel movements, so it's best to stand on the toilet seat, and then squat down in order to align the last end of the rectal intestine perfectly perpendicular to the horizon, and let the nearest graviton pull it down at its leisure rather than have to strain [6] to get rid of some extraneous fecal matter. People who have never had pleasurable bowel movements of course don't know this trick, and will in error and confusion not understand the mind of /the creator/ of humanity. Simply because the are using western loos wrong. Please don't be that guy, and apply wisdom and experience to the simple things in life, rather than post something utterly inane and id- iotic on Usenet like a character from Black Adder [7]. Now, wugi can simply direct us to the nearest chapter in his or her You- Tube station, where he or she explains the best way to have a bowel movement like the character in Black Adder he or she is. I mean, it /has/ to be funny, because nobody is intentionally that stupid, right? Best wishes, and happy reruns of Black Adder! [1] An Englishman isn't a real [2] patriot unless he has a copy of New- tonian physics on his bookshelf. [2] For some value of real. Perhaps /real/ value'd variable in Fortran 77? [3] And hopefully not in a labor camp, but possibly a labor union; though I don't recommend communism for obvious reasons. [4] But not toiletry. We are posting in alt.usage.english, of course. [5] The members of sci.physics.relativity will have to comment on which graviton, and whether that spelling is considered scientifically correct. My copy of a speling [sic] chequer [sic] does not have that word in its vocabulary. [6] But not a viral strain. Not even on social media. [7] People of rec.arts.tv will have to have something to imitate. Isn't rec.arts.tv about creating new shows for television? So I presume all posters of rec.arts.tv not only have their own YouTube station, but make better jokes than the ones we enjoy in Black Adder! -- Johann | email: invalid -> com | http://www.myrkraverk.com/blog/ I'm not from the Internet, I just work there. | via Easynews.com https://bsky.app/profile/myrkraverk.bsky.social | for ( ;; ) _:; Federated at https://fed.brid.gy/bsky/myrkraverk.bsky.social
