I’m one of those fools that thinks the current idiotic ai is exactly the same as a major component of our consciousness. You know how you can rattle off an opinion and a bunch of words without thinking? That’s what chat gpt does now. No executive function.

I’m pretty sure it’s end game for us chimp things.

AlphaGo played go better than anyone ever.

AlphaZero learned the rules of chess in 45 minutes, then with that 45 minutes of training it beat all the other modern chess programs.

Facebook ai research made a bot that beat all the best pro poker players.

The things people aspired to do well… that’s what ai is good at. Leaves us to do what? Make out with fake girlfriends? Do meth? What is it people are for?

The machines seem so dumb right now if you don’t know how to use them - easy to criticize. But next year, year after… there’s big changes coming.

It’s not good or bad, it’s inhuman, and we are going to get run over if we don’t adapt and embrace it.
