In the spirit of CCRU, me and a few dozen other people have been having ongoing discussions on related topics under the banner of effective extropianism. I think it’s important to figure out how the landscape of rapidly evolving tech fits i

Abstract: Theory of mind (ToM), or the ability to impute unobservable mental states to others, is central to human social interactions, communication, empathy, self-consciousness, and morality. We administer classic false-belief tasks, wide

It’s an error. You can get around the limit by scheduling a tweet a minute into the future or using the API to tweet/reply.

This may be true today, but the rate of progress on these tools is hitting a curve. Text and image generation are already basically indiscernible from human creations, and the entire space is now turning its attention to audio in tandem.

I think you’re right that code models are a vital research path toward AGI. The steps you elucidated are all expressible in natural language, and we see models like Codex Edit making headway there. One of the most fascinating parts of this

I don’t know what your argument is exactly, but it seems to be something like, “Software engineering is really hard so computers can’t do it.” A variation of that argument props up most common AI skepticism. I don’t think there’s anything o

That’s objectively wrong. Codex, AlphaCode, both surpassed by CodeRL on the challenging APPS benchmark last year. Meta working on InCoder. Microsoft working on UniXCoder… Future research directions are pretty clear from where we stand. That

I’m not sure if the rest of the responses here are reflexive self-soothing, or just caught on the “ChatGPT” product itself, but unequivocally, your anxiety is warranted. Code generation is moving extremely fast. This tech didn’t freeze in t

This aspect of loss of ego, extinction before subsumption of the remaining space by the superego, is precisely what has made certain types of Buddhism palatable to Western capitalism. It is not inimical to the Protestant work ethic, it is n

At certain scales that’s true but there’s plenty you can experiment with with just Colaboratory or Kaggle… at least to get some intuition before jumping to spending money.

No, apparently we don't. There's no reason to spread FUD about tools that increase productivity. There are still a lot of people in the world who don't have enough to eat.

What big companies are you referring to? Protecting data takes effort, so by virtue of that, intent is a necessary precondition. Most companies probably don't take care of these things at the rate or level you seem to be assuming that
