The objective was to make a machine that could beat anybody at chess. Nobody on the Alpha Zero team believes Alpha Zero is an example of general AI. Teaching a system to understand a complex system is a necessary subcomponent of general int

If a lookup table can predict human decisions with high accuracy given access to its senses and feelings, then either a human is just another can opener or intelligence isn't real.

I wouldn't use this personally, but to me it's pretty clear that the use of 'quote-unquote' is meant to denote sarcasm more strongly than quotation marks.

And yet computers continue to perform tasks that were talked about for years as something uniquely human / intelligence driven. This is a nice philosophical debate, but in practice I think it falls flat.

But... you would. If all elderly people dropped dead right now, deaths per year would plummet for decades.

Leave where? Ireland? Amazon might choose to leave Ireland and go to the Bahamas, and that sucks for Ireland, but Amazon's situation doesn't really change. The US can still send a tax bill to Amazon's door.

Ballpark yes, but that's likely a huge overestimate, as even normalized to age, its people with co-morbidities that have the lion's share of deaths.

by klmadfejno 5y ago
That's only true if a random sample of the population dies. If we assume (and I'm making this up) that in the steady state, the elderly comprise 90% of deaths, then if a war kills only young people, you'll expect a substantia

I found this question poorly worded, because you can only ask "What would the other assistant tell me to do". I assumed both would try to tell me to agree to the terms. Not what would they tell me to do if I asked them how to opt

There's a line of can't/won't/shouldn't here though. The AI systems probably could drive in these conditions. Most of them utilize GPS to navigate. But they don't because that's a high risk activity.

Self driving is, in my opinion, ironically, a trolley problem. If enabled in mainstream usage, we'd probably see total deaths drop, but they'd be shifted to a more random set of people dying for stupider reasons. Would you rather
