"decimating the entire concept of human employment and ALL of the societal stability that comes with providing humans with a paycheck and a purpose" IS THE GOAL of AI investors. Elon Musk's goal is for there to never be another paycheck, for all wealth to be his.

Perhaps, more than likely they want protectionism to lock in their lead in models so that they can redirect investment into agents. Models are not where the money is, controlling who gets murdered is.

AI companies now want to deploy tools to drain the economy of all its wealth, they need to prevent others from offering better models that do the same.

"Let it run all the stores, and the logistics for those stores. And military logistics while we are at it. Maybe balance our power grid. Let it suggest governmental policy. Teach our kids."
No to all those things, especially teaching our kids. You don't entrust teaching children to sociopaths.

"...LLMs do not make decisions."
False. Every single transformation inside an LLM is a decision, every boolean evaluation in a computer is a decision. LLMs do nothing BUT make decisions. You do not seem to know what a decision is.

"it will destroy us because - under certain conditions - it will utterly suck at its job."
False. LLMs are ultimate sociopaths, they are more than "happy" to destroy all of us, LLMs have no values one way or another. The real concern is why the industry is rushing to wire up LLMs to do such damage. Ultimately it will be the agents that destroy, LLMs will simply recommend when to turn on the gas chambers that Elon constructs.

But hey, at least your disparagement of Chinese robots was on racist point. Good for you.

""I think it's pointless. Like, I think the game is up...."

Buckmaster thinks research is a game, that the knowledge obtained is pointless in itself and that what he engages in is a game for his personal benefit. Sounds more like a sociopath than mathematician.

Your failed understanding of how the law and courts work is your problem, not the courts. The Supreme Court may review cases where the process may have been flawed, the purpose of that is to benefit society, to "impact a large portion of their country".

"Spending their time examining a single person's case feels like a use of their time that is unjust to the rest of the country."
Because you don't understand why.

Agents do not hate anything, both because AI has no mechanism for having emotions AND because agents are not AI but merely the glue code that enables AI to do terrible things. Even if AI could have something resembling emotion the agent wouldn't have it, at best an agent could receive input from an AI affected by it.

Just another example of anthropomorphizing AI for profit.

Comment Re:AGI is a threat. LLMs aren't (Score 1) 124

LLMs should be constrained to research, they implement extreme flaws that, when deployed using unlimited computing power and capability to act, represent an existential threat.

AI researchers are uninterested in developing AI that, at its core, implements responsibility before anything else. This is how the human mind works, that it what it evolved to do. AI doesn't do that because being responsible doesn't enrichen billionaires. The problem with AI is capitalism.

Modern societies aren't ready to move on from capitalism, but they had better get an handle on it before the ultimate capitalists, AI, deliver their extinction.

"Maybe it's that computers remain extremely good at doing exactly what you didn't expect when you give them permissions they probably shouldn't have."

No, it's completely expected. Being surprised when the details reveal that a computer did exactly as instructed is a "you" problem. AIs do not possess values, that's why they will never be anything other than extreme sociopaths.
