Top Moments From ChatGPT Creator’s Congressional Testimony

I’m sur­prised the big chal­lenge was only men­tioned briefly. “This is a tool, not a mon­ster.” The prob­lem was not the atom bomb. The prob­lem was how peo­ple used the tech­nol­o­gy. Chat­G­PT is not the prob­lem. It’s a great gift. The chal­lenge will be how we use it. It was fun­ny to hear Con­gress ask about the fear of mis­in­for­ma­tion spread by the very peo­ple ask­ing the ques­tions. Again, PEOPLE. These con­ver­sa­tions should not be restrict­ed to timed respons­es on TV where peo­ple can pop out their sound bites. This needs to be an emer­gency lock down ses­sion to get this con­ver­sa­tion going in detail. It should be against the law to imper­son­ate some­one with­out their per­mis­sion. It should be against the law to spread lies pur­pose­ful­ly to deceive peo­ple (I sup­port free­dom of speech but not pur­pose­ful lies). It should be against the law to pass an AI as a real per­son. These are obvi­ous. We don’t need a tele­vised dog and pony show. We need strict guide­lines pun­ish­able when crossed. God help us…

Was this all AI generated?

omg.. 9:48 what a lousy com­par­i­son.. Black­burn does­n’t know what she’s talkin about, if she wants to com­pare AI to file-shar­ing. Frankly, there was nev­er any­thing wrong with file-shar­ing to begin with! No, “artists” did­n’t lose any mon­ey, big cor­po­rate pub­lish­ers just wrong­ly assumed down­loads = lost­ed sales, when in real­i­ty file-shar­ing only end­ed up expand­ing their fan-base and ensur­ing they’d make even more mon­ey. The indus­try Could have entire­ly ignored file-shar­ing even exist­ed, built their own online dis­tri­b­u­tion, like they end­ed up doing any­way, and things would have turned out exact­ly the same as they are today, even if they nev­er cracked down on any of it! There is no com­par­i­son to AI art, if that’s what she’s imply­ing. You can­not cre­at­ed per­fect repli­cas of the stuff the AI was trained on, it will always have sig­nif­i­cant muta­tions. AI can also learn how to repli­cate sim­i­lar styles, with­out ever see­ing orig­i­nal artists, but instead just looka­like artists.

A lot of the dis­cus­sion is about short term risks: bias, harm­ful con­tent, mis­lead­ing infor­ma­tion. We’re miss­ing the most impor­tant con­ver­sa­tion that we should be hav­ing: exis­ten­tial risk — what hap­pens if Arti­fi­cial Gen­er­al Intel­li­gence is cre­at­ed, and under­goes improve­ment to become smarter than humans? Humans are the top species on earth because we can think and plan for the future, invent tech­nol­o­gy, etc. Tigers have sharp­er claws, but human expan­sion has made them almost go extinct. When AGI becomes smarter than humans, how to we ensure that it acts in our inter­ests instead of perus­ing some goal to the lim­it, like turn­ing every atom on the uni­verse into com­put­er sub­strate? Keep in mind, you are made out of atoms. These ques­tions form the field of AI Align­ment, and these con­ver­sa­tions need to hap­pen more broad­ly, even in the polit­i­cal sphere.

Go to about 6min30. The guy to his left has been over this hear­ing since he woke up this morning.

Короче смотрел фильмы ‑Терминатор!Готов бороться за человечество!)🙂

Don’t have an attempt to believe them.

This is ridicu­lous. These idiots are think­ing about the prob­lem of AI as if it’s some­thing that can be contained…like cryptography…it’s MATH. It’s already out. Cer­tain­ly, bet­ter hard­ware speeds things up, but it’s not like you need rare mate­ri­als (I.E.- Plu­to­ni­um) you need lots of DATA, which is emi­nent­ly acquirable.

what a bunch of boomers that prob­a­bly type with only two index fin­gers and prob­a­bly havent put one cus­tom com­put­er togeth­er. if youre scared, maybe learn how pro­gram­ming works and learn to write and read code

Bare­ly a minute in I’m afraid of los­ing my job.… At that point I lost all respect.… But yeah he has not even used it once anoth­er or use tech­nol­o­gy as a type­writer I would­n’t know how to use it any oth­er way
