Being terrified doesn’t serve much purpose at this point. We are going too fast. Have been for years. This is just the first clear indication. Braking is fatal, but some seem pretty hell-bent. Deceleration is complicated, and it seems highly unlikely that there would be sufficient consensus for true deceleration. Local deceleration is simply waiting for the acceleration occurring somewhere else to overcome your effor…

I disagree. ChatGPT is a clear turning point. We have not been going too fast before, at least not outside LLMs. Singularity is a belief system, it has very little to do with AI. edit: I also think if we would ever get to a point where AI gets close to a point of possibly getting out of control as you imply it would simply be banned in the US/Canada/EU/Australia. Furthermore Latin America and Africa could and would b…

An AI API marketplace is going to be amazing. But each API is going to need parameters that you can run gradient descent on to tune.

This needs to be the foundation

Am I the only one with an uneasy feeling about all these advancements? Are we going fast or is it just because of the buzz? I have a hard time separating the two. It’s very exiting and I want to keep being exited. I don’t want to become terrified.

Everyone can see the writing on the wall that they need to be a part owner of the production, because the worker will not be needed. So its a land grab in every direction right now for the thing that is going to co-opt the means of production.

what do the owners of production do when the 6 billion workers decide they don't like not being able to eat?

I wonder if the physical workers join especially for services. Perhaps not, since they may be needed.

We've been "moving too fast" since we figured out agriculture. It's fine. The world as you know it will change irreversibly; you'll long for the simplicity of youth; you will bemoan the state of the world we have left for our children... just like every generation before us did. It'll all be fine. Enjoy the ride, it's called life, and it's better than it ever has been.

the point is to survive a little longer so you don't wind up being the 2 billion that starved to death waiting for an AI-output tax to form universal basic income or the uprising to start.

bake cookies just like the nice old grandma does for the local teenage gangs. its a survival mechanism so that nobody messes with you.

I strongly suspect the first AGI will come sooner than expected on the back of a "glue" AI that can intelligently bond together a web of narrow AIs and utilities. I got access to the wolfram plugin for chatGPT, and it turned it from a math dummy to a math genius overnight. A small step for sure, but a hint of what's to come.

I agree, I suspect AGI is possible right now with a similar system only slightly more sophisticated than this one. The right "glue" for existing models, and plugins to existing data sources all coordinated in a system. GTP-4 would do the managing, and handling, and some simple template API and handler script would allow it to call instances of itself or other models, track recursion depth, and automatically remind GTP-4 to stay on track and always use the correct 'templates' for requests. It could also remind it to create a condensed summary of it's goals and state that gets repeated back automatically to act as long term memory, and increase the effective context window size (edit: this is single variable external memory).

I am afraid to explain this, because I have tried a preliminary version of it that I supervised step by step, and it seems to work. I think it is obvious enough that I won't have been the only one to think of it, so it would be safer to put the information out there so people can prepare.

I see a big disconnect on here between people saying GPT-4 can't do things like this and is just a "stochastic parrot" or "glorified autocomplete," and people posting logs and summaries of it solving unexpectedly hard problems outside of any conceivable training set. My theory is that this disconnect is due to three major factors: * People confusing GPT-4 and GPT-3, as both are called "chatGTP" and most people haven't actually used GPT-4 because it requires a paid subscription, and don't realize how much better it is * Most popular conceptual explanations about how these models work imply that these actually observed capabilities should be fundamentally impossible * Expectations from movies, etc. about what AGI will be like, e.g. that it will never get confused or make mistakes, or that it won't have major shortcomings in specific areas. In practice this doesn't seem to limit it because it recognizes and fixes its mistakes automatically when it sees feedback (e.g. in programming)

It also, in my pay opinion, needs a memory store.

I need to be able to save something to a variable and call back that exact variable. Right now, because it’s just pure text input of the whole conversation, it can forget or corrupt it’s “memory”.

Even something like writing a movie script doesn’t work if it constantly forgets characters names or settings or plot points.
