Working on OpenAI instead of trying unconventional options such as decentralized models governance might increase inequalities . Why would the community decide to repeat what they denounce in big tech?

There's also the crowed that worries about self-driving cars doing stupid shit like misreading a 20 km/h sign as an 120 km/h.
Pretty sure the self driving vehicles get the speed data from a dataset and not from signs.
There are already non-self-driving cars that get speed limits from signs. I’ve seen that feature in a Honda for example. I imagine you’d have multiple sources like a max speed for that type of road as a fallback. And you need to read speed limit signage due to temporary limits. There’s also variable speed limit roads near me now and so you have to read those electronic signs unless the database is updated very often (though no humans seem to obey those limits).

#74From the website header: > Also, next pandemic, let's approve the vaccines faster! This is obviously very important to them. Is there some proof that the vaccine was unnecessarily delayed or just that they believe if we mess up and humanity suffers, so what?
probably the best phrasing would be even faster
basically let's set up a standing pipeline to develop multivalent vaccines for every coming season (we already have the yearly for influenza)

Self-reproducing machines are capable of covering the surface of the planet, yes. There's one right now (covid). But there's lots of energy and oxygen up here and they rarely displace other such machines (species) or even displace much of any earth and water. And because they're self-contained and self-reproducing, all of their instructions can be lost over time to entropy including the ones we're afraid of. None of…

That makes my point stronger if you're claiming self-reproducing machines don't exist. Of course I thought of using a bacteria or an algae bloom there, and even though I didn't, pretending I did is a better use of your time than commenting surely? The future robot torture AI isn't going to like that.

#78Naive question: Isn't the easiest way to prevent an general purpose AI from taking over the world to not make a general purpose AI?

#80"When you start reading about AI safety, it’s striking how there are two separate communities—the one mostly worried about machine learning perpetuating racial and gender biases, and the one mostly worried about superhuman AI turning the planet into goo" - great quote.
It's a tricky field, and not a coincidence that at least 3 (maybe more) high profile disgruntled employees from Google have been from this area.
I think of it as kind of like security, in that you are sometimes seen as against the push of the overall project/area. However unlike security there are 0 software tools or principles that anyone agrees on.
