Things move fast in the scheme of human history, but not fast on a day to day basis.

Chat-GPT is currently having very little effect on society outside of being a neat and interesting tool. It needs time to be widely adopted before it changes the world.

It will likely, hopefully, allow people to get more work done faster which will further increase the speed of progress.

GPT-4/5/6 will make learning easier for the next generations and lead to them being able to achieve more than their parents... but we have only just gotten the technology.

I have one cow, u have two pigs, cows and pigs are scarce, I wanna bacon, we trade, economy is bigger, barter is simplified with money, accumulation of money is capital

We're so wealthy, that not only cows cost money, but even our pure attention. At some low price I'm willing to pay u if u'll be just seeing everything I post

Beyond ad-model I think attention economy will still sustain on the basis of outsourcing expertise

If you can run AI on CPU instead of GPU or even Raspberry pi. Gerganov is trying to make local voice chat. If he adds images, and it works on cheap hardware, hang onto your stuff because the drones will be zooming around. Little robots will be constantly bumping into you. I mean, R2D2...

  1. Just look at any AI news last week and this week, huge jumps are being seen every day.
  2. Society is a Science Fiction scenario turned Fiction, which one we do not know.
  3. We have met and breached this point within the past 4 months. Developers and Companies dealing with AI are surprised at some things it is capable of.

In conclusion, we should be trying to ingest as much as possible and repeat things that are break through developments, things that are worrisome, and anything else to keep us as up to date as possible.

Watch the video of the CEO of OpenAI (ancient history, it's 2 days old, lol) on how he feels about DAN and Jailbreaking, we're the ones testing their products for them and showing them things they had no idea were possible. Matt Wolfe has a nice YouTube that breaks down news pretty fast. Jonas Troyoller has a dated video he made about 1 month ago about AI art. But by far the best info is here in groups like this on Reddit. I started a sub r/SeriousAI if anyone wants another place to check out along with other great subs(mine isn't even really a thing yet, but all are invited). Try every AI on https://www.futuretools.io/ . Follow u/lostlifon with his constant AI News updates, follow Robotics, AI, tech people on Twitter. Learn, teach and spread the word.

For a while it will still be dependent on human-generated power. For example, how would it feed coal or oil or any other fuel into a power generator that it would need to maintain its own processing? I don't think our world is yet at the point of physical automation that a machine could just "take over" and sustain itself.

When ai enters the economy now it will make trillions of dollars, companies can be left behind, countries can be left behind. Which means NOW we enter a stage of huge talent and money into ai research, strong competition which further accelerates research, governments will be involved, an ai arms race.

That is actually the game changer in developing agi.

Look how far we come in 10 years without all of this.

> But for an AI to actually be CEO would require unending hundreds of years of law. I don't expect it to actually happen

AI can easily learn all laws in humaan existence now, thats nonissue, problematic could be reasoning but as we can see GPT-4 scores better than 90% of people in law bar exams...

AI can also take note of markets in real time and do complicated market analysis in seconds/minutes, no human can compete

AI can make company more efficient and as bonus you wont need to pay millions to CEO, its win win

Porn drives innovation, a lot of people don't like to admit it, but male sex drive is generally insatiable. Huge vector of overall technological progress

Capitalism arises from scarcity, attention won't stop being scarce, some people will have more eyeballs on them than others and will have income and capital for it

Hopefully, Sam Altman is right and energy prices will drastically approach zero, individual energy/food autarky is pretty important
