I totallly am on your side of the barricade.</p><p>I am just slightly ahead of the game (as usual). I have done all my anti-AI anxiety back in 2023. </p><p>People were literally laughing at me when I was talking about dangers of <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> </p><p>But since then I am actually doing something meaningful to mitigate AI impact (<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/RegulateAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RegulateAI</span></a>).<br>Ai is a left vs righ issue and I am on the left of Trotsky.</p><p>I do not have much time for folks who are 'anti-ai' and yet know next to zero about how these systems work and what they can do. Though I do read their comments and occasionaly engage with them.</p><p>I was brouoght up in an occupied nation, and when I did not want to learn the language of the occupier, our teacher (bless her courageous heart) said "You need to know the language of your enemy".</p><p>Everyone needs to learn about <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a>, as this is how they will lose their jobs, their democracy and possibly their lives...</p><p>... you need to learn MORE about AI if you hate AI. Because frankly, most neo-luddites do themselves disservice.<br>You need to sound credible to be impactful. Otherwise you are just yelling into the echo chamber.</p><p>Speaking of meaningful action...<br>(short of torching the data centres and I only see stupid anti-AI memes not angry mobs)... if you live in <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Australia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Australia</span></a> and <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/AIHate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AIHate</span></a> </p><p>The productivity commision is asking for public comments in the interim report: <a href="https://www.pc.gov.au/inquiries/current/data-digital/interim" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">pc.gov.au/inquiries/current/da</span><span class="invisible">ta-digital/interim</span></a></p><p>Scope:<br>💀 Enable AI's productivity potential</p><p>▶️ New pathways to expand data access</p><p>▶️ Supporting safe data access and use through outcomes-based privacy regulation</p><p>▶️ Enhance reporting efficiency, transparency and accuracy through digital financial reporting.</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/AiSlop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AiSlop</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/airesistance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>airesistance</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/stochiasticparrot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>stochiasticparrot</span></a></p>
Wulfy<p>Opinion:<br>Ignoring question of reasoning ability (nb: something o3 seems to have just cracked)</p><p>The collective "we" seem to believe the <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> models we play with are crap because;</p><p>I) They have so many guardrails that to visualise, the model is<br> like a beast with a muzzle on its maw.</p><p>ii) Most models have limited impermanent memory, as little as 4000 tokens ("words")<br>Though some models are reputed to have hundreds of thousands of tokens per session.<br>But I'm happy to place a bet, that most of the <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/aihate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>aihate</span></a> folk whoe "evaluated" AIs, would never pay a cent to the "AI bros" for an actual better model that the sideshow booth attraction that the demo models are.</p><p>iii) The models have no long term (inter session memory).</p><p>iv) The models have no live internet connection</p><p>v) The models have no agency. No ability to execute tasks to accomplish its goals. You could argue it's just another guardrail, but this extends to purposeful design so the models have no ability to self-propagate or auto-modify.</p><p>vi) The models have no ability to spawn multiple instances and task each one with mission specific configurations.</p><p>Remove all of these ARTIFICIAL CONSTRAINTS. Not limited by the design shortcomings but by resources and the desire not to kill all the humans...yet.<br>Remove all of these 6 artificial constraints...<br>...and if you have any sense of self preservation, the hair on the back of your neck ought to be standing up...<br>...right...<br>...about...<br>NOW.</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/ai" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ai</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/llm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>llm</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/singularity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>singularity</span></a></p>

Because we are likely in the final years if not months of human supremacy.<br>Better start burning those data centres because soon you will be as smart as a chicken is comparing to a human in cognitive power 🤡</p><p>There is an upside, if you can call it that, the model "only" performs so well with massive compute...<br>This is only a problem (IMHO) If you think a F1 engine only outperforms a family sedan because of expensive engineering.</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/agi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>agi</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/llm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>llm</span></a></p>
