#AlphaEvolve : La última #IA #AI de #Google promete ser capaz de mejorarse a sí misma
Happy anniversary to New Order’s remix album, ‘Complete Music’ (an extended version album of their fabulous album, ‘Music Complete’). Released this week in 2016. #neworder #completemusic #musiccomplete #restless #tuttifrutti #singularity #peopleonthehighline #petersaville
In the middle of a small project I was doing with GPT a few weeks ago (failing to convert sheet music to MIDI), I had a good chat with it about ethics, the singularity, the stealing of the libraries and works of humanity, and right-wing bias training of AI models.
It was quite a good chat, so I decided to post it.
At the moment, I am quite optimistic about AI's future with humanity, but I am sure some billionaire owned corporation will come along and fuck that up somehow.

This is somewhat scary: AI capabilities have been doubling every 7 months for the past six years.
Human consciousness is a ‘controlled hallucination,’ scientist says— and AI can never achieve it https://www.popularmechanics.com/science/a64555175/conscious-ai-singularity
I wrote 4 short time travel stories deliberately breaking every author 'rule' I could think of yet still producing a readable experience. Years later I read about Ray Kurzweil's #singularity and realised my 'timebots' were remarkably similar to his concept. You can get this short book for $0.99 via https://books2read.com/tat

"Consciousness is the only reason life has value. It’s the only reason anything matters. Otherwise life would just be physical materials getting whipped about by natural forces without anyone feeling, sensing or experiencing any part of it. Suffering wouldn’t matter because it’s not being felt or experienced. Joy wouldn’t matter because it’s not being felt or experienced. There’d be no good reason not to torture someone, because there wouldn’t be any conscious experience of pain. There’d be no good reason to love anyone, because there wouldn’t be any conscious experience of love. Consciousness is the only reason life is worth living.
There is no basis on which to believe AI will ever be conscious. Consciousness isn’t some minor detail that science will easily work out once it gets around to it; it’s an all-encompassing phenomenon which has always been a complete mystery to all scientific fields. Science has no idea what consciousness is or why it happens, much less how to replicate it. It’s the single most important and fundamental aspect of every second of our waking experience of life, yet it remains a complete unknown to all of science. And this somehow gets left out of so much of the conversation about the future of artificial “intelligence”."
It's amazing to me that both the secular and evangelical cults within MAGA are apocalyptic in nature, with their own versions of "the rapture". For TESCREALists, it's the singularity. For Evangelicals, it's disappearing into the ether to "meet with Jesus"
Yuval Harari on the rising trend of techno-fascism driven by populism and artificial intelligence has been visible since the US presidential election in November
Nexus, which was published just a few months earlier, is a timely explainer of the potential consequences of AI on #democracy and totalitarianism. In the book, Harari does not just sound the alarm on #singularity—the hypothetical future point at which technology, particularly AI, moves beyond human control and advances irreversibly on its own—but also on #AI’s foreignness.

There's a non-zero chance that a benevolent superintelligence will terminate Elon Musk & Peter Thiel, for being the threat to humanity they are. So, at least we've got that going for us.

I tell ya!
I never guessed it.
I tell ya!
I never would have,
And I tell ya!

Spaceship!
Wouldn't be so bad.

How the early 20th century US Technocratic Movement (with its company Technocracy Inc.) prefigured much of today's Silicon Valley ideas of technological singularity and tech oligarchies, including the US annexation of Canada: my co-worker Eva Visser, tutor at Hogeschool Rotterdam, has been working on her PhD thesis on this topic for many years. It is now more relevant than ever. In this blog post she gives a preview of her historical research:

We are NOT on the track to #singularity because the AIs don't design better AIs
TT: "#KevinWeil, creator of #ChatGPT, confirms what we all feared: 'At the rate we're going, I think it will be sooner.
#AI will surpass #human #programmers by 2025'."
#KevinWeil, creador de #ChatGPT, confirma lo que todos temíamos: "Al ritmo que vamos, creo que será antes.
La #IA #AI superará a los #programadores #humanos en 2025 "
