AIs are a long way away from even normal intelligence. Currently, they are parrots with dictionaries. They have no insight or real reflection on what they are doing. I am not sure I will see real artificial intelligence in my lifetime.
What people also regularly forget is how insanely inefficient AI is. We need exponential amounts of energy for linear increasement in “AI power” (idk what’s the correct term). So to gain twice the power we need 4x the amount of energy to achieve this. Since we are not anywhere near being close to “super intelligence” AI would hit its limit in how much energy we can provide before it even coming close.

I have a hard time coming up with any technology past the year 2000 that has improved my life in any way. I have my doubts.
It’s nice to always have a flashlight on your person.
Blue LEDs are recent and pretty cool.
I fucking hate blue leds. They cause migraines, and even when not - irritate the hell out of my eyes.
mRNA vaccine technology that made the two most effective COVID vaccines saving millions of lives was pretty great.
Also radically improved my cell phone reception.
SD cards?
Huge USB thumb drives?
I mean they’re convenient but not exactly life changing. 20 years ago you were reading about these batteries that last forever or that dental decay was a thing of the past and it seems like we have made little progress, or progress was made and then rescinded for profit.
Huge USB thumb drive
Just seeing that is making my life better. :)
You would sure be hard-pressed to think of any good thing involving Mark Zuckerberg, alright.
I’ve become a bit of a fan of memory foam.
I think that’s fairly old but maybe there’s some new advancements.
Probably still less than 2000 years old, though.
Playing games in VR everyday is good if you want an easy excuse to exercise and move your body more.
I get plenty of that at work but I suppose most people don’t. I feel like the Nintendo Wii got more people moving than VR though.
Torrents are pretty nice. I also enjoy the newer lines of flat-screens, particularly when I want to move a monitor without throwing out my back.
Isn’t it “any algorithm that would impress Dilbert’s Boss”? In the vein of “I don’t have to be faster than the bear… I just have to be faster than you”… /s
Sniffing his own farts again I see
Isn’t/wasn’t he a programmer? He can’t possibly believe what he is saying.
I know some really damn delusional programmers.
I once saw a supervisor use Google sheets to do a simple calculation. Could have opened the windows calculator, could have typed it into Google, could have done lots of things. But no, they created a new Google Sheet, performed one arithmetic equation, and then closed the browser.
I was so amused by this that I decided to program a 10-key calculator complete with memory recall in Google Sheets using Google Apps Script. I’ve made some wild Sheets over the years and have abused spreadsheets into things they’re not, but that’s my favorite, most useless Sheet ever. Whenever I show it to people, their first reaction is, “yeah, that’s a calculator, that’s a pretty simple tool.” But then when they realize that I wrote actual code to assign values to add then clear checkboxes and then store all these values, they look at me with genuine concern.
I know this isn’t the kind of delusional you’re talking about, but just wanted to share.
Zuck hasn’t touched code in decades. He’s far too busy cheating on his wife at the Jeff Bezos / Elon Musk Underaged Orgy Tent for that nonsense.
He was a psychology major that made a website with PHP. His background in CS is taking a few classes before dropping out.
At least use Wikipedia before talking nonsense.
Zuckerberg learned computer programming in his childhood. At about the age of eleven, he created “ZuckNet”, a program that allowed computers at the family home and his father’s dental office to communicate with each other.[10] During Zuckerberg’s high-school years, he worked to build a music player called the Synapse Media Player. The device used machine learning to learn the user’s listening habits, which was posted to Slashdot[11] and received a rating of 3 out of 5 from PC Magazine.[12]
okay. his background in CS remains a couple of classes before dropping out. i graduated from college around when he would have and this was every fucking CS major their freshman year. he talks about programming the same way every revolutionary code messiah who had coded some mildly impressive utilities does before they spend time studying the theory behind computation and learn what the real limitations of these things are. but VCs love the code messiahs. hence SVB going bankrupt. none of these dudes are as smart as they’ve convinced the rest of the world they are

Oh, so then he did already establish what superintelligence is.
(I miss original Pandora)
I’m deeply suspicious of anyone these days that writes a ‘manifesto’. They’re generally up to no good.
superintelligent ai’s that give great advice on the benefits of consuming glue, got it
That would by definition mean it’s not superintelligent.
Will AI finally replace CEOs?
The only job they can actually do as well as their human counterparts
It means he found another way to get richer with the excuse of “connecting” or “improving” society. Fucking idiot
GTFO of Meta services
Anyone remember about what year AD the Butlerian Jihad happened according to the books?
Sure. We can all trust Zuckerberg to help improve humanity. He has the credentials! Look how much we have improved in the last 15 years Facebook is a thing. Is not like Meta contributed to Genocide, election interference, the rise of conspiracy theorists, sold our data to the highest bidder etc etc /s
Ooh I know: it means “smart enough to make Eliezer Yudkowsky think it’s smarter than he is.”
That’s some big joke bond villain energy
