When the cretin talks about how humans work just like statistical regurgitators, he's talking about socially programmed quasi-human urban cattle from the US.

            This is not what I asked for and there is nothing in it that indicates that the brain works

            For example, they claim that "modeling language necessitates modeling the world" which is not true. This is a non sequitur, these algorithms do not need an internal model of the world in order to output coherent text based on text based statistical inference. It is not a necessary implication like they are saying, it's actually quite embarrassing that they would write this.

            Also there is nothing here that has to do with neuroscience. Please actually link to neuroscientific journals and not slatercodex which is not impressive.

              So humans brains dont just predict, but they are given information and using their nervous system they give an output. They are a natural neural network. Why would an artificial neural net be limited to simple predictions? There is the input, the output, and the system that deals with the information or has models pre-built into it. Same as a human brain but with a different implementation.

              human beings have subjective experience and are sentient. input output systems are lookup tables. i dont care how complicated a lookup table becomes, it's not having an experience of the world.

              Even if the neural network isn't sentient, if it is complicated enough it can do what a human brain can do because human brains are literally just natural neural networks. So by your definition human brains are just very complicated look up tables. What makes the human brain so special that it cannot be considered as an input output system? Just because it is conscious doesn't mean there is some magical element that makes it create something out of nothing.

            What I find most interesting is the denial of the slow increase in intelligence that we have seen over the past decade.
            It seems peoe completely forgot about the original Watson from IBM 10 years ago and what it was capable of doing. I've said it in a few threads now; in spite of billions of times more compute being used and more advanced algorithms and larger training sets and longer training times, the most advanced AIs in the modern world are only a little over twice as smart as watson was 10 years ago.
            The last decade has served as undeniable evidence that intelligence grows INCREDIBLY slowly with increasing compute and that the singularity and such are not possible.

            Intelligence grows as a logarithm with increasing compute and super intelligence is not possible even in principle.

            Even with exponential increase in compute intelligence does not increase fast, AND there is no and will be no other hardware beyond silicon which is already at the limit
            We're at the end of computation and the next year or two is the final revolution in AI. There will never be any other improvement beyond that.
            You can deny this but it isn't going to change reality. Moores law is not a law of nature, the exponential increase in technology is not real and never has been (only the amount of transistors has increased in such a fashion and that's not going to continue) and even inspite of exponential increase in compute, intelligence does not increase exponentially regardless of algorithm or whatever.

            I don't understand why this is a hard concept for some of you.

We are not interested in your autistic mental masturbation toy models of "what precisely *adjusts nerd glasses* classifies as superintelligence *uses inhaler*" (you know, because the definitions of words is such an important and totally not a midwitted pursuit).

                You utter dumbass. A human≤ intelligence is not a fricking dumb virus. Exponential growth DOES NOT MATTER. Get it in your skull.

                Among chads, a "superintelligence" is defined as an actor that so vastly surpasses human intelligence that, comparatively, human intelligence is to it like e.g. rodent intelligence compares to human. Nothing more, nothing less.
                Your fever-dream like ramblings about the supposed exponential growth needed to achieve such is a completely invalid, irrelevant tangent. I ask you again: how is an actor with the combined brain power of the human race not a darwinstic threat to the human species?

                Machine-substratum intelligence is dangerous because the machine-based substratum (I use this formulation instead of just "AI" because you also have to consider human brain emulations/"uploads") precisely BECAUSE it scales linearly nearly arbitrarily horizontally. That's the entire crux. A machine intelligence can disassemble Mercury to create a trillion human-level intelligence subunits.

                Literally nothing you're saying is important because you're not understanding the main point.
                There is no such thing as a physically realized Turing machine that is more intelligent than the most intelligent humans. There does not exist any arrangement of atoms that allows for any physical system to surpass the upper bound of intelligence, and humans are already at the upper bound.
                You are fantasizing about science fiction possibilities. Drexlerian nanobots are not possible given the laws of physics and chemistry and thus there does not exist any motion of particles given any computational substrate that can "rearrange the atoms of mercury to become a bunch of intelligences". That task requires of level of intelligence and control over subatomic particles that IS NOT POSSIBLE in this universe, no matter what you try to do.

                I don't understand why this is hard for you guys to understand. Biological substrates are already the global maximum of possible arrangements of atoms for computers - they allow the most computation for the least amount of space and energy that's possible given the restrictions that chemistry gives as a boundary condition. Arbitrarily adding more brains does not help you solve problems that are too difficult.

                Computer are not increasing anymore and even with exponential increase that we've seen, intelligence has not increased exponentially.

                You're sitting here thinking something "the AI will he able to control atoms at the atomic level and rearrange them in order to improve its intelligence and predict all the motions of particles in its code and all the emergent properties of its code and recode itself and turn all atoms into computronium and convert more and more matter into its substrate and blah blah" this literally does not exist, it is not possible given any combination of atoms or any algorithm in the space of computable functions. Biology is the thing that does this, and it's not capable of what you're talking about.

                The fact that extremely simple programs outperform our brain on a variety of different computational tasks (which fall under the large umbrella of "problem-solving", which is what intelligence basically is) makes it exceedingly clear that you are wrong.

                What are you even talking about? I don't need atomic rearranging for the planetary disassemblement scenario to happen.
                The entire crux is literally just that software (that encodes an AI intelligence) can be near-cost free copied, and the substratum can be churned out in factories. If not on a metal and silicon substratum, then I don't care, just use carbon? I heard carbon can instantiate a human-level general intelligence, supposedly, hypothetically.

                Well, at least we now understand your issue. You have completely warped, off-kilter preconceptions about what we are actually saying. You are babbling about irrelevant shit like a malfunctioning chatbot.

                I'm talking about very clear things that are very easy to understand.

Even if we ignore all those computational tasks our brains are ill equipped for, why would you just assume that our brains are at the physical limit for computation power? How do you explain differences in intelligence in people? Is the "most intelligent" person right now the limit? Can there never be a "more intelligent" person than that person?

                You thinking that a human sitting down and consciously doing math is the measure of our brains processing shows that you do not understand what is actually going on here. In order to arise the intelligence of a human being, you need a machine to perform a HUGE amount of floating point operations, and it needs to do it in parallel, and it needs to do it within a small volume and low energy.

                I'm not saying that it's the "measure of our brains processing", what I'm saying is that our brain can do some things well because it evolved to do those things well, and it can't do other things well at all. The point is not to simulate human intelligence in all its biochemical detail, but to emulate its results, which is easy on some tasks and a little more difficult on others, but not inherently impossible.
                Also, how many of those "operations" the brain does is relevant for "intelligence"? All of them? Some of them? The truth is that nobody knows, but it's also totally irrelevant. Again, even if we were to just take that number at face value, there are tasks requiring just a fraction of the supposed "computational power" of the brain that the brain simply can't do, so the number, however you arrive at it, is meaningless.

                What is it that you think of SPECIFICALLY when you think of generally intelligent AI? Actually explain it specifically - explain the material it is built out of, how many operations it performs, what the structure of the system looks like as a physical system, what it's algorithms, how does it perform the "general intelligence algorithm" and how does that relate to it's hardware, etc.
                If you just say "it's a turing machine that's generally intelligent" then you're not actually saying anything. Its equivalent to me going "a ship that travels at the speed of light is a spaceship that can accelerate to the speed of light!" Ok, but explain what it's built out of and HOW it can accelerate to the speed of light.

                Explain what the system ACTUALLY IS, how the atoms can be organized into an arrangement where they are small, and fast, and controlled, and can perform the operations required. For example, in the paper "ultimate physical limits to computation" by Lloyd, he derives an upper bound with some quick napkin math, but even he understands that this upper bound is not the real upper bound for computers, anymore than the speed of light is a real upper bound for how fast a spaceship can move. The ACTUAL upper bound for spaceships is much lower than c, just like the ACTUAL upper bound for computers in this universe is lower than Lloyd's bound.

                You are asking the impossible, because if I (or anyone else) knew exactly what we needed to do to create such an AI, someone would have already done it. I agree that the term "generally intelligent AI", is kind of a meme, but in casual conversions people (at least those that don't have autism) generally know what is meant by it without having a hard definition. Trying to put it into words, an AI that can tackle a variety of tasks that we as humans consider "intelligent" (speech and image recognition, solving problems without fixed boundaries etc.), with a high amount of flexibility, would probably be "generally intelligent". I want to note here though that that's not even what I think is super relevant, as I consider AI outperforming humans on specific tasks (like image generation) more important than an AI that can perform "as well as humans" on a wide variety of tasks.
                You get hung up on the specifics of computation, when it's not really all that relevant to the discussion. The brain of my pet parrot has far less computational power than mine, yet it is better suited to "parrot tasks" than mine is. Our brain is good at "being a human brain", and in order to simulate it perfectly, you'd (probably, would love to be proven wrong) need far more computational power than the brain itself has, but that's again not the point. Do you think it's possible for an AI to generally outperform a non-human animal brain, for example? But non-human animal brains run on the same biochemical hardware that ours do, so why is it so hard to believe that it's just a scale, and not a hard barrier?

                Natural selection has selected for humans to be near the upper bound of intelligence. Humans have used this intelligence to do things. What the frick are you talking about? Humans have not designed computers that are anywhere near as intelligent as any animal, if that's what you're trying to say.

                I don't understand why this is a hard concept for some of you.

                remains unchallenged.

                You are coping and you have no real argument.

                The specifics of the computation are the only thing that is relevant, as without it you are not actually talking about anything real. You're just saying memes.

                The specifics of the computation as it relates to how the AI (or the human brain) work, yes, but that's not actually what was being talked about. The argument boils down to "the brain is optimal, because, well it just is", and then there are some imaginary numbers thrown around (10^n computations per second) that have no real relation to whether or not AI can in principle perform better on many tasks than human brains can. Extremely simple examples show that raw computational power (and that is with granting the previous number) has no real bearing on performance when you compare a computer to our brain. The notion that our brain (and specifically, our human brain for some reason) is at the limit of what is possible in terms of "intelligence" is wild and has exactly zero evidence to support it.

                That's not what the argument is.
                The argument is "exponentially increasing the amount of compute being used for an intelligence does not exponentially increase the intelligence of the system". This means that scaling more and more isn't going to do anything after some bound.
                The point of human brains was just to show that even with really good hardware intelligence doesn't increase in the manner you guys think about.

                But you are arguing with yourself there if that was your point. As stated multiple times, raw computational power does not equal intelligence. The existence of diminishing returns (let's just say I grant that without argument) does not mean that AI can't surpass humans, both on specific tasks and generally.

                There's also the fact that most humans can only hold 7 concept in their working memory, WM is highly correlated to IQ and computers have way less latency than biological brains, there's no way we are at the peak of what intelligence can look like in the universe

                People also seem to forget that we are measuring the capabilities of these algorithms with how well they perform on tasks that we humans excel at precisely because we have hardcoded systems for it. Obviously if you give a general AI the task of finding out if some dish tastes good for humans, it will be an enormously difficult task if it has to go down to the molecular level, whereas we can just directly taste it and our automatic biological response is the solution to the problem at hand. But that's not an issue with computational power, but software / how we approach certain problems, as some other anon in this thread pointed out.

                You just gave a perfect example of a hardware restriction and for some reason are calling it a software one.
                We have the HARDWARE to directly taste the food whereas any simulated software solution would require a universal quantum computer simulating the molecular dynamics of the system and this requires I think n^2 qubits to simulate, or it would require the ai to plug itself into a tounge and build its own taste processing hardware etc in order to run this function for an equal amount of matter and energy.
                The reason we can pick up electromagnetic radiation on the wavelength of visible light is because we only have the hardware to do that, we don't have physical sensors capable of doing that. This is a hardware problem.

                Software doesn't matter. Only hardware does and the last ten years has shown that even exponentially improving the hardwares computational ability doesn't improve intelligence exponentially

                My point was that it is stupid to make it a hardware problem, obviously you can't simulate what is happening in all its detail. But you don't need to do that, if you reformulate the problem, there are often far easier solutions that require a fraction of the computational power. Just as you don't need to know how a medicine actually works biochemically to know that it works etc. Instead of getting hung up on "muh computations", how about trying to find solutions that work?

                Yes, you DO NEED to do that. There is no minimal software description that violates the laws of conservation of information.
                The flavor and taste of chicken on your tongue requires those specific atoms and molecules arranged in that structure, that is the minimal description of that algorithm and there does not exist any combination of particles or software that can run that physical algorithm using less information.

                But I didn't ask for the specific taste of it, I asked whether it tastes good or not. Simply by knowing that one organism (me, for example) liked something, I can infer that other similar organisms (you, for example) would probably also like it. Will I be right 100%? No, but who cares? You don't need to be right with every single one of your predictions.
                I brought this up in the first place because of how moronic the notion is that you would need to actually simulate it when you are only interested in very specific information and not the details of the entire thing, but I wouldn't have thought that you'd actually think that.

                Yea, you're basically pretending that you can cut down on necessary information because you want to believe that the amount required is less than what is actually required in order to make the task seem simpler than it actually is. I see this happening a lot with AI believers.

                Prove that complexity is directed towards maximizing computing performance and not for redundancy

                Just the massive latency of the brain should make it clear that's not true

                Conversely, you are pretending that the only way to solve any task is by having complete information about the state of the universe (which, as we both know, is problematic in and of itself). You make it seem more complex than it necessarily is to make it seem impossible.

                I also looked through a few more of his papers, none of them seem to address this topic. I think you just made it up.

                No. What I'm saying is you are denying all actual evidence against what you believe and pretending that meme responses serve as actual arguments in favor of your position.

                ALL EVIDENCE is showing that intelligence is NOT DIVERGENT even with exponential increase in compute. You have no argument against this whatsoever. You are calling other people moronic when you don't even know what you yourself are talking about.

                Yes, it is. The amount of compute being used for AI has increased at a rate greater than Moores law and yet modern AI is only 2-3 times more intelligent than watson was 10 years ago.
                The logarithm explained earlier is correct. There is no paradigm after silicon which means there will be no further improvement in hardware either which would be needed to continue to small growth (we need exponentially improvement in hardware to get logarithmic improvement in intelligence and we aren't going to be able to get either).

                No, it isn't delusional. Look up what watson was capable of doing and how he would explain his thinking process and how he would answer questions etc. He was not hundreds or thousands or millions of times less intelligent, which he would need to be if intelligence increased linearly or greater with increasing compute. He was almost as intelligent as modern gpt3 or gpt4
                I'm defining intelligence by the ability to learn new information, explain your reasoning, relate concepts together, come up with new ideas, etc. Modern AI is smarter but it is NOT supremely more intelligent in spite of an exponential increase in compute being used. Intelligence VERY VERY slowly with increasing compute. AI can not have an intelligence explosion

                It required the supercomputer to train. It's 100% a hardware thing, there is no magic software solution

                But you are arguing with yourself there if that was your point. As stated multiple times, raw computational power does not equal intelligence. The existence of diminishing returns (let's just say I grant that without argument) does not mean that AI can't surpass humans, both on specific tasks and generally.

                Raw computational power is the one true bottleneck for everything. There is no magical function in the space of computable functions that can violate physics.

                Futurists are almost always wrong. If a futurist makes a prediction there's a 99% chance he's wrong (this includes kurzweil, that whole 86% accuracy hasnt been true for like 15 years). Besides that

                Again, based on what? Based on actual trends we'd need to convert more silicon than the mass of the biosphere to keep up with what we would need.

                This shit is all a fantasy dude. We will never build an ai that can compete with smart humans. We do not have the understanding of material physics needed to push computers far enough. And even if we did, we'd just end up building smart human cyborgs things and it wouldn't be the superintelligent AI that most singularity dudes think about.

                It's direct.
                Chemistry emerges from quantum mechanics, therefore by direct consequence as the emergent property of it it has greater complexity. It has all the information of QM along with all the information of the interactive emergent dynamics of it.
                Biology emerges from chemistry, and so it has all the complexity of chemistry as well as physics and all the emergent interactive complexity of it.
                There's no field beyond biology in terms of interactions of matter, so this ends the proof.

                It's also not controversial to say that molecular biology is the most complex. Literally everyone knows this.

                Working memory is important stuff for learning and also just general intelligence. It’s not too hard to see why working memory could be so important. Working memory boils down to ‘how much stuff you can think about at the same time’.Imagine a poor programmer who has suffered brain damage and has only enough working memory for 1 definition at a time. How could he write anything? To write a correct program, he needs to know simultaneously 2 things - what a variable, say, contains, and what is valid input for a program. But unfortunately, our programmer can know that the variable foo contains a string with the input, or he can know that the function processInput uses a string, but he can’t remember these 2 things simultaneously! He will deadlock forever, unsure either what to do with this foo, or unsure what exactly processInput was supposed to work on.

        Very unlikely. There is the reality of energy/resource efficiency and the difficulty/cost of implementing various methods of automation. The only things that will be automated are things that are fairly easy to implement automation. I.e. manufacturing that requires a fairly limited range of motion, some computer programs, etc. Anything that is too resource/energy intensive and too economically unfeasible to automate will not be automated.

    I think it's dealt a blow to commercial art like what marketing departments might use or what people might use in a video game etc. But for art outside of that, like art people might display in their house or more specialized or personal kind of art an artist would create for someone, I don't think has been affected much at all. That just my guess, but if I'm buying art to display in my house I want it to be created by a human. Maybe I'd have some AI at but to me having a human create the art it's like half of the meaning of the art, that it's a product of human creativity. AI art is more of a novelty

        if it's a painting and not a print then it should have paint on a canvas which might be somewhat of an obstacle for AI. Or if it's some kind of physical structure, like a sculpture, then it's probably unlikely to be AI

          Operative word here is "somewhat". Actually, the one dyke that still hasn't broken that still holds back the waters is simply that a paint-brush-simulating machine hasn't been constructed yet. But that requires no breakthroughs (or accumulation) in CS or programming like AI does -- literally just, as said, that someone has the interest of constructing it.

            it actually requires significant breakthroughs, because existing AI lacks any understanding of the strokes and techniques it emulates by essentially shuffling pixels to look like something from the training data (and you can bet there will be lawsuits regarding what the training data contains as being copyright infringement if AI art starts getting widespread commercial use - would be very ripe for class actions against anyone using AI that uses unlicensed/unauthorized training data)

            consequently, vector art is largely unthreatened by this AI art

            painting on a canvas is different than arranging a series of lights, please look at impressionist and post-impresssionist art. barely half a century and the techniques are vastly different even between artists in the same periods

        You can tell with most AI generated art. It's like comparing a naturally beautiful woman to one who's had 15 plastic surgeries to look good. The latter, no matter how good it looks, still has an element of fakeness attached to it.
        AI art is incredibly easy to detect for this reason.

      Pretty much. Real artists will be fine. No collector will pass on buying a Peter Doig original just because you can replicate his style with AI. It's illustrators that are fricked, but they were no artists to begin with. They were technicians, and if they were smart and honest with themselves they would just adapt to AI, since it's the brand new technique out there.

      Concept artists are still gonna be hired over some AI. AI is still pretty trashy at most things.

      The difference AI makes is that it's available to make sort of ok art for people who could never afford an artist anyway.
      Eventually it'll replace artists I guess, but then the aritsts job will basically be about getting the AI to do the art right... Probably not what they want to do, but it be what it be.

    Modern artists are parasites onto society. They contribute absolutely nothing of value in their worthless, pathetic lives. Every piece of art which could possibly have value has already been created, and in some cases it was created hundreds of years ago.

    Modern artists are just bottom feeders regurgitating the same tired, worn out shit all the time for a commercial profit. It's a profession which unironically needs to die. AI will certainly be the death of commercial artists making the generic shit you see in magazine ads and billboards. As to whether it'll put any non commercial artists out of business, well that's much less likely.

      Disagree.
      While any field over a century old has built up a stock of masterpieces that could fill a lifetime, fields that are new, or still technically developing, may not have enough. For example, video games - even the greatest arcade games from 20 or 30 years ago such as Pac-Man or _Space Invaders has a hard time competing against mediocre contemporary games. Something similar may be true of modern television programs (although presumably the development and sophistication is finished in still other modern formats like movies, which draw the most capable and most money).
      New formats need new art. Old formats are the only ones that probably have enough already.

    The uncreative (programmers and stem autists in the case of this board) will always want to undermine the creative, because their lack of creativity reminds them of their lesser status. Creatives have a link both to the divine and the mundane. Uncreatives have only a link to the mundane, like animals.

                1.Creativity=ability to create something relatively new.
                2.Neural networks combine sets of already existing things, seek their general patterns and create "new" things.
                3.Therefore it is harder for neural network to create something without big enough database (something really new, CREATIVE) and easier to create something with already existing analogues.

    The value of art comes from doing it. Handling your material in your head is a transformative process, putting it to paper also affects you if you work at it hard enough.
    The big secret is that the process itself is what makes artist good and puts them ahead of other artists. AI art is a ghetto and no good artists or artistic ecosystems will come from it.

    Art has always been fairly straightforward. It's just an expression of what you see in your mind's eye onto some medium.

    The fact that the craft part of it can be mastered in less than a lifetime is precisely why AI will replace the crafting aspect of art. This does not make the AI an artist. The artist is the one manifesting their ideas, directing the AI, changing colors on a whim, telling it to add greater detail, etc.

    In truth, no AI art has been truly created. Every piece was pulled together and chosen by a human, often with a lot of selected editing.

      Art is easy work, no matter what anyone tells you. What should enrage you is the fact that some artists through money laundering and other such dirty shit get to be billionaires whereas others, likely much more talented, work for peanuts.
      But all art is easy and unnecessary if we are being very honest about it. It makes life better, even might be one of the only things that makes it bearable, but even that doesn't mean its necessary. Everyone that chooses to be an artist is choosing the easy way out, no matter how much they tell you the opposite. They just want to have fun and be paid for it and believe they are extremely unique and irreplaceable. What is happening right now is a good wake up call.

    God fricking dammit why are artists being so moronic about this.
    Seriously. I write some basic programming courses for laypeople, made a bit of money from it. One of my students told me they're now using ChatGPT to learn and ask questions instead of bothering me. Do you think I'm freaking out about this? Of course not.
    I started using ChatGPT to write even more material even faster.
    If eventually ChatGPT could write the entire course on its own I'd use ChatGPT to write 10 courses a day.
    If eventually that was not profitable anymore I'd just look for something else to do. I seriously don't give a frick if AI 'tooks muh jarbs'. My ego is not hurt by learning something I'm doing for easy money can be automated.
    In all likelihood the point where AI actually does this all on its own is not even that close.

    Reminds me of Lee Se-dol quitting Go/Baduk since AI have destroyed humans at the game. Still, plenty people play it as a hobby and professionally like in chess. Yes, bots can easily beat humans now, but a lot of people play games also for the human aspect of it. It's a reason why so many people play board games. It's fun to interact with others.
    An optimistic approach to AI is that it basically takes over all menial tasks for humans and we just do what we want to do instead of going to jobs that we hate. Even if it's not true AI, perhaps it can be highly sophisticated machine learning algorithms that do the bulk of our day-to-day.

      What I find most interesting is the denial of the slow increase in intelligence that we have seen over the past decade.
      It seems peoe completely forgot about the original Watson from IBM 10 years ago and what it was capable of doing. I've said it in a few threads now; in spite of billions of times more compute being used and more advanced algorithms and larger training sets and longer training times, the most advanced AIs in the modern world are only a little over twice as smart as watson was 10 years ago.
      The last decade has served as undeniable evidence that intelligence grows INCREDIBLY slowly with increasing compute and that the singularity and such are not possible.

    No, because we have all the time and tools today to indulge in creative pursuits, they're not incentivized because they're not incentivized. The act of creating a piece of art is the biggest high for the artist. Most people just don't want to put in any work

    The AIs still create the art differently. If you've ever seen a timelapse of a picture being created by stable diffusion, the piece slowly condenses out of a colorful fog, and then appears all at once. Bob Ross, on the other hand, builds up each little piece sequentially until the work is complete.

    All professions will face this very same issue sooner rather than later. It'll probably suck the most for those suffering from it right now, since they'll lose their livelihoods, but soon everyone will be on the same boat, and we'll implement some basic income schemes.

    i would hang a large print of this on my wall, am i just a pleb with no taste? i like the colours and the way it makes me feel.

    wouldn't AI art just open the door for more artists? you can use these tools to create art quicker, and you can touch it up and sell it on. now instead of spending 15 hours on a painting or CG artwork, you can spend 15minutes talking to a client, generate some previews for them, agree on a price (say 50 dollars + shipping for the print) of which you take maybe 20 dollars profit and you can work at your leisure. sure it's volume work now as opposed to one art piece a week you have to see several a day, but people are pretty similar and if you are good at marketing and networking you can develop a style or popular pieces that sell over and over giving you passive income.

    i think people would pay for unique pieces, especially if they are added to a block chain to preserve value and you as an art creator promise to keep them exclusive to one copy. because of how AI works you can actually ensure that only one copy will ever be produced by just erasing the input, people would reverse engineer it but they will always get slight variations rather than the exact same thing.

    in a way portraiture will also likely make a comeback. AI enhanced selfies, put the customer in some fantastical setting of their taste and preference.

      It literally can't. It's a statistical model of the training set, anon. It doesn't have any subjective impressions of what it "sees". It doesn't have any aesthetic preferences. The only way to get it to make something "original" is to lower the likelihood threshold of the output, but then you get mostly garbage and the AI can't sift through it for you.

    Like the core idea of the iterative improving intelligence is that the machine will be intelligent and it will be able to use the intelligence to make itself more intelligent and then with that new level of intelligence it will become even more intelligent and that this will explode exponentially to the singularity.
    The literal idea is based on the thinkers of it not explaining what it is they're talking about.

    In reality, we have seen that even with exponential increases in compute and more data and more training etc. The intelligence of the machines does not increase exponentially or even linearly along with greater compute. We are seeing now that further improvements require levels of compute and intelligence that are greater than what is physically or computationally available.

    So it isn't that the AI is intelligent and then it becomes more intelligent etc. It's that the ai get smart and then further improvements are too difficult and it caps off.

      The signals that travel through your brain aren’t electrical, they’re electrochemical, and man, are they slow. Slow as molasses in zero G. Slow as a snail on quaaludes.

      Researchers have measured the speed of those signals in neurons. Different neurons transmit impulses at different speeds—the C fibers that conduct pain impulses are particularly slow—but fast neurons only schlep signals around at about 100 meters per second.

      The speed of light, just for comparison, is roughly 3,000,000 times faster. Or to put it another way, the signals in your brain move at somewhere in the neighborhood of 1/3,000,000th, or 0.0000033%, of the speed of light.

      Not only are neural signals slower than light, they’re slower than sound. They’re slower than slow subsonic bullets.

          Watson was not a publicity stunt, it was an AI that was nearly as intelligent as gpt.

          That source is only for the alexnet image classification system, not AI I'm general. In general, AI has had millions of times more compute, but is not millions of times more intelligent. Also, those results have stopped as well..

          For an exponential, the increase has to be at least equal to the input, if it isn't then it isn't an exponential. This hasn't happened.

          His point is that training is getting exponentially more expensive, I guess if gpt 5 does not achieve singularity a different approach to machine learning might be necessary

          Yea if we need to put in exponentially more compute to get diminishing returns then intelligence explosion isn't possible.
          I'm saying that this is not a matter of lack of algorithm or whatever, but that intelligence actually grows as a logarithm and thus agi is literally not possible, because the computers wr have aren't capable of performing the amount of operations that are needed to become generally intelligent.

              Not him but what I understand is that This is more important for deployment, as seen by current models being able to run on mainstream computers while the training was done on supercomputers but the algorithm improvements are slower than the increase cost of training, we are trying to imitate natural evolution by using power instead of time and seems like we might run out of resources soon
