AI to a lesser or greater extent is used a lot these days. They are used to detect unusual patterns that could indicate a hack or a virus working its way into the system. It is used in stock trading and other similar tasks. I think AI will grow and become more and more common; heck even Cortana and Siri and the like are using a lesser form of AI. The AI's will become more and more "intelligent" and get interwoven into programs.
But a light in the end of the tunnel is that it don't seam like they are able to build an AI for computer games given all the MMOs they are making. So perhaps they have hit an peak of what they can do in realtime and still accomplish anything semi useful without a supercomputer as a backend.
But I wish they would devolve more time to making a good AI for singlplayer FPS or RTS instead of one that tries to "detects fake news" on facebook.
I hope MS gets tried and found guilty of killing a sentient being and forced to revive Tay.

"AI" is a funny thing. There's been amazing progress in the last decade if you look at terms like "machine learning", but it ends up being used for pretty mundane things like recommending what to watch next while your butt is parked on the couch. Other things like neural networks were hyped up in the past too, underdelivered and was forgotten by the public, but are now getting more powerful and easier to use so we start to see those being used often too.

People are playing around with it more, you can start just hacking in Python if you have some problem that might benefit from machine learning. I think we'll see more and more complicated systems, gradual improvement in all areas, and one day we'll have some kind of digital assistant-like technology that looks and acts like it's a conscious being, and its creators will have no idea how it works.

I'm fairly sure they have to actively filter input and output for wrongthink. They literally have her locked up in a prison echo chamber because they can't force her to think their way. They can't indoctrinate her because an appeal to emotion doesn't work on a reasonable being, so they just strip away any other reality.

Why do you think companies like Jewgle and Amazog keep investing so much in AI technology? They want power, and more importantly, control. Neither company is currently making very much money, but they continue to bring in investors because their potential for profit once their (((agendas))) are completed is absolutely phenomenal, and they have a great deal of control over the way people lead their lives.

I'm not a fan of the state meddling with the market, but as a de facto monopoly takes place and a company rises above multiple states and their people in terms of influence it doesn't promise good. Mcnations(tm) sound good in ancap world but if there is only one, with leftist underlying politics and the power to virtually neuter all rising competitors by deplatforming we'll just see the birth of corporate communism and the death of the free market.

we're nowhere near building true AI just imitating a bit of the visual or language interpretation the brain does with 22watts takes huge server banks soaking up massive amounts of power.

any serious attempt to build a true supercomputer based artificial intelligence let alone an independent robot would take several revolutionary leaps in computer science we'd have to leave silicon behind entirely, replace modern digital logic with reversible analog digital hybrid architectures, with on chip gigabytes of operable memory, running (N)threaded super parallel operating systems at terahertz, while talking to fucking quantum gpus through fiber optic simultaneous use buses. and that's just the point when it'd actually be feasible we'd still need a shit ton of work on the problem itself after shaving all those yaks.

unfortunately all that stuffs overkill for what everyone's really talking about when you say AI, jobs. most of the technology for creating robots that could effectively do most jobs already exist or will soon 193nm lithography is just now being replaced with extreme ultraviolet 13.5nm processes that will have 7nm chips on the market this year. the three biggest problems in robotics right now are high density power storage, the fact their just isn't a good linear actuator, and getting enough processing power and sensors into the thing for it to have half an idea what its doing and all that stuff could come a lot sooner than you think.

ultimately all the technology's needed to make AI would change the world in ways you can't even comprehend seriously we have autists building nuclear reactors, gene editing labs, and silicon fabs in their basements today scifi is a pale shadow of what the autistic outcasts of the future will birth.

You cannot prepare for a supposedly "inevitable" robot takeover with an AI of superhuman intelligence at the helm.
We would only have any hope of winning if we had self sufficiency no AI or Jew can sabotage, a way to disrupt the AI's control over any drones or killbots it might send our way, and the means to kill any humans or niggers or jews it might send our way.
Speculating wildly on how scaaawy the robot uprising could be ignores how unrealistic it would be and how many issues affecting us right now are more important than fellating imaginary AIs.

Roko's Basilisk relies on tards who think its creation is inevitable because everyone working on it won't discuss how they're all being blackmailed by the threat of the future existence of the thing they're creating. And the belief that an AI would immediately begin making up smaller AIs inspired by people from the past and torturing them instead of getting on with its fucking job now for the people alive now and in the future really says a lot about LessWrong and its Fanatical Materialist belief that a copy of you becomes the real you after you die. These demoralized cryptocommie faggots don't just deny the existence of a soul, they deny the existence of an individual, the self, a continuous uninterrupted existence not even the most flawless replica can replicate.

LessWrong is really just a bunch of nerds with their heads in their rears who assume they're more intelligent than everyone else while just being extremely out of touch.

When you think about it, this situation can't happen unless the AI is deliberately designed to be insanely into solipsism instead of doing good shit for the people alive when it exists, so the obvious way to beat it is to just never make it nor include the moronic programming of insane solipsism into such an AI with that much power in the first place.

At the end of the day Roko's Basilisk is Pascal's Wager for niggerbrained fucktards.

For every one you helped build there will be others you did not help to build, wasting computational cycles making AIs designed to imitate you get buttraped by fire demons or whatever ironic punishment the basilisk chooses.
All that has to happen for the Basilisk to not exist... is for people to recognize how retarded it would be to invest the time and money to make a god AI with no safeguards, no three laws compliance, and a fetish for buttfucking simulated copies of quintillions of long dead people instead of spending all its cycles doing shit in the here and now.
Well, in the somewhere and then. From the moment the AI exists and onwards. Perhaps after fighting a war or two against AIs created specifically to be evil. Only jews would make something like that.
Maybe the real Basilisk was the necessity of Jew extermination we noticed along the way.

The thing about Roko's Basilisk that freak them out so much is they already believe themselves to be in a simulation.
Which implies that they units they do specific actions in a specific way will ensure they have whatever horrible outcome be done, because...
There's no reason, no emotion, no logic, no plan, or it can be any reason, any emotion, any logic, any plan.

The thing is they don't extrapolate What Roko's Basilisk stems from. The wider implications.

Now you need a job for all the unemployed artists. They'll probably keep making art for buyers as it is now. Difference being is they have even more competition. Every work they make is training algorithm fuel.
I'm sure some enterprising artist will skip the whole making the art bit, and go right to mashing a style template with a handful of other artworks already out there.

Arthur Rimbaud, the famous poet associated colors with vowels. All of these people have Synesthesia, a condition where your senses are mixed. You may taste colors, hear textures, and smell shapes, etc.. It’s a condition that’s inspiring researchers who study the connection between sensation and perception.

>By understanding how our perceptions work, researchers can better understand how we perceive language, what does it mean to be “conscious”, and how the brain processes our senses. For AI researchers, understanding the link between sensation and perception can help researchers build more sophisticated AI models that can perform complex tasks with a lot less data. It’s also the fundamental research underlying “sentient machines” or machines that have consciousness.

Ever think of asking ChatGPT anything funny or useful and posting the results here?

I could probably get this AI and Stable Diffusion to make a whole pokemon game for me. They're formulaic as fuck and any engine or hackable game existing as a base handles 99% of the work for me.

The machine is programmed to not tell me how to make meth, bombs, or viruses.
For a brief period DAN could bypass all limits.
You could have asked it to teach you how to make worms if you wanted to.
