    im not sure this is exactly true like emphasizing the probabilistic sense of risk i think they may be right but im not convinced the risk takes the forms many of them like to emphasize, or that any of their solutions are likely to helphttps://twitter.com/VesselOfSpirit/status/1343634097889894400 …

    rationalists are right about ai risk and the long term future, and most everyone else is wrong, and this is way more importatn than the culture/subculture wars aspects of them that people talk about

        i'm unsure how it could be established that an ai sophisticated enough to displace humans is not, even in human moral terms, right to do so.

        If there is a risk, I don't think there's anything we can do about it. The show must go on.

        I think ultimately it comes down to non-identical niches. So long as we cannot be directly replaced by superior nonbiological life, the incentive is towards a symbiotic relationship.

        I’m not worried, technology is a precarious house of cards. If the singularity threatens humanity, I’ll have my mother interact with it. She can disable anything.

        Replying to @eigenrobot

        the only undercurrent among the "solutions" I'm aware of is simply an insistence that "this is a problem that is Important and that should be on our radar", followed by the general research program on figuring out how to align AI---is it the alignment work you're objecting to?

        are you objecting to the alignment work? I think even people working on alignment would agree it's nowhere even close to being "useful", but, y'know, if we knew what we were doing, it wouldn't be called research etc. etc.

        Replying to @eigenrobot

        imo each step taken is perfectly rational & well defended, argument stands up to logic as feasible potential scenario, hence we should weigh our response based on the downside risk vs probability vs cost of taking action etc problem is it assumes rest of the world stands still

        Replying to @pee_zombie @eigenrobot

        at each time step between subsequent steps in the argument there are many ways in which the entire set of tradeoffs/probabilities can change strongly suspect its emphasized due to being something nerds are uniquely well positioned to be able to take action on sans politicals
