      I would probably worry more about general AI if I believed in general intelligence in the first place.https://twitter.com/paulg/status/1373250065473679367 …

      I would probably worry more about general AI if I had any idea what its effects would be, but it's hard to worry about something unimaginable. Unimaginable and inevitable is a pretty weird combination.

      Indeed, @fchollet and I have had (and, I think, have) similar ideas about AGI. I still think that human civilization as a whole is the actual general intelligence, and that for a self-contained system to replicate all these capabilities is highly improbable.

      My read of this argument is: Chollet claims that we know intelligence works a certain way & therefore some things, such as explosions, aren’t possible. Yudkowsky claims we don’t know how intelligence works & therefore can’t be sure. It’s more modest & by default more believable.

      We don't know for sure where the universe comes from. Therefore it is more modest and by default more plausible to accept that the Great Spaghetti Monster may have created it.

      When I was 15 I used to debate creationists online to teach myself English. All of my interactions with proponents of intelligence explosion and the Singularity have been nearly identical to my past interactions with creationists. Same arguments, same rethorical style, ...

          Even same demographics and similar profile pictures. Sometimes I wonder if they aren't the same people.

          I cheerfully invite anybody to read Chollet's https://medium.com/@francois.chollet/the-impossibility-of-intelligence-explosion-5be4a9eda6ec … and my reply https://intelligence.org/2017/12/06/chollet/ … and judge for themselves.

          I mean, that's very much an argument ad hominem and we are not supposed to make those, but... yes, feels a bit like a cult.
