What AI can do: enumerated

-


"Frankenstein was written during the first Industrial Revolution, a period of enormous changes that provoked confusion and anxiety for many. It asked searching questions about man's relationship with technology: are we creating a monster we cannot control, are we losing our humanity, our compassion, our ability to feel empathy and emotions?" 

This was written by Paolo Gallo, the Chief Human Resources officer at World Economic Forum. 

"Frankenstein relies on the notion that humans will inherently reject artificial intelligence as unnatural and bizarre. A great deal of that is owed to the particularly odd appearance of Frankenstein's monster... But what about when AI comes in a more attractive package, one that has real utility?"


Now here is the ever-expanding list: 

- playing checkers 

- natural language processing 

- be an intelligent personal assistant

- GANs (optimizing both a generator & discriminator)

- DALL-E (optimizing both an embedding prior model and its decoding). Adding an objective there and optimizing across multiple agents (e.g. imagine both optimizing a language model, and some consequence on the real world or a game)

- ability to recursively improve until technological singularity

- self-driving cars 

- efficient business processes 

- companionship 

- predicting earthquakes

- interpreting medical images and speech 

- generating jokes 

- generating mathematical theorems

- generating US patents 

- generating innovative designs for antennas 

- generating new paint colors

- generating new fragrances

- identify plant species better than any human

- write passable essays

- beat you at a game of Starcraft 2

- solve the 60-year-old ‘protein folding problem’

- diagnose some diseases

- play romantic matchmaker

- write solid computer code

- offer questionable legal advice

- calculate artillery firing tables for the US army (ENIAC)

- detecting data breaches

- provide product recommendations 

- automate marketing, takeover SWE roles

ArtificiaI General Intelligence Safety Fundamentals Notes

AGISF - Week 1 - Artificial General Intelligence Reinforcement Learning Foundation models : models trained on broad data that can be adapted to a wide range of downstream tasks. Much of foundation models are enabled by transfer learning and scale. In which scale required:  1. GPU throughput and memory capacity, both increased 10x over the last four years.  2. Transformer architecture  3. Availability of training data  Homogenization: all the defects of the foundation model are inherited by all the adapted models downstream.  Four Background Claims by MIRI, 2015 CE  This post aims to illustrate MIRI's mission objective.  1. Interactions between disparate modules is the general intelligence that we can not replicate in code, yet. MIRI suggests to take heed.  2. Given that the Church-Turing thesis hold, then computers can replicate the functional input/output behavior of brains as physical systems--- they might supercede soon.  3. Intellectual advantage will create incentive to

A year, introspectively summarized

               A year, introspectively summarized      A primal and gravitational feeling is the feeling of belonging--- though the whole sense of "purpose" is artificial, defined deliberately by people who want others to emulate them. Emulation stunts creativity, just as the proclivity to belong stunts agency. I am delighted by the platform that I am given to practice my agentic self, now and continuously onward.       There will be a time when t he basis of your understanding, you learn, was fabricated---even some of your strongest beliefs need reinterpretation, the very framework under which you operate proves inflexible and restrictive. Perhaps the best remediation strategy then is desensitization of the action-oriented part of your mind. You must compromise scaling for precision.       In January, I wrangled with partial differential equations and AI Safety fundamentals course with BlueDot. In February, I wrapped up two of my internships. In March, I explored much of Los

Vicissitude

Vicissitude Did the heavens hang higher to aggrandize your vicissitude? From the primal vines you serpentine ushering empires and visions sublime   If thunder be your heartbeat and determination then let lightning linger in your mind from deprivation unbounded by ecclesiastical measures, you drape your golden body over boundless wonders  The dreamers drown in idolization and ideals but sharper is the blade of guilt the thirst for ravishing power and the departure from righteousness your celestial eyes close and halt On the descent, since the fall the leathery wings enshroud your undying faith In your shadow woke Wicked Mephisto  down is the plunder into ecstacy  but who can share your burden of villainy?
