Humans are the bottleneck. #AI

The Great Intelligence Deficit
We have old ways, and humble expectations. Let that not sway us from the path that leads to abundant intelligence. What we suffer from is intelligence deficit, not excess intelligence. My position on the matter is that our civilization lacks sufficient intelligence,…

The Need for an Open Research License (2002)
This was an interesting inquiry. At least some of these concerns were met by Creative Commons licenses, but I feel that we still need new licenses!
Navigating Skepticism in a Polarised Age
Information Overload: How to Savor the Nuance In an era dominated by rapid information flows and entrenched partisan narratives, the term "conspiracy theory" has become a blunt instrument. It is wielded to shut down inquiry, discredit legitimate skepticism,…
it's just that there is no tech traffic here and this post drew attention. it's funny that the opinions about AI are so polarized.
We inhabit dystopia.
Is this network still boring and full of idiotic echo chambers and snitching?
Social media is a prison for our minds.
We must destroy this mind control system.
I support the current thing.
I'll be writing some new papers on these, so I would welcome any criticism, for instance would you like to explain why Kurzweil was wrong about 2029? Any citations I should see? Thank you. 😇
To remind, my 2030 prediction was concerned with the energy efficiency of computation vastly improving the accuracy of Moravec's predictions. However, Kurzweil made a more intuitive prediction already by early 2000s. I hadn't taken Kurzweil's idea into account but he predicted 2029.
I had predicted the "singularity" by 2035. I think after that, Kurzweil also pre-poned his singularity, but the 2029/2030 prediction for human-level AI was first made many years ago. I wonder why you object to that specific prediction then.
He may be wrong about the timelines, but eventually these predictions aren't wrong. He probably got them from AGI researchers. He isn't exactly making it up.

@brainking.bsky.social I'd like to ask Philip if there are good billionaires, i.e., unexploitative, unextractive, and if he would reason wealth does not necessarily turn people bad, or how to avoid that.
Social media is a prison for our minds. Jack, Mark, and others have betrayed mankind.

I despise recommender algorithms for social media. I believe we should build communities of people who take care about how much and what quality they post. 21C version of virtue friendship, but I can also argue it on computational and communication efficiency grounds.
The below is re bots blocking.
You are an anonymous account, what do you want to talk about?
Mastodon or Bluesky? Why?
We already passed 1.5C and 2C is baked in.
Short presentation (< 15mins) on just how vanishingly small are our remaining carbon budgets for 1.5 & 2°C - both globally & when downscaled to wealthy industrialised nations. In a handful of years our Paris 2°C commitment will go the way same way as has 1.5°C.
