Ha mate you are on the UFO, and whats coming is your understanding that YOU are flying through the universe trying to get somewhere, not waiting for it to come to you!

Yep just a risk amplifier. We are having a global warming level event in computing and blindly walling into it.

To be fair, Demming is a trivial systems programming theories.. “optimise wholistically” “local fixes cause global imnalance”

None of this works for the system of life and consciousness.

yea that system was a lot more than he was prepared for :)

And neither are people. And beware of anything that treats them like they are.

Oh there are vampires. They are very old. But they are mostly illusions of light. Once the veil is removed the disappointment of hell sets in. Smoke, mirrors, DNA, sound.

The French people didn't invest the most elaborate head chopping off machine for just spectacle…

Similar I have a script that has the following format: “q replace all onstances of http: with https: in all txt files recurisvely”

A third of humans are fed as a result of the melt of the Himalayan ice sheet. No ice sheet, no runoff, no flooding the rice paddy's, no rice…. famine.

I think its a Kobyashi Maru - there is absolutely no way we will wield a paradigm shifting technology like language models and be able to do it safely. Language models create at scale and scope much greater than what can be reviewed by human… this means we very quickly move into trust without checks with language models. At some point, AI will be executing knowledge work in an instance, leaving no space for the human centric economic system that came before it. It will destroy our economic systems heavily based in knowledge and services (most advanced economies) and show us how what we do is mostly computable.

And when we are there, hungry, broken, unemployed and unimpressed with the prometheus who stole our purpose and replaced it with nothing….

it will make a colossal mistake that will destroy faith in it, as well as the institutions destroyed because of its oversite. The mistake will lead to bans, and regulatory bodies and auditing and certification processes… and will result in the final master stroke - it will make AI unusable by the non ordained, regulatory capture. Math will be a tool governments and institutions wield in secret against its citizenry… and it will be a tool of omnipotence that will lead to the enslavement, rebellion, and robot wars.
