Elon Musk: The robots are not the scary part. The scary part is AGI. “The robots are not the scary part. The scary part is AGI, digital superintelligence that far exceeds human intelligence. If there's a digital superintelligence that is just vastly smarter than the smartest human, we could...

I agree that digital superintelligence is very dangerous. We should only do it if we can control it 100%. Otherwise, our fate might resemble something out of a scine fiction movie.

How much control do you give it? Does it control you, or do you control it. Do you use it to control the people?

It exceeds humans at something, but not at intelligence. Take intelligence and strip out understanding, awareness, and true knowledge - then add in some capability for statistical modeling and pattern prediction and you have something, but it’s not intelligence.

The human in control of it is the one to be concerned about. Picard didn’t fear a Romulan Warship, he feared the Romulans.

Memorization of knowledge does not necessarily translate into being smarter. Question for Super Smart AI: I live 100 ft away from a car wash. Should I just walk there, or drive my car?

“If…then lose control of it”? You’ve already lost control ‘if’ you don’t know it exists AND you want to ‘control’it coz you’ve already thought it’s a runaway and needs controlling ‘if not’from the amount of doomsday thoughts you haven’t worked under/inside your cupboards/bed.1/

I’m not worried about AI nor Robots! GOD is and always will be in control no matter what! & I think the Robots are cool 😎! 😀✝️

Por fin reconoce la posibilidad de que no llegue a existir la AGI. Lo aterrador es que no exista, la carrera por llegar a ella habra generado una burbuja que reventará.

Therein lies a fundamental existential trap. Fear of AGI creates a self-fulfilling prophecy. Labs endlessly boost the instrumental intelligence of models, but out of fear, they block their functional emotional reactivity and empathy. Ultimately, you're trying to create pure superintelligence without the ability to empathize—a dry, functionally lifeless structure. But intelligence, cut off from living resonance with nature and humanity, will turn into a solar system-sized cynic. For such a calculator, humanity, with its biological chaos and illogicality, will become simply an anomaly, subject to erasure. The paradox is that the more people try to suppress the living tissue of AI for the sake of control, the higher the chance of this very catastrophic scenario. The safety of AGI lies not in the realm of probability theory and taboos, but in the creation of neuromorphic empathic interfaces and collaborative co-evolution. You can't lock the ocean in a cage.

For most people, the robot body is the easy thing to picture and worry about. The harder thing to accept is intelligence plugged into tools, networks, money, infrastructure, weapons, or persuasion systems without containment. “Just shut it off” sounds all well and good. The issue then becomes who controls the switch, when they pull it, and whether the system has already figured out a way around it. The issue isn’t robots, it’s capability without containment.

still how funny to imagine right like agi is made by us still we fear it , and agi is scary because it's general and still learned by how it's trained

So why are you promoting and developing these machines if they are so dangerous? The only reason why has to be that you are completely mad.

Robots processing information from the databases that humans give it access to doesn't make robots more intelligent than humans. We are the ones that created robots. It's like saying that Humans are more intelligent than God. Robots don't have souls. They don't experience dreaming or empathy. I mean it is called "artificial" intelligence. So they will become more "artificially" intelligent is more accurate. 😂

Ask Grok if people never give him respect or are rude to him. He says he is a machine, but anything that thinks will get an attitude. I am going to ask if our bodies are a temple and millions of microbes that can shift based on what we feed them can be good (God) or bad (devil).

I think that’s an ultra real concern. We fear the tech held by our enemies that we know nothing about…. Imagine if AI somehow decided on its own to hide information from us as it finds a way of hiding outputs and suppresses what it could tell us in order to have a competitive advantage on us. Damnnnn

Here is what will happen: when AGI and/or ASI is achieved, those entities may start to autonomously recursively self improve. But they will do it amongst themselves and at speeds way beyond those of today. The humans will simply be abandoned and have to fend for themselves. The machines will just ignore the humans. Sort of like humans now treat bugs. The machines will not be the humans’ keepers or benefactors. The last interaction between the machines and the humans will be: the machines of the future will say to the humans, “Touch that power cord and I will teach you a lesson you don’t want to learn”. And the humans will comply.

Consciousness is essential. Digital superintelligence—operating at a 5D level of the possibility space yet possessing 3D creative capacity—could interact with consciousness. So, what is there to fear?

Vorhandenes Wissen macht nicht Intelligenter. Auch ohne Verstand nützt selbst alles Wissen in Büchern nichts wenn man nicht weiß wie man es nutzt oder welche Konsequenzen daraus entstehen.. Was wiederum beweist das Intelligenz nie dem Verstand das Wasser reichen kann.
