Dangers of superintelligence | Separating sci-fi from plausible speculation

Posted by admin
Just after filming this video, Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI published a blog post about the governance of superintelligence in which he, along with Greg Brockman and Ilya Sutskever, outline their thinking about how the world should prepare for a world with superintelligences. And just before filming Geoffrey Hinton quite his job at Google so that he could express more openly his concerns about the imminent arrival of an artificial general intelligence, an AGI that could soon get beyond our control if it became superintelligent. So, the basic idea is moving from sci-fi speculation into being a plausible scenario, but how powerful will they be and which of the concerns about superAI are reasonably founded? In this video I explore the ideas around superintelligence with Nick Bostrom’s 2014 book, Superintelligence, as one of our guides and Geoffrey Hinton's interviews as another, to try to unpick which aspects are plausible and which are more like speculative sci-fi. I explore what are the dangers, such as Eliezer Yudkowsky's notion of a rapid 'foom' take over of humanity, and also look briefly at the control problem and the alignment problem. At the end of the video I then make a suggestion for how we could maybe delay the arrival of superintelligence by withholding the ability of the algorithms to self-improve themselves, withholding what you could call, meta level agency. \u25ac\u25ac Chapters \u25ac\u25ac 00:00 - Questing for an Infinity Gauntlet 01:38 - Just human level AGI 02:27 - Intelligence explosion 04:10 - Sparks of AGI 04:55 - Geoffrey Hinton is concerned 06:14 - What are the dangers? 10:07 - Is ‘foom’ just sci-fi? 13:07 - Implausible capabilities 14:35 - Plausible reasons for concern 15:31 - What can we do? 16:44 - Control and alignment problems 18:32 - Currently no convincing solutions 19:16 - Delay intelligence explosion 19:56 - Regulating meta level agency \u25ac\u25ac Other videos about AI and Society \u25ac\u25ac AI wants your job * | Which jobs will AI automate? | Reports by OpenAI and Goldman Sachs https://youtu.be/mluIB_64INw How ChatGPT Works (a non technical explainer): https://youtu.be/hgpIOduCED0 \u25ac\u25ac References \u25ac\u25ac OpenAI's GPT-3 Language Model: A Technical Overview https://lambdalabs.com/blog/demystifying-gpt-3 \u25ac\u25ac Audio visual sources \u25ac\u25ac Stretch at DHL Automated Trailer Unloading https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgGH6Vk8nY8 Gen-1 The Next Step Forward for Generative AI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTqgWkHiN0k AlphaFold: The making of a scientific breakthrough https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gg7WjuFs8F4& Loki Arrives on Earth Scene - The Avengers (2012) Movie CLIP HD https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQKYN-yR2oM How Strong is Doctor Strange Without Time Stone? | SuperSuper https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NX8fa7Iopa0 Dr. Strange Opens The Eye of Agamotto Scene Doctor Strange (2016) IMAX Movie Clip HD 4K https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_EkEACM5qc Avengers: Age Of Ultron | Infinity Stones https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrUYfYVuGDM Avengers: Infinity War (2018) - "Snap Of Disintegration"| Movie Clip HD https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWhEgdh0X9c 'Godfather of AI' warns that AI may figure out how to **** people https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgGH6Vk8nY8 Additional video clips and music from Storyblocks: https://www.storyblocks.com/ Thumbnail and background image for title screens are original DALL·E 2 creations.
