[Artificial Intelligence (AI) general discussion] jenneh:
Eliezer Yudkowsky and Connor Leahy (I like this video he did on this subject) are two prominent speakers on the dangers of AI, which they term as "the AI Alignment Problem". They have given many speeches over the years on YouTube that really opened my eyes to how "alignment" Requires the other fields one can study such as Economics, Philosophy, even Theology. For instance, is religion needed to keep humanity from becoming full blown hedonists in a world full of wonder? History has it's play as well, like literally Everything Needs to be took into consideration and talked out so we can understand what does it mean to actually be "good" or what are "good" values? What should the AI value? How do we teach the ai this in words or tokens? How to overcome bias? -Edit Wolfram explains neural networks in this video and how they interpret in a much more eloquent way than how I put it.

Meta intentionally released the LLAMA model, the 7b one, to get the world involved. The way I took it as Yann Lecun explained in this video, is Meta released it so the whole world could work on these sort of problems together. Yann also talks about how not too long ago, Google's Bard made a mistake in a live demo, and that mistake caused Google's stock shares to plummet 8 percent. So a lot of the big names have to be leery as to what they talk about, train, and release due to profit motivations. There is not much money being allocated toward the "alignment" problem. So for Meta to open source a model while it is still a young and arguably not so capable predictor model, to let the public play with it, discuss it, and attract Talent was a smart move.

I also think it is wise to involve politics, especially so early on, and it brings me Hope to see that the first ever AI talk at Senate Hearing was legitimately a Bipartisan effort, with everyone bringing interesting questions and not overly nor underly exaggerating claims. This was the most balanced discussion I ever seen at the hill. So I think it is needed. I think Everyone should pay attention and work together to imagine what these models could do because in reality no one knows. We have to make it first (it=aGi, we aren't there yet with "generalized" intelligence). Yann seems to think a decentralized, "rogue" llm will be undesirable in the future almost in a way that implied to me they have something else crazy brewing behind the scenes. He had vision to see decades ago the promise in this field, so I would be inclined to lean more towards his arguments. I think between Connor and Eliezer I would listen to Connor more, he's a little less extreme. Eliezer is polarizing. For now I stick in the middle of Eliezer's takes because his talks are super entertaining.

I can see the dangers you mentioned about propaganda bots, I can even imagine many more terrible things, and yes I am sure there will be plenty of that, but hopefully getting congress involved so early on will start to get them to think out ways to properly overcome these problems. Bad people are going to do these things regardless, unfortunately.

I forgot to say Math is extremely important too. This video Fine-Tune Language Models with LoRA! OobaBooga Walkthrough and Explanation. goes over how. This video How a Computer Broke a 50-Year Math Record shows how the AI is able to innovate even in mathematics.
