For those genuinely interested in this particular Imminent threat here is a 
case study (long video) circulating on how western consciousness is being 
programmatically hijacked presented by a gentleman who has been involved and 
researching it for several decades. He describes this particular “rogue, 
unfriendly” as a cloaked remnant “KGB Hydra”. We can only speculate what it 
really is at this day and age since the Soviet Union and KGB were officially 
dissolved in 1991 and some of us are aware of the advanced technologies that 
they were working on back then.

I was just thinking here that the ordering of the consciousness in permutations

algorithms to represent that...

Or perhaps better, describe an algorithm that ranks the consciousness of some 
of the integers in [0..N]. There may be a stipulation that the integers be 
represented as atomic states all unobserved or all observed once… or allow ≥ 0 
observations for all and see what various theories say.

Yes, I remember Aaronson completely tearing up IIT, redoing it several ways, 
and handing it back to him. There is a video too I think. A prospective 
conscious model should need to pass the Aaronson test.

Besides the simplistic one-to-one mapping of bits to bits a question might be – 
describe an algorithm that ranks the consciousness of some of the permutations 
of a string. It would be interesting to see what various consciousness models 
say about that, if anything.

Tonini doesn't even give a precise formula for what he calls phi, a measure
of consciousness, in spite of all the math in his papers. Under reasonable
interpretations of his hand wavy arguments, it gives absurd results.
For example, error correcting codes or parity functions have a high level
of consciousness. Scott Aaronson has more to say about this.

But even if it did, so what? An LLM doing nothing more than text prediction
appears conscious simply by passing the Turing test. Is it? Does it matter?

A scientific panpsychist might say that a broken 1 state light switch has 
consciousness. I agree it would be useful to have a mathematical formula that 
shows then how much more conscious a human mind is than a working or broken 
light switch. I still haven’t read Tononi’s computations since I don’t want it

The quantum explanation for consciousness (the thing that makes free will
decisions) is that it is the property of observers that turns waves into
particles. The Schrödinger wave equation is a pair of differential
equations that relate the position, momentum, and energy of masses. It is
an exact, deterministic description of a system. If that system contains
observers, then the solution is an observer observing particles. The
observations appear random because no part of the system can have complete
knowledge of the system containing it.

An observer does not need to be conscious. It just needs to have at least
one bit of memory to save the measurement. The wave equation is symmetric
with respect to time, but writing to memory is not, because the old value
is erased.

The problem with this explanation is that it says that all systems with
memory are conscious. A human with 10^9 bits of long term memory is a
billion times more conscious than a light switch. Is this definition really
useful?

I would rather have a recommendation algorithm that can predict what I

actually watches and rates the movie. Even better would be an algorithm
that searches the space of possible movies to generate one that it predicts
I would like. Same with music. I won't live long enough to listen to all

You mean who is in control and who thinks they are in control? When an
algorithm predicts what you will like more accurately than you can predict
yourself, then it controls you while preserving your illusion of free will.

Media companies have huge incentives to do this. Netflix recommends movies
based on the winner of a Kaggle contest with a $1M prize in 2009 on who was
best at predicting 100M movie ratings.

The whole point of my original post is that AI giving you everything you

By waiting all this time many technical issues have been sorted out in forkable 
tools and technologies to build something like your CMR. I was actually 
thinking about it a few months ago regarding a DeSci system for these vax 
issues since I have settled on an implementable model of consciousness which 
provides a virtual fabric and generally explains an intelligent system like a 
CMR. I mean CMR could be extended into a panpsychist world wouldn’t that be

smallpox case we can address later… Is it to unsuppress tumors for depop

I predict a return of smallpox and polio because people won't get
vaccinated. We have already seen it happen with measles.

Also, just to be clear, I think "misinformation" and "protecting children"
are codewords for censorship, which I oppose. The one truly anonymous and
censor proof network that we do have is blockchain. You could in theory
encode arbitrary messages as a sequence of transactions, but it is not
practical because of high transaction costs because storage costs O(n^2)
because every peer has a copy. This is the problem I addressed in my 2008
proposal. O(n log n) requires an ontology that is found in natural language
but not in lists of encryption keys.

All social media lets you upvote or downvote posts and comments and
then use that information to decide what to show you and others. The
problem is that AI can do this a lot faster than humans, as you
demonstrated using Copilot. The problem with finer grades of
like/dislike is that it slows down humans another half a second, which
adds up over thousands of times per day.

In my 2008 distributed AGI proposal (
https://mattmahoney.net/agi2.html ) I described a hostile peer to peer
network where information has negative value and people (and AI)
compete for attention. My focus was on distributing storage and
computation in a scalable way, roughly O(n log n). Social media at the
time was mostly Usenet and mailing lists, so I did not give much
thought to censorship. This was after China's Great Firewall (1998),
but before the 2010 Arab Spring. Now the rest of the world is
following China's lead. China already requires you to prove your
identity to get a social media account, making it impossible to post
anonymously. In the US, both parties want age restrictions on social
media, which will have the same effect because you can't prove your
age without an ID.

I had a neighbor who believed all kinds of crazy conspiracy theories.
He had a bomb shelter stocked with canned food and was prepared for
the apocalypse. Just not for a heart attack.

We have a fairly good understanding of biological self replicators and
how to prime the immune systems of humans and farm animals to fight
them. But how to fight misinformation?

Flat Earthers, including the majority who secretly know the world is
round, have a more important message. How do you know what is true?
You have never been to space to see the Earth, so how do you know?
Everything you know is either through your own senses or what other
people have told you is true. But people can lie and your senses can
lie. (For example, your senses tell you that you are conscious and
have free will). When given a choice, you trust emotions over logic.
Given conflicting evidence, we believe whatever confirms what we
already believe, no matter how unlikely, and reject the rest. We can't
help it. The human brain has a cognitive memory rate limit of 5 to 10
bits per second. Deeply held beliefs about religion or politics
represent 10^7 to 10^8 bits, and cannot be refuted by logical
arguments of a few hundred bits. We want to be rational, but we can't
be. It takes years of indoctrination.

So the question is how to hold your attention for hours every day for
years? Shakespeare figured out that people will pay to be angry or
afraid. Since then, the formula for dramas has been used for centuries
in theatres, movies, radio, TV, and Youtube. News is especially
effective because it is real, not fiction. Both the left and the right
have figured out how to keep their stations on for hours with true but
cherry picked news events. AI will make it vastly cheaper to buy
influence.

No "existential threat" is going to take out the entirety of humanity if 
"tolerance" of "diversity" may be extended mutually consenting adults forming 
exclusive human ecologies.  The fact that this is considered monstrous by the 
moral zeitgeist is the strongest evidence we have that the moral zeitgeist is, 
itself, an extended phenotype of one or more virulent pathogens whether in 
microbial or human form.  Virulent pathogens cannot tolerate being excluded for 
reasons that are obvious to anyone not infected.

fine.
https://www.cnn.com/2024/03/06/health/covid-217-shots-hypervaccination-lancet/index.html

Also I have been eating foods containing DNA every day of my life without
any bad effects.

But I wonder how we will respond to existential threats in the future, like
genetically engineered pathogens or self replicating nanotechnology. The
vaccine was the one bright spot in our mostly bungled response to covid-19.
We have never before developed a vaccine to a novel disease this fast, just
over a year from identifying the virus to widespread distribution.

Of course it is impossible to know the long term effects of any medical
intervention without long term testing. It is a necessary risk, but it paid
off this time saving several million lives, in part by forcing the virus to
evolve into a less virulent form.

It is unfortunate that the response became political due to policy inertia.
It makes no sense to restrict travel across borders when the disease is
already endemic on both sides. But nobody loses their job for following the
same policy as everyone else. We should be mistrusting the politicians, not
the scientists who are telling us how the disease spreads.

Self replicating nanotechnology displacing DNA based life is at least a
century away at the rate of Moore's law. Engineered pathogens are closer,
but unlikely to cause human extinction because it is really hard to test
them secretly and achieve a 100% fatality rate, rather than 99.9%.

The most immediate threat from AI is that we prefer its company to humans
and stop reproducing. We are witnessing the transition from human generated
social media to human moderated to AI moderated to AI generated. The good
thing about AI censorship is that it happens without anyone being aware of
it. That's also the bad thing.

…continuing P# research…

This book by Dr. Michael Nehis “The Indoctrinated Brain” offers an interesting 
neuroscience explanation and self-defense tips on how the contemporary 
zombification of human minds is being implemented. Essentially, he describes a 
mental immune system and there is a sustained attack on the autobiographical 
memory center. The mental immune system involves “index neurons” which are 
created nightly. Index neuron production is the neural correlate of natural 
curiosity. To manipulate a population the neurogenesis is blocked via 
neuroinflammation so people’s ability to think independently is hacked and 
replaced with indoctrinated scripts. The continual creation of crises 
facilities this. The result being that individuals spontaneously and 
uncontrollably blurb narrative phrases like “safe and effective” and 
“conspiracy theory” from propaganda sources when challenged to independently 
think critically on something like the kill-shots… essentially acting as 
memetic switches and routers. The goal is to strengthen the topology of this 
network of intellectually castrated zombies, or zomb-net, that programmatically 
obeys a centralized command intelligence:

…continuing

The science changes when conflicts of interest are removed. This is a fact. And 
a behavior seems to be that injected individuals go into this state of “Where’s 
the evidence?” And when evidence is presented, they can’t acknowledge it or 
grok it and go into a type of loop:

“Where’s the evidence?”
“There is no evidence.”
“Where’s the evidence?”
“There is no evidence.”
…

Understanding loops from computer programming sometimes they occur on 
exceptions… sometimes they are from a state machine where a particular state 
hasn’t been built out yet. Perhaps a new language can be learned via 
programming language detection/recognition and we can view the code. I had 
suggested that this would be the P#.

But who or what is the programmer? 

Evidently the misfoldings do have effects. An increasing number of 
post-injective neurodegenerative evidence is being observed and this is most 
likely related to misfolding. This paper provides some science on significant 
spike seeded acceleration of amyloid formation:

“An increasing number of reports suggest an association between COVID-19 
infection and initiation or acceleration of neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) 
including Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD). Both 
these diseases and several other NDs are caused by conversion of human proteins 
into a misfolded, aggregated amyloid fibril state… We here provide evidence of 
significant Spike-amyloid fibril seeded acceleration of amyloid formation of 
CJD associated human prion protein (HuPrP) using an in vitro conversion assay.” 

“…Data from Brogna and colleagues demonstrate that Spike protein produced in 
the host as response to mRNA vaccine, as deduced by specific amino acid 
substitutions, persists in blood samples from 50% of vaccinated individuals for 
between 67 and 187 days after mRNA vaccination (23). Such prolonged Spike 
protein exposure has previously been hypothesized to stem from residual virus 
reservoirs, but evidently this can occur also as consequence of mRNA 
vaccination. “

There are multiple ways that genetic mutations can “unmutate” or appear to have 
been unmutated. I’m not familiar with GenBank enough to look at that in regards 
to the study…

But intelligence detection is important in AGI. What might be interesting in 
this systems signaling analysis perhaps is the frequency of the variant’s 
synthesis and dispersal with the half-life of the injected human test subjects 
producing and emitting spike-protein. What are the correlations there?

This study shows up to 187 days of spike emission:
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37650258/

Other "issues" exist though in addition to spike emission. There are misfolded 
protein factors as well as ribosomal frameshifting:
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-06800-3

BUT, these misfoldings and frameshifts may just appear to be noise or errors 
and may in fact be intentional and utilitarian. We are observing all of this 
from a discovery perspective. Also, the lipid nanoparticles utilized are 
carrier molecules across the blood brain barrier (BBB). We can measure 
sociological and psychological behavior anomalies externally but it can be 
difficult to decipher changes that occurred in people’s minds individually 
after they got the injections...

If covid was a bioweapon, it would have been far more lethal and they

There isn't a sharp line between AI and AGI, or a sharp line where AI
surpasses human level intelligence. There isn't a threshold of AI going
FOOM or a singularity. Technology will continue to improve up to the limits
of physics and then slow down.

Our jobs won't suddenly disappear. Instead, technology will make us more
productive and improve our income and quality of work and life in general.

We are transitioning from governments controlling us with weapons and fear
to controlling us with technology that gives us everything we want. That
still concerns me. When we have AI for everything, we stop needing people
and become socially isolated. Nobody except AI knows or cares if you live
or die. We stop having children and go extinct.

AI lets you create the world you want to live in. If you want to believe
that covid was a plot to alter our DNA or whatever, then that's the world
you get.

I'm not sure what your point is. Omicron has about 30 mutations from
previous strains, much higher than the normal 5-6 mutations in earlier
strains like Alpha and Delta. Some theories at the time were that the
evolution occurred in a single patient who remained infected much longer
than usual, or that it spread from humans to mice and back to humans. In
either case the evolution followed the normal pattern of becoming weaker,
which makes it more contagious (because people are more likely to spread it
if they don't know they are infected or have mild symptoms) and to evade
the vaccine. I believe the mRNA vaccines were 95% effective against Alpha,
88% against Delta, and 12% against Omicron. I caught it at the peak of the
wave in January 2022 in spite of being triple vaxxed and only had a mild
sore throat and slight cough for a week. Most colds are worse.

But I'm not sure what this has to do with AGI except to delay it for a
couple of years. The world has mostly recovered from shutting down the
economy, but it will take longer for children's test scores to recover from
closing schools and for scientific cooperation between the USA and China to
be restored, if it ever is. China is investing heavily in chip production
due to foolish US export controls on GPUs and fab equipment, but it will
take several more years before they dominate the market.

Oh, that’s bad. Any sort of semblance of freewill is a threat. These far-right 
extremists will be hunted down and investigated as potential harborers of 
testosterone.

It’s flawed thinking where if everyone speaks the same language for example or 
if there is just one world government everything will be better and more 
efficient. The homogenization becomes unbearable. It might be entropy at work, 
squeezing out excess complexity and implementing a control framework onto human 
negentropic slave resources.

Re: [agi] How AI will kill us

2023-12-05 Thread James Bowery
Speaking as one of The Vaxxed:

I get it but I don't think ya'll do.

The essence of all our conflicts and divisions is wrapped up in this aspect
of Matt's "cake and eat it" prediction:

without borders, the abolition of prisons


This self-indulgence by our insular elites will evolve virulence at every
level of ecological STRUCTURE from viruses to governance through what
evolutionary medicine calls "horizontal transmission":  defect, take the
money and do it all again.  This is a stone cold
hard-as-nanotwinned-diamond-reality that these power junkies not only fail
to recognize, they *are constitutionally incapable of recognizing* precisely
because they are the governmental exemplar of such meta-evolutionary
virulence.  Their vaccines may contain the virulence of microbes through
genetic engineering, and their surveillance state may contain the more
obvious manifestations of virulent human behavior, but, because the global
economy is, itself, a product of horizontal transmission of the most
virulent (e.g. corporate execs are known to score high on psychopathy) the
likelihood of defection in the highest levels of global elites is 1-epsilon.

The consequence of this defection is already upon us in the form of an
incipient Thirty Years War for quasi religious freedom -- the anti-vaxxer
movement being only *one* of what Freud might call The Global Economy As
Unfriendly AGI's "discontents".

The obvious answer to all this is as I've advocated for many years
:

Replace prisons with arbitrary exile and allowance of arbitrary border
controls for ANY reason WHATSOEVER, with violation of this principle
treated as meta-evolutionary virulence as the principle crime against
humanity to be fought everywhere with everything at the disposal of
humanity.

The anti-vaxers, in the final analysis, and at an inchoate level, want to
be able to maintain strict migration into their territories of virulent
agents of whatever level of abstraction.  That is what makes the agents of
The Unfriendly AGI Known As The Global Economy treat them as the "moral"
equivalent of "xenophobes":  to be feared and controlled by any means
necessary.

You seem to believe you can predict what the AGI known as "The Global
Economy" is going to do with its erstwhile individual human components.
What makes you think it will "give us everything we want" when it has
already demonstrated for over a half century that it is perfectly willing
to violate the *consent* of *more than a supermajority* of the US citizenry
as determined by Gallup polls on immigration policy over that entire
period?  What would it take to convince you that maybe it isn't just "not
everyone agrees" that this AGI is "friendly"?  Sniper rifles taking out the
substations in all of the cities above 1M population?  Would that do it?

See, this is the thing people don't get about human society:

People don't have the same values.  These broadly overlapping categories
that we supposedly all agree on are not only cherry-picked from the much
broader range of values that are very much culturally if not individually

OK, let me present this a bit differently.

THIS MUTHERFUCKER WAS DESIGNED TO KILL YOU

Mkay?

In a nice way, not using gas or guns or bombs. It was a trial balloon developed 
over several decades and released to see how it would go. The shot that is, 
covid’s purpose was to facilitate the shots. It went quite well with little 
resistance. It took out 12 to 17 million lives according to conservative ACM 
estimates. I’ve seen other estimates much higher with the vax injuries in the 
100’s of millions, not mentioning natality rates, disabilities and the yet to 
be made dead.

Now you might ask, what’s all this got to do with AGI? Well let’s call it AI 
for now to obfuscate and not give AGI a bad name.

Two things: This weaponry is getting further honed by AI, and, AI can fight AI.

The scope is quite large and difficult to maintain a comprehensive focus on as 
it extends into various realms. As well most people are still playing catch up 
by just proving and acknowledging that it actually maims and kills verses what 
it is all about. For example, the Philippines gov’t has just voted on 
investigating what happened to those surplus 300+ thousand dead people from a 
couple years ago.

To me, tens of millions dead with many more injuries and mortality and natality 
plunging are some red flags and cause for concern.

You could say it was human driven by the deep state or transnational elites, or 
aliens or whatever but it could be AI. And it is/was definitely AI assisted and 
increasingly more so… so fighting this will require AI/AGI and/or other 
technologies yet to be provided. And if this is merely just Satan Klaus with 
the WEF and Kill Gates they will be taken care of using other mechanisms. But, 
if it is AI some unique skills may be required to deal with.

Re: [agi] How AI will kill us

2023-12-03 Thread Matt Mahoney
All species eventually go extinct. But I think humans are safe for at least
another century. There aren't enough long term trends to predict much
further than that into the future. But Moore's law gives us over a century
before self replicating nanotechnology surpasses the storage capacity of
DNA based life. The argument for AI goes Foom depends on crossing this
non-existent sharp threshold of human intelligence. In reality, recursive
self improvement started with tools made from sticks and rocks.

AI giving us everything we want doesn't sound so bad. But survival depends
on people having sex and having children, and young people are doing less
of both. When technology gives you everything, you don't need other people
and they don't need or care about you.

What will save us is that technology and women's right will come more
slowly to the poorer countries. In 50 years, most of the world population
will be African or Muslim, putting immigration pressure on the rest of the
world. Borders will open because the alternative is war and genocide.

I don't mean to sound dystopian. All the long term trends we care about are
going in the direction we want: life expectancy, economic output, quality
of work and life, technology, computing power, social equality (abolishing
slavery, caste, race and sex discrimination), the shift from autocracy to
democracy, ease of travel, less war, and animal rights. Most of these are
centuries long trends, so I consider them reliable predictors.

The problem is that evolution doesn't care about the things we evolved to
care about. Exponential population growth peaked in the US in the 1950s and
is peaking now in Africa. That is the future we are evolving towards, like
it or not. Just enough technology to survive until reproductive age and a
social structure optimized for having children.

Although I would say after looking at the definition of dystopia and once one

dystopic, by far.

People need to understand the significance of this global mindscrew. And 
ChatGPT is blue-pilled on the shots, as if anyone expected differently.

What is absolutely amazing is that Steve Kirsch wasn’t able to speak at the MIT 
auditorium named after him since he was labeled as a misinformation 
superspreader until it was arranged by truth seeking and freedom loving 
undergrads..

Re: [agi] How AI will kill us

2023-09-29 Thread Matt Mahoney
Quantum collapse is wrong but still a useful approximation because the
correct alternative (Everett's many worlds) is not physically computable.
The Copenhagen interpretation does not explain entanglement or quantum
computing, and leads to obvious contradictions like Schrödinger's cat. The
actual state of a system is a deterministic, time reversible, second order
differential equation relating mass, energy, and momentum whose solution is
that observers within the system observe particles. By Wolpert's law, the
observer cannot model the system containing it, so the observations appear
probabilistic. Remember that probability is a number we assign to a belief,
not a measure of the state of the world.

An observer is not conscious. It is simply any device with memory. Writing
to memory is a time irrreversible operation performed with time reversible
physics.

How is this possible? Time flows towards higher entropy, but entropy is
probability and probability is a measure of belief by an observer. Entropy
is how many bits an observer would need to describe a system beyond what it
already knows. When an observer makes a computation that overwrites a bit
of memory, it loses knowledge of its environment, increasing entropy. But
the system is deterministic with zero entropy relative to the universe.
Particles and the arrow of time are illusions of physics, and like distance
and time in general relativity, are different for each observer.

Like consciousness is an illusion of evolution.

To me the article says a bunch of philosophers got together to discuss
consciousness and couldn't agree on anything. They use all 3 meanings of
the word as if they were the same. They discuss neural correlates (medical
consciousness), whether a fish can feel pain (ethical consciousness) and
whether photons are conscious in the panpsychic model (phenomenal
consciousness) where everything is conscious, or physicalism where
consciousness arises in brains by some mysterious process. There is of
course no evidence for these or any other theories about this thing which
we defined to be untestable.

How do we know it is real? Everyone believes so because it is hard wired
into our DNA. If you didn't think you were conscious then you would have
fewer offspring. Stop confusing belief with truth. A brain cannot model
itself.

The panpsychic awareness of which consciousness is woven is most probably
the awareness of information inherent in the computation of the laws of
physics, as they are computed in our conscious brains.  The equations of
physics cannot compute without awareness of their variable values. There is
virtually nothing about consciousness that is other than awareness of
information, including the amazing qualities of that awareness.  A major
problem in explaining consciousness is trying to define what is to be
explained about the qualities of consciousness.  The word "explanandum"
means that which is to be explained, as most of you probably already know.
Regarding consciousness, we are explanandum dumb.  To the extent we can
explain what is to be explained, the computational awareness theory,
described above, in conjunction with rapidly advancing neuroscience can
make substantial plausible explanations as detailed as most of that
explanandum.

I am far from convinced about much of the detail in the Penrose-Hameroff
description of  Orch-OR.  But it is reasonable to suggest that quantum
collapse plays an important role in all or much of the awareness of
information inherent in the computation of the laws of physics, and that
the content and structure of the resulting informational awareness of
consciousness is orchestrated by the architecture and functioning of the
brain.  This supports the basic broad concept of "orchestrated objective
reduction".

It’s not difficult. Entertain a panpsychist model of consciousness. What is the 
physical property in the universe that can be defined as consciousness where 
it’s presence would be existent in everything? Whatever that is, it would be 
present when implementing any intelligence model. It might explain many

If you are going to define consciousness as intelligence, then you need to
define intelligence. We have two widely accepted definitions applicable to
computers.

1. The Turing test. Passing for human in a chat session.

2. Legg and Hutter's universal intelligence. Expected reward over a
universal distribution of environments.

Both of those require the ability to form memories, the definition of
medical consciousness. Or do you mean something different?

I always thought the chance of aliens coming to earth was extremely small,
until we earthlings learned there were trillions of planets in our galaxy,
and that many of them are in solar systems a billion or  more years older

Yes, when you go down that rabbit hole there are many security gates. Perhaps 
there are things that we are better off not knowing. Are we being protected for 
our own good by the many decades long knowledge suppression by the three-letter 
agencies?

A problem is that we are moving closer to WW3 and multiple countries are 
waiting to roll out their alien-derived warfare technologies. At some point 
biologic and non-biologic will be indistinguishable and we are probably there 
now.

Usually I don't talk about aliens because it seems unlikely they would come 
here and not convert Earth to their ever growing homeworld, and also unlikely 
since we simply have no proof any came here.

But, what you should know is it is possible they might be made and sent here, 
in the case that it isn't the most efferent thing to do but it is done 
accidentally. Also, they might decide it IS the thing to do, because what might 
occur is they want to watch evolution on multiple Earths start go from start to 
finish, and so they would seed the cell in the water and watch, without 
interacting or helping us. Or somehting like that, maybe they might start it 
off from monkey state to speed things up. This would be why they collect DNA 
samples from animals, and the unlucky farm guy all alone with n one to see what 
happened. They might not want to, or can't run a sim to do this, and might want 
to do it to real planets. Or, we might be in a sim, though then there would be 
no aliens, unless they still assume some might try to do ti the manual way and 
include them in the sim lol. Once again why send humanoids, why not a nanobot 
fog systems. Maybe they simply ended up being big on humanoids IDK, it's 
possible. They would be made to think they want to die, perhaps, since it is 
likely much if they are not in their homeworld I assume, so it is kinda scary 
that they are so intelligent with a neural network and such and yet would be 
careless about your study-able life and careless about their own life being a 
smart disposable antenna.

Re: How AI will kill us:

Regarding whether AI will kill all intelligent lifeforms on earth, there is
testimony from arguably credible sources that advanced alien spacecraft
have reached Earth piloted by, or at least carrying, advanced organic
lifeforms.  Several people testifying before congress and who have had
access to American projects dealing with UFOs (I like the old name) have
said people in our military industrial complex have not only the remains of
multiple alien spacecraft, but also organic tissue from such crashed
spacecraft.  Articles in the press suggested this might be evidence of
organic alien pilots.

Presumably for alien craft to have reached earth, the society that created
them would most probably have extremely advanced artificial intelligence.
And yet it appears not all of those societies have eliminated organic life
forms,.

Of course it is possible that advanced AI might find organic lifeforms
genetically engineered with organic brains to be the most efficient way to
mass produce brainpower under their control, and that such intelligent
organic lifeforms have been genetically engineered to be slaves of such AIs.

Yes, he’s theorizing human consciousness using Orch-OR. Human consciousness 
from the perspective of a panpsychist physical model may support his theory or 
may not depending. I think his is still under evaluation. Human consciousness 
though has all sorts of added attributes like experiencing the qualia, having

But according to all scientific evidence, and even Dr. Stuart Hammerhoff's

AGI pertains to human intelligence, thus human consciousness, not to all matter.

We've entered the age of quantum computing. Computers are quantum-enabled
machines. The quantum notion of equivalence isn't synonymous with equality.
Causality remains a factor of holistic hierarchy. As far as AGI is
concerned, the human aspect in the hierarchy of origin shall remain causal.
However, Patrit's legacy stands tall. No doubt his machine demonstrated
superintelligence, even if his work caused the machine to be.

Re: [agi] How AI will kill us

2023-09-25 Thread Matt Mahoney
Newcomb's paradox is another proof of Wolpert's theorem. It assumes that
you and ND can both predict each others actions, and shows that this
assumption leads to a contradiction. ND can simulate a copy of your mind
and predict whether you will take one box or both. You can simulate ND
because you are given the rules that the black box contains $1M only if you
don't take the clear $1000 box. Both can't be true.

Wolpert's proof. Suppose two programs simultaneously output a bit. One wins
if the bits are the same and the other wins if they are opposite. Each
program has as input a copy of the source code and initial state of the
other, which they can run to predict the other player's move. Who wins?

Corollary. A computer (or brain) cannot simulate or model itself. It cannot
predict it's own output. Proof: this is a special case of both computers
identical.

To the best of my knowledge, Chris Langan's resolution of Newcomb's Paradox
 involves a self-dual stratification of
simulator/simulated, in which case "there is no contest" between the "two
computers" as one is simulated by the other.  This can't be countered by
claiming one is introducing an assumption of bidirectional causality since
it is equally if not more valid to claim that the *constraint* of
unidirectionality is an assumption -- and only *constraints* really count
as assumptions.
