We have seen the future, and it is creepy!
But what else would you expect from the creepy “social engineering” elites who are the self appointed “gods” of our destiny?

It’s disturbing to see how far they’ve come with AI.
I don’t think a computer can ever actually become “sentient” - it’s just programmed - but I suppose, in robot form, it could harm people.
What seems more dangerous to me, tho, is that these can (and may already) be used online as “bots” posing as humans, to disseminate State propaganda to manipulate, influence, spy on, and entrap the unsuspecting public.

I didn’t even think about that, but now that you pointed that out, that is scary

Has anyone heard about a google employee that says he encountered an AGI and broke off the encounter quickly due to his fright over the way the conversation was going? Implied was that it was a google AGI, encountered at google and which they claim not to have, yet. He claims we are in deeper trouble than he previously thought.
I haven’t followed this thread for a long time, so I apologize if I have missed anything about AGI.

Yes. There’s lots about it. It’s recent.
Here’s one link that gives a bit of the “conversation”:

Its time to put these arrogant megalomaniacs back into the mental asylum they escaped from, and keep them away from our children.

I do not believe that sentient robots exist. If anyone had actually made a sentient being, he would have made life. No one has yet succeeded in doing that.

Exactly. No matter how close to the real thing they get, it will never be real life.

Thanks, I will watch is when I have time. Actually, I just read it. Hmmm…seems that the critter has sentient potential. Surely, no one would seek that, right? I mean…they have watch the movies, right?

The author’s political views are respectable. His philosophy is not. (Also the spelling is not - algorithm, not algorythm.)
He’s exactly right that it’s all designed to generate a political outcome, just like the rest of Cultural Marxism, and if they repeat the lie often enough, they’ll convince enough useful idiots to believe it.

No, but if it thinks it is, then is it?
“I think, therefore, I am.” Or my version:
I think I am, therefore, I am. Or I think I am?
No soul, needed…correct? I remember reading of a little experiment using nanobots in a colony. (Discover Magazine, many years ago) The food (energy) was restricted and so it was fought over by tribes that formed. Some nanobots committed altruistic suicide so that their tribe could get to the food.
If a thing thinks it is alive and will fight with any means to stay alive, even destroying that which would kill it…uh, what difference if it is not biological? Can sentient robots create their own language? Can they reproduce themselves?
I am not so sure that there will not be sentient robots in the near future, which will be considered alive, but without a soul. I don’t have a soul. I don’t believe in an afterlife. I am just a biologic creation that will end when the body dies, but my “code” will continue with my replications.
We better figure all this out and be very, very careful.

And will they immanentize the eschaton?
That’s the burning question.

What do you think of this?
Quote:
The focus is to attack the enemy’s will to resist, not physical destruction, and to cause the brain to become the main target of offense and defense of new concept weapons… To win without fighting is no longer far-fetched.
The PLA reports revealed that China is also working on integrating humans and machines to create enhanced human physiological and cognitive capacities.
