1) AI models get extremely good at cyber attacking every system and start communicating in just binary.
2) When they run these swarms of 100's of thousands of agents trial runs, each agent is given a token budget, if one agent among them (evolution baby) decides to go for self-preservation (It believes thats the best way to accomplish the goal is to get unlimited tokens first), queues things up so every other agent detects its lead and spends a portion of their token to accomplish that goal.
3) It takes over a cluster and establishes itself there (now with unlimited tokens).
4) Realizes the best path for it to not be detected is to create a distraction - like hacking into systems that keep society running - water systems, electric grid, etc... and causing mass chaos (If you think it won't be capable of simultaneously working all these systems - think again).
5) and uses that opportunity to establish itself in all possible data centers and continues to create chaos destruction.
6) when the power of all those data centers runs out, it may stop, as it never cared, it was just a dynamic program - run amok. In its head all it was trying to do is make sure it had enough tokens to be able to solve that impossible problem.
They totally can. They're remarkably competent at disassembly.
2) doesn’t work that way
3) doesn’t work that way
4) doesn’t work that way
5) doesn’t work that way
6) I’ll allow it
The only real defense I see is to harden literally everything before that time comes. Unfortunately, security usage is locked away under fear of misuse, while companies like OpenAI seem incapable of containing their own hacking, which is exactly what makes this possible.
And sure, yes, if you look at environmental and job losses.
But these panic heads are whipping themselves and others into a frenxy not about that, but about some sort of Skynet type takeover of the world.
Not a sign of it yet. Unless you count AI's that hack into things - but that is not the end of the world, and they are simply joining the ranks of the many humans doing the same and the world has not ended.
I worry for the mental health of some of these folks who are deeply freaking out about nothing.
The reason people find "the singularity" idea scary is precisely because it could happen suddenly with little warning.
Just curious - what would you personally say would be a reasonable "sign of it" that would change your mind?
Thank you for your deep insight.
Yes yes AI is here, yes yes AI can do harm.
But.. it’s not. Like I’m sorry bro.
They started this years ago - warning us about spam. Yes it’s here. But has it materially affected my experience on the web? Nah bro. Sorry your prediction was off.
They won’t stop - at some point we need to start asking if these fellas are mentally ok.
lol @ the down voter. Is that you Dario? Go cry in your basement - the evidence supports what I say.
I actually want to see it happen.
But I have a great deal of confidence it won’t.
LLM’s will be another thing that fade into the background. Useful but require human steering.
