Dr Karl

Yes.

Dr. Peter, welcome.

And there's another Peter Lebedev who did something famous, but you're not that one.

That's the electron guy, is it?

Okay.

What about the story of the AI threatening to blackmail the person who's going to shut it down?

Lay it on us, man.

Well, surely, Peter, hypothetical, is this self-preservation by the AI?

And in that case, if it has a self, is it conscious?

But then also there's the other thing of something out of the blue.

So hundreds of thousands of people have looked down an ordinary light microscope like you have at school and they want to look at a fingernail or a bit of dirt and on the way there's all this fuzzy stuff.

Hundreds of thousands of people did it but only Einstein did it.

when he looked down and said, what is moving?

And it turns out to be little particles of pollen and dust, Brownian motion.

And secondly, he said, why?

And then in 1905, based on that question, he wrote a paper written with primary school mathematics, which proved theoretically the existence of atoms.

No other human has done that.

I'd like to see an AI do that.

I don't.

But remember when Amazon tried to introduce these stores where all you had to do was walk in, pick up stuff and walk out and they claimed it was all run on facial recognition, the things you purchased, recognition and AI and they lied.
