BlueDot Narrated

Where I Agree and Disagree with Eliezer

04 Jan 2025

Description

(Partially in response to AGI Ruin: A list of Lethalities. Written in the same rambling style. Not exhaustive.)Agreements Powerful AI systems have a good chance of deliberately and irreversibly disempowering humanity. This is a much easier failure mode than killing everyone with destructive physical technologies. Catastrophically risky AI systems could plausibly exist soon, and there likely won’t be a strong consensus about this fact until such systems pose a meaningful existential risk per year. There is not necessarily any “fire alarm.” Even if there were consensus about a risk from powerful AI systems, there is a good chance that the world would respond in a totally unproductive way. It’s wishful thinking to look at possible stories of doom and say “we wouldn’t let that happen;” humanity is fully capable of messing up even very basic challenges, especially if they are novel.Source:https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/CoZhXrhpQxpy9xw9y/where-i-agree-and-disagree-with-eliezer---A podcast by BlueDot Impact.Learn more on the AI Safety Fundamentals website.
