Some fighters will receive bonuses in ‘stablecoins’ issued by Trump family business World Liberty Financial
The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) announced on Friday that it will pay bonuses to fighters in a form of cryptocurrency issued by Trump family business World Liberty Financial at the heavily publicized White House mixed martial arts event on Sunday.
The development connects the Trump family’s financial interests to the high-profile UFC competition being promoted on government property. The competition on the south White House lawn is scheduled for 14 June, Donald Trump’s birthday.
The UFC said some fighters will receive bonuses in World Liberty Financial crypto called “stablecoins”, whose value is pegged to the US dollar. World Liberty named the currency “USD1”.
Unfortunately, it seems that current LLMs are largely a black box, it’s already lying to us and hiding things. A super intelligent LLM would quite likely run rings around our attempt to monitor it.
I also think the indication is that a super-intelligent LLM would “want” something. I don’t know you have consciousness without it.
You keep reading “LLM” when I say “AI”.
I really don’t think LLMs will ever be superintelligent or true AI. They’re merely text prediction engines. Maybe an LLM will be part of a true AI – like the speech center of the AI’s brain. But the speech center alone can never be superintelligent … or even truly intelligent at all.
I’m saying whatever a true AI is going to be orders of magnitude more complex than LLM’s. The idea that it’ll be a machine we can fully control is a layer of fantasy on an already fantastical concept.
