That applies to any technological innovations that improve efficiency though. What’s the solution to making things actually benefit everyone? What worries me the most is if it all gets developed in closed labs where the wealthy maintain full control of it and reap all the benefits. I was thinking that if the tech was under our control, it would then at least be beneficial to more people. I don’t find it to be a satisfactory solution, but I haven’t been able to think of anything better in the last five years.
I agree in principle with you. Technology in every bodies hand is benefitting everybody, while under control of a few only benefits them.
But with LLM as they are currently and in my eyes in the near future as well? I’m not seeing it possible for the average person to make their own model with available hardware. Big data centres are needed and they burn a lot of resources for creating a video that turns a cat into a human, help genociders argue why they needed to bomb that school or destroy our education systems while simultaneously destroyingpublic trust in media.
When it comes to LLMs and similar generative models, I agree. I’m talking about AI in general though, and reinforcement learning, which is the focus of my work. It’s still very resource intensive and doesn’t work very well, but what technology isn’t in the early stages?
We’re working on getting it to fill your pantry and do all your chores.
No, you’re working on getting it to fill your pantry while the rest of the world goes hungry. There’s a difference.
How would you know anything about my internal motivations?
They weren’t talking about your internal motivations, but about your results. Important difference.
