Although I don’t like comments starting with “your logic slipped” because it sounds passive-aggressive “you are stupid” vibes I will reply.
Sorry, that’s not how I meant it. I meant it more like “Oh, I think your foot slipped there, so if you take another step I think it won’t have the effect you’re looking for.” We can all slip up. It’s intended as a friendly note.
I agree that on rereading it it didn’t come across that way.
So what you are saying is that yes this time is different just not today. It will definately happen and all the doomerism is correct but not on a short timeline because ____ insert reasoning that is different than what the top AI minds are saying today.
Uh, no. That’s not what I’m saying.
I’m saying something more like: if it turns out that doomerism is once again exaggerated, perhaps we should take a step back and ask what’s creating the exaggeration instead of plowing ahead as we have been.
how can you know if it’s exaggerated? It’s like an earthquake. The fact that it didn’t happen yet doesn’t mean that it will not be destructive if it happens through time. The superintelligence slope doesn’t stop somewhere to evaluate nor do we have any kind of signal that the more time passes the more improbable it is.
