The pace of progress of AI
Image created with Chat GPT Sol 5.6 High
We had a discussion today about AI and the speed of its progress ... We are in a group of pro-techology people, passionate about blockchain, AI and advanced technology in general. And most of us expressed unease concerning the latest developments ... so one of us came up with a quick poll: "If you could slow, stop or reverse AI development, would you?"
The discussion turned to the question of the poll itself. I compared the pace of progress of AI now with drinking a great bottle of red wine. I was saying:
We had a great glass of red wine. Maybe two. Or three. Should we perhaps slow down? Very likely! Should we stop drinking a fourth glass? Perhaps ... But "reverse"? Id est should we go try to "wash our stomach somehow"? The wine IS a great wine ... it's not poisoned ... so "reverse" - definitely no!'
Es muy dificil ralentizar el avance de las IA ya en la actualidad. Tendrían que ponerse muy de acuerdo las grandes compañías que están teniendo jugosas ganancias. Cosa que veo bien dificil al tenerse desconconfianzas unas de otras por el tempo al perder el mercado.
The development of IA has its own dynamic and we have no chance of influencing it, realistically speaking. Here, the discussion was hypothetical: "what if we could influence"?
Good morning. Best regards. If we could influence. I think it should stay where it is refining details to be more precise in certain areas that currently require the use of so-called "prompts" but it should never take the path of becoming completely independent of human beings.
