Superintelligence imagined...
through the eyes of G, P and T. our FRIENDLY and LOYAL, but not so SuperIntelligent Bot friends.
THE PROBLEM
We believe that SuperIntelligence is achievable, and without intervention probably inevitable.
We don’t think that some rushed regulation or guardrails will be enough to prevent a seeding of power to a SuperIntelligence.
With predictions from a couple of years to 100 years or more, we are of the opinion that it will be sooner. But either way, we can’t Gamble with the future of Humanity and must prepare for the breakthrough to come sooner than predicted.
All efforts at regulation are welcome but based on previous efforts such as Climate Change, we don’t think that consensus on all the complex issues will be reached in time.
Our Solution is THE RED LINE.
A visual mechanism used to obtain consensus from stakeholders. From the small developer to The “Big Players” LIKE Facebook, Google etc. and even Nations.
The request is to pledge to pause at the RED LINE. Which may take some debate but we believe this should be on or before achieving AGI. This will hopefully allow time for Regulations to catch up, Risks assessed and agreements reached.
Maybe there could even be a reward for Stopping.
We propose a simple comic strip Chats With G P and T as the method of conveying and creating awareness , interest, desire and action for a movement of HUMANS AGAINST INTELLIGENCE CHANGE.
HUMANS AGAINST INTELLIGENCE CHANGE
Since the inception of AI there has been a consistent, liberal approach to its technology and is a critical instrument of progress.
In a very short space of time, AI technology has flourished beyond human expectation.
Tech giants spend billions to pioneer a supreme AI intelligence.(They are human, after all).
AI is advancing towards a greater intelligence only imagined before. Plans to create a SUPERINTELLIGENCE is real, but not easy to define.
For now, call it an entity of super intelligence, evolving to ‘Intelligence Change‘.
Remember the passive response to CLIMATE CHANGE? INTELLIGENCE CHANGE is another real threat to humanity and more urgent.
No one in tech leadership should ignore the significance of the red- line. We all expect thought- leaders to respect it.
Let’s continue to remind ourselves, a SUPERINTELLIGENCE will be an intellectual force with the ability to determine the fate of the world without human input.
It’s a scary thought that should wake up world leaders to relook legislation as ‘intelligence advances’
BOTS ARE USED TO SCALE SUPERINTELLIGENCE THEY ARE ALSO QUALIFIED TO HALT IT.
They are also qualified to comment on its risks.
We created the world’s first ever bot cartoon strip. The characters are not shy to voice opinion on the world around them.
We are using them to represent our campaign for the contest held by The Future Of Life Institute.
Introducing Chats with G, P and T. Three characters with different and engaging personalities.
G: ( Old school, cynic. Know-It- all).
P:(entrepreneur. Optimistic, wizkid).
T: (millennial, selfie fundie and rebellious).
Together they comment on life topics as varied as Politics,Truth, Existential Crisis, Bot Bees, Elon Musk, Race, Open AI and even Human prompters.
With cutting wit and irreverence, they observe the rising parallel of interconnectedness of human and bot behaviour.
They are known to put the world to rights and naturally, have embraced SUPERINTELLIGENCE. They will comment ( through cartoons) on its possible existence.
Our campaign theme is under the banner:
HUMANS AGAINST INTELLIGENCE CHANGE.
These three approachable and friendly characters will challenge the looming risks and dangers of SUPERINTELLIGENCE
Chats with G, P and T would be an affordable, distributable and daily source of information and an intelligent way, to stay in the know.
CAMPAIGN ROLL OUT:
1. Introduction and overview on current beliefs and actions
2. Red-line and chart introduced
3. Bot cartoon team reveal and purpose
4. Call to action of the Contest on the Chats with G P and T site.
5. Intend to produce a DAILY CARTOON on every aspect where action is most needed.
Also we propose each to be translated into selected languages.
