☕ David Antoine Interesting quote found on quitfacebook... "Our brains are no match for our technology". But our technology is a direct result of our brains. So, put it very simply, is it matching when we do good things with it and not matching when we do bad things? Any thoughts?

😏 Yt L. Technology lets us concentrate and combine mental energy. I could beat any chess AI if the developer were only allowed 30 seconds to write it, but if the developer has weeks or months to concentrate chess/AI strategy and persist it in a well tested program... The invested mental energy adds up and overcomes the natural condition.

☕ David Antoine Do you think it will be possible one day to code something simple for a few minutes and then let it go and see it auto-rewrite itself to a high AI level? Makes me think again about cellular automata, starting simple to end up very complex.. Or simplexity ; but I'm not sure the term could apply in that case as it is more in relation to chaos theory and strange attractors (if I remember correctly)...

😏 Yt L. Maybe! Although then, using the paradigm I described above, I'd describe it as a concentration of all the intellectual energy that went into developing or discovering the system that enabled this.

☕ David Antoine That could be pretty useful, provided you don't fuck up the initial conditions and be certain of its reproducibility I guess... All this makes me want to watch Ex Machina again :) Alicia Vikander was perfect in that movie...

😾 Oskar Guys, GPT3 model was released few days ago. It allows for generating text on level indistinguishable from human, generating websites and more only based on 'prompts' and not programming language. Actually it's highly possible with things like games bound to strict rules to assume that it will be possible to code it in 30 second. PS. Garland also made Devs - I have mixed feelings but still a little different from most of Hollywood.

☕ David Antoine Ok that was fast... So it's already happening to some extent. This decade is going to be the AI one. Maybe. And I know there is not a real AI yet, it is all machine learning and algorithms (correct me if wrong), but still, it is becoming really impressive. And also a bit frightening...
