Then figure out how to use AI to do something else that is easier and pays better. The times won't wait for you, as they didn't for sellers of buggy whips.

My own job seems to be on the line, too. Chatgpt can answer complex questions about my workfield with decent enough answers that if clients asked them to chatgpt instead of me, the differences are small enough to not matter. Luckily for me, most do not know what the right questions are to ask.

On the flip side? Imagine that you can now start to create things in a CAD program that you tell what to make in your own voice, not an arcane set of codes or even having to be able to draw. Then, get the AI aided/verified design 3D printed, and you have a prototype. The same goes for a modular printboard/micro computer design and the code for the software that runs on it. Suddenly, "everyone" can create new toys, tools, utilities, car parts, or whatever you can think of.

If you want to be fearful of AI, don't be afraid to lose your job. Be afraid to lose your life, Terminator style. 🙃

Actually, like Tesla demonstrates with the remaining lack of true FSD,, interpreting the surroundings accurately may be more difficult than reasoning about those surroundings for now.

The difference is emerging behaviour. If a sufficiently complex, self adapting structure can modify itself to perform more than it was trained for, the outcome is unknown. Unknown outcomes scare people.

Exactly that. If the complexity of the human mind automatically emerges from a relatively simpel model with sufficiently advanced training/inputs, that would be very telling.

The upside could be insane. imagine being able to program a CAD program or to create a web app or basically do all sorts of work that are now done by humans. instead these people will be telling machines what to do in natural language so the acceleration to productivity could be enormous. If this Goes South Though de consequences will be bad because yes people will be combining AI with Boston Dynamics advanced new models so Ultimately a "Terminator" scenario is Absolutely possible. What A Timeline To Live in.

For The Record, if true, it confirms some of my suspicions around the nature of human intelligence, but the timeline is much earlear than I expected. 😬
