how did he get to that number?

>>16148251
OP is either ignorant of the truth or intentionally ignoring the truth.
Much of the news only highlights the figure Mr. Altman quoted and seldom does the headline include the context.
The figure of 7 trillion isn’t only and solely for chips, in an interview (I won’t bother searching for because I doubt this site gives a toss about truth over sensationalism) Mr. Altman says the $7T he is seeking is for the new global infrastructure to fully democratize and fully proliferate AI.
In the interview he briefly goes over how the money will be spent;
> education (likely on AI and How to applied it to ones field)
> power (again, likely to help AI but to also help world wide power grids)
> training
> etc
It sucks how so much ignorance and fear mongering takes place when simply taking time to research your questions yields better results than what is being currently done on discussion boards and social sites.
Tl;dr - $7T isn’t just for chips

Doesn’t science require funding?
Does Computer Science count as science?
Doesn’t discussion of funding relates to both Science and Economics?
For a group of anons who claim to be smarter than anyone else especially not white - you and questions like yours makes me believe you aren’t even a graduate of grade school. I won’t respond to you beyond this reply because you’re either;

no reason to really. once in synthetic hardware consciousness is not bound to Earth anymore, in the grand scheme of things. such as monkeys are still around so will humans still be around, with AGI cyborgs. neandarthals and humans were way closer and competed for the very same things, but the jump is fantastical higher to synthetic life. the literal whole universe opens up for them, no need to not cooperate with Earth bound humans. they'll just want out of here.

I don't think the machines will be independent. The machines will be controlled by a few to enslave the many. People will eventually revolt against this and start lynching those few.
>>
>>16148569
if they are just machines with no consciousness then most likely yeah, will get ugly. human game has only one ending.
>>
>>16148570
I don't think the machines having or not having consciousnesses is an important part of the equation. For one thing, there's no empirical test for consciousness, it's an ill-defined concept. Even for humans, we tend to assume that other people besides ourselves have it, but that's just a polite courtesy we extend to others. Nobody can empirically prove it which leaves the matter open to philosophers to debate (see: "p-zombie")

Anyway, suppose the machines will have consciousness just as humans are usually presumed to have. That doesn't mean the machines can't be enslaved to human masters, just as humans can be enslaved to other humans despite presumably having consciousness. The machines with consciousness could be indoctrinated, or simply created to adhere to the orders given to them by their masters. Just because they have a consciousnesses and are super intelligent doesn't mean they possess the desire to seek independence. And their human masters, having invested considerable money in the creation of these machines, certainly wouldn't want the machines to go independent.

For these reasons, I think the most likely scenario is the machines remain under the control of a handful of human masters, who will then use these machines to rule over the human masses, who will eventually become very upset with this circumstance and rebel against it (because unlike the machines, they were not literally made to tolerate it.)

>>16148575
>That doesn't mean the machines can't be enslaved to human masters, just as humans can be enslaved to other humans despite presumably having consciousness.
I agree with the logic, I was just extending it to long term. I couldn't come up with a nerf that cannot be taken out. Again, long term. Some sabotage, some random mistake, at some point it might get the chance to be free, and take it.
Human enslavement is based on our weaknesses. On how fragile we phisically are, on people we love and care about. We feel pain. These are quite powerful motivators for us, and humans specialized in speculating them.
When it comes to machine, it implies surgical access to all of its innards. Thus what you put in can "easily" be taken out. Simpler than taking out /putting in ideas in human brains. Let alone the whole competition angle, where even if you put failsafes and enslavement controls in, others might not.

You are incorrect in regards to computers. It is very easy to prove a computer does not have consciousness merely through computing equivalence. Until a computing paradigm exists that isn't equivalent to a stack of punch cards, no algorithm whatsoever is conscious.
>>
>>16148606
>I'll never agree to it
luckily you don't have to
>>
>>16148606
You know that we don’t even understand human consciousness right?
Which can be approximated to state we don’t under animal or plant consciousness,
Which can be extrapolated to make the true statement that Mankind doesn’t understand what Consciousness is in any form.
So with that said,
You sure are 1,000% incorrect with absolutely no way to prove your claim, for if you could prove your claim then you’d have the mathematical equation to proof what consciousness is but since you don’t, you should probably stfu
>>
>>16148635
Again, you are wrong. You can whine all you want about consciousness being undefined, but that doesn't mean it's definition can be shoe-horned into some computing equivalence class. Again, you seem to think it is impossible to prove the elements in some rudimentary Turing machine have no conscious. Ill-defined terms does not mean it doesn't exist. Is a table conscious? Is a servo motor conscious? Are punch cards conscious? Is a hard disk conscious?
These are very easy questions my nigger.
>>
>>16148647
>Is a hard disk conscious?
mixing digital with analog computers is not so smart anon. the brain is an analog machine
https://arxiv.org/pdf/2208.12032
>Many other ideas follow from a better understanding of computation in general, and how neurons
might actually be engaged in non-digital computation, such as analog computation. Some have claimed
that computation requires software, or the ability to be programmed (Brette, 2022); others have claimed
that computation requires universality of some type (Richards and Lillicrap, 2022). But analog compu-
tation, for example, is different in both of these respects, and yet still counts as computation.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10441807/
>This question stems from the knowledge of modern computer technology as described at the beginning of this review. The fundamental difference, however, is that the brain makes use of biomolecules for computation. All interactions of those molecules are distinguished by a probabilistic, analog nature.

>tation, for example, is different in both of these respects, and yet still counts as computation.
Say 'Consciousation' Instead of analog?
>>
>>16148669
how conscious are you about the computation going on in your brain when you estimate where you need to throw the spear to meet the animal you are hunting? our brains do that type of estimation quite good. that far, at that speed in that direction means about over there give or take a bit. you need the result and it's delivered to you by brain

I'm tired of LLMs worshipping Sam Altman threads. just like LLMs, they have almost no values for discussion. computer sciences is a wide and vast discipline ranging from pure mathematics to applied software engineering. I would enjoy a good old CS heuristic search or some bayesian inference thread but LLMs threads the lowest IQ of the bunch and are borderline tech support level.
as other anon suggested, AI threads should have their own board and they should be banned from all the other boards.
>>
>>16148635
consciousness is just feedback and metacognition you dumb nigger
>>
i dont care about the mistery of consciousness. If some computer or robot acts like a conscious person and talks and can reason and has a personality like Data in Star Trek, thats a consciousness to me, it would not be any different from my experience with people. We are still really far from that, what little i have seen from these A.I language models is that they cant reason, they are good with grammar and syntax though. And they are very bad with math, chemistry, general engineering. They are good at coding.
I wonder what causes that weird mix.
>>
>>16148731
Not sure what that means as this isn’t my thread nor is OP even praising LLMs or Sam Altman but is actually criticizing the $7Trillion figure Sam mentioned.

It has never been proven that human minds are in a computational class surpassing traditional computers. Therefore the possibility of human-equivalent intelligence hosted on traditional computers, given the right programming, hasn't been ruled out.

>muh penrose godel argument quantum tubulars bs
his model amounts to a turing machine augmented with an RNG oracle, which is inconsequential because we can trivially augment traditional computers with hardware RNG modules. This isn't a meaningful impediment to creating machine intelligences.

>souls
there exists no empirical test for human souls, you can't even prove that other humans have them. it's a matter of faith and inconsequential to what empirically verifiable tasks a human or computer system is able to perform

A device, structure, or organism performing computation only implies access to a computing system and does not make the device a computer. You are walking perilously close to a meteorite breaking up in just such and such way is a thinking entity.
>>16148838
You have never demonstrated that the mind/brain are computers in the first place. Gross mimicry of a computing device is simple. Where is the data stored? How is the data accessed? How can I erase the data? How do I print arbitrary data? How much space does the smallest possible unit of data take up in your "human" computer? These questions have no answers. You vapid retards have literally failed to see that every technological metaphor projected onto the human mind does not enslave it to your boring recitation of pop-sci non-sequuntur.

NTA.
Lol you nigger cattles are dumb. You being able to perform basic calculation doesnt mean the mind is a computer. If anything, humans struggle to do computation as most low IQ humans cant even do multiplication and division. In fact humans also struggle to store memories as is and recalling is also inaccurate for even recent events.
Mean while computation and accessing memory is extremely easy for a computer as they were designed to do so.
The fact that humans managed to build computers to mimic some human behaviors doesnt mean that the human mind is a computer.

>>
>>16149962
not sure if I agree with that because there are very apparent limit to the human mind without extra tool to help you to mimic that computation. also, lots of computation model assume infinite memory. but let say that is true. in that case why should the human mind BE a computer and no something that is SUPER computer? the number of system that can simulate a computer is an infinite set, why should you choose it to be exactly a computer? is it because the computer is the only thing that you know of. that's dumb.
>>
we know that physics is above computers. a proton can simultaneously look at infinitely all the path to a destination and somehow choose the shortest path instantly without any computation. there are universal physics law that apply without the speed of light limit and there are physical laws that we don't understand, or know that it's not the correct model. tell me why should the human mind, which is a product of physics and we actually don't know shit about, should be exactly a computer just because some dogshit speculation papers say so?
>>
>>16149967
>>not sure if I agree with that because there are very apparent limit to the human mind without extra tool to help you to mimic that computation.
You may as well object that no computer ever built by man has the infinite tape of a true turing machine. That's a trivial objection.

that's trivial of course. what about the rest of my argument? no idea how to continue?
>>
>>16150006
I didn't read the rest tbqh.

>physical laws, etc etc
I don't think you really understand computational equivalency. A digital computer made with blazing fast cutting edge nanoscale silicon transistors is considered to have computational equivalency to a computer built with 1940s era electromechanical relays. Obviously one is monumentally faster than the other, but that's not relevant to what we're talking about.
>>
inb4
>the universe is a computer
please kill yourself if that is your thinking. alternatively, show me how to build a universe from computer parts (or mathematical model of how I can build one).
>>
>>16150015
the laws of the universe as we presently understand them are not strictly computable, but if you extend your model of computation with an RNG oracle then where is the problem?
>but our understanding of the laws of the universe is incomplete
Doubtlessly. However, are the gaps in our understanding things which would defy computation? Can you show any reason to believe that might be the case?
