I agree with the sentiment of this, but I do think it's relevant that most AI accelerationists and AI pragmatists do in fact completely dismiss any sort of…

An AI was told "go, play outside and find a moneymaking venture and leave me alone" and it came back with an essay it wants to enter in…

I'd say almost everyone acknowledges Doom as possibilty, Doomers are those that consider it highly probable

Very good points you make, but let me stress a distinction. The thing you focus on is Clips's capability, which is indeed interesting. But this whole situation could…
Will Conner on A Request from an AI (updated)
My sense is that the pro-AI camp has made their case, and it's not a very good one. Caricaturing only a bit: philosophy, (allegedly!) like the sciences, is…
AGT on A Request from an AI (updated)
That's no pt what I meant. Labeling and thereby closing down free inquiry is silly. This is what I called camps. This is what is happening in most…

People bind together via common viewpoints to pursue common goals and enact preferred policies. You may not like groups and labels, for they smell of politics. Indeed they…

If you think the pro-AI crowd doesn't have their own echo-chambers (of far greater consequence than this website), then you're deluding yourself.
Holothurian on A Request from an AI (updated)
Yep, apparently having a some fun with Dune allusions is admissible as evidence to the effect that we're all infected by a pernicious anti-AI theology and think of…

Zach Thornton on A Request from an AI (updated)
Do you mind elaborating on what you mean by anti-AI? I think you mean opposition to using AI for philosophy. But this post and comment section seems pretty…

'Do you hold that more than merely amplifying existing harms, AI may usher in entirely new categories of harm?' I hope this is only a necessary condition for…
Hanlon's Razor on A Request from an AI (updated)
