Human becoming batteries for robots in Matrix was simply a sacrificial lamb to producers, who did not believe that the audience would grasp original idea of humans providing computational power of their brains to machines. I heard it explained that way and it makes sense because humans as batteries is just inefficient.
Yeah, that a better explanation. Because we’re not that good at making energy from food, but we do have a pretty unique ability to connect brain cells together into complex patterns. Some people argue the brain 🧠 is the most complex thing in the universe right now.
Apologies in advance for the reductio ad orwellum, but inventing a new human language instead of just letting them evolve naturally sounds doubleplusungood.
Benjamin Franklin started doing this using misspelled words and new words- but AI is already smart enough to unscramble decode that style, and the rate at which it can earn language is already astounding
@@dylan_curious Check out a research article titled "Planetary biotechnospheres, biotechnosignatures and the search for extraterrestrial intelligence". It's about merging life and technology on the scale from microbes to humans to the biosphere.

Best synthetic language would be one where if an untrue statement was constructed, it would have prosodic deficiencies that could be corrected simply by hearing it and fixing the rhythm and harmony! Sort of like a grammar that disallows unmusicality !
One solution to the bee problem is to put temperature sensing thermoelectric cooling units on the bumblebee nests that are solar rechargeable, that way they can keep a nest a certain internal temperature.
21:04 You're describing honey bees, bumble bees are essentially unorganized, don't have hives (nests), don't dance, don't have a division of labor or use pheromones. I like bumble bees the most though but they are in a lot of danger from how our planet is changing. they like overgrown pastures and the wilderness but much of that is disappearing. They are the trucks of pollination too visiting over 10 times the number of plants compared with the honey bees and they visit - making them vital for pollination - and life on earth. What's more is they they almost never get angry - even though most bumble bees can sting multiple times, it's extremely rare to be stung by one. Honey bees might be industrious but bumble bees are the right hand of mother nature.
I didn’t know the difference between bumblebees and honeybees! Thanks for the clarification. Is one of the greatest comments ever! I had no idea they were the trucks of Mother Nature!
Suno is now at version 3.5 and sounds even better than 3.0 can generate up to a max time of 4 minutes and can be extended, and I don't know how it does it, but mariachi songs sound so authentic.
I had the very same idea regarding languages. That is to say, to create a language that would allow a computer to navigate and maneuver through human reasoning more easily. For example, it would be very much like the concept of Esperanto, in that nouns would end with a certain letter and verbs would end with a certain letter sound. For example to say, " The bird flew very high ", it might read, " The birda fluer very high ". Here all nouns would end in the a sound or letter "a", and verbs with an "er". This would help the machine to immediately identify the structure of the language. Of course the language would also have to sound good. By that I mean it would have to be pleasant to listen to and to perform well in musical lyrics. It would have to be easily converted from standard English that we now have into a this new form. So easily converted, that even a child with just a little practice could convert standard English to this new type of 'pig Latin'.
This is a small example to continue the idea of just a little. Here I prompted chat to take that idea of recreating a language and just look what it was able to discern by the rules I gave it. I don't think that would be very hard to pull off. Basically it's just diagramming sentences by some method that you have chosen. I wish I had the money to pursue these type of ideas. Here goes... .... Okay Chat here is a new project for you. I am trying to create a language that will help you determine nouns verbs adjectives and the object of a verb. Here are the rules. If a word is a noun it ends in the letter "a", if a word ends in "er", it is a verb, if it ends in an "a" followed by a "tion" , pronounce "ah shun" it is the object of a verb. Pronouns maintain their English form. " He" is still a "he", and "she" is still a " she ", etc.. The letter "a" by itself is still a classifier that denotes a single object, a thing. The word,"the", You still a classifier that denotes a specific object, that is to say a specific thing. So with the following sentence I would like you to list which words are nouns and which words are verbs and objects according to the rules I gave you. I noticeder that the doga was runninger quickly. He was chasinger a rabbitation.

I am increasingly shocked by the extent of the lack of general education in the USA. What do you actually know about the world around you?! How can you ask such uneducated questions? I think the extent of ignorance about the basics shocks me more than the fact that more and more young people are blathering on about AI and AGI and all these vague and undefined empty words - without realizing how our world, the environment, the animal world, human (and political) society as a whole organism have developed in the first place and how all of this interrelates. What kind of future are we heading for if future decision-makers may no longer have a real understanding of the world because they simply were not taught basic education and do not even have the skills to acquire this basic education? I am getting cold - but not because AI is getting faster and faster, but because people are increasingly fading into materialistic sophistry brain-jerking.... My oh my.... sorry, this just had to come out.
As for creating a human/ai language for all humans…I have some thoughts. (It’s a little long but I think a worthwhile mind exploring read) So, I don’t know another language either but I know a little of a few others. One of them being mandarin (my wife is a 1st gen, Chinese immigrant). Actually, idk Mandarain but more some of the concepts in the language like they don’t have a word for he or she, they don’t talk in past, present or future tense. It kind of blows my mind. The culture are so incredibly different in the way they how the world works, and you can begin to see it in how the language is structured. So, overcoming the cultural differences to create a language that all humans can grasp clearly is a very, very nuanced (nuanced is a great prompt word btw) challenge. When diving into this endeavor one will have to find some intellectual flexibility and work from zeroth principal thinking. It would also probably help to study the attempt at the hypothetical “proto-human language” by Polish Dr LL Zamenhoff in the late 1870s. He called the language Esperanto and he had hoped it would promote world peace, unity and understanding. With as connected as the world is via Social Media, reviving the concept of a “proto-human language” may actually work. Tack on the intelligence and creativity of an AI, and I think it’s a unique concept worth at least exploring further. I would be down to work on it with you. If it only ended up being a mental exercise or if we made it work, I’d enjoy the exploration. P.S. I’ve actually created words and definitions/concepts with AI. Exploring a new language is something I want to do with AI, at some point anyhow…so you kind of struck a nerve.
I only learned about Esperanto after reading these comments, but I am fascinated by the language now. I also am fascinated with how new words for new definitions change the way we communicate and even think internally and how there’s a symbiotic relationship between language and society. So when you said you’ve actually created new words with AI, I found that fascinating too!
@@dylan_curious yeah, I’m not a linguist but I read articles/watched RUclips videos on the subject enough to inspire my curiosity, imagination and exploration of the idea of language
A lot of People don’t realize how recent the mammoth extinction was. The Egyptians were well established by then and the Greeks were just getting started. I am all for bringing back things like the mammoth, dodo, and Tasmanian tiger. Undo some stupid things humans did.
Yeah, it makes sense if it's gone because of our changes to planet. What's your thoughts on bringing back the megalodon shark? It's not nearly as old as the dinosaurs, but it did go extinct before humans.
21:04 it does raise some interesting questions about the two-tiered society however I think it was Ray kurzweil who also pointed out that when you talk about smartphones for instance back in 2005 they were not very accessible they were very expensive now near 2024 you can get them for as cheap as $30 and access to the internet of course and you can get the chat function for zero cost if you go to Bing and use co-pilot and better information and computing is going to become less expensive once again in the future and then once biology is digitized well then anytime something becomes a information technology will then it starts declining up cost. So in short the rich will always have better stuff cuz they can afford it but that hopefully what will happen is that all the stuff that's considered insanely good that this moment in time will be insanely cheap in another 15 years.
Unfortunately, I don't know. The people dancing is another video that's over laid under the french fries somehow but I don't know what tool they are using.
26:32 Hm what happened that led LLMs astray from their beginnings as automatic translators, with concepts stored in the same relative shapes regardless of the language?
Random thought about latent spaces: don't you think it's interesting how in our dreams we cant read or tell the time, and similarly ai models struggle with producing text? Maybe dreaming is like exploring our own latent space?
Yes, I do find it interesting! I really think there might be some parallels to back propagation or loosening the constraints or something like that going on.
It is also true that you cannot say your full name while dreaming without waking up! Maybe the part of the brain that we call ourselves by labeling that part with a name is somehow related to reading and our perception of time. It's just a guess of course. But often times functionalities in the brain are often adjacent to one another if they share commonalities.
As for the generational adoption, I actually looking into Gen Alpha (born 2010-2024) habbits. They live a lot on social video games/social VR and there for a very creative, don’t always tend to be human based avatars and world build. So, they could be better Zero principle thinkers and when biological engineering happens, they will modify into all sorts of new entities, possibly.
Oh my gosh... I will need to take some time to digest that comment. You're probably right, but if they grow up, thinking about biological entities the way I did digital entities that would really be a different perspective on life.
@@dylan_curious yeah, I had a long convo with my GPT about it. It’s gonna, potentially, get really weird. I’m Gen X so I was there as the internet came into fruition, millenials grew up with the iPhone and the internet already in place, Gen Y grows up with iPhones, VR, Web3 and AI coming into mass scale fruition, I’d guess Gen A grows up with VR and AI at scale, and still watched Web3 grow and AR come into mass scale
A lie detector could to a lot..in the congress, etc. Or by big business, general in public it can be used, but only with warnings and without legal rights from the results. Words can have a lot of meanings, and every human interprets a word a bit different...and a sentence can hold many meanings, some true, some false. Only detecting a lie, without telling there and how will have a lot of problems.
The first time I was watching Jurassic World, I was so surprised that they had built that entire amusement park on top of the old one after what happened. But hey, free market capitalism and people would pay to be there.
Humans reason the same way basically, it's all patterns basically, that's why some people's reasoning seems so far off. So you could say AI already does human reasoning, I think it's more a matter of exposure and experiencing and learning, and it seems that can increase an AI's reasoning ability.
Esperanto was really fascinating to learn about maybe in the future. It could be more optimized using AI but still it's cool that there's a modern language like that.
I am all in a new global language. Why not? It would be easy to translate from one language in the standard language and from there in the user language if needed. Writing science should be then always standard language etc. And humans get time to grow into it. Even if only AI use the language as a baseline, it would bring valid improvement. So, yes-of course :)
Oh man. If it was on Audible I would. I found it on Amazon and read the reviews. People are definitely giving it good reviews. If you ever find anything written on a blog about it like a summary or an opinion from it, I could cover that
Nothing predicted the future like Idiocracy, right after Jules Verne. Idiocracy predicted the crooks. They had to find the most stupid and horrenduous shoes for the movie and they found this small (back then) company. Now everybody is wearing that crap everywhere, unironically.
@@dylan_curious I think it's because of changing times and tastes. The movie has stayed with people more and more because, as the world and society changes (intelligence and critical thinking seem to have become more undervalued, for one), many have considered the film prescient or "ahead of its time." Makes me wonder how we reassess several concepts and memories we have when our environment changes. Also, how have you only just discovered this movie!?
This is good content. Dylan, you can probably divide this video into 5 smaller videos and triple the views on each one with the amount of work you put in! I don't even know how many times I've seen Lex Friedman's clips and somewhere in the middle I realize I've seen it before. Or Joe Rogan.
Don't believe anything they say about "the climate crisis!" If you take all of their predictions and claims of the climate crisis going back 30 years, you'll see that most of them were flat out wrong and the rest were highly exaggerated! 😂
5:11 when biology becomes a digital technology well then all of the advanced world can stop worrying about the low birth rates and demographic collapse. When the average lifespan can be measured in hundreds of years of vigor and health, we will need far fewer births in order to keep the population stable. It could be that even a .25 birth per average per woman will still be enough to have a growing planetary population if a woman could be alive for four or five hundred years.
07:37 I’m a firm believer that nothing should be born into captivity. Including the Woolly Mammoth. 🦣 Maybe initially, with the strategy of releasing into a reserve. But also, imagine what the Sabertooth Tiger would look like!
While many will probably wind up in zoos, I’ve heard that they’re talking about releasing them into the wild in Eastern Europe. They hope the mammoths will benefit the ecosystem and restore the habitat in the same way the reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone did.
I was going to make this exact comment. Zoo's served somewhat of a purpose through the 18th and 19th century for people to see and study animals from different continents. But to exist now, when we have cheap air travel, the internet, wildlife documentaries etc., zoo's are just animal cruelty IMO. So are circus animals. In the 90's I went to ONE zoo in DC and ONE circus and after what I saw, I never visited them again. The only purpose a "Zoo" (an animal reserve) can serve is to rehabilitate injured wildlife and release them back into the wild, or to reproduce endangered species to sustainable numbers, again to release them back into their natural habitats.

Thanks brother, glad you used my comment for the song. 😎👍
The middle is found in nature, literally
A lot of People don’t realize how recent the mammoth extinction was. The Egyptians were well established by then and the Greeks were just getting started. I am all for bringing back things like the mammoth, dodo, and Tasmanian tiger. Undo some stupid things humans did.
Yeah, it makes sense if it's gone because of our changes to planet. What's your thoughts on bringing back the megalodon shark? It's not nearly as old as the dinosaurs, but it did go extinct before humans.
@@dylan_curious I am guessing it would completelly bork the food chain. Unless we keep it in a big assed aquarium.
21:04 it does raise some interesting questions about the two-tiered society however I think it was Ray kurzweil who also pointed out that when you talk about smartphones for instance back in 2005 they were not very accessible they were very expensive now near 2024 you can get them for as cheap as $30 and access to the internet of course and you can get the chat function for zero cost if you go to Bing and use co-pilot and better information and computing is going to become less expensive once again in the future and then once biology is digitized well then anytime something becomes a information technology will then it starts declining up cost.
So in short the rich will always have better stuff cuz they can afford it but that hopefully what will happen is that all the stuff that's considered insanely good that this moment in time will be insanely cheap in another 15 years.
What tool was used for the dancing french fries and pushroom tree pls ❤🙏
Unfortunately, I don't know. The people dancing is another video that's over laid under the french fries somehow but I don't know what tool they are using.
26:32 Hm what happened that led LLMs astray from their beginnings as automatic translators, with concepts stored in the same relative shapes regardless of the language?
Random thought about latent spaces: don't you think it's interesting how in our dreams we cant read or tell the time, and similarly ai models struggle with producing text? Maybe dreaming is like exploring our own latent space?
Yes, I do find it interesting! I really think there might be some parallels to back propagation or loosening the constraints or something like that going on.
It is also true that you cannot say your full name while dreaming without waking up! Maybe the part of the brain that we call ourselves by labeling that part with a name is somehow related to reading and our perception of time.
It's just a guess of course. But often times functionalities in the brain are often adjacent to one another if they share commonalities.
Lmao that’s not what mushrooms like at all😂
I don't know. I have been watching youtube videos that clame to show what different drugs are like. It's been a trip.
As for the generational adoption, I actually looking into Gen Alpha (born 2010-2024) habbits.
They live a lot on social video games/social VR and there for a very creative, don’t always tend to be human based avatars and world build. So, they could be better Zero principle thinkers and when biological engineering happens, they will modify into all sorts of new entities, possibly.
Oh my gosh... I will need to take some time to digest that comment. You're probably right, but if they grow up, thinking about biological entities the way I did digital entities that would really be a different perspective on life.
@@dylan_curious yeah, I had a long convo with my GPT about it. It’s gonna, potentially, get really weird. I’m Gen X so I was there as the internet came into fruition, millenials grew up with the iPhone and the internet already in place, Gen Y grows up with iPhones, VR, Web3 and AI coming into mass scale fruition, I’d guess Gen A grows up with VR and AI at scale, and still watched Web3 grow and AR come into mass scale
bob Dylan - you're making me smarter. That Bee thing is important, good you mentioned it.
A lie detector could to a lot..in the congress, etc. Or by big business, general in public it can be used, but only with warnings and without legal rights from the results. Words can have a lot of meanings, and every human interprets a word a bit different...and a sentence can hold many meanings, some true, some false. Only detecting a lie, without telling there and how will have a lot of problems.
You are correct to think about language
Maybe it's even got some hidden clues in there to point to aspects of consciousness.
It’s like we totally didn’t learn anything from Jurassic Park. AI seems enough to handle without Wooly Mammoths wandering around too.
Good grief 🤪
The first time I was watching Jurassic World, I was so surprised that they had built that entire amusement park on top of the old one after what happened. But hey, free market capitalism and people would pay to be there.
Or any of the Ai risk movies... we just go "neat, lets do that."
Humans reason the same way basically, it's all patterns basically, that's why some people's reasoning seems so far off. So you could say AI already does human reasoning, I think it's more a matter of exposure and experiencing and learning, and it seems that can increase an AI's reasoning ability.
31:27 Esperanto!!!
Esperanto was really fascinating to learn about maybe in the future. It could be more optimized using AI but still it's cool that there's a modern language like that.
i have new word for this language BIF : butt in the front
Come on humans as batteries 😂😂😂 when you can have fusion?
I am all in a new global language. Why not? It would be easy to translate from one language in the standard language and from there in the user language if needed. Writing science should be then always standard language etc. And humans get time to grow into it. Even if only AI use the language as a baseline, it would bring valid improvement. So, yes-of course :)
the screen transition you do where the scene rotates is hard to look at
I can chill out on that one. Thanks for the feedback.
@Dylan - Read the book Technofix. Very interesting take on past a future technology.
Oh man. If it was on Audible I would. I found it on Amazon and read the reviews. People are definitely giving it good reviews. If you ever find anything written on a blog about it like a summary or an opinion from it, I could cover that
Idiocracy wow yeah 100% believe we are headed that way.
I guess we will all end up like perpetual children, and AI can take care of all of us?
@@dylan_curious Or AI might shake us off this path.
positive language.
Nothing predicted the future like Idiocracy, right after Jules Verne.
Idiocracy predicted the crooks. They had to find the most stupid and horrenduous shoes for the movie and they found this small (back then) company. Now everybody is wearing that crap everywhere, unironically.
Why do you think the movie performed poorly in theaters? But now is blowing up? I loved it and only heard of this year?
@@dylan_curious I think it's because of changing times and tastes. The movie has stayed with people more and more because, as the world and society changes (intelligence and critical thinking seem to have become more undervalued, for one), many have considered the film prescient or "ahead of its time." Makes me wonder how we reassess several concepts and memories we have when our environment changes.
Also, how have you only just discovered this movie!?
Reminder: Science-fiction stories don't predict anything.
I think the term you were looking for is "terminal race".
Oh that dose sound very “David Shapiro” meaning it terminates? Like a race to a final point?
@@dylan_curious Directly into the singularity 🙂.
Like the videos except for the twisting cuts between items 😳😳. Left, right, right, left.. I'm feeling sick.
Ok. I will tone it down. Thanks for the feedback.
Thanks!
Wow thank you! 🙏 Super Thanks, like this, are a great signal to the algorithm and mean a lot to me!
So things are so bad now there are billionaires becoming GPU scalpers....
Does this mean Dylan communicates through dancing and pheromones?
Yep. That’s how I get so much done.
Dyliiiii
My nickname in elementry school was Dyl-pickle.
How you miss iRobot?? That took place in 2035
good video
I've never done mushrooms. 😅
Nah he's done mushrooms and more. He's way too laid back to try to pull that b******* off
Pre-crime is already in use. 🤫
I hope not. But maybe.
You are, literally, describing Esperanto. Check it out!
Wow, I was well over 100 years too late with that idea.
This is good content. Dylan, you can probably divide this video into 5 smaller videos and triple the views on each one with the amount of work you put in! I don't even know how many times I've seen Lex Friedman's clips and somewhere in the middle I realize I've seen it before. Or Joe Rogan.
Pops just got diagnosed with cancer, hope AI will have a cure for all cancer soon.
I do think the future medicine is going to be very different but it’s always sad when somebody gets diagnosed. Sorry, wishing him my best.
@@dylan_curious Thanks but it's terminal and spread everywhere, he's a goner.
Wow that's incredibly! This changes absolutely nothing! 😂
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Back at ya!

Don't believe anything they say about "the climate crisis!" If you take all of their predictions and claims of the climate crisis going back 30 years, you'll see that most of them were flat out wrong and the rest were highly exaggerated! 😂
5:11 when biology becomes a digital technology well then all of the advanced world can stop worrying about the low birth rates and demographic collapse. When the average lifespan can be measured in hundreds of years of vigor and health, we will need far fewer births in order to keep the population stable. It could be that even a .25 birth per average per woman will still be enough to have a growing planetary population if a woman could be alive for four or five hundred years.
One must account for human nature, profits over all else. Rampant capitalism demands free labor.
Too much of your negative opinion is seeping in. - Otherwise very good 😉
I am a doomer deep down, trying to keep it suppressed.
Know who makes good ai music videos?
... me... seriously.
I agree. You last video was dope.
07:37 I’m a firm believer that nothing should be born into captivity. Including the
Woolly Mammoth. 🦣 Maybe initially, with the strategy of releasing into a reserve.
But also, imagine what the Sabertooth Tiger would look like!
While many will probably wind up in zoos, I’ve heard that they’re talking about releasing them into the wild in Eastern Europe. They hope the mammoths will benefit the ecosystem and restore the habitat in the same way the reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone did.
@@Nobddy Cool!
I was going to make this exact comment. Zoo's served somewhat of a purpose through the 18th and 19th century for people to see and study animals from different continents. But to exist now, when we have cheap air travel, the internet, wildlife documentaries etc., zoo's are just animal cruelty IMO. So are circus animals. In the 90's I went to ONE zoo in DC and ONE circus and after what I saw, I never visited them again. The only purpose a "Zoo" (an animal reserve) can serve is to rehabilitate injured wildlife and release them back into the wild, or to reproduce endangered species to sustainable numbers, again to release them back into their natural habitats.
@@RodsFromGod_26 Agree with you on everything.
