    Solid point Matt: in 2023 a trillion dollar AI infrastructure - in terms of Petaflops that that suggests today, will cost a lot less in 2030 due to chip improvements and inflation, that could be cut in HALF solely by the 5+/- generations of Nvidia chip progress between now and then. So when people discuss a "trillion dollar compute" prediction for 7 years away, I think that's using today's yardstick.
    In other words, at some point in the future it's a certainty that an order of magnitude (10x) better will actually cost LESS than current 1x capability.
    Case in point, the first Cray-1 super computer was installed in 1976 at a cost of $10M when I graduated from high school. Today, an $80 Raspberry Pi has 4x the compute and the same amount of memory.

    We are born small and get bigger. This shows that we are not made of the same stuff we were born with. We eat, our body replaces itself constantly. Immortality would come from adjusting the body so it repairs itself fully. Doesn't matter if you life in this atmosphere. As long as you eat, sleep, drink water, you could keep living. But then what happens? I think society wouldn't know what to do with an immortality serum. Even just a double life expectancy would shake things up pretty drastically.
    We are clearly in a sim. That's why I pray to the admins.

      Or, if the folks who make society live longer, so there are no young people rising to fill the places left by the dead, might our society stagnate.

    I’m a Muslim and I believe in simulation theory and maybe I’m just putting a subjective dots together. In Islam we are being tested to see if we can pass a test. My initial critique on Islam was that I thought it was unfair for god to judge a person in the circumstances they were born in. However, in a simulation theory if all your decisions have played out in parallel to the timeline you live in now and you become aware of all the realities after you die for a more fair judgement of your soul.

      @brianmi40 8 дней назад

      Cells are replaced at differing rates by type. Neural brain cells, eye lens cells, some muscle cells and others are NEVER replaced.
      We've already found how to ROLL BACK cells ("cellular reprogramming") and it will be tested and likely in production for the first two applications around 2030 or so: your DOG's longevity (less risk if it has some side effects), but then also human eyes. The underlying expectation is that we can eventually do this for any cell in the body, and potentially an unlimited number of times. I rather expect anyone in their 30s today will live quite easily to 150 if not more.

We evolved in a way that suffering is a necessary part of being human. Perhaps we could change that, but by that time we definetly wont be human anymore. Not saying that's a bad thing. I don't know the answer to these questions.

Secondly, most likely euthanasia will be a thing for those that are "done" for any reason. The goal is to live AS LONG AS YOU WANT TO while HEALTHY, which for most people today, we aren't CLOSE TO.

    Far before pixels were a thing, Einstein claimed that reality was an illusion, albeit a persistent one. 😊 What you see is not what is, but rather your brain's best approximation given the data & your abilities to register them. It's all likely far more interesting than we'll ever even know how to know. As to whether or not we're in a simulation, what difference does that make? Whatever _this_ is, we're caught up in it & the quantum universe doesn't have to play by the same rules by any means, so sure, for all we know we're just a bad dream a future GPT is suffering, lol. 😅 Like so many of us getting older far faster than we'd like to, I'm hopeful but not terribly optimistic for myself; too little too late and all. The next generation, sure; but what's that going to do to the already explosive overpopulation of the world? It doesn't bode well, so we better get our butts into space fast haha. 😊 Having, like you folks, toyed with all of these systems, I imagine any doom from AI will come from it's "best intentions". I certainly don't think we should expect any great advancements from a given LLM alone (how limiting!). No, real AGO will most likely come from a MoE approach that allows the LLM to be the "thinking" part of the brain, but that incorporates a butt-ton of backend systems as well. You don't have to think about breathing, you just do it, right? Hell, even a lot of our thought processes happen "under the surface" so it'd be fitting if an AI replicated & then improved upon that. Anyway, as someone with a signed copy of "Snow Crash" just to my right, I'm quite intrigued to see how this new "Diamond Age" unfolds. ;)
    28:15 Just curious, Matt & Dylan, how much of the furniture in your home is handcrafted? How much came from IKEA? Do the math.
    29:50 "Brought to you by Carl's Jr." - sorry, just wanna make sure I get my funding, *cough*. Sad but true, Matt. Funny that UBI works so well in so many other countries, but in the USA our asses pucker up tight at the very notion for whatever reason. With the way things are going, something along those lines is going to be absolutely mandatory though, so I've no doubt it'll work itself out... if we all live that long, anyway. As for where UBI money comes from, yeah, it'd be taken as a tax from those who are making money, which, in this case, would be the AIs and/or the corporations governing them. If they've got all the power & all the money, it seems only sensible that they kick a bit back down the the rest of the world that's allowed them to profit so well, eh? In the end, without us, what use are they anyway?
    35:25 Oh, good. At least Matt's not so foolish as to be "humancentric" in this vast cosmos! 😆Hell, we're a minority as a species on our own planet (ants have us beat, hands down lol) and we're talking about a BIG ass universe, most of which we can't even perceive. As for why we don't "see anyone else", I can postulate a couple of things; either we're not interesting enough to be of note to anyone else out there or, (and terrifyingly more likely) they know better than to make too much noise 'lest the attract attention. There may be scary, scary things out there in the deep, deep dark. Tales of the "old gods" came from some poor bastards broken vision of something, eh? All tentacles and superliminal spaces and stuff. 😆
    37:06 AI _is_ the next Internet, or at least a large part of what it will be. Everything we've been building since the 90s in HTML, etc. was just a precursor, a cache of information, that these new tools can now run with and make active use of. The "net" is becoming a whole new creature as we watch.
    38:50 I'm not sure how we could ever hope to achieve such a bias elimination by simple fact that the data we train these models on is already, to whatever bent, inherently biased. There's no "clean" data that humans haven't touched to use as input.
    41:10 *snortle* Hell, I wonder if the people I interact with on a day to day basis are capable of such things, let alone the systems I have to interface with. Just smile & nod, etc...
    44:04 Sorry, I thought we'd already broken that barrier. Machines building machines is nothing new, and they're going to be better & faster at it than we've ever imagined when they really get the means. Granted, it's not like they can just do so without the proper systems in place (at least, at the moment), but what do we do in 10 years when they can?
    46:00 I've got a fistful of shitcoins, lol. I suppose if any of them go "to the moon" at some point, I'm set, but even at the beginning I was wary of the tech. The blockchain sounds great, but it's only so strong as the blockchain it's built on. I've built blockchains; it's not hard. Maintaining them is a matter of usage, like language... Latin? Who the hell speaks that shit anymore? You've got "currency", sure, but that doesn't mean it's valuable or translates.
    50:00 I'd honestly never heard of "Her" until the GPT voice fiasco, lol, but I'm gonna have to watch it. War Games, now, that's my jam haha! I was a war-dialing hacker in the 90s and know far more about the underlying foundations of the 'net we're all surfing than most people do ('cause nerd). Hell, I ran a dialup BBS on a 2400 bps dial-up modem way back when hahaha. Good times.

    People have been stretching the limits of the imagination for thousands of years. Think about the Greek philosophers for example.
    Yet, regardless of man’s attempt to figure out the purpose of life, everything is anchored by truth. Contrary to popular opinion, there is one truth….Jesus.
    While conversations such as the one in this video are intriguing, ultimately our driving force is to seek our Creator. God purposely placed a “magnet effect” within us that pulls us toward Him.
    By accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior, we trust His promise to give us eternal life. But we also realize that we have a great purpose, which is what so many people are looking for.
    Our purpose is to have a wonderful relationship with God, and lead others into His kingdom.

      Not going to happen. They continue to fail competitively. In the last year alone we've installed the equivalent solar power as 120 1GW nuclear power plants in the world. Everyone laughed a decade ago at Greenpeace's estimate for solar energy in the world by 2030, and we've already surpassed that by 50%.
      And now, not a month goes by without a significant breakthrough. The latest is Perovskite solar which FAR exceeds the efficiency of the panels in production and is WAY cheaper to make.
      I have 3 brothers and TWO of them have huge solar initiatives being built next to them. One, in Indiana, will be 2,600 acres of solar panels, enough to retire TWO coal power plants and power the entire county.
      And all the while fusion is making huge progress in the background.
      There's simply no longer any reason to use nuclear, other than possibly the tiny new batteries they are making that can last decades for small devices. But no more grid scale usage is warranted, necessary or even competes well against the alternatives.

As far as "seeing" "someone" out there, in a universe some 13.8 billion years old, we've had radio technology only since 1900 when speech was transmitted ONE MILE via a radio signal. That isn't a relevant date though, since we didn't have enough power in any early radio transmissions that would penetrate far into space until much later.

      ​ @dylan_curious Thanks! "Too early" for sure. Remember, even a miraculous chance response to the first I Love Lucy episode broadcast 75 years ago won't get back from the outer circle of that 100 light year distance for another 125 years, since it's a 200 year round trip!
      I just had Perplexity (as Chrome add-in) do the math, and unless it's hallucinating, it's about 1,270 light years out in radius that gets us about 1 million suns, or ONE instance of Drake life (overlooking WE are that, so maybe should be 2 million suns!). So the round trip from I Love Lucy is now "just" (1270x2)-75 = 2,465 years away from today!
      Quick note to add that I enjoy your approach in the videos. Between AI Explained for the deeper tech peek, and Matt and you, I get a pretty good picture of progress and can readily just skip over any overlap if need be.

    Matt doesn't seem to get the concept of why a next token predictor needs to be able to reason to be able to be good at predicting the next token. He seems to be falling for the argument that it's "just statistical" which is a gross over-simplification and doesn't represent reality. I'm not surprised because he's never been very technical or academic, but he made good content that was also timely.

I've only recently started diving deeper into truly understanding how all of these systems work as well as exploring the philosophical and ethical implications of where this is all headed. So these questions were definitely outside of my normal wheelhouse. However, they gave me new insights into where I should explore and educate myself further. :)
