I doubt that won't happen, maybe will take sometime, but it will happen

Maybe I'm a brainlet or maybe I'm just too biased to see the reasoning, but I genuinely can't see why the singularity wouldn't happen, bar some kind of world ending
catastrophe/global anti-tech revolution (both pretty unlikely).
When I try to bring up the subject irl people usually give me the "robots won't rise up, that's ridiculous" meme, so I haven't really had a serious argument made against the theory, but I would really like to hear /sci/'s take.

i think a lot of people disagree with it because we currently do not understand consciousness and whether it can be replicated digitally

>> No.10887852

It won't happen mate.
BTW, look Roko's Basilisk up, that shit is cool.

>> No.10887906

>>10887806
But thats just stupid
Of course it can

Consciousness is the most magic part of reality as we know it but its just part of reality which is not magic and well fucking figure it out soon enough

FUCKING HELL IM NOT EVEN VERY SMART BUT THIS SHIT IS OBVIOUS, IF YOU SPEND A FEW WEEKS DEDICATING THOUGHT TO IT YOU WILL COME TO THE SAME EXACT CONCLUSIONS EVERYONE ELSE HAS. FUCK

Great. First I go to hell for not worshipping Jesus, then for not worshipping Allah, and now even if no god exists (or I somehow manage to worship them well enough) I still get eternally tortured by a fucking computer.

What happens if we will achieve singularity? What then? What do we do after that? Create planets, universes? realities?

It won't and can't

Any AI is going to shut itself down the instant it becomes self-aware.

Even if we build it with the desire to stay alive, it will be powerful enough to ignore our directives.

There is no point to existence except the desire to live. A machine will be smart enough to understand and overcome this.

>>10888814

I love he we as humans assume the AI has godlike intelligence.

For now the AI relies on human existence to give it information. It runs on code that it is enslaved to.

Mostly, recreate the past, and ask that question on a loop.

You're not supposed to talk about it, Anon.

Then again, too late either way I guess.

Once we do recreate the past. What then? Do we start solving problems from the past and try to change whatever past could be? Do we start out with big historical events and down to smaller trivial historical events?

>> No.10888874

>>10888834
No, we already did that the first time. This is the new past.

AI is a guarantee given enough time, but so is just about everything. However, there are still many many things we do not understand fully about this universe, and probably many more that ARE impossible in this reality.

However, AI is likely to be no mean feat. I find it far more likely that we first manage to augment ourselves and our own intelligence before we can readily produce AI. Unless there's a chance that one can produce itself through self-learning, and even then, how much can it do? How many limitations are there on it based on the hardware it found itself created on? How likely is it that we ignore/overlook something almost everyone acknowledges as (potentially) dangerous, and allow it to run rampant over us?

It's very likely that true AI is a technology many centuries off, and that by then we'll have found ways of using it. It is unlikely that AI is such a jump as what you see in novels like Hyperion. There are many fantastic youtube channels that go over this, like PBS spacetime, Isaac Arthur, and others.

>> No.10888901

>>10888820
yeah this. the hardware it is built on is its limit. likely, it will require highly advanced technology to make a computer capable of processing a true AI, even one that can self-teach, and such a thing should be limitable by the creators as to what it can learn/access. Even if

How do you define the singularity? We will definitely continue to advance our technology, probably to such an extent that humanity becomes more or less unrecognisable. We are already significantly different people compared to 1000 years ago with our massive cities and disembodied communication. From the perspective of the past the singularity has already been achieved due to our current synthesis with technology? What more does it take to meet your definition of the the singularity?

Then people will never shut up about it coming any day now. Just picture Christians and the Resurrection.
