There is already a host of research that "articulates concrete scenarios" of AI harm, so it really begs the question as to why these two don't consider any of that work valid that they think there is still "fog and uncertainty" 🤔
Had a great conversation with Yoshua Bengio. Both of us agreed that a good step forward for AI risk is to articulate the concrete scenarios where AI can lead to significant harm. More to come, and looking forward to continuing the conversation!

“Let’s say you’re a leader in this space. … Listen out carefully for who’s complaining about who’s not listening to them. That’s a first early signal that there’s work to be done from an empathy perspective.” – Phil Harvey (@CodeBeard) #ai #design 🎧: bit.ly/4334LwA

Curious to know of any decent demoscene and/or electronic music-production-related Mastodon servers. Cheers.

8. Fictions are quite literally then artificial dreams. Just as cooking allows digestion to take place outside the body, art allows us to benefit from dreams during the day. They are also more structured, and therefore more potent, than regular dreams, e.g., the monomyth

not quite dead, but definitely not getting the oxygen it deserves.
#AI "was meant to be a new multidisciplinary field of research that borrowed people and ideas from other areas, [...] in order to get computing machines to think in a way that matched or mimicked human-level thinking. That dream is dead." @sd_marlow
