The response to his paper in the video seems to imply that, at least in the paper, he is more explicit about AI lacking the requirements of consciousness.

“An investigator from the San Francisco Public Defender’s Office lawfully served a subpoena on Mr. Altman because he is a potential witness in a pending criminal case,” spokesperson Valerie Ibarra said in a statement to SFGATE.

In a post on X, the group wrote that one of their public defenders had managed to serve Sam Altman with a subpoena, requiring him to testify at their upcoming trial. They explained that the case involves their previous non-violent demonstrations, including blocking the entrance and the road in front of OpenAI’s offices on multiple occasions.

“All of our non-violent actions against OpenAI were an attempt to slow OpenAI down in their attempted murder of everyone and every living thing on earth.”

So it’s not because he’s being prosecuted.

I could also see the response to the bubble bursting being something like “At least the economy crashing delayed the murderous superintelligence.”

The glasses also support prescription lenses along with transitional lenses that automatically adjust to light.

Actual prescription lenses or generic supermarket lenses?

Now, Talukdar thinks we’re only one year away from experiencing a holodeck ourselves.

Very skeptical indeed.

Give it a year or so and they’ll both pretend that this never happened.

Suno might, but apparently the contract is just with some person who is using Suno to help create this, not Suno itself. So what incentive does Suno have to keep the voice? They didn’t sign the 3 million dollar contract. They’re not getting any money out of this deal.

Edit: though there’s probably not a deal at all, so there’s that.

So…

What happens if Suno updates their software and “Xania Monet” is no longer possible? What happens if someone finds out what the seed for “Xania Monet” is and makes their own songs with it?

A bit odd to start out throwing shade at the Segway considering that the concept has been somewhat redeemed with e-bikes and e-scooters.

TBF I basically had the same concerns about how useful my comment was, so it’s not like I think calling me out on it was a bad thing.

Fair enough. I acknowledge that I made a mistake, here.

TBF it’s probably just a “me” thing. I don’t know how much stock you want to put in that.

“We believe that in the near future half the people on the planet will be AI, and we are the company that’s bringing those people to life”

This quote is just… something.

Is the plan to literally create 8 billion podcasts in the near future? This company doesn’t think that might be a tad excessive?

From what I’ve read (granted from other reviews), the limit would be the equivalent performance of 8 4090s. Which means (assuming we believe Nvidia’s claims of 3352 AI TOPS for the 5090 vs the 1321 AI TOPS for the 4090) that you couldn’t possess more than the equivalent of 3 5090s. Then that keeps going, so.

Same here, I’ve never actually seen the term “clanker” be used in reference to a person using the AI, but the AI itself. Which to me was analogous to going to an expensive bakery and accusing the bread of ripping you off instead of the baker (or whoever was setting prices, which wouldn’t be the bread).

If there was any sort of op going on (which I don’t think there is), I’d guess it would be from the AI doomers who want people to think of these things as things with enough self-awareness that something like “clanker” would actually insult them (but, again, probably not, IMO).

Also, all this would do is change the processing from GPU to CPU. Microsoft commissions AMD, Nvidia or Intel to create a technically-not-a-GPU CPU and just have a computer that uses GDDR instead of the standard DDR.
