Humans will still be the bottleneck. I kind of agree to that. Because in the end it is humans who will perceive the tasks, they can’t have super-intelligence if none of the people who work with it are even intelligent.
Guys, learning is going to be quite critical. The past couple of years have changed the way we perceive learning. I think we are getting into a trap of outsourcing the thinking and eventually learning to LLMs, which is looking a bad direction, and the turn needs to be as steep as possible to get back on track.
“GPT-3 has been out for six years; GPT-4 for three; and none of that has happened. Even in the outsourced customer service sector, the lowest-hanging fruit on the automation tree, we’re just not yet seeing mass layoffs due to AI. I’ll be frank in telling you that this has been a huge surprise to me. (And to others.) There is change, but it is gradual; it looks more like standard technological diffusion than a tsunami of replacement. And we should think seriously about why this has been the case.”
This quoted paragraph gives me hope to continue learning more.
“people have responded by spending much more time coding than they used to, because the latent demand for software is so enormous.1“
This I must say is true again.
“If we don’t need jobs, we’ll still invent them”
Yeah! That is the spirit, that is the mindset people need to inculcate, and not panic or get lost in the existential dread. I am saying this to myself, because written words have power over vague mind conversations.
Its going to be fine. Humans will live or die, either ways, it doesn’t even have a 0.000000001 % or 10^-100000000000000000 effect on the universe.
