Hi. I am not an evangelist -- I'm quite certain it's going to kill us all! But I would like to think that I'm about the closest thing to an AI booster you might find here, given that I get so much damn utility out of it. I'm interested in reading, I probably read too much! would you like to suggest a book we can discuss next week? I'd be happy to do this with you.
If you're "quite certain it's going to kill us all", then you are extremely foolish to not be opposing it. Do you think there's some kind of fatalistic inevitability? If so… why? Conjectures about the inevitable behaviour of AI systems only apply once the AI systems exist.
