I disagree with Eliezer’s tweet, primarily because I worry if we actually have to shutdown AI, than this incident will definitely haunt us, as we were the boy who cried wolf too early.
OK, but we’ve been in that world where people have cried wolf too early at least since The Hacker Learns to Trust, where Connor doesn’t release his GPT-2 sized model after talking to Buck.
There’s already been a culture of advocating for high recall with no regards to precision for quite some time. We are already at the “no really guys, this time there’s a wolf!” stage.
Just saw that Eliezer tweeted this petition: https://twitter.com/ESYudkowsky/status/1625942030978519041
Personally, I disagree with that decision.
Me too, and I have 4-year timelines. There’ll come a time when we need to unplug the evil AI but this isn’t it.
