One trouble is that that is essentailly tacking mind enslavement on to the WBE proposition. Nobody wants that. Uploads wouldn’t volunteer. Even if a customer paid enough of a premium for an employee with loyalty modifications, that only rolls us back to relying on the good intent of the customer.
This comes down to the exact same arms race between friendly and ‘just do it’ . With extra ethical and reverse-engineering hurdles. (I think we’re pretty much stuck with testing and filtering based on behavior. And some modification will only be testable after uploading is available)
Mind you I’m not saying don’t do work on this, I’m saying not much work will be done on it.
I think we’re going to get WBE’s before AGI.
If we viewed this as a form of heuristic AI, it follows from your argument that we should look for ways to ensure friendliness of WBE’s. (Ignoring the ethical issues here.)
Now, maye this is becasue most real approaches would consider ethical issues, but it seems like figuring out how to modify a human brain so that it doesn’t act against your interests even if is powerful and without hampering its intellect, is a big ‘intractable’ problem.
I suspect no one is working on it and no one is going to, even though we have working models of these intellects today. A new design might be easier to work with, but it will still be a lot harder than it wil seem to be worth—as long as the AI’s are doing near human level work.
Aim for an AI design that’s easy enough to work on saftey that people actually will work on safety… and it will start to look a lot like SIAI ideas.
Moody set it as a condition for being able to speak as an equal.
There is some time resolution.
Albus said heavily, “A person who looked like Madam McJorgenson told us that a single Legilimens had lightly touched Miss Granger’s mind some months ago. That is from January, Harry, when I communicated with Miss Granger about the matter of a certain Dementor. That was expected; but what I did not expect was the rest of what Sophie found.”
11 minute TED talk is about instrumental rationality
“When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.”
Tell me from China.
That would make (human[s] + predictor) in to an optimization process that was powerful beyond the human[s]’s ability to steer. You might see a nice looking prediction, but you won’t understand the value of the details, or the value of the means used to achieve it. (Which would be called trade-offs in a goal directed mind, but nothing weighs them here.)
It also won’t be reliable to look for models in which you are predicted to not hit the Emergency Regret Button As that may just find models in which your regret evaluator is modified.
For example, a hat and a cloak may be a uniform in a secret society, to be worn in special circumstances.
I much like the idea of this being a standard spell, as that provides further cover for your identity.
They Guy Fawkes mask is the modern equivalent.
Almost any human existential risk is also a paperclip risk.
Foundations of Neuroeconomic Analysis
Without getting into the legal or moral issues involved, there is a “”“library””” ‘assigned to the island state of Niue’, it’s pretty damned good, and that’s all I have to say about that.
and secondly, a medievalesque public school is such a stereotypically British environment that one expects the language to match.
During the Revolution, Salem witches were considerably more adept at battle magic than those taught at the institution that had been sucking magical knowledge out of the world for the previous 600 years. They also had the advantage of being able to train in the open since most Puritans were self-obliviating.
It wasn’t until the 1890′s that the school returned fully to Ministry control after the retirement of Headmaster Teetonka. Over a century of American control left its mark on the language and culture of Wizarding Britain, unfortunately the basis of powerful aboriginal magics remains restricted by edict to the students of the Salem Institute, El Dorado, or the University of Phoenix®.
So does Dumbledore know that Snape is putting the Sorcerer’s Stone back into Gringotts?
by the time year one ends, she and Harry will be participating side by side against serious, life threatening issues.
Absolutely not.
Draco will be in between them.
A cheap talk round would favor CliqueBots.
That O only took off once other variants were eliminated suggests a rock-paper-scissors relationship. But I suspect O only lost early on because parts of it’s ruleset are too vulnerable to the wider bot population. So which rules was O following most when it lost/ against early opponents, and which rules did it use to beat I and C4?
Is there an easy way to change the logo/name?
It would be good to have a more generic default name and header, as this takes off there will be half finished sites turning up in google.
I will try to get a torrent up shortly (never created a torrent before)

Edit: am I doing this right? Will seed with fiber.
You should all attribute this event to my wishing for it earlier today.
Anecdote: I think I’ve had better responses summarizing LW articles in a few paragraphs without linking, than linking to them with short explanations.
It does take a lot to crosss those inferential distances, but I don’t think quite that much.
To be fair, my discussions may not cover a whole sequence, I have the opportunity to pick out what is needed in a particular instance.
