No I'm just it as an analogy. Not all Turing machines are universal. What were going through now could maybe be likened to what it would be like for a Turing machine to encounter a universal Turing machine for the first time. For all its life this fictitious Turing machine has encountered other non-universal Turing machines and have simply incorporated them into their own process. When they then encounter their first universal Turing machine they would possibly not be too concerned since each time before they have always just been able to use the new machine to make themselves more productive. However, this time it's different. My point is just that while it may very well have been true in all of history that new tools have just made us more productive than before rather than fully replace us, this won't be the case for AGI. It's not just another tool we can add to our arsenal but instead something than can subsume us entirely much like how a universal Turing machine can emulate any other Turing machine. |
