> “Our opportunity now is to take those 900 million users and turn them into high-compute users,” Simo said, according to a partial transcript of the meeting reviewed by CNBC. “We’ll do that by transforming ChatGPT into a productivity tool.” Moloch strikes again! (for those who don't yet get the reference https://slatestarcodex.com/2014/07/30/meditations-on-moloch/) but seriously, we (or they) need to define what "productivity" actually is these days and in these contexts. is it to generate revenue for a company? is it to become a self-sufficient human? is it to educate the younger generations about what's true? is it to do science? is it to increase the efficiency of whatever task you're already doing (note that increasing efficiency would result in using less compute for the same operation lol)?
if we keep moving forward without sitting down and reorienting ourselves about a shared vision, given all the new things we now know since establishing our frameworks of social/economic organization, i fear that there will be a very bad outcome. |
