I think he believes what he's saying. From his perspective AGI will be great, and a lot of people think that AI and quantum computing will have a feedback loop where AI will help us create a better quantum computer which will make a better AI and so on...
Down here in the filth though, we're going to go through mass unemployment, rapid shifts in markets, loss of privacy due to increasingly sophisticated AI powered surveillance, and complete loss of our freedom of speech.
So, all that stuff probably will happen to people like him. Just not us.
Current "AI" is just LLMs. They don't need some crazy quantum supercomputer. They aren't improved by more processing power.
They need a ton of data to work at a basic level. There's no reason to think that future programs will just get better on their own. Especially if a lot of data is now LLM generated. They have no capacity to learn on their own through research.
The irony of repeating the exact same thoughts as every thread like this contains, about how because it's just a sophisticated "parrot" then it cannot be intelligent ๐
