Why do you think everyone who works in AI agreeing not to release their models until ASI is realistic? The better and more realistic idea is more companies releasing their AI as open source.

You do need to keep in mind that the amount of time between some jobs being automated and ALL jobs being automated is huge.

A basic example is that automating at least parts of text based customer support is probably very close, but automating a plumber is very far away.

you really don't see the absurdity in what you're saying? seriously? how can you be that delusional? Ah yes, releasing a godlike AI on the world to replace all human labor... what could possibly go wrong?

Completely agree. LLMs will probably plateau at some point. The end game for that approach is very unlikely to be ASI, but will be something that can do most human jobs. If we don't have any additional approaches to pursue by that point, we're in trouble.

I absolutely think that slow take off is way worse for humanity than fast take off.

I think you are correct in at least spirit.

People have limited field of division. Between armies of bots on the internet and the million ways to get your dopamine off, a lot won't pay attention to it until it is a problem for them.

In practice, I hope that the pressure will still be high enough on the ruling class. Also imagine that AI available to all may even result in corporations having less of a competitive edge in some areas.

I was being a tad hyperbolic. To rephrase my argument, they shouldn't release any AI until it is capable of replacing all jobs rather than a subset. Because otherwise, the massive inequality caused by some large section of society losing jobs would lead to revolt.

Do you understand my argument now? Or are you just looking for what you view as easy pickings to let out your rage on those unfortunate enough to have you find their posts?
