Reply to comment by AndromedaAnimated in Hype bubble by fortunum

I am explicitly stating my bias, as in I am a student under people who believe the singularity is far away. I am saying I am no authority because I don’t study singularity or AGI, a PhD or Professorship or other titles do not implicitly make you more qualified to talk about just any subject, maybe that is a problem that you project here.

Do the people above you also talk about an AI winter like you have been?

If so, your mentors are dumbasses.

I am just reading what you write. If I project or not is not of interest here. Please don’t try to divert the attention to me.

You don’t have to accept criticism or feedback.

But your post would have been much more interesting and also more believable if you didn’t state your authority.

And you did. You mentioned your professional field which is tied to the topic. You said explicitly that AGI is not going to happen and that most posts are factually wrong (and that is where I even start to smell a „pretend-scientist“ as in empirical science, there are working hypotheses, theories, but not facts - and even theoretical science prefers „axiom“ to „fact“).

You are sounding like an elitist who is no better than the people you criticise. Plus, you are getting the purpose of discussion wrong if you think saying something „factually“ wrong is a bad thing in a discussion. You don’t even provide ONE argument for what you are saying except you being in machine learning and you and your colleagues not talking about singularity.

You didn’t provide original thought here (I read sooo many posts like yours here lately), and also no interesting articles.

Jet you criticise the dreaming laymen on this sub.

Oh well. You don’t want feedback, then don’t take it.
