Reply to comment by Circlemadeeverything in UN says AI poses 'serious risk' for human rights by Circlemadeeverything
I actually kind of agree. Transformer architecture isn't the complicated part, it's the nueral networks held by large companies and governments which are very expensive. It's easy to see such tech remaining in the hands of the powerful, but I'm not convinced that's going to be the case in the near future.
There are already proven examples of this technology being completely open source. Stability AI is already leaps and abounds ahead of DALLE-2 for example.
When GPT and chatbots get nerfed, it will drive more people to seek out open source options. DALLE-2 is a locked out system and will likely be a payed platform, yet stable diffusion is open source and utilises a users own backend. I'm not sure big corps will be able to keep up.
However, my concern is the sophistication of the nueral networks that are no doubt classified, most definitely in the hands of government and military.

Makes me wonder how adept the massively-parallel machines the NSA uses to crack encryption are when repurposed for training LLMs and other neural nets.
Or heck, if they secretly have a functioning quantum computer, there's probably some pretty crazy capabilities when combined with transformers/etc.
(I had a link to an article about quantum transformers, but the auto-mod ate it)

Nefarious groups seeking military advantages is pretty terrifying.
And her would a.i. expose their plans on the fly? It’ll be a very interesting movie we are in.
