Most alcohol deaths are from drunk driving by peaceful people. Yes, psychedelics will causes a few violent delusional states in some people. Can't help that.

@yetineti All AGI means to me is a chatbot which can do everything a human mind can do with language.

I don't know what effect this has on AGI.

@Gennadiy1981 I don't know. It's so rare that we have too little data to make conclusions.

I was talking about murder. Of course lots more lesser stupidities will occur too.

Most people are quitters

How suspicious that 300 years of slavery as histroical context might play a role here.

We don't need a complete mapping of the brain. Just an understanding of core features of neural networks. Transformers and back-propogation are two such features. We just need to discover more like that.

@questionreality If you gaslight me any more I will ban you.

@Bandman Critique me all you want. Makes no difference in the end.

You don't understand what omniscience means. God is such a profound thing that it doesn't understand itself.

Don't exaggerate my claim. I never claimed to know everything in detail. You cartoonishly expect me to know everything. Are you kidding? I spent 10 years telling you how difficult this work is and you still don't get it.

Hence I said 20-50 years.

That's because you are willfully uneducated about the news facts: Trump certainly is a racist. This is not my opinion but a matter of public record. As if it wasn't totally obvious.

You still hung up on that?

There is no contradiction. Intelligence is a huge spectrum. Trump is dumb relative to Putin or an academic person. But Trump is a master at bullshitting. It doesn't take much intelligence to do racist dogwhistles. Dumb right-wingers have done that forever. They do it instinctively, not through any great genius. They can't be racist directly because it would end their careers. Even Trump cannot be racist directly. He can't walk out and say the N word. But he can dance around it. I was wrong and I got no problem admitting it. I was wrong in assuming that Americans were smarter than they are.

Sure

I don't see this as a problem at all. I'm confident its possible to make a brain in a vat with no body. Of course it won't be identical to an embodied human, but it will still have AGI. Current LLMs also change as they learn. I don't see that as a problem. All that is needed to create AGI is to copy the abstract structure of the human neural network. The problem is that this structure is not yet known or understood.

@Joshe Well said!

That would really depend on how he behaves with me. I am unsure.

I am doing a lot of understanding of human behavior and survival. Profound videoes coming soon on that.

Trump is not dumb when it comes to doing conartisry. He is crafty like the devil he is. There is no leftist contradiction here. We have called Trump a racist conartist since 2015 and he has not disappointed us in that regard. People doubt me when I call Trump the Devil. But devilry is not dumb, it is intelligent. So devilry perfectly describes Trump's actions. That's why I call him that, not because I hate him.

No, I am not getting any more political. My goal is understanding. If anything I have gone too political.

Sweet! Good work!
