@GaryMarcus There is a saying in Spanish that goes: "You can't blow and sip at the same time."

At the end of the day, I can use your arguments to dismantle your same own arguments. It's a weird kind of self-play, i guess.

@GaryMarcus Yes, I am going to use the arguments from this tweet of yours from 13 hours ago in which you say that AI has entered a period of diminishing returns, which is the opposite of your catastrophic vision from a year ago where you placed us 12 months later in an unrealistic point…

@DotCSV That was given as a plausible scenario; I still believe that could happen. Do you have some proof or strong argument that it cannot?

@GaryMarcus Usually, your opinions shift from 'AI capabilities are so overhyped, the bubble will pop soon' to 'Let me overhype this tech in the hands of bad actors'.

An example: AutoGPT

"I remember when AutoGPT was still hyped last week"

@DotCSV If the translation is correct, this is a serious misrepresentation both of my actual claims, and of the pause letter.

The statement in question engages in public discourse by discussing the potential risks associated with AI technology, specifically the impact of deep fakes. It raises concerns about the misuse of AI to create chaos, which is a relevant societal issue.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does not directly cause harm but raises a concern about potential harm due to AI misuse, which is a valid point of discussion in the context of AI ethics and safety. [+1]
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The statement respects the privacy and dignity of others as it does not target any individual or group but focuses on the technology itself. [+1]
  3. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The use of the rolling eyes emoji could be interpreted as dismissive or sarcastic, which might slightly undermine the promotion of understanding and empathy. [-1]
  4. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement engages in a form of criticism about the potential dangers of AI, contributing to a broader dialogue on the topic. However, the sarcastic tone might detract from constructive dialogue.
  5. Principle 6:
    I will use my influence for the betterment of society.
    The statement uses its influence to raise awareness about a critical issue concerning AI technology, aligning with the principle of using influence for the betterment of society. [+1]
