A letter calls for policymakers to do more to understand and respond to potential disruptions from artificial intelligence.
A letter calls for policymakers to do more to understand and respond to potential disruptions from artificial intelligence.
Just to be clear: you think it’s the AI skeptics whose views are faith-like, and you give me an appeal to authority to back that up?
Your OG contribution:
I pointed out that I am posting a short simple statement backed up by hundreds of impressive people, including over a dozen Nobel Laureates.
Your response:
So I listed their names and asked for how, specifically, these are the “worst people”.
How do you come to that conclusion? Is it by virtue of the fact that they have Nobel prizes? Or because they signed the statement? If the latter, which, at least, of the 3 points do you disagree with, and why?
Are you this reflexively contrarian with everyone, or just me personally? Just curious
There is no Nobel prize in economics; the award you’re referring to was created long after Nobel’s death and has been “awarded” to many reactionaries including Milton Friedman. If someone criticized the idea that the social responsibility of corporations is to maximize profit and someone else responded by pointing to Friedman’s fake award, it would have about as much merit.
