Ai_004 – Bias, Ai’s Best Feature with Aleks Svetski

Today we follow up from #002 with Alek Svetski to get him back on and digging into the open, community project they are releasing, the Spirit of Satoshi. They are exploring the capabilities of LLMs in combination with a data store in scaling one-on-one education that explores a topic or idea through a lens of explicit bias. Can we instill a variety of genuinely different worldviews and perspectives into Ai from which to test our understanding of the world? Svetski thinks we can. Hope you guys enjoy this one!

Ai Read_000 – Google “We Have No Moat…”

“These contributions were pivotal in the image generation space, setting Stable Diffusion on a different path from Dall-E. Having an open model led to ⁠product integrations⁠, ⁠marketplaces⁠, ⁠user interfaces⁠, and ⁠innovations⁠ that didn’t happen for Dall-E. The effect was palpable: ⁠rapid domination⁠ in terms of cultural impact vs the OpenAI solution, which became increasingly irrelevant. Whether the same thing will happen for LLMs remains to be seen, but the broad structural elements are the same.”
~ Anonymous Google Employee

While I wasn’t sure whether I would bring the “read” format to this podcast, there was just too much great material to cover and I felt I would do a disservice if I didn’t make it available for the audience who wants to dive into this stuff with me fully, rather than be satisfied with a summary. So I felt the best option for a flagship read, was the article that finally tipped me over the edge to start Ai Unchained. A leaked document from a Google employee seeing the trends and compounding effects of the open source Ai movement, titled “We Have No Moat, and Neither Does OpenAI.” Get ready for a great read, and the shows first Guy’s Take…

Ai_003 – The Dark Side of Ai with Alex Lewin

Ai may be able to make us vastly more productive, far more creative, and orders of magnitude more dangerous. As Ai moves into the realm of creating hierarchies of tasks to accomplish larger goals, combined with the unparalleled scalability of its execution, a broad, self-spreading and malicious Ai becomes frighteningly more possible by the day. Like a wildfire burning out of control, what could be the consequences, how bad could a hypothetical scenario get, and what, if anything, can we do about it?
Don’t miss this incredible conversation with Alex Lewin, bringing a software development and cyber security perspective to the show, to shine a light on the dark side of Ai

Ai_002 – Bias & Truth in AI with Aleks Svetski

“This is the first time we’ve interacted with anything other than a parrot that can string together a coherent sentence. And it sounds stupid, but it’s actually true. So we are anthropomorphizing, we are projecting our own consciousness onto this thing, and we are immediately imagining Terminator, Minority Report, God knows what else we are imagining – the Ray Kurzweil’s of the world – we’re imagining that all of a sudden, that’s it, we unlocked it, basically we have discovered God. We did it. To me that’s such a mix of naivety, ignorance, and arrogance that it’s not even funny.”
~ Aleks Svetski
We have an awesome conversation kicking off episode 2 of AI Unchained today with Aleks Svetski, who is currently building a not-yet-public project in the AI world. He brings a very unique perspective that tries to bring back a bit of perspective to the imaginations gone wild on the world ending possibilities of AI. What is the truth of it? And can we instill “truth” in these machines? Can we make them “objective and unbiased?” Or is there something both inherently foolish and presuming in even the attempt of such a thing, that we can prevent making the same mistakes of the past. Don’t miss this crazy conversation.

Ai_001 – A New Frontier, with Jeff Booth

Welcome to the first episode of AI Unchained, a new show exploring how AI technology can be a means of empowering the individual, rather than a system of control, and all the tools and perspectives that enlighten that journey.
Our first guest is none other than Jeff Booth, the author of “The Price of Tomorrow” on the incredible deflationary force of technology and why our only choice is to embrace it, not fight it. If you are trying to make sense out of the change that is being unleashed, you do not want to miss this show. Welcome to AI Unchained.
