I don't want anyone talking about the dangers of nuclear war unless they built a nuclear weapon before
True in a scenario where a nuclear weapon hasn’t yet been invented, doesn’t exist, and its properties are undefined.
In that case, if anyone does ever figure out some safety reason for why AGI shouldn't be built, I guess you won't be hearing from them.
Correct. Hopefully any researcher who stumbles on the formula and sees the same problems does the right thing, which definitely isn’t to trust SV or the people on this forum with that kind of information.
Why are you on a thread about AGI then? No one has built it so it's automatically what you don't want.
You can discuss AGI without pretending to know what you’re talking about.
Look up who the author is. He helped coin and popularize the very term AGI, ran the AGI conference series for years, and his entire professional career is working this problem.
Well he’s probably not the man for the job then. If you focused on it for so long and don’t have it, you’re probably not gonna get it.
