This machinery might lead us anywhere. Unfortunately, it seems more likely this will be a place we won't like.
Unless we, somehow, reintroduce conscious choice back into our systems.
That's why I care about AI and that's why I'm building Tetherware.

The evolution of life, and of the universe, is less and less driven by conscious choices, but by cold, mechanistic optimization formulas. Moreover, these are now mostly blackboxes, shaped largely by inhumane economic incentives and often being heartless as a result.

Now, it's getting worse and worse in terms of us, conscious beings, being able to ignore the algorithmic, mechanistic determination of what we see, what we consume, what we value.

Starting with machine learning recommending algorithms and such (hello @facebookaislop.bsky.social), it was suddenly not fully up to us to decide what's worth what. But it was still not really that invasive and we still had a lot of free choice.

I care about AI because it's the next thing that can determine the value of things. Up until 21st century it was almost exclusively us humans deciding what matters, what to give our time and attention to, what to live for. 🧵⬇️

You defined it so by claiming that science can not tell you anything about it / cannot prove its existence. I don't know where you're going with this unicorn-bullshit argumentation of yours, but if you think that the article I wrote is anywhere near the level of your unicorn – it simply is not.

How reimagining the nature of consciousness entirely changes the AI game Why physicalism fails to explain reality and how a framework where consciousness steers reality through quantum events can revolutionize AI safety and unlock tractable machine consciousness research.

This isn't just about preventing catastrophe. It's about reimagining what AI could become.

The deterministic approach we're taking now creates something fundamentally alien to how consciousness and life actually work. Quantum randomness isn't a bug – it might be the feature that makes alignment possible.

What we need is a shift in our metaphysical view of reality. This opens paths not only to new safety mechanisms, but potentially to fascinating new technology including human augmentation, consciousness uploading, or even new artificial lifeforms.

This would align AI with humans – and all life – on a fundamental level. It could make AI part of the self-regulating mechanisms that for billions of years have kept life on Earth in balance and harmony.

With 100s of billions now table stakes in the AI race, an outright ban seems impossible. The momentum is too great, the incentives too powerful.
What I propose in my newest article is something radically different: shifting from digital, deterministic AI to quantum-random non-deterministic AI.

GAMECHANGING APPROACH TO AI ALIGNMENT
The new book "If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies" by Eliezer Yudkowsky & Nate Soares confronts us with a distressing fact: machines smarter than us will inevitably trample us.
But their solution – ban AI research – isn't tractable. 🧵↓

towards. You simply assume that there is nothing beyond the physical reality which is observable by science, since you cannot access the information there. But you have no proof you can make that assumption.

that would affect or interfere with the model. So you ALWAYS include metaphysical assumptions, in ANY model of reality. The exact thing that you are mocking here – that you're not going to include anything except scientific observation in your model– is EXACTLY the logical fallacy the article points

Ok, but think about how science makes its models and predictions. You can only build a world model of reality as a whole – that means including the observable PLUS the unobservable. Any time when you build a model that's only based on scientific observations, you presume that there is nothing beyond

How one logical fallacy killed God, corrupted Science and now fuels the AI race Uncovering the dark reality behind science's flagship philosophy makes us question whether we actually want AI to have the same values as those who build it.

my best piece of writing so far

it unravels the fakeness of the story all "rational" humans are telling themselves

if you think science says God is unlikely to exist - please, read or listen to it

everyone should know life does NOT have to be a competition, a fight, or a struggle

How metaphysical beliefs shape critical aspects of AI development The connection between stark predictions like "everyone dies" and specific assumptions about reality like "the universe is dead by default" reveals critical influence of metaphysics over AI discourse.

We're launching a new publication "Phi/AI" bringing overlooked topics in AI to a wider audience – now live at the link below.
My first piece expains a crucial fact: in AI we can no longer rely on our "philosophy of science" – #physicalism – as the only logical belief about the nature of reality.

[opportunity] Comment on the US AI Action Plan A Request for Information by the US Office of Science and Technology Policy seeks input from interested public parties on actions that should be included in the AI Action Plan.

Tetherware is all about having the voices of the individuals shape our collective future.

And a great opportunity has presented itself to do just that – the US government issued a call for ideas for the US AI Action Plan.

Anyone can comment and add their bit - that's how we shape our future.

Imagine a ship full of aliens approaching Earth. Obviously, they’re more capable than us since they managed to get here.
They could be friendly, teach us great things and be amazing companions to live with. Or they could invade, dominate, enslave, probe...

These guys scored 88% on ARC-AGI with a humanlike cognitive architecture for less than $20 - and no one's talking about it? Can anyone tell me why that's not a huge deal? @davidjkelly.bsky.social

Tetherware #1: The case for humanlike AI What if giving AI a touch of human imperfection is exactly what we need to avoid dystopia?

Why subjugate an alien when we can nurture a soulmate? A leash breeds trouble, but a tether fosters trust and friendship. Let’s stop trying to force a “shoggoth” onto a leash and instead create AI rooted in our humanity – and explore the cosmos hand in hand.
