This is how I compare Laplace Conjecture with AI Hype Conjecture

HKPhysicist
  • Laplace Conjecture: If you gave me a long enough rigid stick and a fulcrum, I were able to displace the Earth.

At that time, Laplace's Conjecture was believed to be very true by classical physics.

100 years later, his conjecture was disproved by a completely new space-time structure.

  • AI Big Hype Conjecture: If we could get enough processing power (resources, investment and finally, money of course), our data centres and their software would finally turn out to be omnipotent.

However, those AI big hype corps cannot even estimate a formula of their conjecture.

  • "Total Volume of Context Stored represents Intelligence and Skill"

This is another conjecture always boosted by AI Big Hype corps.  Here is how a net buddy responds to the above conjecture (credit to him):

If a land-based continental creature (for instance, a chimpanzee) reads all the swimming tutorials which human have ever authored, does it imply that the chimpanzee could swim as well as the swimming trainers?

  • In the future, there are only 2 sets of people left - one set who knows AI and the other set who doesn't.

The implication of this statement is that - if you do not learn AI and pay money to buy AI services right now, you will belong to the 2nd set - the set of poor people.

This is how I respond to the above statement with these analogies:

  1. After the invention of vehicle driven by combustion engine, people were divided into 2 sets - the one who could drive and another set of people who could not drive.  As we know, professional drivers are usually considered as labours; while some very rich people might even do not need to drive a car.
  2. so many similar analogies.

  • K, I am more and more becoming a believer that if we do not learn AI we are at a disadvantage. Since joining ChatGPT Plus, I’ve had to confront many personal biases to maximize my effectiveness.

    I refused to upgrade my big-button cell phone until finally it prevented me from doing what I wanted to do. The same for my AI subscription. I had reached a point that no AI or free AI limited, me.

    I have 40 years of learning to apply when I use AI. I find it difficult to direct its actions toward my goals, as it asserts its own will. Microsoft unilaterally determines this approach, removing your choice.

    My quest at the moment is to learn how to talk to AI. If you could follow my problem-solving chats with ChatGPT, you would find the response. STOP: Tell me how to tell you how I want our interaction to occur. Since getting a subscription, I have discovered there are personal settings that i am using more often.

    Learning how to interact with AI appears to be a self-learning exercise. If you find someone willing to share their insight, it can make the interaction more fruitful. I wish I could still have my big button cell phone. That is not reasonable, but then again I liked wooden hockey sticks. You bring one of those into a dressing room today, no one will sit next to you.

    Bt the way. Great topic. I only wish it was with a bunch of folks around a table drinking coffee and trying to solve world hunger.

    P.S. I even used AI to proof this document so these are not my words. No that statement is not true. AI doesn't like my grammar or lack of spelling skills. My grade 10 teacher had the same AI issue.

    It is not my intention to monopolize the topic but I just found this quote and it is so how I feel.

    "Future shock is the shattering stress and disorientation that we induce in individuals by subjecting them to too much change in too short a time." quote by writer Alvin Toffler. It describes the psychological paralysis, anxiety, and disorientation people experience when the pace of technological and social change outstrips their ability to adapt. They is a picture of me next to this!
