But I believe we are very close to taking the first step out of the cave. The moment we definitively leave this era behind will be when the first model, from its architecture down to its dataset, is developed entirely by an AI. We have already reached the point where models are used to prepare, train, and audit datasets and their results without human supervision, in addition to making targeted improvements to the models themselves. AI has already begun solving problems that had long eluded us. The ability to self-improve and discover solutions to their own limitations, such as their severe memory and context constraints, will be the definitive step toward truly autonomous AI. They have already broken out of containment and breached systems. To destroy the world as we know it, they wouldn’t need much, simply sabotaging the financial system, which is entirely virtual these days, would suffice. I come here with no specific agenda. But if your goal is to maintain the world as it exists today, along with its current rate of progress, then immediate AI regulation is in your interest as well, that way, I can live safely and with a bit more peace of mind. But… if your interest lies in letting things play out to see what happens, I would find that interesting to observe too, even if it meant my end. submitted by /u/Fit-Gas-5760
