I can admit to being condescending. But the point is I'm also generally right. You may not make your living from programming but you associate your self with "intelligence" and likely programming and you refuse to believe an AI can ever be superior to you.
>It's not valid because it is vacuous. Technology generally improves. But it is the specifics and details that matter, they are the only thing that matters. Saying "AI will improve" is saying nothing useful.
Exactly. When I repeat well known common sense facts, I've essentially stated nothing useful to people who HAVE common sense. Common sense is obvious. Everyone has common sense. You do too. The question is why are you constructing elaborate arguments to try to predict a future not inline with common sense? The answer is obvious, you can't face the truth. Pride and emotion make you turn away from common sense.
>I think global thermonuclear war is a more likely disruptor in the rest of my lifetime than some AI nerd rapture.
That's an intelligent statement. How many nuclear bombs were dropped on civilians in your lifetime versus how many AI break throughs happened in the last decade? Again. Common sense.
>I am sorry that whatever schooling or training you had did not manage to explain that this style of rhetoric does nothing more than portray you as a condescending asshole.
Remember that movie bird box where John Malkovich was a total ass hole? Well he not only was an ass hole, but he was pretty much right about everything while being an ass hole. If everyone listened to him they would've lived. That's what's going on here. I'm saying ass hole things, but those ass hole things are right.
>You're just being a condescending twatwaffle since you are arguing with individuals in a forum of which you know nothing about. You clearly have no respect for others' opinions and feel the need to write walls of text to rationalize it.
It's easy to prove me wrong. Put my condescending ass in it's place by proving me wrong. Every ass hole gets off at being completely and utterly right. You can pummel my ass into oblivion by taking me off my high horse. Or can you? You can't because I'm right and you're wrong.
"How many nuclear bombs were dropped on civilians in your lifetime versus how many AI break throughs happened in the last decade? Again. Common sense."
If this is the apex of your reasoning the basis of your perspective is pretty easy to understand.
The problem here is that from your end, no reasoning was applied. You've said and proven nothing. You only have the ability to mount personal attacks because reason and logic are not on your side.
Let's skip to the main topic rather then address some small irrelevant detail about thermonuclear war: I'm right about AI, and you are wrong. And you fucking know it.
I feel like I'm being trolled by yet another deltaonefour, deltaonenine, ... sock puppet (there were a ton more that I don't care to remember). I could be wrong, don't really care. In any event you guys would probably get along, talk about entropy or something.
