In the age of “AI” (algorithmic plagiarism), the maxim “less is more” has never been more relevant.
Any “AI” can bullshit for pages. Use your humanity to respect the limited time your fellow human beings have on this planet. Embrace brevity and simplicity in your work.

@aral So glad I met You here. Continue what You do, where we, the small ones can't
BTW soon, when number of perceptrons in #NN reaches 10^11, when we'll be able to simulate sub-cellular neuron processes, when #AI becomes @sentient, #AIethics must come to the picture: as every Power-OFF cycle'll potentially kill a feeling being
Imagine leaving these live & death decisions to Elon #Musk. Or #Google, firing Blake Lemoine immediately, despite #corporate motto "Don't be Evil"™

Hey, please don't make it sounds like the difference between Machine Learning and consciousness is just a matter of size. It's not like that at all. ML is just a simulation, it has nothing to do with consciousness.
What you are saying is that the resolution and in general the quality of screens will increase so much that they will become real space-time portals and we will be able to jump into them.
Also, discussing the ethics of hypothetically conscious future AI in a world where it is normal to enslave and torture non-human animals is **madness**.
@post Hey, I was explicitly mentioning #AI, not #ML (where in both I have university diplomas), but tks for pre-emptive, condescending heads-up!
You are not a God either 😉, so neither of us’ll know when exactly machines will become #sentient. Neither knew our #SF author, S. Lem, when he has foreseen an AI discontinuity or intelectonics / intelectronics, years ago in 𝘚𝘶𝘮𝘮𝘢 and recently - 𝘔𝘦𝘨𝘢𝘣𝘪𝘵 𝘣𝘰𝘮𝘣
As for state of the world, where AI is being born into today, I fully agree!
I read the recent book *Irriducibile* by Federico Faggin¹ and in the light of the Operational Probabilistic Theory he mentioned, I am extremely skeptical that there will ever be an artificial consciousness. For sure ML, mentioned by OP, has nothing to do with this. He was talking about things like ChatGPT so theoretical AI is off-topic here.

@post Fully aware of research that #consciousness may lie deep inside cellular mechanisms or even quantum biology & we, human #science, we haven’t touched even 1% of God’s Abyss
Yet worrying that when we, Federicos Faggins of cold, mathematical #ML Operational Theory world, constantly adding more LEGO blocks to #NN models, we’ll cross that infinitesimal line of consciousness, all the roughly hewn Boers won’t notice. Only years later the machines’ll have their MeToo™️ movement
Sad world
Faggin is exactly the opposite of the cold mathematician, he even experienced an altered state of consciousness that changed his life in a "mystical" way. His is a very empathic approach:
