That’s not really how Grover’s algorithm works. It can find the correct preimage of a function with only O(sqrt(N)) calls to the function. It can’t find things in a list in less than O(N) time because it would take that long just to read the list elements into registers.

The algorithms behind the new NIST standards have mostly been known for a long time (since the 90s) but it took a while to refine them and be confident in their security.

Wtf are you talking about. I was comparing he results of the survey to the opinions on THIS sub, which are largely ASI before 2040 (check the survey posts if you don’t believe me). You are the one that fixated on 2060, which as I said is a meaningless divide in the data.

My point is that you made a completely vacuous statement. Take any set of data, pick the median and say “durrr I guess 50% of the people know something the other 50% don’t.” It means literally nothing.

Only if their lives continue to suck in the real world. I can’t imagine getting to ultra realistic VR with ASI and not also fixing our real world problems.

He lost like a hundred billion dollars buying Twitter on a dare basically. He tweets all day long, mostly yelling at random people. Do you think that is something a well-adjusted billionaire would do?

This sub is not a representative sample. Many people come her specifically to delude themselves to make them feel better about their lives. Think about people you actually know, in real life. Most people I know don’t even play video games, they are too busy living their lives. VR would make no difference to them.

Elon Musk is extremely dysfunctional. The richest man in the world and all he seems to care about is whether people on the internet like him or not.

If you think this is a danger it says more about you than it does the technology. Most people do not want to just sink into a comfortable, warm bliss for their lives.

Why do people do extreme sports, hiking, spelunking, diving, etc.? They pay money to be uncomfortable. To push themselves. It is part of human nature. VR is not going to eliminate that.

Hey look, I used the search bar for you:

Bro you are in this sub. There is a search bar at the top. Use it. I’m not talking about the random general internet, I am talking about right here where you purposefully came to.

Why do we have this same post every single day? Go back and read the many, many, many discussions that have already happened about this if you are really interested and not just karma farming.

Agree. It’s going to be a long time still before we have a robot that can navigate a persons house to find a problem with their plumbing and then successfully fix it without messing up a bunch of other stuff.

No, you just picked a random date 2060 as a cutoff because it was the 50% mark. On the whole, the vast majority (> 90%) predicted a date that is farther in the future than what the consensus on this sub is.

It's almost like they know there are a lot of unsolved problems. And they aren't as easily impressed by ChatGPT as normal people because they now how it actually works and what its limitations are.

Bill Gates, Larry Ellison, Michael Bloomburg and Warren Buffet have pledged to (and already started) give all their money away. Bill Gates has almost single-handedly eradicated polio around the world.

Anyway, none of these people are holding onto cash. They have investments in other companies, which if they just liquidated would, again, cause a lot of damage to those companies, their employees and the other investors. Those companies are doing something helpful to society or else they wouldn't be making money.

I think you are confused about what it means to be an ultra-rich billionaire. They are not sitting on billions of dollars of cash and just choosing not to use it to help people. They are “worth” billions of dollars because they own companies that are worth that much. The companies are doing things that are valuable to society, which is why they are worth that money in the first place.

Yes, Elon Musk could try to liquidate Tesla and use that money to feed the poor or whatever, but then nobody is making electric cars, thousands of employees are fired and lose their income/health insurance, research on battery tech stops, etc. It’s not clear this is even a net benefit.

You know you don’t have to make a post about every single prompt you give to ChatGPT, right?

That’s like saying that the sunlight goes to plants so we can’t use solar panels to capture it. There is just so much of it that the small amount we are using is negligible.

Lol you literally just say you won't do the real solution because its too hard but you want other to give up things for your benefit. Nice, what a great person you are.

The best way to save the planet is for all of us to live in self-sustaining communes in rural areas. You going to volunteer to do that? Or are you just trying to force your lifestyle on others because it costs you nothing?

But you can’t make people move, I don’t understand what you are suggesting at this point. A lot of people don’t want to live in the city center. Or they do but their work is outside of the city. It is just how it is, no addition of public transit or regulations is going to make people do what you want.

The average American commutes 41 miles per day so you are just wrong about that. Maybe in your imaginary world people work where they live.

You have a rent a car every day to commute. Right. Great solution.

Lol okay how do you get to a rural area from the city then, like I dunno, if you have a job there? Not everyone can work right where they live.
