You can code it that way, just as we are coded. It's the same man.

I can't give you a short/express lecture in automation because this is just a thread on reddit, but there are great places to get up to speed with current AI research and future scenarios. I like lesswrong, lots of info!

It's not the same, I for real can't be automated, not absolutely everything is up for grabs. It's puzzling how so many people can't put 2 and 2, that's the whole point.

Models are being pumped at the same rate.

You didn't answer.

Nope, can't be automated.

Is that so?

Coder. So?

What? How come? This is such a heated thing pricesly because it doesn't require art-level skills to produce stunning results.

If I show you a drawing, painting, sculpture whatever... and you think it's art, it's art.

Otherwise what you are saying is we can't decide if something is art until we know if it comes from a meat brain or a chip brain?

People that wanted their face on the wall hired an expensive painter. It was long, tedious and expensive. And then the camera was born. Cheaper, faster.

Did portrit painting vanish? Of course not. Were 99.998% of painters suddently out of job? Yes.

The companies with all the data are the strongest AI players.

Have you seen OpenAI's Codex? It's not going to be even 5 years.

It's not that I want to warn people, it's just how oblivious they all are that I find shocking. It's puzzling to me.

I am an expert on this subject matter, and know what's easily automatable and what's not. And very soon 9 out of 10 programmers, who focus mostly on implementing features, squashing bugs, etc., will be completely superfluous.

That 90% of people with generally high paying jobs are completely oblivious to the fact that a freight train is about to ram them and I can't believe the denial and self delusion of most of those. It's insane.

And people tend to overvalue what they do, and truly believe they are unexpendable and very often they are not, so be careful with an expert's opinion on themselves too.

At the beginning, you'll interface with shareholders, and instead of having a team of 12 coders, database experts, graphic and sound designers etc it'll be you and one good model producing like greek gods.

Not so long later, you'll be replaced as well.

People kept doing portraits of people when cameras were invented, sure, but only 0.001% would now keep making a living with that while 99.999% were suddenly out of a job.

Because the group "I want whatever that works that is cheaper, faster etc" is giganourmous compared to "I want it made by a human regardless of time, price etc".

In short: most demand disappears.

Didn't know about this bot sounds great. Can you cite sources? I can't imagine what computer hardware china can't get?

I've worked as a programmer and also been involved in software startups, and I can confidently say the main work of most programmers will be completely automated in a few short years. Maybe 1 out of 10 of those can keep a job as an AI whisperer or adviser to clients et. but even that more "creative" job is based on information easily integrated in a model. It's going to be rough.

Most programmers are just coders, bug squashers. Those will be gone pretty soon.

Blame the FDA and... realize biology is a fucking mess. Specially with novel therapeutic vectors. We've rushed before in clinical trials that have maimed and killed humans.

I remember one of those, guess what happened? The field was frozen for almost 10 years. Nobody wanted to put money or political face on and have the same thing happen again.

So it takes years and years of mountains of paperwork and money and tests and more paperwork to prove safety first and then efficacy. I'd rather do most of these by compassionate use, but... I'm not in charge.

I don't think you know about big pharma. They want these things by yesterday, because of money, you know? Always have but are heavily slowed down by the FDA's guidelines demanding all evidence in the world that this won't ever ever backfire in humans. This means more time and money spent performing safety preclinical and clinical trials and endless mountains of paperwork and years of back and forth with them.

People going on about sentient machines, making humans extinct... nah. This is the real nightmare, and it is more than plausible.

The first people accessing an ASI will be tempted in a way no human has been tempted before. Not using that power to alleviate human suffering may be less dangerous than using it as you see fit, regardless of your intentions. Power corrupts, and this will be a power like no other.

I agree, but I can't imagine how those events will play out. Even in the most optimistic scenarios, millions of people will face a miserable experience, regardless of their willingness to find jobs, re-train, and so on.

What the other guy said, try to cash in. I guess the only safe jobs for a while are those where the human touch is needed. But yes we are fucked.
