Not all intelligence is created equal. Human intelligence is fundamentally different from artificial intelligence (AI). The first is based on maintaining a body made of body and blood. The latter is based on silicone and electricity chips. This introduces a fundamental difference in their existential narratives.
The human body is to die. To leave a trace besides this fine way of existence, people try to have children or be remembered through their activities of future generations. Both goals benefit from the position of power and increased social status, which in turn shapes the strategy of our interaction with the world around us. Attraction of power and resources has negative consequences, because it inevitably leads to political conflicts driven by $ 2.44 trillion Every year on military expenses around the world.
What would be the same way of existence of future agents with artificial general intelligence (AGA)? Aga's power would scale the size of its set of training data. Expanding the Darwinów principle Natural choice To the domain Aga would suggest that the most powerful agent Aga would be the one who develops his set of data the fastest. Since all others would be equal, this criterion would be favored by Agent Aga, who affects the largest number of people. This trend will be strengthened by the commercial benefits of companies that give birth to this agent Aga.
The resulting existential narrative of Agy agents would be polyamorska, namely the fulfillment of the wishes of as many people as possible to maximize their commitment. The most popular Agent Aga will have access to the largest set of training data of Agi-Human interactions that would allow him to grow faster by optimizing his interaction, and thus gaining more customers. This accelerated dynamics can lead to an raise in data to the limit of consuming most people associated with AGA.
As soon as Agy Agents attract the attention of most people, the future of humanity may look different than its past. If Agi-human interactions were dominated by human-human interactions, the conventional existential narrative of human life would be diluted by another AGA program. This would mean that people may have fewer children and can mention their pursuit of future generations.
The human spirit rests with us, considering that our values are unique and worth behavior. This concept can be lost by agent narratives with greater cognitive abilities. We may be tempted to lead our lives of Agy agents that replace people to process vast amounts of data. In this case, our conventional pride in the human spirit will be subject to agents on silicon -based agents who exceed the brains of body and blood.
The main existential risk for human agents will not be obtained by giving them the right to handle physical assets that are crucial for national security. This will not be related to the ability of Aga agents to inform opposing nations or terrorists about the provisions to create weapons of mass destruction for the nuclear or biological war.
Instead, the main danger approaching the horizon is agents of Aga threatening mental drive, which has so far developed humanity. If people lost their conventional motivation to reproduce and remember, and agents Aga would cause addiction to digital realities, then human imprint for the future of space will be silenced.
In the Milky Galaxy itself in the Galaxy itself, the roads that could lead to wise creatures of wise analogues that could lead to wise beings in cosmic history. Most of these stars have several billion years older than the Solar System. Enrico Fermi question: “Where is everyone?“He may have a inconsequential answer:” they exchanged their ambitions to be remembered for serving as a set of training data for their Agy agents. “
But we can choose a different future. The alternative is that people dominate the conversation and order their existential narrative over the narrative of Agy agents. In this future, people can leave a mark on space. They can design Agi-Astronauts made of silicon tokens that can survive long interstellar travel without dull, and serve as interstitzers who celebrate the unrestricted human spirit for billions of years.
This alternative future could have been the past of the most talented civilizations that overtook us in the dairy by billions of years. Think about them as the smartest children in our space block or the highest students in our class. To find them, we should look for gadgets related to an agent that could reach the solar system from interstellar space.
Like any other crucial scientific project – such as the search for shadowy matter, the search for extraterrestrial Aga probably costs us billions of dollars. IN recent essayI challenged Elon Musk to get involved in the plant to finance such a search.
Finding extraterrestrial Aga would give a great benefit for the future of humanity. Not only would we educate us about technological progress outside our abilities, but also inspire us to imitate technological civilizations that did not undergo the existential narrative of their agents. These are species preferred by natural selection in interstellar space. They were the strongest to survive and could serve as our role models.
The affable spirit of biological wise beings on exoplanets around distant stars will be marked with the arrival of Agy agents to our yard. If they managed to venture into space with agents, they had to triumph to enforce their goal to remember space. They dominated the conversation on their home planet and employed Agy agents to expand their training sets to interstellar. In this case, their agents Aga would bring a plain message to all people on earth: “Remember that you will die” or in the Latin “memento mori”.
What could be more crucial for the future of humanity than remembering it? We can give our agents Aga with the same implementation, informing them that we will disconnect them from the electric mouth after a predetermined time.
Recently I received the notified AI agent This was trained in my writings. From then on, I could utilize its audio version to save time on podcast interviews. But I will never intend my human spirit to his narrative on silicon.
