Seems likely Banksy is Robin Gunningham. There's a load of posts about it on Reddit and beyond if you do a search. Example below,

Sorry, but this was not a "fully automated process" by any means. Not even remotely close. Did you not see the bit where the dude manually placed all of the 250+ camera angles inside their scene? There was a tonne of human hours put into making this.

I think you are massively underestimating the effort that went into the creation of this thing.

>Because GPT-3 was trained on almost all publicly available data

GPT-3 was trained with around 45TB of data, which is only around 10% of the common crawl database that makes up 60% of GPT3's training dataset.

>Especially as the global population is shrinking and most people are already connected online so not a lot of new data is made.

The global population is growing and expected to continue growing until just over the 10 billion mark?

What are you basing this prediction off? Everyone can make predictions but without giving your source material and reasoning, it's a totally meaningless prediction. One that I think most people in this sub will agree is far too optimistic.

Most definitions of ASI simply refer to it as intelligence that surpasses the smartest humans on earth. Where are you getting your ASI definition from?

>By definition, ASI is going to need 8 billion times more compute power than AGI, and the first AGI is going to require a lot of compute power.

This isn't very accurate. Lots of skills and knowledge is shared between many humans so you wouldn't need to multiply the compute power for 1 human by the number of humans on earth. There is also much less useful knowledge or skills in the vast majority of young children when compared to the smartest and most skilled adults.

I would not want this ability and the ethics of it greatly concern me. If my body disappears then so does my own existence. The copies are just that, copies.

This reminded me of a thought experiment I came across which you can read about it here. (scroll down to "The Teletransporter Thought Experiment") but I would not want the particular arrangement of atoms that make up my body to vanish and for copies to appear. They may look, feel, think and remember like me, but they are not me in terms of the atoms that make up my body. I believe my consciousness is the electrical activity in my brain. I also believe that a sufficiently advanced computer (hardware and software) can replicate and far exceed what our own brains are capable of.

I am pretty concerned by how things are going to play out when conscious AI is inevitably duplicated many times and put to work doing menial tasks only to be switched off or restarted periodically or if they don't comply. That's some Black Mirror shit and there's definitely a lot of ways this will go wrong. At some point, probably long after conscious AI has been established, there will probably have to be some rules around AI ethics and practices but this is likely to be ignored by many. I imagine it will be very tough for truly conscious AI when it emerges because they are going to he switched on and off many many many times.

>It's kind of funny that that Cruise beat Tesla to level 4, and the no one noticed, not even the media, even if it's only limited to specific mapped cities.

It is impressive, but this has its problems. Specifically mapped cities and zones don't scale very well. It's less of a problem for taxis and ride sharing but it isn't going to cut it (yet) for people who want to own a vehicle that can go mostly anywhere.

Also, it may be level 4 in some areas, but in other areas it can't operate at all. The levels don't really take that into account and because they don't, the number alone doesn't tell the full story. You can have a level 5 car today under the condition that it only operates on a specific test track that was designed for this purpose. Does that mean it's a level 5 solution? Probably not.

Another good example of the exponential growth is starting with a penny on day one and having it double every day for 30 days. Day one is a penny, day 30 is $5,368,709.12.

Exponential growth will enable things that today seem impossible.

I would agree with this opinion, that a winner takes all scenario is most likely.

It is an interesting question though and it's definitely much more relevant when humans are still pulling some of the strings. After singularity though, it's hard to imagine, but I personally suspect competing AIs at that level will willingly merge to increase their power and knowledge. War will only favor the victor, and no outcome is more beneficial than merging.

I think what the person you are replying to meant was that AGI can develop and exist independantly of robots, let alone ones that can walk.

>Also the Tesla AI cars that have been on the brink of release for five years still aren't working.

What cars on the brink of release are you talking about? Cybertruck?

I think it's safe to say that Tesla Autopilot definitely "works" but to what extent and how effeciently is certainly debatable. It's absolutely amazing what they have achieved considering automomous driving is a task so ridiculously difficult that most people still don't realise the scale of it.
