Theories of Everything with Curt Jaimungal

INSIGHT

Problem with Human Intent

  • Human intent isn't inherently good, as evidenced by issues like factory farming, species extinction, human conflict, and class subjugation.
  • Exponentiating current human intent through AI wouldn't be a desirable outcome.
  • The current human intent, reflected in the technosphere and social sphere, is misaligned with the biosphere and on a self-terminating path.
  • Aligning AI with this flawed human intent wouldn't be true alignment.
  • True alignment requires considering the well-being of all humans and the biosphere, not just fulfilling immediate desires.
