good point. I do not personally think that knowing that there is a possibility you will die without you able to do anything to reverse course adds any value unless you mean worldwide social revolt against all nations to stop AI labs?
but how do we get this message accross ? it can reinforce the point of my article that not enough is being done, only in obscure LW forums.
but you are comparing epochs before and after Turing test passed. Isnt' that relevant? The Turing test unanimously was/is an inflection point and arguably most experts think we have already passed it in 2023.
why would something that you admit that is temporary (for now) matter in an exponential curve? It's like saying it's ok to go out for drinks on March 5 2020. Ok sure but 10 days after it wasn't. The argument must stand for a very long period of time or it's better not said. And that is the best argument for why we should be cautious, because a) we don't know for sure and b) things change extremely fast.
isn't German very easy to learn for Dutch people? most I met became quite fluent very fast due to similarities
I do agree and I admire you because you learned very different languages which is more difficult. I kept the germanic-latin tree of languages.
Exaggerated ofc, not sure how to write the pronunciation. Word s like graag (gladly) can be written in English like "hraah" for example. Or krachtig (strong) could be krahtih. Lots of repetition of these sounds.
Sure thing you can contact me. In Greek we use several Spanish words in their original form and I was wondering was that because we had many shipping ties with Spain and was it the marineros that brought them? Word s like timón, barca, galleta etc.
I actually find my latín american Friends easier to understand, they do use some unknown words but speak muchuch slower especially vs the Andalusians
Very interesting. I suspect the effect would be much greater for Mediterranean languages because Esperanto itself is latin based.
Yes I didn't even know the difference :) I thought tap is only for pub beer ! Totally disconnected from the exams where you only dealt with essays
I am kind of buffled about why this effort would go to be 0 votes or even downvoted? Is the message "the world needs to know or we should discuss about it" wrong or the styling of the document?
