Here is a thoughtful proposal about how to stop advanced AI, specifically Artificial General Intelligence, from becoming superintelligent and killing us all. A well-known top AI researcher has called for preventative measures to bomb data centers which contain the AI data training, and put a hard legal limit on the computational power used in an AGI system.

As a solution, Yudkowsky suggests a moratorium on new large training runs, which should be indefinite and worldwide.

He recommends shutting down all the large GPU clusters, which are the large computer farms where the most powerful AIs are refined, and putting a ceiling on how much computing power anyone is allowed to use in training an AI system.

Yudkowsky argues that no exceptions should be made for governments and militaries, and that immediate multinational agreements are needed to prevent prohibited activities from moving elsewhere.

In order to enforce these regulations, Yudkowsky proposes tracking all GPUs sold, and being less scared of a shooting conflict between nations than of the moratorium being violated. He suggests that rogue data centres should be destroyed by airstrikes if necessary."

Operation: Everyday Advice.

This is how we tag concise, straight-forward everyday advice. What defines whether the advice is truly "everyday" advice is whether it would come in handy every single day of your life if only you could remember it. Things like sleeping enough, drinking water, eating less sugar, and treating other people with compassion.

So if you have any everyday advice for each other, just tag it with #everyday_💬 #advice_💬, and if you want to look for some random everyday advice just look up #everyday_💬#advice - good looking out for each other!

Very interesting #AI_💬 news, there's an open letter going around gathering signatures from the Future of Life Institute that states:

"We call on all AI labs to immediately pause for at least 6 months the training of AI systems more powerful than GPT-4"

https://futureoflife.org/open-letter/pause-giant-ai-experiments/

Interestingly, the petition has already been signed by big tech CEOs and technologists that are very involved in current A.I. development.

This article does a great job of explaining the crisis humanity is facing with the rapid advance of our latest A.I. systems threatening to out-think and out-maneuver us within a matter of years.

Krita 5 is a great Animation Tool!

Now with motion tweening!

Krita is a #free_💬 and #opensource_💬 tool for creating digital art, including animation! And in Krita 5 they've introduced motion tweening! So now you can use motion tweens by going to "Settings->Dockers->Animation Curves" and you can move a whole "group" of layers as one thing.

There's apparently a "Youtube Audio Library" that has a bunch of songs available for use in anything, as long as it's not distributed unchanged. That's their wording. So, seems that it's basically opensource beats? They call it "royalty-free production music and sound effects" that is "copyright-safe" although I'm having trouble finding the actual license but I'll update it in the comments if I find it. It looks like the big "catch" is that if you monetize your video you can't use their music UNLESS you're part of some special program that's hard to get into.... so it could be a trap so you can't make money off your music, so be careful with this stuff, but I was suprised how good some of it sounded anyways. Make sure you find out the specific license of the music you're going to use, they have various licensing.

Here's a few good songs I saw used in some stupid auto-generated review video of Amazon products with a bunch of product links in the description. I was curious how a stupid auto-generated video had such good music so I dug a little deeper and this is what I found! I think it'd be an ironic twist to use this music to rap about the dangers of A.I. and the consolidation of media and corporate power by using the corporate opensource beats as a medium ;}
