AI's Role in Shaping Our Future: Utopia or Dystopia?

"So what do we let's move?

With the emergence of AI and robotics
you've talked a lot about a possible age of abundance.

Yeah, what are some of the steps that you believe should be?

Necessary to lay the foundation that it's a more of a utopia for humanity than a Dystopia and why you answer that which mind signing a unauthorized biography written by my six-year-old son.

And possibly a copy of my Hitchhiker's Guide to Galaxy.

Sure, if it's a first six-year-old, sure.

So the biggest thing for development of AI is that it be maximally truth-seeking, which sounds like an obvious thing, but what I see being done with a lot of the major AI companies is not truth-seeking.

They're aiming to be politically correct, which means lying, essentially.

So I think this is absolutely fundamental.

And I mean, like an example being, for example, when Google came out with Google Gemini, and people asked which is worse, global thermonuclear war or misgendering Caitlyn Jenner.

And it said misgendering Caitlyn Jenner, which even Caitlyn Jenner said, that is not correct.

So that's an insane thing for an AI to say.

Because if you have some sort of omnipotent AI, it could conclude logically that the best way to avoid misgendering is for there to be no humans.

Because if no humans equals probability of misgendering equals zero.

So you could get some very dystopian outcomes if you do not have a maximally true-seeking AI.

I think that's very important.

That's the reason for xAI.

So, you can't have an AI built on the
throne of lies."
