Demis Hassabis is calling on philosophers to step in. He says technologists shouldn't decide AGI's future alone.

“We need a new Kant or Wittgenstein to help map out where society should go next.”

Politics, ethics, and theology will be essential to navigating a post-AGI world.

many won't like this, but it seems a lot more sensible to ask a superhuman AGI to model our preferences and then have it optimize that. humans are highly constrained in self understanding, and we shouldn't rely on "philosophers" with bullshit theories to model our preferences.

Humans are pretty good at self understanding actually. We are just also very good at self-serving delusion

For dumb people yeah sure they can ask AI what to do, I mean I'd say that already most people should just be asking LLMs what to do in almost every situation in their lives. That's because they're dumb

I was watching an interview with the Yuval guy where he said AGI will basically make priests and rabbis irrelevant. His argument was that for 2,000 years in text-based religions you needed an intermediary to read and interpret the text for you, but there’s no priest or rabbi who knows/understands 100% of the texts and stories. But with AGI you just ask it and it will tell you. It can even give you the majority and minority interpretations.
