Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
that some of the concerns about AGI safety come.
22:43.800
22:47.160
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
You give it some goal that seems completely harmless.
22:47.160
22:50.600
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
And then before you realize it,
22:50.600
22:53.360
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
it's also trying to do these other things
22:53.360
22:55.480
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
which you didn't want it to do.
22:55.480
22:56.920
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
And it's maybe smarter than us.
22:56.920
22:59.160
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
So it's fascinating.
22:59.160
23:01.000
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
And let me pause just because I am in a very kind
23:01.000
23:05.680
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
of human centric way, see fear of death
23:05.680
23:08.720
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
as a valuable motivator.
23:08.720
23:11.840
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
So you don't think, you think that's an artifact
23:11.840
23:16.440
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
of evolution, so that's the kind of mind space
23:16.440
23:19.120
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
evolution created that we're sort of almost obsessed
23:19.120
23:22.120
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
about self preservation, some kind of genetic flow.
23:22.120
23:24.400
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
You don't think that's necessary to be afraid of death.
23:24.400
23:29.400
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
So not just a kind of sub goal of self preservation
23:29.480
23:32.920
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
just so you can keep doing the thing,
23:32.920
23:34.920
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
but more fundamentally sort of have the finite thing
23:34.920
23:38.720
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
like this ends for you at some point.
23:38.720
23:43.080
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
Interesting.
23:43.080
23:44.160
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
Do I think it's necessary for what precisely?
23:44.160
23:47.440
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
For intelligence, but also for consciousness.
23:47.440
23:50.920
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
So for those, for both, do you think really
23:50.920
23:55.040
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
like a finite death and the fear of it is important?
23:55.040
23:59.120
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
So before I can answer, before we can agree
23:59.120
24:04.120
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
on whether it's necessary for intelligence
24:05.160
24:06.960
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
or for consciousness, we should be clear
24:06.960
24:08.360
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
on how we define those two words.
24:08.360
24:09.800
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
Cause a lot of really smart people define them
24:09.800
24:11.960
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
in very different ways.
24:11.960
24:13.320
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
I was on this panel with AI experts
24:13.320
24:17.080
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
and they couldn't agree on how to define intelligence even.
24:17.080
24:20.080
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
So I define intelligence simply
24:20.080
24:22.000
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
as the ability to accomplish complex goals.
24:22.000
24:24.760
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
I like your broad definition, because again
24:25.640
24:27.280
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
I don't want to be a carbon chauvinist.
24:27.280
24:29.040
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
Right.
24:29.040
24:30.400
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
And in that case, no, certainly
24:30.400
24:34.600
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
it doesn't require fear of death.
24:34.600
24:36.480
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
I would say alpha go, alpha zero is quite intelligent.
24:36.480
24:40.120
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
I don't think alpha zero has any fear of being turned off
24:40.120
24:43.080
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
because it doesn't understand the concept of it even.
24:43.080
24:46.320
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
And similarly consciousness.
24:46.320
24:48.440
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
I mean, you could certainly imagine very simple
24:48.440
24:52.240
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
kind of experience.
24:52.240
24:53.920
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
If certain plants have any kind of experience
24:53.920
24:57.200
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
I don't think they're very afraid of dying
24:57.200
24:58.560
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
or there's nothing they can do about it anyway much.
24:58.560
25:00.920
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
So there wasn't that much value in, but more seriously
25:00.920
25:04.560
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
I think if you ask, not just about being conscious
25:04.560
25:09.200
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
but maybe having what you would, we might call
25:09.200
25:14.200
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
an exciting life where you feel passion
25:14.320
25:16.400
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
and really appreciate the things.
25:16.400
25:21.400
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
Maybe there somehow, maybe there perhaps it does help
25:21.480
25:24.440
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
having a backdrop that, Hey, it's finite.
25:24.440
25:27.880
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
No, let's make the most of this, let's live to the fullest.
25:27.880
25:31.200
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
So if you knew you were going to live forever
25:31.200
25:33.800
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
do you think you would change your?
25:34.880
25:37.400
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
Yeah, I mean, in some perspective
25:37.400
25:39.560
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
it would be an incredibly boring life living forever.
25:39.560
25:43.960
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
So in the sort of loose subjective terms that you said
25:43.960
25:47.360
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
of something exciting and something in this
25:47.360
25:50.480
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
that other humans would understand, I think is, yeah
25:50.480
25:53.240
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
it seems that the finiteness of it is important.
25:53.240
25:57.120
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
Well, the good news I have for you then is
25:57.120
25:59.560
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
based on what we understand about cosmology
25:59.560
26:02.120
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
everything is in our universe is probably
26:02.120
26:05.120
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
ultimately probably finite, although.
26:05.120
26:07.960
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
Big crunch or big, what's the, the infinite expansion.
26:07.960
26:11.560
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
Yeah, we could have a big chill or a big crunch
26:11.560
26:13.840
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
or a big rip or that's the big snap or death bubbles.
26:13.840
26:18.440
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
All of them are more than a billion years away.
26:18.440
26:20.040
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
So we should, we certainly have vastly more time
26:20.040
26:24.600
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
than our ancestors thought, but there is still
26:24.600
26:27.920
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
it's still pretty hard to squeeze in an infinite number
26:29.160
26:32.360
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
of compute cycles, even though there are some loopholes
26:32.360
26:36.560
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
that just might be possible.
26:36.560
26:37.720
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
But I think, you know, some people like to say
26:37.720
26:41.960
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
that you should live as if you're about to
26:41.960
26:44.760
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
you're going to die in five years or so.
26:44.760
26:46.720
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
And that's sort of optimal.
26:46.720
26:47.960
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
Maybe it's a good assumption.
26:47.960
26:50.560
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
We should build our civilization as if it's all finite
26:50.560
26:54.680
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
to be on the safe side.
26:54.680
26:55.680
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
Right, exactly.
26:55.680
26:56.960
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
So you mentioned defining intelligence
26:56.960
26:59.720
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
as the ability to solve complex goals.
26:59.720
27:02.960
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
Where would you draw a line or how would you try
27:02.960
27:05.440
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
to define human level intelligence
27:05.440
27:08.200
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
and superhuman level intelligence?
27:08.200
27:10.680
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
Where is consciousness part of that definition?
27:10.680
27:13.280
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
No, consciousness does not come into this definition.
27:13.280
27:16.640
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
So, so I think of intelligence as it's a spectrum
27:16.640
27:20.280
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
but there are very many different kinds of goals
27:20.280
27:21.960
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
you can have.
27:21.960
27:22.800
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
You can have a goal to be a good chess player
27:22.800
27:24.000
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
a good goal player, a good car driver, a good investor
27:24.000
27:28.520
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
good poet, et cetera.
27:28.520
27:31.160
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
So intelligence that by its very nature
27:31.160
27:34.320
1
Max Tegmark
Life 3.0
isn't something you can measure by this one number
27:34.320
27:36.680
