LLMs AGI IP Laws Free speech and the sciences

 Copyright and patent laws are not natural rights, they're instruments to encourage progress.  If they stop promoting progress, or worse hinder it, they lose their constitutional justification.

These IP laws are a violation of free speech currently allowed and justified under the dubious notion they promote progress in arts and sciences.  When it is the free exchange of ideas that maximizes progress of arts and sciences.

That said with the arrival of artificial general intelligence and eventually superintelligence it will become even more evident that IP laws hinder progress in arts and sciences and lack constitutional justification, but are in fact unconstitutional.   You cant restrict peoples inalienable natural innate inviolable natural right yk freedom of speech just to harm the public good by hindering progress.

In the mean time in coming years it is likely llms and or any more advanced ai will be able to analyze binaries, machine code or closed software even obfuscated and reverse engineer and replicate function of any and all privately sold software resulting in the easy creation of open source software of same function but different underlying reverse engineered code.

Whether such can be offered publicly or not doesnt matter much if local llms continue to get better.  As anyone will be able to privately recreate any software they like.   The ability of llms and future more advanced software will make any software ad a service company need to innovate and look for other sources of value to provide besides functionality.

Your Windows 11 Computer’s Hidden Spy: The Dark Truth About TPM Chips

You will never get AGI


Comment

Robocars and robots, have small amount of compute and are doing human level performance at some of the most complex tasks.  Brain likely has same order of compute. So I do think people will get agi, you need a datacenter for thousands of agis not for a single one.  And neuroscience will crack brain algorithms in coming decades.   I believe the actual algorithm for agi is likely very simple keeping it secret will be almost like keeping 1 plus 1 secret

The Squirrel in Your Head: Attention Schema & the Hard Problem

Comment
it's called qualia, and it is in there, qualia is just another aspect of information states. And its peculiar nature or feeling is likely due to the high dimensional mathematical structures the brain's networks create. You're not going to find the story of Harry Potter in a book of Harry Potter, just ink and paper, but the patterns of information contain the story of Harry Potter which is distinct from ink and paper.

Your Brain Isn't Hardware Running Software


Quote : All information processing and all computing can be boiled down to simple addition and conditional branching.  That is not sufficient  for consciousness, consciousness is information states themselves.  Intrinsic aspect of information.   Certain patterns correspond to sensation of qualia just like certain patterns correspond to the video and audio in a dvd.
