The Pope's humanist manifesto calls the tech industry's AI vision anti-human and demands new regulations
OpenAI's Roon and e/acc's Beff responded to the text.
We need to scale the Christian e/acc faction @phteocos
Personally, I reject the idea of limitations.
I watched three humans travel farther than any other in history. Not because of any one skill, but because of a combination of skill, technology and courage.
The idea that we’re some kind of fixed, finite thing that is reduced to IQ, horsepower or wealth is sad and dehumanizing.
A thousand years from now I expect we’ll still be watching humans do new and wonderful things. If anyone doesn’t think that’s true, then they’re only pro-human in the most patronizing way.
we will come to see human limitations as sacred and joyous and look back on them the way you look back on your childhood
