This episode discusses AI safety, predictions for unemployment due to AI, and simulation theory. Key figures include Dr. Roman Gimpolski and references to Sam.

Dr. Roman Gimpolski shares insights on AI safety, expressing skepticism about the ability to create safe AI. He highlights the rapid advancements expected in AI capabilities, predicting significant unemployment rates by 2027.

The conversation touches on the competitive nature of AI development, with Gimpolski criticizing individuals like Sam for prioritizing profit over safety, risking lives in the process.

Gimpolski also introduces simulation theory, suggesting that humanity may be living in a simulation and emphasizes the importance of addressing this before potential shutdowns.

TLDR

Dr. Roman Gimpolski warns about AI risks and predicts massive unemployment by 2027 while discussing simulation theory.

We've been working on AI safety for two decades at least. Yeah. I was convinced we can make safe
00:00:04
AI, but the more I looked at it, the more I realized is not something we can actually do.
00:00:09
You have made a series of predictions about variety of different states. So, what is your prediction for 2027?
00:00:19
In 2 years, the capability to replace most humans in most occupations will come very quickly. I mean, in 5 years,
00:00:26
we're looking at a world where we have levels of unemployment we never seen before. Not talking about 10% but 99%.
00:00:34
And that's without super intelligence, a system smarter than all humans in all domains. So, it would be better than us
00:00:40
at making new AI. But it's worse than that. We don't know how to make them safe. And yet, we still have the
00:00:46
smartest people in the world competing to win the race to super intelligence. But
00:00:50
what do you make of people like Sam's journey with AI? So decade ago, we published guard rails for how to do AI,
00:00:56
right? They violated every single one and he's gambling 8 billion lives on getting richer and more powerful. So I
00:01:03
guess some people want to go to Mars, others want to control the universe. But it doesn't matter who builds it. The
00:01:09
moment you switch to super intelligence, we will most likely regret it terribly.
00:01:14
And then by 2045, now this is where it gets interesting. Dr. Roman Gimpolski, let's talk about
00:01:22
simulation theory. I think we are in one and there is a lot of agreement on this and this is what
00:01:26
you should be doing in it so we don't shut it down first.
