βHe which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.β
Show me a robot that can snake out a plugged toilet. The people who believe that most jobs can be automated are ivory-tower academics and programmers who have never done any real work in their lives.
Astounding that you would make such strong claims while only able to focus on the rapidly changing present and such a small picture detail. Try approaching the AGI claim from a big picture perspective, I assure you, snaking a drain is the most trivial of implementation details for what we're facing.
honestly I'm not sure I've seen the bar set higher for "what's a threat?" than for AGI on Hacker News. the old adage of not being able to convince a man of something that is directly in opposition to him receiving his paycheck clearly remains true. gpt-4 should scare you enough, even if it's 1000 years from being AGI.
