The rise of the machines. Chat GPT's newest model has achieved AGI according to Jenson Haung . If anyone would know he would. Although it is in NVIDIA's best interests if it were so ......
On that note, Chat GPT was asked about the probability of human extinction.... Sucks to be a young person these days....

ChatGPT​

ChatGPT, the generative AI chatbot developed by OpenAI, answered with the following:

“My best estimate is around 5% that AI causes human extinction by September 2036, with a plausible range of roughly 1—15%.

“That is deliberately a wide range. There is no reliable way to assign a precise probability because the question depends on several unknowns: how quickly AI capabilities improve, whether systems become capable of pursuing long-horizon goals autonomously, whether they can evade human control, and how effectively governments and labs manage those risks.

Agreed . I would think that the biggest threat will be the development of a virus which is highly contagious and deadly, think worse than Ebola , for which the developer has at the same time either developed a vaccine or a cure . A rogue Nation like North Korea or Iran or just some rich nutcase hidden away in their mountain hideout. Very effective, not stopped by borders or military might and relatively cheap to produce.
We are at the catch 22 point in that if responsible governments and private corporations were to implement enforceable safe guards to prevent this and other nefarious uses of ever more powerful AI the world's nutbars will do no such thing. I'm afraid we are in a race to the bottom. Makes the old Cold War deterrent of assured mutual destruction moot . It's my children and grandchildren I worry about. It used to be how will they get along in life . Now it's will they even have one . Scary as hell . Fingers crossed and prayers I suppose.
 
For anyone with old drives kicking around this is a very versatile device and amazingly reasonable cost. Been looking for something like this for a while having quite a collection of now unused drives . This is the complete package including power supply. Easier than pulling your PC or Mac apart . And only $40.00 .
