You can read Brian Muraresku's The Immortality Key for a detailed exploration of this topic.
It certainly isn't beyond criticism, but it's points are substantive and well referenced, giving the reader enough scope to tackle the controversial points themselves, not just take the authors presentation on face value.
Perhaps in industries you are familiar with. Many industries, however, would have a continued professional development disposition that benefits from continued access to fundamental research. Mine certainly does and the lack of access impoverishes that professional development.
This does sound like a lot of fun. Since this AI only reaches silver level, presumably such a contest could be quite competitive, with it not yet being clear cut whether a human or a tool-assisted human would come out on top, for any particular problem.
This is the library I've always wanted. Look at that Julia set. Gorgeous. Thanks for this. I'm sorry to hear about the dev issues. I wish I could help.
> No patients sought conventional antidepressant treatment within 5 weeks of psilocybin. Reductions in depressive symptoms at 5 weeks were predicted by the quality of the acute psychedelic experience.
I think there's another out there with similar findings, that the stronger the mystical-type experience induced, the stronger the impact on the pathology. I haven't been able to dig it up though.
That the author has risked their reputation on the claim. If you're doubting the author is legit, interrogate their professional associations with an internet search, relying on the domain name system.
Nothing about any of this is new or profound. Counterfeit documents have been around for hundreds of years.
The question you replied to wasn't "why should you believe someone who says they are behind a piece of research", it was about the usefulness of receiving an email saying it.
Their point (I assume) was that it would be illogical to worry that the report might be written and released by AI yet consider an email response as evidence against it.
If AI can create and release this report it can also hijack a real person's email or create a fake persona that pretends to be a real person.
I'm not sure, but I think of a gesture and voice commanded coding, that is AI guided, and beautifully immersive VR presented and edited, where AI guided is a variable of unknown limit describing how intelligent it could get. I reckon Mcluhan would call it a different medium, in the way he does reading press printing vs a medieval manuscript. Whatever it is, it'll be significant.
This reads a little hysterical to me. It's just a new medium of expression. Who knows, maybe the lack of genuine artistic merit, if there is such a thing, would lead more people to watch Jim Jarmusch flicks.
