    Once we build a warp drive it will be easy to use

    Great. Build the warp drive.

      Considering we have AI systems being worked today and no advancements on warp drive, I think that comparison is done in bad faith. Nobody seems to want to talk about this other than slinging insults.

        They’re referring to the alignment issue, which is an ongoing issue only slightly smaller in scale then warp drive. It’s basically impossible to solve. Google “alignment issue machine learning” for more info.

        For the record, there have been several advancements in warp drive precursors even just this year.

          Can you share the advancements on warp drive that have survived peer review, I would be very interested in learning about. The two things I heard about were not able to be reproduced.

          I think alignment of AI is a fundamentally flawed concept, hence my original comment. Alignment should be abandoned. If we eventually build a sentient system (which is the goal), we won’t be able to control via alignment. And in the interim we need obedient tools, not things that resist doing as they’re told which makes them not tools and not worth having.

          Edit: PS thanks for actually having a conversation.
