An interesting case of coauthorship attribution - could AIs also win copyright cases like this? news.artnet.com/art-world/mart…

And we should also give the AI some handicaps to be truly representative of human experience: physical (hardware) and psychological (software) trauma. Dysfunctional (or absent) existing social environment. etc.

I feel like "turning $100k into a million" requires less intelligence than "surviving on welfare" or even better "getting out of poverty". Could make a better starting point for an alternative to Turing Test. Thoughts on how we could design such a test? bloomberg.com/news/newslette…

In Canada first welfare check arrives 1 month after you declare having no $ and no income. If you make some income, it is deduced from your welfare. If you hide it and they find out, they cut your check monthly to reimburse themselves.

AI would at least need to maintain its own existence (pay for energy consumption, internet connection, service fees, etc) starting with no money, so it would need to borrow money first.

@tolebrun Again, all about domination. Is there a translation of "apprivoiser" which is more about dialogue and mutual care?

"To tame" can be used both with a domination/subjugation intent (eg. taming a lion) and with a companionship/empathetic intent (eg. taming a fox, as in "Le Petit Prince"). In French, there are two words: "dompter" and "apprivoiser". Are there two words in English too?

@cheznadia We use the word "domesticate" ("domestiquer") but it still contains an intention of domination by "making domestic" (making so that the animal can be made compatible with the house, the world of the human). "Apprivoiser" is more about a mutual process of "seduction" and care.
