The Fun Family History of Custom GPTS

By the time ASI seems near, we will have thought of many more applications. Some experts suggest ASI could emerge within the next decade, while others believe it may take longer.

Where there are benefits, there are also some risks. For instance, ASI-controlled things might get out of hand and lead to unforeseen results. It could lead to widespread unemployment and economic turmoil; some of its actions may not align with human values. So, tight control over ASI would be necessary. Fortunately, we still have time to tame and regulate it so that it acts in accordance with our wishes and does not become our master.

According to Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, this future may be closer than we think. He predicts ASI could emerge within the next nine years, though the timeline remains speculative and dependent on breakthroughs in AI scaling and reasoning. While the idea may seem exciting to some, it also raises concerns about how such a powerful tool will reshape our lives, societies, and even our sense of purpose.

India needs to prepare a realistic roadmap for how it can emerge as a key contributor to artificial general intelligence over the next few years, and then work towards achieving artificial super intelligence. It will require strong policy support, funding, and coordination among academia, industry, and the government.

Is our education system preparing the young for the coming revolution? How will students, after graduating, survive in an autonomous world where most work will be done automatically? What are the skills and jobs that will still be relevant in the ASI-assisted world? What will be the new challenges before us? It is time to start thinking and preparing for it. ChatGPT was introduced on November 30, 2022. I began experimenting with it soon after and managed to publish an article in the January 2023 issue of
