@vgr makes an astute observation (as usual). AI is already commoditized because all models are trained on roughly the same dataset of human knowledge; and, therefore, they perform similarly within a segment (broadly: light/free, medium/paid, and advanced/expensive models). It then follows that users will gravitate toward the cheapest or most convenient model within that segment. Now, if AI is fungible, and AI is set to replace human intelligence at a variety of tasks, does that mean that human intelligence is also fungible? I’d respond in the affirmative if and only if humans were also trained on the entirety of human knowledge, but that’s obviously not the case. Our lifespans and brain capacity are too limited for that to happen (yet). So, for now, what differentiates the intelligence of two humans of equal IQ is whatever dataset they trained on — which roughly maps to upbringing, culture, education, and formative experience. 1/2 https://warpcast.com/vgr/0x3053ee4a

The resulting irony is this: what makes two randomly-sampled people of comparable IQs unique is how *imperfect* their training data is. They each trained on different, but both narrow subsets of all knowledge. That makes them, on average, non-fungible relative to one another; in a way that, say, two white city boys who both got their Harvard MBA are much more fungible. So what passes for “personality” has a lot to do with the spice of life, i.e. the variety of different backgrounds and training datasets among humans. The more we homogenize culture and education, the more fungibility we introduce, and thus the more interchangeable (and AI-replaceable) people become — and that’s perhaps a motivating case for the D in DEI. 2/2

but AI is not fully fungible. some AIs are better to some tasks and some are worse, plus there are big differences between the models because of different weights and safety instructions, similar to people btw :)

Fascinating point human intelligence is unique shaped by personal experience while AI still relies on shared datasets. 🌱🤖
