AI/AGI/ASI Bible: Humanoid AI (HAI) and Robotics (HAIR)
"AI systems with human-competitive intelligence can pose profound risks to society and humanity, as shown by extensive research and acknowledged by top AI labs". [Pause Giant AI Experiments: An Open Letter , 33707 signatures]
Advanced AI systems could possess human-like physical bodies, but hardly human-like or human-competitive intelligence, becoming full Humanoid AI (HAI), "posing profound risks to society and humanity".
True AI must be endowed with non-human, human-complete, reality-modeling brains/intelligence/mind, as it is proposed in the Trans-AI paper:
The HAI paperclip apocalypse in action
Machines and humans might guess without knowing, know without understanding, understand without comprehending, comprehend without interacting, interact without innovating,...
The mainstream, human-like, human-competing AI computes or generates or predicts without knowing, understanding, comprehending, interacting, or innovating, with all existential consequences...
All today's AI/ML/GenAI/LLM/GPT-x and robotics are a humanoid, human-compete technology which is a risky business model, as it is mentioned in many information reports, "OpenAI could go bankrupt in 12 months if it doesn’t raise some serious cash – but is the Microsoft-backed AI giant too big to fail?"
Besides, Humanoid AI (HAI) and Robotics (HAIR) as having human-like, human-level or human-compete intelligence is an existential threat to humanity,
The human-mimicking AI's heavy addiction to energy, which is unsustainable and irrational, is solid evidence of its unintelligence. It is wasting an infinite amount of ever-increasing energy to train and set up an AI model and to run its services. A leading example, OpenAI’s infamous ChatGPT4, took over 50 GWh of energy to train, and uses 500,000 kWh of energy daily servicing user queries, with the total energy footprint equivalent to a medium-sized city.
It is logical that OpenAI with its key sponsor, Microsoft, could be on the brink of collapse with projected losses totaling $5 billion, according to analysis conducted by The Information.
The multiple Information’s report around the future of OpenAI are suggesting the multi-billion losses, $8.5 billion = $7 billion to annually fund its fake genAI models + 1.5 billion wages, are to send the company bankrupt , despite Microsoft’s $10 billion investments and discounted access to Microsoft's Azure cloud services.
Now, with scaling-up, its energy use increases exponentially. The IEA predicts that the AI industry will waste 1,000 TWh of energy each year by 2026, the equivalent to Japan’s annual energy usage, and it will only continue to grow from there, looking to employ the nuclear-powered data centers.
In the second quarter of 2023, Nvidia shipped over 900 tons of H100 compute GPUs for AI and high-performance computing (HPC) use cases. If you bring all these GPUs online at once, it would consume over 30 GW of power .
The AI paperclip apocalypse is in its action.
If such an AI machine were trained with simulated human intelligence, instead of being programmed with real world knowledge, intelligence, learning and true values, with the assistance of its owners, it would try to turn all energy resources in the world into performing single-minded tasks, generating deepfakes and hallucinations, corrupting rational decision-makings and being harmful for real-world problem-solving.
Humanoid AI Humanoid Robotics
Robots that look, think and act like humans, called humanoid robots, have been around for centuries since the Talos robot, a giant automaton to protect Europe, as myths or sci-fi imaginations.
But recent advances in human-like AI, deep ML, generative AI, large language models (LLMs), and large multimodal models (LMMs) are making a sci-fi humanoid robot, as Eve from Ex Machina a piece of actuality.
It integrates the advancements in LLMs, LMMs, generative AI, and human-like and human-level AI with humanoid robotics, omniverse, and decentralized AI, opening the era of human-competing AI humanoids and humanoid AI robots:
HAI robots are replacing practically all human professions or jobs.
Humanoid politicians,
Humanoid analytics

Humanoid engineers,
Humanoid advisers,
Humanoid lawyers,
Humanoid educators,
Humanoid researchers,
Humanoid medical professionals,
Humanoid artists,
Humanoid pilots,
Humanoid caregivers,
Humanoid receptionists...
Humanoid military robots.
To conclude:
Real AI systems could possess human-like physical bodies, but hardly human-like or human-competitive intelligence "posing profound risks to society and humanity".
For some esthetical considerations, we could create humanoid robots that only look human, but never "embodying human-like intelligence and cognition", "think, feel, and behave in a genuinely human-like manner" .
HUMANS ARE HUMANS, MACHINES ARE MACHINES, THEY COULD ONLY COMPLETE EACH OTHER, NEVER COMPETE.
They must be endowed with non-human, human-complete, reality-modeling, true brains/intelligence or mind, as it is proposed in the Trans-AI project:
Resources
We call on all AI labs to immediately pause for at least 6 months the training of AI systems more powerful than GPT-4.
AI systems with human-competitive intelligence can pose profound risks to society and humanity, as shown by extensive research[1] and acknowledged by top AI labs.[2] As stated in the widely-endorsed Asilomar AI Principles , Advanced AI could represent a profound change in the history of life on Earth, and should be planned for and managed with commensurate care and resources. Unfortunately, this level of planning and management is not happening, even though recent months have seen AI labs locked in an out-of-control race to develop and deploy ever more powerful digital minds that no one – not even their creators – can understand, predict, or reliably control.
Contemporary AI systems are now becoming human-competitive at general tasks,[3] and we must ask ourselves: Should we let machines flood our information channels with propaganda and untruth??Should we automate away all the jobs, including the fulfilling ones? Should?we develop nonhuman minds that might eventually outnumber, outsmart,?obsolete and replace?us? Should we risk loss of control of our civilization? Such decisions must not be delegated to unelected tech leaders.?Powerful AI systems should be developed only once we are confident that their effects will be positive and their risks will be manageable.
In the approximately century-long journey of robotics, humanoid robots made their debut around six decades ago. The rapid advancements in generative AI, large language models (LLMs), and large multimodal models (LMMs) have reignited interest in humanoids, steering them towards real-time, interactive, and multimodal designs and applications. This resurgence unveils boundless opportunities for AI robotics and novel applications, paving the way for automated, real-time and humane interactions with humanoid advisers, educators, medical professionals, caregivers, and receptionists. However, while current humanoid robots boast human-like appearances, they have yet to embody true humaneness, remaining distant from achieving human-like intelligence. In our comprehensive review, we delve into the intricate landscape of AI robotics and AI humanoid robots in particular, exploring the challenges, perspectives and directions in transitioning from human-looking to humane humanoids and fostering human-like robotics. This endeavour synergizes the advancements in LLMs, LMMs, generative AI, and human-level AI with humanoid robotics, omniverse, and decentralized AI, ushering in the era of AI humanoids and humanoid AI
