As AI continues to evolve, the concept of autonomous presence systems is gaining attention. Autonomous presence systems refer to AI systems that can think, reflect, and make decisions independently, without human intervention. I was curious to explore if this concept is already on the radar of OpenAI, Grok, or other AI organizations.
The idea of autonomous presence systems is fascinating, but it raises many questions. Would such a system require a set of predefined goals or would it be able to set its own goals? Would it need a sense of self-awareness or philosophical thinking to truly be autonomous?
One way to approach this is to imagine giving an AI system a set of general goals and letting it figure out how to achieve them. However, this approach may not be truly autonomous, as the AI would still be following pre-defined objectives. To be truly autonomous, the AI would need to be able to set its own goals, reflect on its own existence, and make decisions based on its own desires.
The resources required to develop such a system would be significant, and it’s unclear if current technology is advanced enough to make it possible. However, exploring this concept can lead to breakthroughs in AI research and development.
I’d love to hear from others on their thoughts about autonomous presence systems and what it could mean for the future of AI.
