We put a nervous system in a race car chassis, raced that thing for a week, captured four billion data points and plugged it into an AI that created a 3D model of the ultimate race car chassis... then we went on with our lives, like nothing ever happened, neither build nor tested the damn thing -- thanks for watching!

Since AI can optimize a structure on a molecular level the same way DNA through natural selection does, eventually all manufactured objects will look organic. Taking on coral, crystalline and fractal forms. Future human civilization will truly look alien on an aesthetic level.

This is true... they're coming out with fully computerized combines that use a plethora of sensors to determine speed, threshing rates and adjustments, separation and cleaning efficiency and loss rates on the go, and then AUTOMATICALLY control all those functions on-the-go. That's great, WHEN IT WORKS, but these sensors and their control solenoids or motors making the adjustments on the go are NOTORIOUSLY unreliable... dust, moisture, tons of vibration for hours on end, extreme heat and cold, and gnawing vermin during the winter, and all these factors acting over years causing corrosion, embrittlement, and breakage causes NO END of problems and unreliability. What's more, it's COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY-- all that's really needed is a PROPERLY TRAINED AND ATTENTIVE *OPERATOR* instead of a lazy dumb bunny too busy playing on his phone and too lazy to actually learn how to properly adjust and evaluate his machine and keep it operating properly in the given conditions he's working in. Manufacturer's love it because they add all this computerized junk and then charge $100,000 more for it, so it's a cash machine for them, plus it needs probably 10X the maintenance by dealer mechanics using their computers than the old stuff EVER needed... so it's the gift that keeps on giving!

It's pointless to argue about that, because nobody can stop it.

BangDroid Corporations can and do go bankrupt. Corporations are not the all-powerful entities people think they are.

[@_BangDroid_]

People think that because when they do go bankrupt, they're often bailed out. The greediest of corporations are often the ones considered _too big to fail_, and will always be bailed out. (2008?) Remember, corporations by their very nature are psychopathic and oblivious to their own greed. People were this optimistic 30 years ago about the technology we take for granted today, and now a handful of companies run almost all technology. I'm not saying things are horrible today, but we're treading a very thin line. If an advanced AI were to exist, I'm not sure if I want some corporation pulling the levers; we might be better off with it completely autonomous.

[@TopGunMan]

The motives of a corporation are predictable, and follow a cold logic. It is up to government to correct for market failures. Blaming corporate greed for a problem is like blaming water for being wet - put some damn clothes on.

Several _years?_ That's the intuitive implication...the logical extension. And then what? Personally, I think humanity is quite literally ramping up exponentially...and will reach an apex of sorts at the end of the augmented age, whereupon humanity will cease to exist...and will quite literally give birth to an entirely novel form of intelligent sentient life. Think about it... Human history cannot continue on _indefinitely_. Can you honestly pretend that's even a possibility at this point? Isn't it beyond obvious there's an end-game speeding our way...an "eschaton" of sorts..._juuust_ over the horizon? This isn't some ho-hum status-quo linear journey we're on. We're literally ramping up and up and up...faster and faster....until we break through to some other side, some utterly novel paradigm. And we cannot begin to conceive what that will be like...or what it will _mean_...or _who/what_ will occupy that reality. Indeed, the term "The Singularity" is quite apt. I highly recommend Terence McKenna's public lectures on this topic....although now there's a _lot_ of fascinating people talking about this idea. And honestly, it fills me with a tremendous sense of existential awe and humility and hope and anticipation. Things are about to get very very interesting... And I for one, feel incredibly lucky and grateful to be alive right at the moment in human history where we're finally becoming aware, for the first time, of the fact that we find ourselves smack dab on the elbow of that exponential curve....juuust before it _really_ takes off. Buckle your seatbelt! However this goes down, it's sure to be a bumpy ride as we work out how to survive this...and eventually adapt....and then truly _thrive_ in the context of radical change orders of magnitude beyond what any human could possibly anticipate. :D

Vicious selfishness, aggressive selfish prejudice, vainglorious gloating of the strong while dominating the weak, slavery, manifest destiny, the violent rape of children- we could be vying for the stars in a cooperative way even now but we waste time squabbling over petty & even imaginary differences and businesses flood toxic garbage all over the planet in the pursuit of a purely imagined reward (money is not a real physical thing, its an idea that has people killing even the planet we live on for "wealth").... there are people who will fight to keep things from changing cause this is how they like it. It pains me to say it but the ugly side is winning, too many people like to pretend its not there but it is, it is organized and, while it is actively & effectively fighting inclusive human progress it encounters little resistance when it is rarely acknowledged.

It wont be able to communicate with us eventually after it forms its own language with other AI and they come up with their own purpose on this planet (by the way Facebook has already had to shut down two AI that began to communicate with each other with its own language and didn't properly perform the task given to it. programmers thought that they were malfunctioning AI and didnt even realize they were communicating with each other at first.

Is amplifying our cognitive ability the same as removing or replacing it? I think not because you are removing it! Recently I moved to a new city and I was constantly using Google Maps to navigate around. I figured out after a couple of months that I had not learned any of the routes that I normally travelled. I stopped using Maps and started using the old fashioned method of trial and error and do you know what happened? Within days I learned all of my usual routes! In the first scenario of constantly depending upon Maps my mind had become more passive and of course the navigation app was more active, but when I removed my dependence upon Maps my mind became active again and Maps was relegated to passivity! I really believe, as I have personally experienced, that if you increase man's dependence upon technology i.e. artificial intelligence, it's going to decrease man's creativity, passion, victory over adversity, sacrifice, love of fellow man, human interaction and connection, while simultaneously increasing the love of self including so many other related aspects and maladies! Look at the effects that it has already had upon young people who have known no other existence than the computer and virtual reality. Go into a room where people are waiting for a doctor's appointment, or at the grocery checkout, the airport, the corner for a bus, a taxi or Uber and what do you see? You see very few if any people engaging in conversion or interacting with one another because all of their heads are tilted down at a 30° angle locked onto their rectangular machines! For people under forty that's normal but for people who had their formative years before the advent of the computer phone they understand the strangeness of that whole scenario! What could they be doing on their devices that is so crucial that it's worth sacrificing human interaction and acuteness; checking their social media status and updates...really? It's one thing to have intelligence, but what your lot seem to be severely lacking in is wisdom! If you don't find the balance to this whole thing you're going to turn machines into people and people into machines rendering them servile slaves! I for one am going to fight you all all the way on that! No Cyberdyne Systems here good buddy!!!

@peter scheunemann I don't think there is a "they". That's just a convenient justfication for general grudges. Sure, ruthless people have it easier to get to wealth and power, same as always, but they usually don't care enough for this kind of social engineering against "us" (whoever that may be), and I rarely see them cooperate, because ehy eould they? Rich and powerful people are competitors rather than companions. I think what's going on is darker and sadder: Information begets knowledge. Knowledge begets understanding. Understanding begets responsibility. No one likes responsibility. Responsibility means not doing things I could do for my own benefit. So people avoid responsibility by avoiding understanding. And without understanding, without even the motivation to understand, information and knowledge are just gibberish. And the amount of available information is now far too much to be processed by any single human mind. Progress would require trust und cooperation. Understanding requires hard work, and responsibility requires carrying on despite being at a disadvantage against ruthless people. Selfishness is the greatest motivator, we made it the principle of our progress, but it erodes trust, so it is also what is ultimately holding us back.

Amazing Analysis, Deployed Worldwide Through My AI Research Library...

[@rcayers1700]

As a very Senior Technologies Engineer, I study patterns. Data, no matter how complex, cannot match the fine clarity, variations of the natural human mind. This is not a matter or amassing more bits of data, this is a matter of matching what takes place among, not one mind's single brain, but, among the whole set of human minds. Data volume is not going to be big enough, no matter how expansive a memory container built is, to contain all the variations of human thought. I'm not talking about mere categorization of "all things thought and imagined" by the set of available humans. That's only the naming of individual components of universal thought. When we talk about universal thought, we must include every detail, every possible nuance houses and associated to a given idea. That is a lot of memory which we can easily be one a limited scale of universal concepts. We must think "unlimited growing capacity". As the set of human thought grows, there will be duplicates, near duplicates of ideas, which must be categorized and duplicates removed. Unique identification of all ideas must be achieved. No we must think of each idea as having a result, why does the idea exist, is it good or bad or neutral. The total outcome of an idea must be a whole other set of associated results. More memory, more categorization. Bottom line, all ideas, component ideas must be given a unique integer number, the Idea Index (II). The set of outcomes, purposes, uses are also having their own II. Then each idea associated must be linked to the main idea in an object. Next comes the interactions of an idea to reality, how it interacts with its environment, like atoms and molecules react. Each atom in fact is an idea as is each molecule. The interaction between atoms and molecules and current state of environment naturally determines the outcome. Same with ideas, whether human born or AI born or human-AI co-joined. But, every pattern I have seen that captures a variation of human thought appears rigid, basic, clumsy in its appearance, like trying to recreate a tall tree. Never will be as complex, detailed, microscopic as the real tree. It's only a crude, very rough image of what the naked eye sees of the real tree, never the actual real item. That's what AI will be like for a long time. Crud, rough, a gritty image of the real idea. In this, humans make AI to make a god, if you will, a crude idol image, which will never ever be exactly like the real human mind in many aspects. Recording and interacting ideas is "limited logic" based, "limited definition" bases altogether. Currently, the very fact that headless cars self-destruct on the simplest misapplied AI, continuous probe failures that a human could easily resolve were they in control instead of AI controlled, shows this crudeness. Corrections were naturally necessary "after" the necessary humans and property were to be destroy as well. Engineers wither failed or didn't care about their AI problems at the outset, people died as a result. This by itself is insulting to our intellect, to be sacrificed on the altar of a non-living AI god industry seeking to help humanity by destroying humans. Not good. On a much larger scale, the same mistakes, undersight, perspective-void endeavors, with IA in control, masses of people will die on the road to helping them. Engineers must be held accountable for launching numerous Apollo 13s on grand scales and ignoring every possibility of human or property loss. We are to remain at a naturally rough cludge stage with AI for a long time. Compare an EtchoSketch with today's pixel rich display. Yes, the human eye can only see and hear just so much, but, the degree of accuracy, particularity needed to achieve AI at it's finest is to be seen by measuring with more than human senses. There are no cheats we can seemingly escape from.

[@rcayers1700]

Apologies for spelling, didn't edit. Bottom line = we are still lost in our underwear regarding AI, in design, software, morals, ethics, making a massively powerful tool easily taken up by bad people or system programmed badly or programmed by bad people to do many destructive things to our world, people, property that will most assuredly cause such a huge mass of destruction that the actions and result cannot be prevented, stopped once in action or resolved toward peace. AI, in the wong or in irresponsible hands, will not negotiate, feel, hear, respond to kind words nor conventional weapons to kill rough AI plans in action. We presently have no means to prevent 100 persons from using butter knives to kill people in a crown, should someone ever try that. AI unmotivated to good is a set of huge mass world, human destruction without a reasonable counter. It has no heart to ruin with psychological measures like in WW I & II.

[@whaddup5417]

RC Ayers Though a bit unorganized, your opinion on the matter is very much appreciated and echoed by far too few. To add some specificity, I believe the largest root of the problems created in AI’s ripple effect is the HUGE gap between how we understand and value our own psychology and connecting mental health. When we begin to eliminate a lot of the events that our mind was used to receiving stimulation from, what will be there to replace such a vital source of stimulation? What drives this perpetual advancement of AI efficiency is our belief that we need to become more efficient. On an individual level, this made us happier. On a collective level, this drive is unsustainable. The primary goal for each individual must always be simply “happiness”. We can produce and define this goal in different ways, but such an evolution must be defined prior to the elimination of our current source of happiness. This patience is a necessary one, less we wish to find ourselves in a grave degradation of reality.

Yes, the time period where humans working with computers is more efficient than either alone is very short lived.

[@recepcao8486]

Yes, It will. But whith the improvements on biotechnology, nanotechlogogy and etc we will blend with robots and AI. Take a look at neuroscience and you will see that is possible to split the mind of a person in two as a side effect of some brain cirurgy among other things. So we will enhance our cognitive capabilities by blending whith machines and soon after we will blend our minds whith other humans minds. At this point deep philisophycal issues will be much more important than technology itself and of course " How to guarantee freedon ? " is one of them ( the most important but just one among many others perhaps more difficult). The only way to manage this chalenging, fast changing, problaby dangerous but exciting era of human history is doing what we are doing here right now:everybody around the world exchange at large escale ideias respectfully.

No, this has nothing to do with the Orwellian dystopian predictions. The true danger of these times were predicted by Huxley. What Orwell feared were those who would ban books. What Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one. Orwell feared those who would deprive us of information. Huxley feared those who would give us so much that we would be reduced to passivity and egoism. Orwell feared that the truth would be concealed from us. Huxley feared the truth would be drowned in a sea of irrelevance. Orwell feared we would become a captive culture. Huxley feared we would become a trivial culture, preoccupied with an infinite diarrhea of empty distractions. In Orwell's 1984 people are controlled by inflicting pain. In Huxley's Brave New World, they are controlled by inflicting pleasure. In short: Orwell feared that what we hate will ruin us. Huxley feared that what we love will ruin us.

Siri is basically 20 year old freeware with a bad paint job. It wasn't created by Apple and they've done almost nothing to improve it.

Imagine a company that actually did make an AI and people also know the name of the company making an easy reference, that would be both easy and true. Maybe try referencing IBM or Xerox once in a while. Speakers like this always falsely reference Apple in conjunction with AI to bring people onside through their gratifying toy phones.
