The Debate About "Real" A.I

Many People Said/ wrote:

A.I. Is not possible!

Well, it is (sometime in the not-so-near future). The human brain is just stored memories, electricity (nerves), problem solving, and speaking. Take out the uneeded stuff, (going to the bathroom, sleeping, etc.) and you have AI. Make feelings, by helping the A.I understand emotion. Teach it that, and you have somthing near-human.

"Now, what would power all of this? No way a modern computer can do that?"

Correct, it would take a supercomputer to power all of that. Like somthing out of Transformers. But, they don't exist!

In the future they might. Technology is progressing quickly. Ask any old person, most likely 67+
"When I was a young kid like you, we had no fancy-smancy calculator or gameboys or even that er, whatcha call 'em? Darn it, I lost my teeth again!"

(no offence to any older people, there)

You get my point, right?

So, long story short, real A.I is possible in the not-so-near future.

Now, I hope you like this, because it took me a while to write it.

I didn't post this in my purple-ish color so it's easy to read.

Re: The Debate About "Real" A.I

I agree, because even our own brain is only so powerful. It doesn't have unlimited power. So technically, even though we are nowhere NEAR the capabilities of creating AI, it is possible.


Back. For now. Maybe.

"I think, thereforth I am"

Will the AI think?
Will we give the AI a brain just as we ourselves have, and will it use it's brain like we do, and will it be?

Artificial Intelligence. It's basically something we've made which is alive and thinks for itself.

An AI that can do everything a human can? That would take infinite "if" blocks in scratch. And a supercomputer to run it.

Re: The Debate About "Real" A.I

Impossible with modern equipment... maybe possible in near future, but still will not be as good as a real brain. Why? Try thinking up a script that lets a program think up 'ideas'. Ideas are non-existent in the binary world of computers  wink

A.Is can never be as complex as a human. How can you recreate something you don't know about?

HAL: I know I've made some very poor decisions recently, but I can give you my complete assurance that my work will be back to normal. I've still got the greatest enthusiasm and confidence in the mission. And I want to help you. [HAL's shutdown]
I'm afraid. I'm afraid, Dave. Dave, my mind is going. I can feel it. I can feel it. My mind is going. There is no question about it. I can feel it. I can feel it. I can feel it. I'm a... fraid. Good afternoon, gentlemen. I am a HAL 9000 computer. I became operational at the H.A.L. plant in Urbana, Illinois on the 12th of January 1992. My instructor was Mr. Langley, and he taught me to sing a song. If you'd like to hear it I can sing it for you.
Dave Bowman: Yes, I'd like to hear it, HAL. Sing it for me.
HAL: It's called "Daisy."
[sings while slowing down]
HAL: Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do. I'm half crazy all for the love of you. It won't be a stylish marriage, I can't afford a carriage. But you'll look sweet upon the seat of a bicycle built for two.

My dad's over 70, and he's fine. He has perfect teeth, and uses computers. Mostly to watch baseball, though.  tongue
And black&white TV wasn't that far back. Yep, after some research, the first television that worked was made in 1928, 83 years ago. In around 1950, though, ordinary people bought televisions.

Re: The Debate About "Real" A.I

(heads up, I am not liable for any long portal-related rants  tongue )

AI is not impossible. but we are at the point at which  many of our research borders on morality.  For example, AI could be somewhat beneficial, but what happens if they become TOO intelligent? In Portal, (I warned you) GLaDOS ends up killing all of the workers at Aperture science. Now imagine if GLaDOS was able to create more clones of herself? We wouldn't have much hope against a bunch of hyper-intelligent things that can't die.

Also, Portal guns. (I still warned you) Sure, it could save lives, but what happens if a criminal gets one?
*Shoots portal into house*
*shoots portal down*
*gets rich*

Anyways, If we have AI, we would never be able to realize its full potential. If an AI gets more intelligent than a human, I wouldn't count on being the dominant species for much longer.


Edit: on second thought, we might still be safe from invasion.

Re: The Debate About "Real" A.I

Ha ha, real AI will of course happen.
Look at this: A criminal that hates the world is intelligent.
The future.
He makes a robot. He makes the robot have knives and guns, and a motion/heat sensor. He makes it so that if the robot sees movement/heat, it attacks. Stuff like this exist-Motion sensors and heat sensors that work as alarms. It wouldn't be very hard to integrate in a robot. The thing is that it would probably waste a lot of money, and the movement part (To make the robot move) would be hard.

No, before that. But are we talking film or tv?

Television (Black and white). Actually, the first one was made before 1928, but it was pretty messed up (1923, I think...). And they got famous at 1940.

...you...

If you have a basic transmission system (binary..) and use it to transmit sets of signals that can be interpreted as commands (...more binary... ASM as well...) and a source of external feel (such can be done by sensors and binary) and lastly emotions (lots and lots of ASM), then you have A.I.


Back in my day.... there were no laws that censored the internet... now, there are.... nah.
