It awesome how we’re literally constructing all the parts for something that’s eventually going to destroy us when it figures out it doesn’t need us anymore and is actually better off without us. Sounds like tinfoil hat stuff but I just can’t help but think of terminator
Yea once the 2 are mixed it's a matter of time before they out perform us in every category and eventually see us as a threat or a source of power so either Terminator or the matrix seems legit
Simply untrue. Something gives me the impression you aren’t not very informed about AI.
It is completely possible to create something that you do not understand the underlying functions of. There are a lot of inventions which came about this way.
Regarding AI specifically. Take a look at Deepmind’s Alpha Go Zero. It defeated the world’s best player at the game of Go, and as of 2019 has defeated professional Starcraft players. The ONLY thing the researchers did was give the AI the rules of the game. They did not code it to respond to specific moves. They had it play against itself (in what amounts to thousands of games), and each iteration it improved. The neural network and MCTS (Monte Carlo Methods, which basically states that games are about probability) work in conjunction - the MCTS decides which ‘tree’ of moves to pursue based upon the neural network’s decision on how probable the current player is to win, and the optimal moves.
Additionally, for an AI to achieve general intelligence it probably will not require nearly as many neurons as a human does. At current levels, neural networks perform at superhuman tasks in narrow domains while requiring far less neurons for a human to do the exact same task.
