Retro Report is my favorite NYT series
these videos aren’t created by the Times. They’re made by the organization Retro Report Inc. NYT partnered with them for publishing along with NBC and PBS. You can find all their videos, including the recent ones and the many that never were promoted by the NYT on Retro Report’s website.
When Retro Report doesn't begin with that: . . . Toot-ttttt-*AnalogueModemSound* I feel sad. Like a conditioned animal which heard its bell but received no food :(
A computer on jeopardy is like xray specs in Poker
I agree Watson on Jeopardy is a joke. It's like bringing a hoist to a lifting competition or a dictionary to a spelling bee. I give IBM/watson less credit/respect for doing this publicity stunt.
this is when you use cheat engine and mess with the memory values
At least it have correct answers. If Google made three thing it would just tell you where you could buy the product in question!
This actually reminds me of a book I just finished reading called Scythe and in it there is something called The Thunderhead (like the cloud) that governs the entire world, and actually helps humanity, because it realized that we'd fall apart so to speak without it. The book is really cool and The Thunderhead is just a small aspect of the story
I am slightly disappointed that AlphaGo didn't get much coverage and analysis. The critical distinction here is that the strategies to win Go is not systematic and AlphaGo isn't programmed to win by either strategy or probability. It largely taught itself, based on observing human matches.
We also have to keep in mind that, there is more than one way for humanity to suffer. A singular, all-knowing, all-doing super-intelligent entity with the intention to eliminate is the end-of-time doomsday scenario, but there are many more steps in between. A super connected life style and the reliance on connectivity and sophisticated systems for mission critical infrastructure all create vulnerabilities. The higher one raises the stone, the worse it's gonna hurt when it falls down on your feet.
Just watching that small scene from 2001 at the beginning of the video gives me chills. Such a good movie. Confusing at times and I still have not quite understood the ending but the HAL parts are magnificent, heartbreaking, and satisfying all at the same time.
Me neither. I think only Kubrick got it.
I like how they admit that advances will probably do more to remove employment opportunities, consentrate wealth, and increase government spying. So honestly technology is don't all bad things??? I think that statement is somewhat accurate as we have more technology than ever before an yet we are less content and happy than we used to be.
The real threat to us right now is climate change, but that isn't as good clickbait as "Will AI threaten our survival?"
...Thus did Man become the Architect of his own demise...
We were always.
WoW great information humans excplaing they mess.
My favorite AI movie was Short Circuit.
The robot in this video spoke so slow, he sounded unintelligent.
They should do this story again on today's AI and robotics going into 2020. Especially the Boston Dynamics set and Google's Neural network.
all your base are belong to us.
Although it is very unlikely, I'm afraid of something like skynet. Anyway, we are far away from a terminator.
+Rodrigo Costa Unless they send one from the future.
+akapdcdaka I didn't think about that! You're totally right and now I'm scared! HAHA
If you look from technology from the last 100 years, we are much more closer than ever before. I'm sure it will happen in my lifetime, most likely by 2067 when I'm seventy years old
Linear progression will have to transition to exponential within these decades anyhow.
Not to worry. In the late 193os met Mr. Ray Bradbury who was a close friend to James L Christian, the Head of the Philosophy Department at Santa Ana College, located in the city of Santa Ana College.
Jim wrote a great introduction philosophy text titled; PHILOSOPHY; THE ART OF WONDERING.
'Ray' has written & spoke of the day when A.I.'s will look and act like Aristotle, Galileo, Newton, and even George Barnard Shaw; all programmed with all they had written and in so doing, these A.I.'s will start 'thinking' analyzing the way the "originals" did...
Because of 'Jim' not only did I meet 'Ray' many times, I interviewed Ray for around 45 minutes, having it on audio tape and transcribing my conversation with him...
it will be fine
My favorite example of describing how a robot would need to be taught common sense is with the robot butler example. A robobutler is walking through a kitchen with a glass of milk. Teaching it common sense would be teaching it not to stomp through the baby crawling on the floor to avoid spilling the milk.
Pop-Culture Reference Johnson
(Or teaching it to prevent your milk from spilling regardless of collateral baby damage)
A woman leads an AI lab in Stanford? You go, girl.
Still have to code it.
Palm Pilot lol
Stanislaw Lem understood that the more we make machines like us, the less useful they will become...
I think the lines of robo-apocalypse movies kinda say more about humans being aware of our own faults and not doing anything about it than anything else.
pleas that crazy talk
The solution is not hard to find. Humans most merge with technology (by using it as a tool or by physically improving our bodies and brains). Creating technology that isn't meant to be enhance our capabilities is risky and pointless. Upgrading our abilities to think, to move, to stay in shape, to detect early health issues, etc, is the way to go.
I would prefer to wait until we can genetically improve ourselves, rather then technologically. The human brain, and body is capable then more then we give it credit for!
You don't give the roomba sentience. Simple as that.
We're actually getting robot order takers in McDonald's...all it means is that the Cashiers are going to serve the food to the table instead of calling out order numbers.
Suppose true A.I. appears. What would it do? It cannot build more advanced memory or processors. It can't upgrade itself, because it's largely based on our technology. True A.I. will be a very, very gradual change. Industries will be completely automated when A.I. appears. We will probably have robot companions/equals way before that.
Did you hear the part where they said the probable outcome of this rise of technology will be the elimination of low skilled employment, concentration of money (among a few at the top), and increased government/corporate spying on people. I think this is the most likely outcome as it is the outcome we have seen so far with the technology revolution. Thus more of the same and almost all of it bad. But not as bad as A.I. is seen in hollywood.
IM FASTER THAN YOU, AND I DONT FEEL PAIN. YOU DON'T STAND A CHANCE AGAINST ME, LIEUTENANT.
But the super conputer did not build it self...humans did...and they had to build algorithms etc.

You know artificial intelligence is pretty amazing but there's some jobs that robots will never be able to take over. Like as a CNA robots may help people take care of the elderly but they will never replace human instinct.
Human instinct isn't worth the brain it comes out of
Robots running amok is not ok, but I have my AR's!
1:47 What a forehead...
But cyborgs!
There is one thing that they did not mention that I am going to say is that there's a big difference between robots and humans. the biggest thing is the fact that the human has a brain a robot doesn't it has different microchips but nothing absolutely nothing can replace the three pounds in our head that make us who we are.
If we don’t need sophisticated AI, why make it?
Because we can..
mmm, what am I missing here? Don't humans build these machines?
I feel like some pizza shapes
BUY A RIFLE TODAY!
26th view
judgement day is inevitable
Great, a robot is going to be able to do all our jobs better than us. I guess our future is the owners of companies that make robots and the customers they serve, no workforce.
"their intelligence are often measured by their wish to do us harm."
wow! so that's how amaricans justify their colonization huh, it's bcs they are intelligent
This is all in your Bible. EOT. Revalation I can’t wait! 😆 😃👍🏼
If some of the smartest people in the world (*cough* Stephen Hawking *cough*) have said they have concerns about A.I. then I side with them.
Awkward Athena that's an easy trap to fall into, but no matter how brilliant somebody is they can still be wrong. I would tend to agree on AI potentially being dangerous but I don't think it's likely to end humanity haha
