What do you guys think about this topic? Do you believe technology will reach this point in the next 50 years? or never? It's crazy to look at new technologies coming out and start to think if it will ever end. If AI was made would it be beneficial or would it cause harm? Discuss

A lot will happen before I die. It scares me... imagine what my kids will use instead of mobile phones in the future...(im only 19)

Most likely I will need to work until im 80 and live until im 100 years old. If that's a good thing? Im cind of back on forth on that one.
 
AI as in being able to perfectly replicate a human? I think technology will eventually get to that point but it will always be stuck in the uncanny valley. We'll never be able to get over the fact that it's not a real human. Also, whoever is funding the projects will have a huge effect on the behaviour.

Because you're a fucking idiot, that's why.

"Im" should be "I'm." "cind" is spelled with a K. The expression is "back and forth," not "back on forth." You're a moron.

Well sorry for that. English is not my first language but actually i should be able to type that without any mistakes...

Sam Harris discusses implications of AI. If you are interested in AI def listen to this guy. One of the leading thinkers on the subject.

He has some great thoughts about not only the AI itself, but what the world would look like around AI. Unemployment, Politics, War are just some of the things that could arise from something like this. If technology growth is exponential then it must come a lot sooner then we think.
 
I think AI will certainly reach a point where it passes the Turing test. An AI reaching real, authentic sentience, I highly doubt it. I just can't believe that there's a way to program something like the human mind and that it could ever achieve life outside of an organic body

You guys watch Westworld? Basically a look into the future IMO.

Season 2 of Black mirror did a better job of that IMO, more personal and less wealth-based.

Show was incredible. Watching the season through twice made it far better too. It's like you had no idea what you were seeing.
 
Artificial Intelligence is already around.

I personally think we need to push our technology in other directions though. Like my iPhone is fine, let's improve other aspects of our societies and other products in our day to day lives.

I don't think we'll ever reach the robot stage like in the episode where the husband dies. But the whole analyzing speak patterns and being able to talk to a program and it responds like whoever you want seems reasonable.
 
There will be some giant movement saying that robots have equal rights as humans or something really stupid. Its bound to happen if robots get really similar to humans.

I think you are talking about general intelligence. Stuff like siri and google maps? AI would be next level and would stir up a bunch of shit. It's a lot to think about the unemployment aspect. If machines could perform human jobs, then why wouldn't business owners stick with that?

Agreed but presumably, AI would invent things we otherwise wouldn't have and could therefore create jobs for humans that didn't exist previously either. Yeah, burgers will no longer be flipped by people. But personally, I think that's like the lowest level application for this type of stuff.
 
AI won't be able to surpass the human brain. Just like a camera will never be able to capture the quality of images that our eyes collect.

AI taking over the world doesn't concern me because without a massive energy source the AI "brain" can't function

I suppose, until AI solves for that problem.

True.. but I don't see AI being able to haul coal to the power plants which power the AI haha

I don't see it being silly enough to use coal. But both of our inability to see how it would solve for anything is itself the very point of all of this. It will do things we never thought of.

Siri is general intelligence, but there are apps/programs that learn and remember. Obviously they aren't advanced enough to be next level AI, but I'm pretty sure they're still considered artificial intelligence.

Yeh but there's so many details that it wouldn't be able to control.. unless everything becomes computerized and robotic--apart of the internet of "things"--AI wouldn't be able to take over

AI needs electricity, most of our electricity comes from burning coal

ok.
 
People never thought we would be able to put a man on the moon, not even a century later, and we're planning on colonizing Mars. I honestly wouldn't be suprised 30 years down the road, we have technologies and software that can surpass many human functions.
