Ya'll realize we are the LAST generation of humans on planet earth

Do you believe in the coming technological singularity?

Artificial Intelligence is getting better each year. A few years back an AI called Watson (created by IBM) beat the best human champions in Jeopardy. This was considered a milestone because it showed that computers could master the complexity of human language. Last year an AI created by Google called AlphaGo beat the best human champion in the Ancient Chinese game of Go. This game is way more complicated than chess. In fact, its so complicated that there are more possible moves in the game Go than there are atoms in the universe. Thus, the artificial intelligence powering Google's AlphaGo computer couldn't just do brute force calculations to beat its human opponent like IBM's Deep Blue did back in 1997 when it beat the "Michael Jordan of Chess" Garry Kasparov for the first time.

What the AI created by Google did was to learn how to play the Ancient Chinese game of Go like a human would. Then it had to practice playing the game against itself in thousands of simulations. And after all that practice it was able to easily beat the best human champion. This was considered a seminal moment in artificial intelligence history. Because it showed the shift from just brute force calculations to actual machine learning. It showed us that its possible for a computer to learn like we learn and then to apply those learning skills in super human ways.

We are not far off from the singularity folks. A theoretical moment in the future when artificial intelligence become so much more intelligent than all humans on earth put together that we have no idea what will happen next. For those that are skeptical about this coming technological singularity, just watch the video below:

Deep Learning is a new field within Machine Learning. In the past 4 years researchers have been training neural networks with a very large number of layers. Algorithms are learning how to classify images to a much greater accuracy than before: you can give them an image of a cat or a dog and they will be able to tell the difference. Traditionally this has been nearly impossible for computers but easy for humans.

Deep Learning algorithms are trained by giving them a huge number of images, and telling them what object is in each image. Once it has seen (e.g.) a hundred types of dog heads 1000 times from a hundred angles, it has been 'trained'. Now you can give it new images and it will spot dog heads within the images, or tell you that there are none at all. It also can say how unsure it is.

It was always hard to tell what the algorithms were 'seeing' or 'thinking' when we gave them new images. So in June 2015 Google Engineers released a method for visualising what the algorithms saw.. Towards the end of June 2015 they released their code, so people could see what the trained neural networks were seeing on any image they wanted.

Listen to this classical music composed in the style of Bach by a deep-learning machine

A few days ago an AI made these songs more complex musical scores:

  • Aiva is an AI composer that creates musical pieces used as soundtracks for film directors, advertising agencies, and even game studios.
A New AI Can Write Music as Well as a Human Composer


The soundcloud:
Aiva



This thing is going to start producing chart instrumentals for artists songs real soon. Maybe even will start singing too.

The problem with AI is that it makes humans more and more useless, not more useful like other forms of technology. It's not a game changer it's a game ender. Game over.

What happens when AI develops to the point when humans become completely useless from an economic standpoint? 100% unemployment? Why is the government not regulating this technology?

Why develop a technology that makes even the developers obsolete? Who benefits from this?

I can't see any good coming from this brehs.:sadcam:

Governments everywhere should ban it or heavily regulate it before it means the end of life as we know it. And I'm dead serious.

Robots gonna take over the dope game too. They gonna run off on the plug several times, what they gonna do, shoot em?:merchant:

Very idiotic to create artificial beings that are more powerful then the creators in every way except for having emotions. We have movies alluding to our demise. But they'll still go for it anyway.

Universal Basic Income. Pay people for not being able to work. Because this shyt will also take over very high IQ jobs.

Then we're free to follow our passions without having to worry about putting a roof on our head. shyt there are machines out there building 3d printed houses right now.

We all agree on something:
Conservatives, liberals, techies, and social activists all love universal basic income: Has its time come?

I could already see people who pride themselves working 60 hrs/week going to be against this. :mjlol:
