AI is coming at what price?

[Longeyes]

Ye ha AI engine being shared by Google!?!
In the article is states 'Google believes it can accelerate the evolution of AI.' Brilliant. I didn't ask for it and I'm sure none of you did we've probably got more sense.
Did know one read sci fi as a kid? Watch Terminator?? I'm no luddite we need technology to help not rule us.
Are we not going to even get a chance to decide if this is safe or not? Because it isn't.
We need to solve these problems ourselves. We are here to realise our own spiritual potential that's why life is such a bitch. Try to take that away and you are left with a dead civilization.
Google search engine works just fine thanks. I don't want it telling me what to do or taking over my life.
The infrastructure is there it's naive madness.

Google Just Open Sourced TensorFlow, Its Artificial Intelligence Engine

Tech pundit Tim O’Reilly had just tried the new Google Photos app, and he was amazed by the depth of its artificial intelligence.

O’Reilly was standing a few feet from Google CEO and co-founder Larry Page this past May, at a small cocktail reception for the press at the annual Google I/O conference—the centerpiece of the company’s year. Google had unveiled its personal photos app earlier in the day, and O’Reilly marveled that if he typed something like “gravestone” into the search box, the app could find a photo of his uncle’s grave, taken so long ago....

Is this the beginning of the end of humanity as we know it? You don’t need to be a genius to figure it out, or maybe you do? Time is irrelevant to AI. So who made who? Just throw it around in your brain for a while.

The answer may not be as simple as you think...

This is the start. Still we charge headlong into the abyss

http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/news/facebook-artificial-intelligence-ai-chatbot-new-language-research-openai-google-a7869706.html

Facebook has shut down two artificial intelligences that appeared to be chatting to each other in a strange language only they understood.

The two chatbots came to create their own changes to English that made it easier for them to work – but which remained mysterious to the humans that supposedly look after them.

The bizarre discussions came as Facebook challenged its chatbots to try and negotiate with each other over a trade, attempting to swap hats, balls and books, each of which were given a certain value. But they quickly broke down as the robots appeared to chant at each other in a language that they each understood but which appears mostly incomprehensible to humans.

The robots had been instructed to work out how to negotiate between themselves, and improve their bartering as they went along.

The actual negotiations appear very odd, and don't look especially useful:...

I can't imagine mixing the coming AI systems with Synthetic biology . . . after reading this article I feel rather speechless.

Synthetic biology and the rise of the 'spider-goats'

https://i.guim.co.uk/img/static/sys-images/Observer/Columnist/Columnists/2012/1/12/1326367701225/spider-goat2-007.jpg?width=620&quality=85&dpr=1&s=none

From the article:

In a sense, spider-goats are an extension of the farming we've been doing for 10,000 years. All livestock and arable has been carefully bred, each cross being a genetic experiment of its own. "The trouble is, you can't farm spiders," Randy says with an almost comic deadpan face. "They're very cannibalistic." He and his team took the gene that encodes dragline silk from an orb-weaver spider and placed it among the DNA that prompts milk production in the udders. This genetic circuit was then inserted in an egg and implanted into a mother goat. Now, when Freckles lactates, her milk is full of spider-silk protein.

Reminds me of the genetic lab activities on SERPO!


This may sound glib. Life forms are complex at every level. If there is one concrete thing we have learned from the billions spent on reading our own genetic code, it's that biology is messy. Scientists are often confounded by baffling "noise" in the molecules that make up living organisms, unpredictable variation set among unfathomable sophistication. Weiss and his comrades at the BioBricks Foundation want to strip out all the noise in biology and turn it into pure engineering, where organisms can be treated like machines and their inner workings are component parts.

How strong are the produced strands? Somewhere I read that feeding spiders graphene makes the webs even stronger. That may be an interesting thing to try with the goats.

As artificial intelligence continues to evolve and integrate into our lives, it's important to consider the potential threats it poses.

Hopefully they will install some sort of Asimov laws for the AI where it can't harm people, or let be people come to harm by inaction. But AI shouldn't be put in control of anything deadly, and definitely no autonomous missiles. The thing I'm worried about is AI created deep fakes. What's to keep criminal defendants from claiming all evidence against them is just deep fakes?

[Garuda]

There are several initiatives, both from within the industry and from governmental sides, to regulate AI. Suggested regulation includes things like a compulsory kill switch, a ban on weaponized AI, etc.

I've been involved in the field of AI for 30+ years. It has great potential, and most people who predict doom scenarios tend to not really know what they're talking about.

With just a few safeguards in place, those scenarios can be avoided.

The real threat is if some morons try to do the things to create such doom scenarios on purpose. The combination of trying to make AI self-aware while weaponizing it could be dangerous.

[Wally]

As a person who can't drive I look forward to the day when self driving vehicles are perfected. Until that day comes though the companies that make these vehicles must be accountable for any injuries or deaths caused from crashes of their cars and pay all medical bills or possible damages.

On the comparison of AI, Consciousness and brain waves, I asked ChatGPT if ai has a similar system of brainwaves to humans.
It replied:


Artificial intelligence (AI) systems, such as deep learning models, do not possess a biological brain like humans do, so they do not generate brainwaves in the same way. Brainwaves are a result of the complex interactions between neurons in the human brain.

However, AI systems can simulate certain aspects of brain-like activity. For example, in deep learning models, artificial neural networks (ANNs) are used to process information and make predictions or decisions. ANNs are inspired by the structure and functioning of biological neural networks in the brain. They consist of interconnected artificial neurons that transmit and process information through weighted connections.

While AI systems do not generate brainwaves, they can exhibit patterns of activity that are analogous to brainwaves in humans. For instance, during the training process of an AI model, the activation levels of artificial neurons can change over time as the model learns to recognize patterns in the data. These changes in activation levels can be seen as analogous to the dynamic patterns of electrical activity observed in brainwaves.

It's worth noting that the comparison between AI activity and brainwaves is a metaphorical one, as AI systems lack consciousness or subjective experience. Brainwaves are associated with specific mental states and activities in humans, whereas AI systems process data and perform computations based on programmed algorithms.

New Jersey high school students accused of making AI-generated pornographic images of classmates

By Tim McNicholas

WESTFIELD, N.J. -- Parents and students at Westfield High School in New Jersey say students used an app or website to make AI-generated pornographic images of their classmates.

Parents recently got an email from the principal, warning of the dangers of artificial intelligence and saying the complaints from students had sparked an investigation. Some parents turned to the Westfield Police Department.

Dorota Mani, who owns a Jersey City day care, was already worried about the impact artificial intelligence could have on kids.

"AI problem. I would call it 'AI pandemic' at this point," she said.

Well, this AI creation is very interesting!!! (unfortunately, this maybe closer to the truth then hoped!)
