Artificial Intelligence

[legendsofaranna]

One day, robots can really do things like humans?

[DigitalJunkie]

I don't think they can do everything! When it comes to Intuition, Imagination. These things can not be just copied by robots.

Only because humans don't yet completely understand how the human mind works.

The human mind is such an amazing thing.

It hurts my head to think about it. Must be a security measure.

[Star Guitar]

I don't think so. I think artificial intelligence will develop to a point that robots will find their own unique ways to do things. What I mean is, I believe there is too much of a focus on creating distinctly 'human' intelligence in a machine. Perhaps the human mind, as fantastic as it may be, is not the right frame of reference for a machine to emulate. It's a futile effort, like installing Linux in a lab monkey. The formats are too foreign and incompatible, and it will never work.

I think the only way that such a thing could be possible is if you were to use technology to match the processing complexity of the human brian, and even still, you really only have a human brain made from the entire inventory of a radio shack.

I believe intelligence can be cultivated in machines and programs (or both) by allowing them to develop intelligences native to their own structures. You want to spam a forum you:

A: Teach an A.I. to type and teach it what the internet and a forum is and how to register and post on a forum and the given language of the forum and how to make people mad.

B: Integrate a bot with the script format, several methods to exploit the forum, and loads of random crap to post. Throw in a script to help decipher those blurry letter puzzles and you're set.

Both could be feasible, but one is already adapted to it's enviornment. A.I. A as a hardware unit could have the advantage of spamming the forum for you and then cleaning the house. However, one has to decide if teaching one machine to do both is really worth it.

I could go on, but I am not an A.I unit, and I want to go to bed.

People always are up in arms about the whole idea of a powerful A.I.

I've always thought the idea rediculous as there's so much code that would be required at this point in time for them to comprehend and process data that they gather. And why is it that everyone thinks that they would attack us? Because the movies tell you so?

I believe the day as just around the corner. An A.I. doesnt have to be contained in an individual structure, but can be a larger container where the knowledge is distributed to the robots as machines for their individual functions.

In a household, you could have an interactive A.I., say "Mother" . . . an intelligence would co-manage the operations of worker bots, therefore the container housing the brains does not have to be small enough to be mobile.

In the late 80's I wrote conceptual diagrams and rough schematics of Voice Interactive Home Automation Systems that you could expand as needed. Essentially, you could buy the systems at Home Depot or Radio Shack.

What really is the distinguishing factors for whether or not "robots can really do things like humans" is if they simply follow lines of code, or do this in a decision making way.

I think it's already started happening. I have an iRobot Roomba, and it cleans all my floors for me while I'm away. Sure, I have to empty it and it still needs me to operate in a sense, because I still want to control where it goes exactly, but it can make it's way back to it's dock and recharge itself and everything!

Of course AI may not have our intuition, but it's probably too soon to rule out anything!

[Auggie2k]

The human mind is such an amazing thing.

True! I read before that if we actually used 100% of our brain, considering what we can do already, we would be able to levitate and speak telepathically. How cool would that be? I would used my telepathy to make people levitate! Ha! Oh the possibilities! Shaving peoples eyebrows while they sleep would be pathetic to what you could do to them with levitation!

I'm not sure that it would be such a decision making process. More of a mathematical procedure.
If not (A) then (B). It could be argued that human thought process is pretty much the same, other than those of us that go: If not (A) then (B)... but I think I'll try (X). But then again.. human thought process is often flawed. :icon_sunn
