Chinese Scientists Develop AI ‘Prosecutor’ that Can Press its Own Charges
“Making such decisions would require a machine to identify and remove any contents of a case file that are irrelevant to a crime, without removing the useful information. The machine would also need to convert complex, ever-changing human language into a standard mathematical or geometric format that a computer could understand.” What could possibly go wrong lol By Stephen Chen … Continue reading
Ray Kurzweil, The Technological Singularity And The Future Of Humanity
Year 2047: a new beginning, or the beginning of the end for humanity? When people can’t tell the difference between artificial and human intelligence, will humans become obsolete, like the floppy disk?
