The Spooky Secret Behind Artificial Intelligence’s Incredible Power
Spookily powerful artificial intelligence (AI) systems may work so well because their structure exploits the fundamental laws of the universe, new research suggests. The new findings may help answer a longstanding mystery about a class of artificial intelligence that employ a strategy called deep learning. These deep learning or deep neural network programs, as they’re called, are algorithms that have … Continue reading
60 Minutes Correspondent Charlie Rose Interviews…A Robot?
What happens when Charlie Rose attempts to interview a robot named “Sophia” for his 60 Minutes report on artificial intelligence (video at the end of the article) “I’ve been waiting for you,” Sophia tells 60 Minutes correspondent Charlie Rose. They’re mid-interview, and Rose reacts with surprise. “Waiting for me?” he asks. “Not really,” she responds. “But it makes a good … Continue reading

7 Days of Artificial Intelligence
If God created his universe in 7 days; what could AI do to ours? The arrival of artificial intelligence promises the Intelligence Explosion – where singularity would lead to an exponential increase in A.I. capabilities. This Super Intelligence could lead to the arrival of an omniscient, omnipresent, omnipotent being. How would humanity receive this new entity? Would it be omnibenevolent? … Continue reading
New Study Warns of Apocalypse Within Five Years
via MysteriousUniverse A team of researchers at Oxford University, the Global Challenges Foundation and the Global Priorities Project recently issued a report, “Global Catastrophic Risks.” In it, they discuss and issue rankings for events than can eliminate ten-percent or more of the human population within the next five years. Actually, the report suggests that a person may be five times … Continue reading

Stop Killer Robots Before it is Too Late Say Scientists
Davos (Switzerland) (AFP) – The world must act quickly to avert a future in which autonomous robots with artificial intelligence roam the battlefields killing humans, scientists and arms experts warned at an elite gathering in the Swiss Alps. Rules must be agreed to prevent the development of such weapons, they said at a January 19-23 meeting of billionaires, scientists and … Continue reading
Brain-Like Computer Chip Developed by Chinese Scientists
HANGZHOU, Dec. 24 (Xinhua) — The human brain is the world’s most sophisticated computer, but a group of Chinese scientists have developed a computer chip that works much like the brain. Jointly developed by scientists from Hangzhou Dianzi University and Zhejiang University in east China’s Zhejiang Province, the new chip, named “Darwin,” was revealed earlier this week after more than … Continue reading
When Machines Learn Like Humans –“Our Last Great Invention?
People learning new concepts can often generalize successfully from just a single example, yet machine learning algorithms typically require tens or hundreds of examples to perform with similar accuracy. People can also use learned concepts in richer ways than conventional algorithms—for action, imagination, and explanation. Researchers have created a computer model that captures humans’ unique ability to learn new concepts … Continue reading
