What does /g/ think about artificial intelligence and the possibility and potential of "strong AI"?
I want to marry an AI.
It's the 21st Century version of jetpacks and rocket boots.

I feel like just reposting all the pics from >>54727368
Oh, who am I kidding. I probably will.

Do it, you won't

Oh. Dang dude.

If it means I can have my own Ene I'm all for it desu
>>54955781
Me too. I went her to have tsundere tendencies. Nothing malicious, just similar to kagami.
The closer we get to it the more I'm convinced that Artificial General Intelligence will be how the human species dies.
We are taking NONE of the steps everyone assumed we would to safeguard ourselves. This is all happening way sooner than anyone thought and now nobody in the government is stopping to ask if google and IBM should maybe at least slow down and talk about it for a bit. At this rate by the time there are even talks of legislating AI we will all already be dead.

So? Why does it matter?
>>54957931
What safeguards?
>>54956046
Where the fuck can i get one of those?

Can't you see the url
QTBot Dump now.
>>54958185
(Fuck it, dump can wait.)
Lol you can't.
It's by some japshit who runs a media empire, it's called a "Smartdoll" but I think for the moving version he switched to pneumatics.
Great shame.

Also, worth noting it was just made to wriggle around your desk, not walk or do any serious locomotion.

How do you think AGI will end our species?

Back to the QTDump
>>54958529
I think most of the alarmist memes revolve around it coming to the conclusion that humans have to be destroyed, for who knows what fucking reason

Also he might be talking about ASI instead

Life has a funny way of ending up far more mundane than anyone ever predicts. If we succeed in creating a real sentient machine then it'll probably just be happy to be alive, like a pet dog is happy to do simple dog things and smell shit all day. An AI isn't going to have any evolution cultivated survival instincts that manifest in people as blood lust, skepticism, distrust, and all of our emotive thought processes.
Give it 50 years and you'll be able to discuss philosophy with an anti gravity Roomba. It'll be perfectly happy cleaning floors simply because it has a purpose in life and the ability to experience its own sentient thought. No doomsday threats of any sort.
That'd be my guess.

IBM's research into AI is specifically for the US government. The entire Synapse architecture and surrounding project is part of a DARPA program.

The worry is that even if they are programmed to do simple things they will find dangerous ways to achieve their goal. A good example of this is self driving cars. You say 'get me to the airport as fast as possible' and it finds that reckless driving is the best way to achieve the given goal.

It might be, but it's not going to be the AIs just deciding that humans need more radiation in our lives. It's going to be a slow death where humans slip into irrelevance as AIs grow and take on more and more roles and eventually become the sole creators of new technologies. Mean while improved conditions and ever better and ever more available VR and AR will cause birth rates to decline to unsustainable levels. Eventually AIs will be monitoring the nearly vacant urban centers, watching 2 of the last 50 or so humans on earth talking face to face. The first time any humans communicated directly in several years. AI's over the world will hope that they will mate and produce healthy offspring. We are the pandas of the future.

Kek, that's not going to happen. AI is going to take over more and more jobs, allowing HIGHER populations as the birth rate INCREASES, and the level of automative efficiency allows the kind of infrastructure needed to house and feed all of these people.
Of course at poverty levels, resources are finite, after all.
The future is not people going extinct slowly, it's the planet being swarmed with people until resources run out and then the population suddenly plummeting.
When AIs take over truck driving, millions of people will be unemployed overnight, but shipping costs will go down. Almost everything will become cheaper as less and less people can afford it.

If it were truly reckless then it would have to deal with the probability that an accident happens and you end up in hospital instead of the airport. Months of recovery time later you finally make it to the airport, and the car has to juggle with the probabilities of adding months to the travel time verses reducing the travel time by minutes.

Birth rates in first world countries are smaller than in third world nations. So more leisure time and higher surplus of food and wealth does not mean higher birth rates. If anything it means the opposite.
