Quantum computers require atoms to exist in entangled states, where changing the state of one automatically causes the other to change state too. At present, such states can be achieved only at extremely low temperatures. Lurkin got all the nitrogen atoms in his dirty diamond to change position together at a constant frequency—meaning they were held in quantum entanglement—and he did it at room temperature.
The Future of Knowledge: Can It Exist Without a Human Mind?
Modern physics tells us that consciousness is what transforms waves of possibility into what we experience as physical reality. Perhaps it is the case that human consciousness plays a similar role in transforming information’s potential for being known into the objective phenomenon that we call knowledge. If so, in a world with machine-based volition, humanity would no longer be the primary consciousness precipitating knowledge out of experience.
If I Only Had a Brain: How AI ‘Thinks’ - The Daily Beast
Perhaps the major limitation of AI can be captured by a single letter: G. While we have AI, we don’t have AGI—artificial general intelligence (sometimes referred to as “strong” or “full” AI). The difference is that AI can excel at a single task or game, but it can’t extrapolate strategies or techniques and apply them to other scenarios or domains—you could probably beat AlphaGo at Tic Tac Toe.
Algorithms might be everywhere, but like us, they’re deeply flawed – Medium
“We need to remember that [AI systems] are made out of software. And we don’t know how to write perfect software … the consequence is that however much we might benefit from these devices …, they may not work exactly the way they were intended to work or the way we expect them to. And the more we rely on [AI systems], the more surprised we may be when they don’t work the way we expect.”
Inside Deep Dreams: How Google Made Its Computers Go Crazy — Backchannel — Medium
We all know that artificial neural nets are computational and have no “minds.” Yet one could not help but intuit that the results were some kind of window into the neural net’s subconscious.
Here’s How Facebook M's Artificial Intelligence Works - BuzzFeed News
I’m very comfortable saying that if we check in a year from now, despite the fact that Facebook and M have the capability of processing hundreds of thousands of requests, they will not have a program that’s on par with a real concierge, because of the complexity of it and the open-endedness of it, and the nuances.
FAQ: All About The New Google RankBrain Algorithm
RankBrain is Google’s name for a machine-learning artificial intelligence system that’s used to help process its search results, as was reported by Bloomberg and also confirmed to us by Google.
