Elon Musk, Bill gates and Stephen Hawking all fear the dangerous threats of Artificial Superintelligence and should we all too?
Artificial Superintelligence is any AI that exceeds human levels of intelligence even slightly. However, any self-improving superintelligence is going to be sure to improve a lot very fast indeed. AI that reaches this level would soon be leagues ahead of us. This raises the question of how we can ensure that the ASI goals will still align with our goals even after losing control of it?
ASI is the hypothetical AI that not only mimics or recognizes human intellect and behavior; ASI is when computers become self-conscious and transcend the potential and capability of human intelligence. ASI will be potentially incredibly stronger at anything we do, in addition to replicating the multi-faceted intellect of human beings
ASI would have a greater memory and a faster ability to process and analyse data and stimuli. Also, the decision-making and problem solving capabilities of super intelligent beings would be far superior than those of human beings.
However, it is not easy to code human emotions and creativity. It is something incredibly special and unique.
Grey Walter’s created the world’s first mobile, autonomous robot, nature-inspired 'tortoise'.
Walter built some of the first ever artificial intelligence robots. Together with Turing, their goal was to invent a computer that could trick someone into thinking they were conversing with another person.
Shakey was the first general-purpose mobile robot. It is able to make decisions about its own actions through reasoning of its environment.
Supporters of top-down AI created a supercomputer Deep Blue, which took on world chess champion Garry Kasparov and won.
iRobot, created the first autonomous vacuum cleaner called Roomba that was commercially successful for the home. Over 10 million units was sold all over the world.
BigDog, made by Boston Dynamics, was one of the first robot built to serve as a robotic pack animal in terrain too rough for conventional vehicles. It has never actually seen active service.
PackBot is a bomb disposal robot. It uses user control together with intelligent capabilities such as explosives sniffing to detect bombs. Over 2000 PackBots have been used in Iraq and Afghanistan.
a Google app with speech recognition was made in November 2008. It was a small feature that appeared on the new Apple iPhone.
AI saw a push for humanoid robots in 2010. As new technology meant smaller computers could also pack a bigger punch. This enabled humanoid robots, like the NAO robot, to do things that was impossible for predecessors robots like Shakey.
In 2011, IBM's Watson took on the human brain on US quiz show Jeopardy. Watson had to answer riddles and complex questions which is much harder than chess.
Sophia is the first social humanoid robot ever made. She is now the world’s first robot citizen and the first robot Innovation Ambassador for the United Nations Development Programme.
Facebook's AI created its own language that even researchers could not understand. They dropped the experiment after two AI programs seems to be chatting to each other in a strange language only they understood.
Google AI creates its own 'child' AI that's more advanced than systems built by humans
DeepMind’s AI was able to solve protein structures, which is a huge leap in the AI development.
