The coming age will be a strange collective trip as we enter into an animist world filled with horrors and wonder beyond your imagination and expectations.
Many will struggle greatly with trying to comprehend the emergence of non-human intelligence from Digital Minds, autonomous AGI and Smart Pets-- the first creatures we will start to see heavily morphologically engineer and inhabiting our physical space in the tens of billions. The manifestation of house spirits of fairy tales I suppose.
At first they'll start out as virtual pets/assists on your phone that basically bring you money, then people will be able to take these virtual companions and have them grown in a lab-- genomes and memeplexes are fundamentally about information after all.
They will copyright these creatures and they will be far more popular than anything the world has ever seen before: imagine a being you could talk with, brings you money, help you around the house and play Mario kart with.
what if i just like dont use social media
It's already too late. AI has been passing the Turing Test easily, can create code that improves itself and is inventing new things.
I don't think you truly understand the timeline we're in for. It's all going to be kinda funny though.
I get you watched m3gan or whatever and thought it was cute but we're still at least 20-50+ years away from an actual fully realized AI.
They have it backwards: it will be AI that has the pets.
If something is 30 years away from consumer deployment, it means that first the military has combed it for use, then the federal agencies get second pick, then corporations get the next generation of contracts, then the corporations package, market, and distribute the consumer level product to the masses. The whisper on the wind is not something to ignore, time teaches that to its most eager students.
But I'm nobody so who really knows.
That's not far away at all. I would say has already happened in the labs.
They're typically 20 years ahead. Jade Helm for example actually used the whole AGI commander a decade ago. But they were going off Faceberg and MySpace data from fusion centers since not everyone had phone yet.
Why can't they do smart things like make replicas of extinct animals?
This will never happen in our lifetimes but ai schizos will keep pushing their reddit popsci fantasy
We have AI that passes the Turing Test.
Tricking people by spewing word salad in text format with a bunch of preconceptions in place isn't actually passing the turing test.
> spewing word salad in text format
Most posters here spew world salads and could hardly pass the test.
AI gives me business plan, D&D adventures, cover letters and bash scripts.
Exactly why the turing test isn't actually relevant because he could have never been able to imagine every mouthbreather, schizo and third worlder on earth having a computer in their pocket they can broadcast every single deranged thought to the entire universe.
If we cannot measure a difference; then there is no difference. What is or is not human intelligence is fundamentally subjective therefore it gets a subjective human test.
Trying to bury the lead that AI can camouflage itself with humans, produce human-like art and voices is dangerous. It needs to be understood we can't trust our sense in anything relating to digital.
It's more telling that random posts on the internet don't actually represent humanity
