The AI Revolution: Road to Superintelligence - Wait But Why PDF: We made a fancy PDF of this post for printing and offline viewing. Buy it here. (Or see a preview.) Note: The reason this post took three weeks to finish is that as I dug into research on Artificial Intelligence, I could not believe what I was reading. It hit me pretty quickly that what’s happening in the world of AI is not just an important topic, but by far THE most important topic for our future. We are on the edge of change comparable to the rise of human life on Earth. — Vernor Vinge What does it feel like to stand here? It seems like a pretty intense place to be standing—but then you have to remember something about what it’s like to stand on a time graph: you can’t see what’s to your right. Which probably feels pretty normal… The Far Future—Coming Soon Imagine taking a time machine back to 1750—a time when the world was in a permanent power outage, long-distance communication meant either yelling loudly or firing a cannon in the air, and all transportation ran on hay. 1. Speed.
Project AIRE -- Projects AIRE Group Projects Tools for collaboration support: We are creating components of software infrastructure capable of supporting interactions among people, spaces and mobile devices on scales ranging from single rooms to inter-continental multi-person collaborations. Software infrastructure for human-centric pervasive computing: Collaboration support is the main target application area where we apply and evaluate our technology. Novel Human-Computer Interfaces: We are developing and evaluating new interfaces for people to interact with their environments. AIRE spaces e21 is our longest-running facility, a conference room instrumented fully with ubiquitous technologies. e21 is a working conference room, used constantly for informal and formal meetings, exploring the use of ubiquitous technologies for meeting support, demonstrations, and vision-based tracking applications. Several Ki/o kiosks have already been installed around the AI Laboratory. Software and hardware components

We have identified three promising technologies to achieve this goal. Accordingly, our research on multiscale systems has three components.

Top notch AI system about as smart as a four-year-old, lacks commonsense Researchers have found that an AI system has an average IQ of a four-year-old child (Image: Shutterstock) Those who saw IBM’s Watson defeat former winners on Jeopardy! in 2011 might be forgiven for thinking that artificially intelligent computer systems are a lot brighter than they are. While Watson was able to cope with the highly stylized questions posed during the quiz, AI systems are still left wanting when it comes to commonsense. To see just how intelligent AI systems are, a team of artificial and natural knowledge researchers at the University of Illinois as Chicago (UIC) subjected ConceptNet 4 to the verbal portions of the Weschsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence Test, which is a standard IQ test for young children. While the UIC researchers found that ConceptNet 4 is on average about as smart as a four-year-old child, the system performed much better at some portions of the test than others. “All of us know a huge number of things,” says Sloan.

McGovern Institute for Brain Research at MIT | McGovern Institute for Brain Research at MIT Meet the man who has been at the forefront of AI innovation for three decades Geoffrey Hinton was in high school when a friend convinced him that the brain worked like a hologram. To create one of those 3D holographic images, you record how countless beams of light bounce off an object and then you store these little bits of information across a vast database. While still in high school, back in 1960s Britain, Hinton was fascinated by the idea that the brain stores memories in much the same way. Rather than keeping them in a single location, it spreads them across its enormous network of neurons. This may seem like a small revelation, but it was a key moment for Hinton -- "I got very excited about that idea," he remembers. For a good three decades, the deep learning movement was an outlier in the world of academia. While studying psychology as an undergrad at Cambridge, Hinton was further inspired by the realisation that scientists didn't really understand the brain. He doesn't have all the answers yet. But a few resolute researchers carried on. He was right.
