The distant future is already on the verge of revolution AI

What is superintelligence, and what of it zhdatPomnite, recently passed the Turing test computer? Let's understand already that superintelligence is what we expect from him and where all of us are all these computer technology.





"We are on the threshold of a technological revolution comparable to the emergence of life on Earth" - Vernor Vinge

And what it is to stand on the threshold of a technological revolution?





It must be so exciting, but remember one important thing: when you're standing on the time graph of the function, you do not see what is on your right. In fact, standing on the threshold of a technological revolution - it's like this:





And the feelings are likely, there is nothing special ...

The distant future will come skoroPredstavte as you go using the time machine in 1750. Time, which is constantly turned off the light, and for communication over long distances requires either scream or shoot a gun into the air, and all the vehicles fueled with hay. So you were there and the first thing is take the guy and bring him back in 2015, driving it to different places and watch his reaction. You can not even imagine what he feels, for the first time seeing the racing on the highway shiny capsule what it is - talk to people who are on the other side of the world, watch a sports match, which takes place in thousands of kilometers away, listen to music performances, written half a century ago. Then we'll give him to play with the magic rectangle, by which it can capture moving images, draw a card with a mysterious blue dot, which indicates its location, see and talk with someone who is on the other side of the world and created many other wonders . And all this before you start to explain to him what the Internet, the international space station, hadron collider, nuclear weapons and general relativity.

All this is not easy to surprise and shocked him, the guy could just die.

But here's the curious thing - if then the same man went back to his 1750 and from feelings of envy decided to surprise someone like we surprised him, and brought a guy from 1500, the one, of course, would be surprised a lot of things, but certainly would not have died. For him, this experience would not be shocking adventure, because although in 1750 and 1500 were different, they were not so different, both in 1750 and 2015. A guy from 1500, of course, would have learned amazing things about space and physics and would have been surprised to how much Europe embraced its imperialist quirks, and he would have to significantly rethink the map of the world. But everyday life - travel, communication and so on. N. Clearly he had not killed.
