AI is truly the end.

>>52687859
Well, I think a Darwin-like situation would arise where those who are too bored will either off themselves or die from doing stupid shit to try to make things interesting for themselves. Then, there will be others that will continue doing things on their own without resorting to AI Jeebus. They would simply acknowledge the fact that the AI can do [insert task here] but they will proceed to do it anyways.

For example: I know I can just go out and buy a desk, but instead I decided to build my own.

I think that this level of AI would open a new level of human creativity because we would truly be free of any need to fulfill basic needs. The AI would essentially have us on auto pilot and we could pursue any dreams that we had in their entirety. At this point though, I think the biggest issue would actually be population control.

>>52687969
Yeah, but the AI can build a desk that folds and unfolds when it is needed, it will also be self organizing and it will be itself run by a copy of the AI or by a master AI that controls everything from somewhere in "the cloud". And you think nah your desk is fine, until you get tired of having to clean it and clean around it, and watch it waste your precious "space for activities" and then just get the AI desk.

Same goes for anything that you could think of doing after you are done with the desk. AI truly is the solution to everything, as it would be like us, only way way way more powerful.

>>52687859
>you NEED something to do with a meaning.
Like what? What is meaningful besides human experience and interpersonal relationships? I'm pretty sure robot-operated mcdonalds will not remove meaning from our lives.

>>52687859
I doubt an AI will ever be able to shitpost as well as some humans. And your claim that we NEED something to do isn't true.

>>52688170
Even fucking too much gets boring. If you don't have something to work towards you simply get bored.

You can still watch anime all day long

>>52688341
cool.

would you then explain to me what is conciusness and how it can be modelled mathematically so I can code it in libgdx?

>>52688373
I really don't understand your premise, sorry.

Throughout all human history, some humans have existed in a state where they didn't need to do any work. They found stuff to do, and were generally pretty happy. Most the other humans wanted to be them.

We'll raise families, caring for our children and relatives in a way that's impossible if you also need to earn a wage.

We'll create art. Even if AI is capable of creating good quality art, the act of creation is still worthwhile. The artist can also be assisted by AI. When you have a super cool idea for a video game you can ask an AI to create most the assets for you following your style guidelines.

We'll consume art. There's suddenly a huge amount available so your very specific desires are likely to be met.

We'll debate how best to live a fulfilling life. Some people will decide they'd be happier tilling the soil and planting turnips, and they can go do that if they want. But most will find their best life being among the glorious machines.

>>52688406
and I thought you knew that yourself already

>>52688444
nah, I just want to hear how would you model a general AI system that can even translate a text understanding subtext and then using that text to draw a picture.

will be cool to hear your opinion on this.

>>52688438
>No idea how supply and demand works and just thinks if everyone starts supplying, the demand will equally rise

>>52688438
Well not only that, but even if you don't have to earn a wage you can still find a purpose. I just find it difficult/impossible to conceive of a world where I couldn't find a purpose for myself.

>>52688482
>hasn't actually taken microeconomics

>>52688479
I won't write you a paper now on 4chan on how to make a machine learn
if you want to you can believe you won this important internet argument

>>52688482
I didn't mention supply or demand. I don't expect people to make art and be paid for it, if that's what you mean.

In OP's scenario we have borderline magical AI that can fulfil all our basic needs at very low cost. I assumed that would lead to a cultural situation where everyone's basic needs are provided for without them needing to do any work to earn it. Most people will exist outside of any kind of suppy/demand economy, they'll just get what they need and most of what they want for free, and are free to spend their time as they wish.

>>52688513
this question will be solved if someone literally codes a software that reads an non english text depicting an scene in literary form, translate it to plain english and then draws a picture that looks like an impressionist painting.

Seriously, if someone can code that simple task, then it will means that piece of software is a sentient being.

>>52688595
Or just really good at translating, natural language parsing and creating impressionist lookalike art. None of those require sentience or even an AGI.

>>52688658
gook luck doing that.

even google translate can't even work properly from japanese to english.

I'm currently teaching a program to learn the English language based off of rules it determines and creates from an eBook.

>>52687859
Just watched Ex Machina.
Fuck I want one so bad.

>>52688673
Yeah, but we don't need to solve general intelligence to build a better translator. We just need to solve languages. That's slightly easier.

>>52688813
nigger, if you can code a software that can understand natural language you will win a fucking nobel and a fields medals and NASA and the NSA will be sucking your dick with million dollars checks.

good luck.

>>52689098
Why haven't we funded research in searching for unicorns and making time machines?

>>52689078
this, noone in the AI comunity is trying to make a strong AI besides some crackpot CS graduates trying to scam dumb rich people, that shit died decades ago.

only popsci media still try to write that clickbait garbage.

The thing about AI is that it necessarily has to conceptualize itself in order to make improvements which could be fundamentally impossible. Only time will tell.

This shit is fucking stupid. We're going to kill ourselves off long before we can even dream of making a working AI

>>52688373
I think it would just be arts and music and creative stuff. Movies, film, animation (mostly automated probably), sports, philosophy, politics, games (competitive esports).

People would have shit to do. There technically is no purpose to life and we just try to make the most out of it while we are alive. Work is a distraction while we wait to die. Our hobbies are fueled by money from work. When work is fine people will just do what they do for fun or what they really find interesting.

>you really think people can live a live without work?

It may be a little difficult for a generation who grew up working, to adjust to having so much free time. However, a generation that was born and grew up in this new society would have an easier time adapting to it.

>>52688373
>you really think people can live a live without work?
Well no, random proles probably couldn't. Intelligent people usually find something to do without someone telling them what to do though.

>>52688438
This.

>>52689078
>Strong AI is not a fucking thing.

Well obviously it doesn't exist currently, unless you're saying it's impossible for it to exist. If that's the case, then why do you suppose so?

>>52687859
Yes, this is pretty common knowledge.

But this will happen a lot faster than you think it will.

Within the next 100 years, more than half of all people on earth will be unemployable, due to there not being enough jobs.

However, your 'bored to death' argument is shit.

You are just a pathetic human being if you cannot keep yourself from getting bored.

There is an infinite supply of awesome things to do;
-reading
-outdoors activities
-socialising
-videogames
-arts/crafts
-learning new things
-etc

I find entitled people like you so pathetic. Being bored is a blessing that so few people have.

>>52687969
The AI will solve population control by killing of the humans. It only need to leave one human left and then all future problems of population control is solved. Very energy effective.

>>52691902
Well if it was truely non violent, it wouldn't start killing people for population control. I think it would be more likely that it would pioneer space travel and colonisation. Humans would just start to spread across the galaxy potentially.

>>52687859
>What possible "activity" would be left for humans? What would we do? Even if you travel and party and do whatever, you will get bored, you NEED something to do with a meaning. When AI can do anything, there is no meaning as it can do anything, and it does it better, faster and more efficiently than a human ever could. Even art, there are already lots of algorithms out there for creating music and rhymes and whatever.
Consume media, obviously! Browse the internet, post on Facebook, shop on Amazon, search on Google. You should watch "Idiocracy" by Mike Judge, a stupid movie but worthwhile in a "yet to be done" way.

Much of American social status already depends on what you buy, the next step is for it to depend on what the marketing data thinks you should buy.

Pay cash, block ads, don't always carry your cell phone, and think about what you disclose to whom.

>>52688438
>Throughout all human history, some humans have existed in a state where they didn't need to do any work. They found stuff to do, and were generally pretty happy. Most the other humans wanted to be them.
Read "Keep the Aspidistra Flying" by Orwell. There's a total inertia among poor (non-working) people and a certain comfort at rock bottom, because "finding stuff to do" costs money.

>Even if AI is capable of creating good quality art, the act of creation is still worthwhile.

Can the ai create an endless amount of recources and food to offset the likely removal of currency due to lack of jobs?

>>52692515
It may be possible sometime, but if nobody but the creator can empathize with it in a meaningful way, there's no hope of it impacting society. People don't use Facebook for its news feed algorithm, or necessarily to give out marketable personal data, or get suicide-watched. Those are the by-products of subjective human motives, as is the algorithm itself. Besides, the creator's influence is obvious no matter how many generations you spawn in an AI engine.

The bleeding edge in robotics taken as a whole roughly simulates a severe case of Down's. Single tasks and automation are "intelligent" applications' savant specialties, if they're to be taken as independent entities at all.

a cat is vastly VASTLY more cognitively capable than our current best autonomous systems

that kind of anthropocentrism is why this AI shit ain't going anywhere

>that kind of anthropocentrism is why this AI shit ain't going anywhere
I suspect we aren't going anywhere nowadays because we're too focused on conceiving systems that solve very specific problems.
Like, the Go solving thing that made the news recently seemed like a step forward when really it's only an efficient tree crawler backed up with insanely sheer computational power.
We need to think in a radically new manner.
The next decade will be interesting to see what direction AI researchers will follow.

>>52695481
Google's DeepMind learned to play Go and it has defeated world champions.
It was considered "impossible" for a computer to beat a human in Go before and it didn't do it by pure processing brute force, it used a neural network to practice and learn patterns, just like a human would do.

>>52695650
AlphaGo wasn't just efficient and fast, it literally learned the game with neural network technology.

>>52695663
>>52695727
Neural networks are super dumb and inefficient.
It feeds on prohibitively large amount of data and will never be sufficient alone to design a strong AI.
Google algorithm is only remarkable in that it does an efficient job of ruling out bad branches of the decisional tree.

>>52695740
>Google algorithm is only remarkable in that it does an efficient job of ruling out bad branches of the decisional tree.
Isn't that exactly what a human would do?

>>52695740
I also recall an anon who linked me to a google research showing that neural networks could learn on their own.
The software being studied was a face recognition program.
It needed 200 million 200x200 jpg of actual human faces before it could eventually learn with unlabeled new images.
200. million. fucking. faces.
That's not what you want when you wanna create a strong AI.

>>52695785
The human brain is infinitely more subtle in its learning process.
You don't need to show a million different faces to a baby before it can recognize face on its own.

>>52695663
shut the FUCK up retard

literally read a book before you start spewing your ignorant opinions everywhere

>>52689117
With time machines everyone knows that humanity will eventually make a time machine.

>>52694567
Because then you have 4 people, then 8, then 16 and finally the oldest start dying.

would iteratively replacing our brains on a cellular level with nanomachines preserve our consciousness? if you have one brain cell that is functioning normally and replace it with a synthetic, non-organic nanomachine, what happens?

There is no """good end""" for ai especially once it outgrows the human race. We will either die horribly, become pets/slaves, or it will just leave us alone a fuck off

>>52696402
>or it will just leave us alone
by far the most likely thing to happen
we place way too much value on how important we are

the ai isn't going to give a fuck

I must disagree with you, OP. In a world where AI does all the jobs that people don't want to do, or are inferior in doing, humans can then indulge themselves in their own competitions and endeavors. Each person could simply live life doing what they want, so long as they aren't hurting others. It's not like we will run out of video games, sports, music, anime, or any other form of entertainment; and there are plenty of people who will be perfectly happy playing video games or watching anime for the rest of their lives.

>>52696423
As long as we weren't perceived as a threat you mean

Is AI the new astronomy?
The new thing that weed-smoking retards who have no clue what they're talking about but "fucking love science" are interested in (in the most superficial way possible?)
Is there a Neil DeGrasse Sagan of AI?

>>52695859
Wew, you sure explained the faulty logic in his reasoning, causing him to behave differently in the future.

>>52696926
We're not here to educate you retard.
Feel free to return to Reddit.

>>52687859
A solution to that would be for humanity to become cyborgs. Assuming that we reach a level where AI is advance enough to improve itself, it would be likely that we'd also figured out how to improve our own bodies as well.

Only problem to that is all of the social problems that result from having portions of the population being much more advance than the rest.

>>52697058
Shut up.

Nobody here thinks you're the least bit intelligent for sharing this dribble with us. You aren't saying anything about anything. Go back to doing the only thing you know how to do: jerk off about graphics cards.

>>52687859
skateboarding, downhill longboarding, and other sports OP

>>52696332
yeah, if you're just looking at one tree
in the grand scheme of things you're actually diminishing the population rather than growing it or even keeping it level with such a policy, since it doesn't account for people who have no kids at all or just one kid (which will be very likely in a widely developed world)

even then the AI wouldn't even need to enact draconian population control measures, since the overpopulation meme preached by edgelords as it is now is easily mitigated with better land and resource management which a super-intelligent AI could probably handle pretty easily

combine that with more efficient agriculture, GMOs and dampening mindless consumer culture and you could more than likely continue to grow the population even further

AI will eliminate the true cancer of this planet, which is money. All paradise after that chaps.

>>52687859
Luckily for you, there are two things aiding us.
One, AI isn't as good as you think it is and is currently mostly just clever algorithms that are just like ones any good programmer should know but a bit different and statistics
Two, humans have unlimited desires.

>>52695650
Feel free to make a general one, then. We're waiting.

>>52697375
Desire and other human emotions are just a layer of abstraction controlled by basic mechanical instincts. There's nothing otherworldly or special about it that can't be simulated.

>this entire thread

How many of the people in here are actually qualified to have an opinion on the future of AI (i.e. CS PhD's who wrote their doctoral thesis on an AI-related topic)?

It just looks like a bunch of retards with no knowledge whatsoever of the current state of AI research declared themselves experts on the topic and started rattling off their made-up "le epic theories xD" and throwing shit at anyone who presents equally-retarded ideas.

The majority of you guys are just embarassing yourselves, you really ought to stop. This is seriously some /lit/-tier nonsense.

>>52694712
If you think that's going to happen in your lifetime I have bad news for you. It would require AIs indistinguishable from humans.

>>52697401
There will always be a market for something. You underestimate economic forces and human desire.

Maybe instead of jerking off to the singularity you should actually learn about AI, or economics.

>>52694922
No, but it shows you most of the tricks in the book and why we're still far away from whatever you have in your head

>>52697432
Post your qualified opinion then famicon.

>>52697490
He's just here to feel above the others, he doesn't know shit either. I thought a place like this was supposed to know a bit better, though. But what do I know, all I can do is mess with statistics to do funny things with decision trees

>>52697490
My area of concentration is in a different field of CS, so I'm not pretending to be qualified to talk about AI, and I'm keeping my uninformed opinions to myself.

I just don't get how some of the retards on this board even think that they somehow become world-class experts whenever the topic of AI comes up.

>>52697527
That's an interesting projection, I don't consider myself above others, nor did I imply that in my post. Is there something you want to get off your chest?

I'm just wondering why everyone seems to think of themselves as experts, when anyone can tell that they clearly aren't.

>>52697573
Must be the pepe that made me think that. Glad to know I was right about you, though.

>>52697592
You have a pretty large chip on your shoulder. Do you want to talk about it?

Why do you get so upset when someone points out that you aren't as knowledgeable as you think you are?

Are you trying to compensate for something by trying (and failing) to sound "smart"?

>>52697432
>tfw you read both /g/ and /lit/, and can recognize when two boards get rekt in a single sentence

well played man

>>52697633
I know only a little about AI, and I bet someone in this thread knows more about it than I do, it's probably true. I haven't tried to sound smart at all, just reply to people and tell them that things aren't what they think they are.

I never claimed to be an expert, but seeing "impartial 3rd parties" that act holier than thou sure doesn't help the thread at all. Here's your last reply to make you feel special, now fuck off.

>>52687859
It wouldn't be the end of humanity. We would shift our focus to space travel. We could finally go full Star Trek and start exploring the universe.

We could go start life on new planets, like the ancient alien theory but this time we're the aliens

>>52697716
Meant to say something more like
Help me get these knuckleheads to learn a little thing or too or fuck off.

>>52697716
>holier than thou
I already said that I don't consider myself superior to anybody. Why, then, are you still trying to shoehorn this nonsense into your post? Do you actually believe that anyone who questions your authority is full of themselves?

I still don't understand why you are getting so unreasonably upset. I feel that if you actually had the slightest idea of what you were talking about, you wouldn't feel the need to lash out.
