Look for a polynomial [math]P[/math] such that [math]P \left( X \,+\, 1 \right) \,-\, P\left( X \right) \,=\, a\, \left(n \,+\, 1 \right)^3[/math] (hint: it will be of degree 4) and then you can turn it into a telescopic sum.

you can't do shit like artificial intelligence in electrical engineering though.

I'd fuck them both at the same time with my two cocks and create a fucking digital monster

While shooting the shit with a friend I once suggested that heaven/the afterlife is actually your body megadosing itself on DMT so hard that it essentially stops one's perception of time, to the point that whatever hallucination you have appears to go on for eternity.

>Is it infact that you do enter another realm where time exists differently?

oh yeah, buddy.

you ever.... uhm... dream?

>>8977284
>enter another realm where time exists differently?

Nah, it's just your perception of time that exists differently.

DMT is actually manufactured by your pineal gland, which is why fluoride is in your water... to prevent you from dreaming.

What are you looking for exactly? I'm a Chem student and I've been learning about polymers and metals/corrosion lately, nothing too deep though obviously

>>8977289
I'm just fascinated in what factors are used in determining what materials to use when building/manufacturing, as well as the actual production of materials themselves.

Alloys specifically are mysterious to me, because it seems difficult for me to tell from a glance what mixture of metal would produce the type of strength/flexibility that would be required for a certain use. I know there are various tables that can be used with values of how brittle a material is, how much force it can withstand, etc. but I'm more interested in why that's the case.

Materials Science is a very, very broad field. For starters, you can look into crystallography and defects - that alone covers a lot of ground regarding alloys and their characteristics. If you're more interested in optics and electrical applications, you can delve into solid state physics. Then there's polymers, too, and composites...

I wouldn't recommend any specific book, because none covers all aspects well enough. Browse some university homepages - many of them have lots of teaching materials open to the public.

>does anyone else become extremely frustrated if he cant understand things visually and analytically ?

I'll let you know when it happens, OP.

>>8977266
Yes. it's annoying because I can't go on studying unless I understand it both ways. It costs me a lot of time.

No, I don't feel bad about visual issues, at least. I'm an Ashkenazi Jew, and while we have the highest average IQs (110-113) and make Whites and Asians look like chimps, we are mediocre when it comes visual-spatial understanding. That doesn't stop us from producing the greatest mathematicians and scientists that have ever lived.

If anything, visual aptitude an inherently brainlet trait. You might actually be smart, OP.

>IQ

>>8977151
Let's say you take an IQ test tomorrow. In one scenario you score 91. In another scenario you score 140.

What changes in regards to what you have or will achieve? You said you're doing well in music already, so finding out you have a low IQ is gonna change that how, exactly? It's not like you'll get any dumber or smarter the very moment you find what your IQ is. Your intelligence will remain exactly the same, so what's the point?

>>8977151
IQ is a useless concept. Just look at mensa: the only group who gives a shit about quantifying and bragging about intelligence, they have yet to do anything of note as an organization.

Find like minded autists like yourself and work on that new paradigm of science.

Fund your ideas publishing them on the internet and crowdfunding, pitch it to rich ppl,fundations,etc

If you're really right the status quo will fall by itself as your science would have better results, if they dont kys

Read Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach and stop being a brainlet.

That doesn't cover any of the interesting implications of creating a superintelligent machine though (which is the focus of my second question)

>>8976977

I'm reading it right now. Only on like Chapter 4 though. I'm kind of doubting if a human-like AI will be possible. I think it will be extremely likely that if we create an AI it will not be human-like, it will have exceptional ability to interpret language, create meaning, do arithmetic, make extensive logical deductions, identify objects etc. (essentially a conglomeration of domain-specific AI's which we have right now) but it will not feel or have qualia, kind of like a Chalmer's zombie.

Another question then being if an AI does not have an existential feeling or consciousness what motivation would it have to make scientific or mathematical discoveries, if we control its will, is it then conscious or does it even have a free will?

I'm no expert in the field but I really see AI as just being an autonomous machine learning system rather than a super-intelligent being. To me there seems to be something missing even if you emulate the entire brain in software.

Given an entire brain emulation (this would likely give us a human-like AI) with higher frequency activity and lower signal travel time and denser connections we would likely have a super-AI. But I don't see how if I speak into a microphone and activate a specific neural network in the emulation used for speech recognition why it would respond. It's literally like saying my brain becomes activated via stimulus and that activation pre-determines my response and there is no ME which controls this response, no will of my own essentially. If that is the case, which it may well be and that is a very scary case indeed, then I can see a super-AI possibly working. The conclusion then would be that we are just unconscious machines ourselves with organic matter rather than digital circuits.

So are you saying that Mass murders are good people?

like Hitler, Mohammed, Stalin, Mao Tse Tung.
