RE: AI learns to play Flappy Bird - the impact of machine learning on Steem Blockchain

in #steemstem • 6 years ago

This is a very interesting and thought-provoking post. And very well written, too!

I largely agree with Piotr, in that creating interesting and well-written published works would require a certain level of creativity – which AI does not have now, and which AI is not likely to attain.

AI will make great advances in the coming years, but it's highly unlikely that AI will come close to equalling the reasoning, the sensibility, the understanding, or the creativity of humans.

While AI can beat us in a "word search" of a document and even beat your Flappy Bird score, there are many things that AI will not be able to do. At least, for a long time, and possibly forever.

Take those self-driving cars that Tesla and others are trying to develop. For any driver, there's just too much going on – too much to focus on and too much to be peripherally aware of – for an AI to absorb and process all that info. A human mind can do so, after practicing for months and years, but I seriously doubt that an AI will ever learn to drive. Except on rails, but we already have trains. :-)

As Piotr stated, for many tasks, AI will not replace us, but only become our "assistants." Not our "chaufeurs."

    Hi @majes.tytyty,

    You are right, but.....

    "...... there are many things that AI will not be able to do. At least, for a long time, and possibly forever."

    ......the thing is that we can't say this for sure and there is a 50-50 possibility of AI overtaking us human beings is in the offing. But again not sure when this may happen!

    That's exactly what I mean @marvyinnovation. AI is developing so fast and unexpectedly that even experts can't be sure :)

    Thank you @majes.tytyty! I really appreciate that.

    AI will make great advances in the coming years, but it's highly unlikely that AI will come close to equalling the reasoning, the sensibility, the understanding, or the creativity of humans.

    I generally agree with you. AI is definitely a great tool, but it still lacks of many things that would be crucial to perform things like writing articles or translating complicated content. I think it is a matter whether you believe that AI some day will achieve the level of our brain or not. We can probably develop it endlessly and it will be better and better in performing a function of useful tool, but without any breakthrough AI will not be able to do these things on a human level.

    And nobody can say for sure if this breakthrough will happen :)

      I'm very sorry for such a late reply @majes.tytyty

      I just had a chance to read your comment. Past few days has been quite crazy but I'm finally slowly catching up with work.

      Cheers
      Piotr
