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

in #steemstem6 years ago

Thank you for sharing.

A.I. is definitely making a difference in the way we live our everyday lives.

In the past few years we have seen self-serve checkouts introduced, here where I live in Australia. Whilst we were told that there would be no job loss from this, it’s easy to see how one operator is now Manning six checkouts. And what was originally five check out staff jobs there is normally only one or two people manning the human operated checkouts.

I’m not for or against AI, just making observations.

The issue with a computer making posts on Steemit, is it would only be posting content based on successful content already on the platform. It would not be able to create original material.

Also how is an AI going to calculate us experiencing something new as computers are unable to feel. AI would only comment on feelings humans had already posted on.

As for music and art . We like new and different things . If an AI is looking at what’s successful it would be successful initially but with the lack of humans creating new content it would become obsolete.

Anyways these are just a few of my thoughts on the matter.

Great subject!
Have an awesome day!

Dear @mickvir

Seriously amazing comment. Thank you for being so responsive and sharing your thoughts.

No doubt about it.

And what was originally five check out staff jobs there is normally only one or two people manning the human operated checkouts.

I've experienced similar issue in Singapore at the airport. It's pretty obvious that many people will need to learn new skills in order to offer some value and have job secured.

I'm not worried about AI posting articles. What worries me that AI can analyze articles and be used as a support to build engagement. By posting short comments, but comments related to discussed topic. Comments that look genuine.

I bet most people would not be able to recognize 2-3 sentences in their comment section posted by AI. Wouldn't you agree?

Would you be able to "compete" with users who build their engagement that way? I can forsee this industry (social media) being dominated by those who use AI to support their work. And "regular joe" will have very little chances to gain any traction.

Thank you for your reply @mickvir

I think it's great approach for now. We can't really predict what will be the impact of AI.

The issue with a computer making posts on Steemit, is it would only be posting content based on successful content already on the platform. It would not be able to create original material.

Maybe the successful content could be some ideal to aspire to? Such AI would not directly repeat content that has been already published, but rather create its own content basing on that :)
