Thats "Strong AI"
"Weak AI" is literally the system that makes street lights go out the moment theres enough light in the air
No.
Calculating ballistic trajectories is an intellectual task, is it not?
No.
Does Google's search count?
How about ye olde internet indexes.
Nope.
those are all examples of Weak AI
But they're still AI
Yes.
Kind of.
-><-
Indexes aren't.
Strong AI is an AI that can think, reason, and learn outside its original given parameters
Yes.
basically like Data from Star Trek
General AI
Strong AI is a mystical future that may or may not arise.
exactly, for now its just a concept
Strong AI is alive.
But its development would cause such a massive reorganization of everything we probably can't concieve of what it would imply yet.
There are fundamental limits on what even the strongest strong AI can do.
Yes it's a concept the same way the flying machines, and supersonic flight was a concept, yes.
Have you heard of No Free Lunch?
I know the saying.
It's a theorem.
That strictly limits the kinds of things that you can do.
Okay.
It's not as limiting as it sounds, but it does say there are fundamentally things you cannot do with any learning system.
There's also issues of adapting to the environment.
Like, you can't just take a car up an untamed mountain.
There's no point in AI making art for AI consumers.
no point != impossible
Sure, but it is something that AI isn't going to likely do.
Okay, so you don't think we're going to be turned into paper clips, got it.
ima head off from this convo, its rocket league time 😛
But I'm still not sure what this has to do with Artificial general intelligence, it would fixable enough to do any task a human can do for no ongoing cost.
Have fun.
ty
Let's quit talking about a mystical super strong AI that outpaces anything a human can do.
It's not mystical.
