Top physicist says chatbots are just âglorified tape recordersâ::Leading theoretical physicist Michio Kaku predicts quantum computers are far more important for solving mankindâs problems.
Ok, itâs a best fit line on an n-dimentional matrix querying a graphdb ;)
My only point is that this isnât AGI and too many people still fail to recognize that. Now people are becoming disillusioned with it because theyâre realizing it isnât actually creative. Itâs still still just a fancy comparison engine. Thatâs not not world changing, but itâs also not Data from Star Trek
I get that, but what Iâm saying is that calling deep learning âjust fancy comparison engineâ frames the concept in an unnecessarily pessimistic and sneery way. Itâs more illuminating to look at the considerable mileage that âjust pattern matchingâ yields, not only for the practical engineering applications, but for the cognitive scientist and theoretician.
Furthermore, what constitutes being âactually creativeâ? Consider DeepMindâs AlphaGo Zero model:
Mok Jin-seok, who directs the South Korean national Go team, said the Go world has already been imitating the playing styles of previous versions of AlphaGo and creating new ideas from them, and he is hopeful that new ideas will come out from AlphaGo Zero. Mok also added that general trends in the Go world are now being influenced by AlphaGoâs playing style.
Professional Go players and champions concede that the model developed novel styles and strategies that now influence how humans approach the game. If that canât be considered a true spark of creativity, what can?
