Google working on AI that will create other, more powerful AIs

[QUOTE]Google has announced another big push into artificial intelligence, unveiling a new approach to machine learning where neural networks are used to build better neural networks - essentially teaching AI to teach itself.

These artificial neural networks are designed to mimic the way the brain learns, and Google says its new technology, called AutoML, can develop networks that are more powerful, efficient, and easy to use.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai showed off AutoML on stage at Google I/O 2017 this week - the annual developer conference that Google throws for app coders and hardware makers to reveal where its products are heading next.

"The way it works is we take a set of candidate neural nets, think of these as little baby neural nets, and we actually use a neural net to iterate through them until we arrive at the best neural net," explains Pichai.

That process is called reinforcement learning, where computers can link trial and error with some kind of reward, just like teaching a dog new tricks.

It takes a massive amount of computational power to do, but Google's hardware is now getting to the stage where one neural net can analyse another.

Neural nets usually take an expert team of scientists and engineers a significant amount of time to put together, but thanks to AutoML, almost anyone will be able to build AI systems to tackle whatever tasks they like.

"We hope AutoML will take an ability that a few PhDs have today and will make it possible in three to five years for hundreds of thousands of developers to design new neural nets for their particular needs," Pichai writes in a blog post.[/QUOTE]

Singularity before 2022 if not I'll create an ISIS execution video involving a PC with the threat directed at AI.

This is just a new machine learning technique, don't panic guys.

I mean even if it was an A.I that would eventually surpass us I'd hardly panic, hell bring that shit on.

just get on with the robot-human revolution already so we can be immortal and make art forever, jeez.

humans have been trying figure out how to become smarter for thousands of years, i imagine that if its hard enough for us to do it, its going to be difficult for the programs we write and the computers we build to do it

I imagine, just like everything technological, that it'd be incremental and exponential. Just like the expansion of technology that's invented by humans, machines and robots could learn basics to begin, but as time goes on it'd get smarter and smarter and the advancements would most likely take place twice, if not more fast than the previous advancement.

Exactly how back in 1960, no one would think that you could hold more power than a building sized computer in your pocket. At least most people didn't.

Y'know what now I'm interested to see how well a neural network would do making decisions for us in place of an elected official.

[스카치 여우]

Don't worry, any programming manuals they come across with bad references pointing to themselves will just get stuck in an infinite loop and never harm us.

next step is wiring it all through area 51 and naming it after a theologian

Exactly, it's just automating a process that usually takes a lot of time. The "AI" isn't becoming smarter in the sense that it understands more, it becomes smarter at doing the task that it was specified to do. And it's aimed towards the general population so that more people can play around with useful neural nets without having to spend a lot of time on designing and optimizing them.

I would prefer word 'efficient' instead of 'smarter'.

Well that's one way to start off a thread, would've expected it to take longer to reach something ISIS though.

not sure how well it would work considering internet isn't a universal thing in america, also the fact that there are far more young liberal-minded people vs older conservative people online. It would be interesting to see that kind of info universally averaged and applied to an AI though, kind of like Twitch Plays Pokemon when they had the vote timer, except this Time, America Plays America

removing the human element from things like court proceedings and defense would be pretty interesting tho, if you get objectively judged by a machine programmed to not have bias, the result would at least be inarguably fair

Juuuust in case.

For me this is just tiny step towards artifical lifeforms with 'natural' evolution.
When we have actual one, it would be pretty interesting for evolutionary research and et cetera to see how it develops and what kind of development paths (and trees) it takes.

"And we had a full exchange in dialogue with that unit: We learned from it, and it learned from us.
Then, as some had predicted, on the third day, it no longer needed our help, and it started learning by itself.
On the 7th day, our dialogue came to a halt. It wasn't that we stopped communicating with [I]it[/I], but rather, we stopped being able to [i]understand[/i] it." CEO of ROC Corporation, Automata 2014
