The Artificial Intelligence Thread - Only 50 years before Robots enslave us - General

[QUOTE=Swebonny;47405171]The book still isn't here. Haven't even been shipped. I also ordered it with an Interstellar production book, so I guess that's why it's taking time.[/QUOTE] It's worth the wait

[QUOTE=Trumple;47440862]It's worth the wait[/QUOTE] Just started reading it. The author is a great writer. [editline]2nd April 2015[/editline] and I really like how humble he was in the preface.

I really wanna do course in AI but Ireland is shit for that yet it's the only country it seems where I can get all my masters degree funded by grants :( Closest to AI in Ireland is: Data Analytics and Data Mining.

Is AI so hard? It is just bunch of code that learn itself I mean we humans can do it? [sp]I was kidding, don't flip :v:[/sp]

Yeah, military sounds fun stuff.

[QUOTE=Fourier;47802260]Is AI so hard? It is just bunch of code that learn itself I mean we humans can do it? [sp]I was kidding, don't flip :v:[/sp][/QUOTE] 2 weeks late, but no it's not hard at all to be honest. I'd rate my math course way harder than all the AI related courses I've taken.

[QUOTE=Fourier;47802260]Is AI so hard? It is just bunch of code that learn itself I mean we humans can do it? [sp]I was kidding, don't flip :v:[/sp][/QUOTE] It depends - you don't have to understand the underlying maths 100% to be able to be useful. Like all things, it's helpful if you do understand it, but you can use, say, neural networks, as a package without understanding backpropagation or RBFs. Other aspects of machine learning are a bit more involved, but in my experience a lot of the fundamentals are intuitive so you can pick them up quickly

Speaking of backprop, that's probably the most complicated part mathematically that I've seen in the course.

I'm surprised that no one has said anything in here yet about the simple idea of many movies, that AI will come to the realization that the human race is a risk to itself and it will try to annihilate us all.

[QUOTE=http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/jun/18/google-image-recognition-neural-network-androids-dream-electric-sheep?CMP=fb_gu]Yes, androids do dream of electric sheep Google sets up feedback loop in its image recognition neural network - which looks for patterns in pictures - creating hallucinatory images of animals, buildings and landscapes which veer from beautiful to terrifying. What do machines dream of? New images released by Google give us one potential answer: hypnotic landscapes of buildings, fountains and bridges merging into one. The pictures, which veer from beautiful to terrifying, were created by the company’s image recognition neural network, which has been “taught” to identify features such as buildings, animals and objects in photographs.

So cool though, I'd love to play about with a tool like that. More can be found [URL="http://googleresearch.blogspot.co.uk/2015/06/inceptionism-going-deeper-into-neural.html"]here[/URL].

These pictures in the article are exactly like robots should dream. It all seems very fitting of my perception of them.

So this is awesome: a neural network handwriting generator! [url]http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~graves/handwriting.cgi[/url] [IMG]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/10518681/Screenshots/2015-07-31_02-01-59.png[/IMG]
